In this video I cover buying A shipping container that I use for my shop, digging and pouring concrete footings and setting the container on the footings, which was….interesting.
I have a full video on the Chinese excavator on my channel as well

I owned 2 sea containers for 10 years. Had to move them. The struggle is real ! I love what they do for me. Store tools, cars, equipment etc.

Need the feeder higher or you'll have a lot of deer, which is cool too, but fewer squirrels! lol. Love your videos.

While I appreciate your patriotism if your going to leave the flag up during hours of darkness it should be lit. They make some good inexpensive solar lights for that purpose. I’m sure you’ll be pouring more footings in the future; Sonotubes would probably save you some work and concrete, I think your depth only needs to be below the frost line. The diagonal measurement is irrelevant when check for square it only needs to be the same in both directions; looks like you got it right in the end. You are one hard working dude that’s for sure.

I actually forgot about putting a light on it at night. I thought about sonotubes but they only had 12” tubes in stock and that seemed to small. I’d do some things different when it comes to forms next time

Hi from the UK these Chinese diggers look pretty good there's a few over hare at a good price point and they have yanmar dissels on the bigger stuff and briggs and Kohler on smaller stuff so good engine's and good prices it's a win win for people who don't use them every day 👍

That’s where they fit in well in the US too. I am very happy with mine, it definitely has its place and capabilities

Did you consider sonotubes? - they would have saved you the hassle of shuttering and a lot of readymix - still your way works and that is the main thing. Best wishes from the uk😊
