by far the best shipping container home I've come across on youtube absolutely mint work brother .

I'm an Architect from Central America. You bring the phrase, "Do it your self", to another level!

For me, this is the most inspiring KZfaq channel ever. Thank you for posting!

Love these videos. I’m 77 and he does all of the “stuff” I wish I still had the energy to do. I never really had the time or money and now I have both so I live vicariously thru these . Please keep them coming. Would like to see some more on rocks and perhaps stone wall building. Tom H

Pay close attention everyone, this is an example of how legends are made.

Andrew Camareta's video blogg beats many of the national TV crap programmes they dish to the public. Andrew's is interesting, practical and contributing to every day work plus dreams. The message I see is " it can be done". Stay Blessed Andrew... 🙏👍😎

Im a welder by trade and i just bought land in the high desert. You have inspired me!

Man this was cool. You exemplify the people who built America and the can do spirit that made our country great. Really admire you.

Nothing to add about your exeptional skills, they are outstanding but the pure pleasure of watching your progress with the orchestral backing especially Deme Bene Bagisla, amazing.

Wow! The place where this is located is amazing. That last aerial drone footage...wowza! These are some very fortunate people. Being able to live in a place like that, plus being able to build a cool castle too. That is a life well worth living.

I don't know you and you don't know me, but I'm proud of you for all that you've done and have accomplished.

I am 16 now and building materials for homes or any large structures is becoming extremely expensive you really inspire me to when I get older do similar thing you have done with a shipping container home! you really do incredibles things! Thanks for inspiring me!

All your videos are great, but this one is special. I'm grateful you take the time and energy away from an already BUSY LIFE to share these things with us.

It took a tremendous amount of time and effort to share this with us and I really appreciate the work you've carved out of the hillside to call your own. Great vision and imagination. I wish I could be there to help you!

I don’t know where you came up with the finances for materials and heavy equipment when you could be spending it on drugs and hot cars. Instead, you’re building a landmark that will survive indefinitely. My hats off for your work ethics and ingenuity!!! 🇺🇸

excellent job young man, I am envious, I'm an old man now, if only I could have seen my dreams to fruition.

I've always enjoyed running boom lifts. I guess there one of the only pieces of heavy equipment I've run a lot so that's not saying much. My grandfather had a bunch of gradall's and other equipment and he had a lot for it all. I never really knew what he did with it. Your channel has me wanting to buy my own property and get into excavation.

You build in real life what most people build on minecraft. Awesome job!

damn dude. I am surprised the crane was able to hold you, your trailer, and your massive steel balls at the same time!

Holy Crap!! This MAN just built his own Castle! Now he’s King of the Mountain! No joke! Andrew you have amazing vision and ambition! Amazing just amazing. I can’t stop watching your videos! Lot of work and a lot of effort to just film it! The drone is the bomb! Upstate is beautiful and free, as in freedom to do anything you can dream of! Best wishes for the future.

ANDREW YOU'RE DEFINITELY BLESSED WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE AND TALENT, AND THE ABILITY TO PUT IT TO GOOD USE, THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR THOUGHTS AND ACTIVITIES.

I had to subscribe, after seeing you use a utility trailer as a crane basket. You are one dedicated hardworking SOB.

The video reached levels of Camarata I didn't even know were possible. The trailer lift was impressive and then the skidsteer bucket to haul concrete and blocks. . . This guy is genius. Easy to go out and buy stuff but to make it yourself is a dying art.

Andrew, you know why i love watching your videos, it because you are a fun guy and you have a lot of toys

Andrew you honestly have the best helper in the world and that's your wife . That's cool to have a person who's your best friend , your Wife helping you build your castle 🏰. Two thumbs up 👍 to your wife .

The nation needs more young people like you. Hard worker dreamer thinker builder doer. This nation was built with the hands of your kind. The only thing your lacking is a aprintus.

Wow!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Awesome!! I have always been fascinated with towers and films of that era. When I build my Container home... its gonna have a towet!!!🤗😍🇹🇹 Thank you for your contribution! 👑😉

Your wife is one of a kind , you were made for each other ! I watch all your videos and would like to see inside your castle . Thanks you Andrew ****

“I have a crane, and I’ve got an idea”. Made my day.

I thought that looked like upstate NY I am in Northern Ontario on 100 acres, you gave me some great ideas! Great work, appreciated watching the whole video. Kudos to you sir!

Holy shit, you are insane. 100 years from now they're going to be giving tours of your container castle. It is just incredible the problems you are able to solve by thinking way out of the box. I started watching your vids a couple of years ago because of the jet skis, but now I am hooked by the ingenuity and gumption you display in every vid.

I am speechless. Never in my wildest dream would I have considered that any one man with exception to your wife and one verey part time helper ever build such a phenomenon... Put that on your job resume!!! There are no words to do it justice

Watching this guy makes me realize how lazy I am.

this is just awesome. i was here earlier today wondering when you were gonna post another vid on the castle. you made my night. YOUR A BEAST! NICE JOB!

A man's home is his castle and you literally built your own, congrats on your accomplishments you sir built a dream, your own castle wow. I have been watching your videos and starting from nothing to where today, live long and prosper, good luck in all you do.

LOVE the idea of the plank holding the piece on to be welded! Clever thinking !

the stairway and rails look incredible. lots of work man. love it. incredible amount of work.

Childish dreams with adult knowledge to make it happen. Anyone saying they don't want a castle of their own would be lying. I'd fill mine with secret doors and rooms too, as a homage to my childhood dreams.

It’s 2:30 a m but I can’t stop watching this genius at work impossible. Impossible to do it all but he’s doing it

Seriously, I wish he was my neighbor. Seems like a down to earth nice person that can teach a lot of things. Really nice container home build

Necessity is the mother of invention! Awesome work, but stay safe, we all want to see more.

I admire your abilities, creativity and persistence.

Andrew, you are the Honey Badger of metal construction. Don't care. Git-R-Done. And your wife backing you is awesome. Love it.

Mr. Camarata, you are the most ingenious and hardest working man I have ever seen. My hat off to you, Sir.

Bravo Sir. It looks great. A fine example of what the trades can do. So cool.

It's just a joy to watch you guys build this up. A real American castle. Keep it up. Thank you for sharing.

This guy is a true inspiration, I can't get enough of his videos! Talk about a "Jack of all Trades"!

Man is sitting in a little trailer held by his crane and he’s doing his welding work. Legend. How he works

Geez, you would think if someone was going to do all that work they would pick a location that had a decent view. . . Wow brother, beautiful location, and an awesome castle!!! Well done!

Dude that's awesome! Best shipping container house I've seen yet..................

I have a daughter, who is a construction site superintendent, and she never stops moving just like you, go go go!

Something tells me when you were a little boy somebody told you that you could not do something.I have always found my best motivation comes from being told I can't do something.With family and friends I built my first two story home at age 25 with stick lumber.Took me thirty night digging out the footer after constant rains to get the footings in.Another 2.5 years to build working a full time business and working multiple second jobs.Now at 65 I am developing a piece of property with a bx 23s Kubota and a 1963 case 310- f dozer that I have refurbished.This time it will be a modular ranch to stay on one level and a 30x40 workshop.I just found your channel the other day.I want to thank you for motivating me to continue on.I work alone most times and see that you do also.Many times people can be helpful, but most just slow you down by asking why!Greet job Andy. My oldest of three son's is named Andrew.Great job!!!

dude, your amazing... living the dream of the kid in all of us!

You are one seriously talented dude. Fantastic job. But then, anyone could do it with all the help you had. LOL. Best of luck.

Great looking start. You need to be cloned because the mold was broken when Andrew Camarata was made, but the world needs more hard-working young men like you. What an inspiration.

To see someone your age with this kind of self determination, work ethic and skill, gives one hope! This was an amazing project and to see you do it almost all by yourself, just blows me away.. Very well done.

why on earth anyone would give this a thumbs down I couldnt even guess. I do have similar skillsets, but wow with the investment and free time to do it. If I had the means to do something like this it would be a blessing from God. Great work sir!!

Jesus Its amazing what a man can do with effort, and no wife and kids. Subscribed as i'm blown away with what you've done with this place.

What's most amazing is his ability to troubleshoot any problem that comes along and maximize all resources available to him to solve them. Whenever he says "I have an idea" means he's found a solution. Amazing.

Quickly becoming my favorite KZfaq channel.

this is so cool, a great space indeed. your a Jack of all trades I suppose.

This is epic! I want to get some land out there and build a castle like this for my hunting getaway trips! Well done mate! So awesome

Andrew I have been subscribed for a couple months now and watching you has given me the fact that I can do anything I dream of with a little bit of drive and ingenuity to get by with what I don’t have.

This is the most industrious guy on the planet! He has so many different talents and works like a horse the kind that built America!!

An engineer by heart, soul, mind and work quality. Great Inspirational video !

How could 547 peeps not like this .....simply amazing.....

Hey Andrew, how about adding a zipline to that tower for quick exits....lol.

This is one off the best sites on KZfaq, seams to be very respectful lad hopefully will be putting more videos on about his container home workshop's well done Andrew 10 out of 10

Have nothing of any real consequence to say or add. Just subbed and wanted to say I respect and admire you. Thanks for taking the time to video and share your build Andrew. Regards from Oz.

Pretty cool and it only took you a little over 18 minutes to complete! Nice work!

A lot of people build their dream homes or "compound", almost all of them with massive help from other people. There are compounds that cost $100 Million or more, but this one is arguably the greatest I've ever seen because 1) You designed it and built it yourself from scratch. 2) You probably did it on a budget (bargain for what you actually accomplished). 3) That lot/parcel and natural setting is simply amazing, and you seemingly made the best possible use of it. Those rock formations are simply amazing. And you built a man made fortress into a natural fortress. Well done.

Why am I just now finding this page you sir have just sparked a new dream for me to do once I graduate this spring. Keep up this amazing work!

Just when I was thinking that younger generations are not creative builders or craftsman you blow that thought away. You work extremely hard and are very talented. Seams like you have an understanding girlfriend that works with you which is beautiful...appreciate that and hold her close ask her about her dreams. I hope you accept my compliments even though I buy trucks which are more than $40k...

Ive been waiting on a update on the castle, thanks..

When I had a 17 ton Terex boom truck, it had a wireless remote control, you wore the unit on your waist. It didn't interfere with wearing a nail belt, and I built my entire 40' by 60' shop myself, quite easily. The German made remote cast 14 K though! You can pick those old Pettibones up for about that, and any crane is better then no crane. Nowadays I operate a 30 ton National with a heated and air conditioned cab, with SAT radio, and 110' of main boom, life is sweet! Good work Andrew!

Young man you had my heart in my throat when you set that flag !! I'm beyond impressed . I just retired and am about to begin the projects that I've had on my mind for many years . I'm old but indeed motivated . I commend you . Best wishes .

Andrew, you just make my jaw drop dude; you’re so creative and innovative 👍

You are a very talented person, nice job.

My very 1st video of yours I watched. Ever since then...I've been hooked on your channel. A 1 man wrecking crew. You are definitely a man of all trades. **respect!!!

This young man is a pure beast!! I actually got goose bumps when he placed the American flag on top of his castle!

This man is a national treasure.

Nice set up man. The U.S flag was the topper on it

Im a 62 yrs old pilipino senior citizen. To be honest i dont know anything about what youre doing but.. im learning! 😆😆😆 One thing i noticed as a mom was you keep every job cleaning up that i love so much. Congratulations 🤗

Okay Andrew. Now you’ve gone and done it. This is probably my 2nd favorite video. There are not enough words to express the appreciation of seeing you build this for yourself.

Your a freakin bad ass dude brother..Merica!

Your castle!!!! I envy you for your possibilities how build your own home ... here in germany it's a Bit more reglemented... habe fun and enjoy it !!!! Greeting from Koblenz 😎

I've wanted to build a shipping container home for years. A tower is a great idea. I'm gonna have to binge this channel for ideas.

With incredible creativity and skill, I cannot describe in words how skilled and creative you are.

I am diggin' this channel like it ain't nobody's business. I'm inspired to go and make something....think I'll make some popcorn....and fire up another vid.

My favorite sentence of all time "but I have a crane so I have an idea"

Coming back to this video is crazy seeing how much you have accomplished!!

I finally saw how you constructed your castle. I like it!! Fantastic job you are your friends helped you out!!

i think that wins the internet - forever !

START A VINEYARD FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!WHAT A WONDERFUL PIAZZA FOR WINETASTINGS WITH THAT VISTA!!GLADDING THE CONTAINERS WITH STONE MIGHT BE A GREAT IDEA WITH ALL OF THE CLIFFSIDE ACCESS TO NATURAL STONE MATERIAL!! LOVE YOUR IDEAS!

I absolutely love your home, castle, fortress. You are very talented young man.

I have missed most of these videos. Backing up a bit.. "OUTSTANDING"!!..

Finally, someone that was able to use shipping containers and NOT use them in such a way they are doomed to collapse or fall in on themselves. Nice job.... Not only did you use the design strength of the containers properly but added support to the weak links.... Those who have not worked around containers, pay attention... this was done correctly. Love the work ethic, not seen to often in the younger folks these days. (I purchased a built in 1931 2500 sqft home for $40k. Most the cost was the land it was on... I spent 363 days working on it and had it appraised to get a loan for a garage....Just the house appraised for $235K and I paid cash for everything to that point..... YOU all can do it if you just try}

Dude, you inspired me to build something (smaller scale) like this. Can you provide us with a cost analysis (nothing fancy) between the container castle build up vs. a concrete build up of the same dimensions, I am sure we (your followers) are curious. Thanks, and great job man, very inspirational, you are living the life.

I just love your castle brother, dam good job! I love it today with the steel roof on it, plain genius brother! That’s a dream come true, who wouldn’t want that! I love your whole place and how it’s set up from your rock patios to the cool hot tub! Very nice place and very well planned out brother! You’re the Master! lol it’s all very nice Andrew! I just wanted to let you know that I’m loving your videos! I’m one big fan of your skills! 👌🏻✌🏻🙂

Wow.... you are literally the king of your own castle!👍🏻😀
