I don't know how, but all of the videos you make are extremely relaxing and motivating at the same time. Thank you for providing us genuine content!!!

This container, which has seen many oceans, has arrived on this land after long years of work. This container would never have imagined that its rusty body, which had been overworked for so long, would have an ending where it could be so well taken care of. The happiest container in the world.

Good to see you get the kids involved, we went through hurricane Andrew in 92' I was like 13 or 14. My father's homeowners insurance company went bankrupt because of the storm, so my dad ended up using up his life savings and his kids to rebuild our house from scratch! At the time I bitched and moaned, but looking back now, I truly appreciate the fact that my parents made us learn what hard work really is and how rewarding it feels when you are done. We learned it all from roofing to laying tiles drywall, etc. RIP Mom and Dad and thanks for teaching us not to be lazy kids.. haha! 🙏 And thank you for sharing this and making me reminisce about my childhood! 👍😊✌️

Good job, the smithing shop can get crowded with scrap metal and pieces that can be used at another time. Clearing it out makes the shop look so much neater & cleaner. I'm the same way. Everything has its place.

miss my father, we used to build stuff, gardening together. good for your kid, they have many videos to remember you, here in your channel

Excellent work Torbjorn! Your children have grown up, I'm glad to see them helping you :)

My entire workshop is in one of these, They're awesome. Love what you did with the roof.

One of the many things I appreciate about this channel is the fact that every project is a quality job, done in a professional way from start to finish. (Obviously, the fact that 1) there are potatoes involved and 2) that Torbjom's children are working side by side with their father just makes it better and better!) Well done!

The wasps will love living under the roof, looks great and I know many people will be jealous of your storage space. Charles

You get a fulfilling feeling on the completion of a project like this one. Nice job man!👍

Cool project - really nice thing! :-) Just one suggestion because of my own bad experience: try to close the gap to the roof with a stainless steel fly screen mesh. It'll prevents wasps and hornets from building nests. They have enough space around and shouldn't use your new storage ;-)

Torbjorn, I love the way you live your life, simple, happy and self sustained. It is so nice to se a life like that with skill and care for family. You surely know what your are doing! A skilled blacksmith, wood worker and handyman as well as a loving father, you are living the dream! I greatly enjoy watching these little snip it’s of your life and would love to be in a similar spot! Keep the videos coming and enjoy everything you do! Sincerely, A learning blacksmith and crafts/handy man.

The best thing he did was raise it up off the ground. When it snows the doors can still be opened.

It''s good that you get your kids involved. You seem like a great dad. Thanks for the video!

Saludos desde Santiago de Chile 🇨🇱.... a todos ...

I enjoy watching these videos of family coming together working together being outdoors building things. One thing I learn watching these videos valuable lesson is to take your time pace myself and enjoy every moment. I have the tendency to get frustrated and want projects completed quickly. Thanks for sharing your story.

Seeing your son in this video so grown up reminded me of how long I've been a subscriber. He was about the age/size of what my son is now when I first ran into your videos and subscribed. Thank you for the great content over the years. This was another great project.

It is incredible the amount of valuable things that a man ends up accumulating and keeping..., and habitually called by his wife as garbage.😃😃😃

That was so cool to watch I love your channel so much, peace and happiness to your family I can't wait for the next installment.

Happy to see you wearing a respirator. There are many unknown surprises that can come from these containers.

Really nice work! Thank you sharing!! You are one of my favorite Blacksmiths/ craftsmen!!

That’s a lot of work, but a very worthwhile result. Well done. I am deeply envious.

I must say seeing the kids out there doing what they can to help out does my heart good and takes me back a long time ago it was fun, as I'm sure you would agree . Nice job on the storage container when you do something it is done correctly no matter the subject first class work . Happy trails

Fabulous! Always such a time saver when you can easily get to tools. In the uk I have several steel sheds that I use for workshops & storage. One issue in our climate is that after frosty night there is so much frozen condensation that it’s like bring in rain when it warms. Insulation helps, but I also like to put cloths over tools to keep them from being rained on. May not be an issue at your latitudes. Thanks for sharing!

Great project to get the kids involved. Crocs! My go to shoe!

Everything is just wonderful in this video! Good luck and good health to you!

You’re hired my friend. See you at the shop in the morning 💪👍🫵

Thanks! Great videography/ editing.

I can’t begin to explain, many of us men know this, how compelling and rewarding this kind of work and video is…. I don’t get to do much of this kind of work anymore, life has changed for me now, but Iam inspired and motivated to find meaningful projects and complete them. Even your son will grow up with this kind of work ethic. Thank you Torbjorn.

Super handy things those shipping containers.... You did a great job adding your detailed eye's touches... Absolutely great!!!

Brother I forgot to watch this video of yours right now I was feeling bored and randomly searching for restoration video and suddenly your video came I was little bit surprised that you make new tools but never restore anything. Please make some restoration video also I and my friend love to watch videos like this. Thanks bro

As always, a pleasure to watch you work. Enjoy the renovated space. I'm sure it will serve you well.

Consider 12v lights off a small solar panel, voltage reg and battery. If you need light at night. Works great in mine. Very nice btw.

Wow, that looks nicer than some houses I've seen! Great job!!

I know the signs! Any project involving cleaning out a shop corner full of scrap means one thing: New Tool! Well I’m looking forward to seeing what tool takes the spot that was previously scrap storage!

Brilliant. Entire video is inspiring. Thank you.

If the Colorado Potato beetle has made it to Sweden, you're welcome. One of our most popular gifts to the world, right up there with the atomic bomb.

Superb! Everything you do is of the utmost quality and care. Well done sir!

Family work! Love this! Better than spending time in front of the TV. God bless!

Salivating from such an acquisition!

Looking good Torbjørn! The container is looking nice as well :)

Buen trabajo y excelente idea, gracias abrazo desde Argentina!!!

I've thought about getting a shipping container and making a workshop. I'd like it to be wider so putting two side by side and removing the middle sides between the two containers would work. I've seen some old mobile homes for sale and thinking that might be more cost effective. Nice to see the kids getting in on the action. When I was a kid nothing was better than helping out with things. Made me feel all grown up and useful.

OMG,i was glad when saw your kids are also helping you,its all your good trainimg of your so kind & obedient kids.I am praying to ALMIGHTY ALLAH SWT to give you more strength & more coordination in between your family.AMEEN.

Awesome job as always! Loved the roof you made

Nice work really poshed it up good, we have 2 bolted together as our machineshop, if I may add a note on the roof, we were taught to put the screws through the high ridges to keep them being exposed to so much water, looks cracking keep up the great content 🙌

Can't believe you did all of that without your crocs in sports mode!! Sign of a true master of the craft. Great work :)

Outstanding revovation of an old shipping container. Can't believe how good it looks now. Bravo!

This dude is legit living a real life Minecraft. Crazy

Cool project! If you want it to stay dry though you need to add some (forced) ventilation.

Brilliant job Torbjorn !!!! I loved watching the progress you were making as well as the systematic steps.

Wholesome ! beautiful work, amazing talent, your family is Blessed !

Nice! My grandpa had two 40’ containers full of his most important not junk :) His didn’t have a roof like yours and boy do they rust out fast if they don’t drain well. Still I suspect you will have condensation (and rust) problems inside without some ventilation. A battery powered LED light by the door with a motion sensor might be a good investment too, you can usually just stick them on the wall. Also a screen door is so nice during mosquito season, but it has to be robust enough at the bottom to keep bigger critters out!

Parabéns pelo excelente trabalho!

I wouldn’t brought my roof out to meet the opening, to give a better weather coverage; a deck stepping up, just a suggestion, can’t beat morel storage, love the ideal and the green house, the property period is beautiful. 👍

What an accomplishment!! You and your kids did a great job sanding and painting the exterior. You did an awesome job on the interior. That is a great looking storage container. I wish I had room on my property to do that!!

The workmanship shown here is exceptional. Really excellent planning, and accurately done! Inspiring.

Como as suas coisas são sempre organizadas esse contêiner ficou show de mais amei..

Those blocks you used to set the container on look like giant Rice Krispies treats (puffed rice breakfast cereal and melted marshmallows mixed together and pressed into bars, very tasty)... and now I want some, lol.

OUTSTANDING. If only I had the space for one!

Not sure if you thought of this, but you can utilize the space between the container and metal sheeting you added by storing thin, long bar stock and stuff like that. I know some of it comes in long lengths, and you should be able to slide materials up and under the roof with the way you made the support rafter on the end thinner. Just a thought I had when I seen the space when you were building it.

Beau travail, beau Conteneur,beau jardin comme d'habitude bravo

Excellent job! Your work is an inspiration.

Hey Torbiorn,Du machst perfekt.Danke

Оу... Отлично получилось... Хороший вариант немного разгрузить мастерскую от материала. Очень интересно наблюдать за Вашей работой. Great job!

Jak tak patrzę na ten dodatkowy dach nad kontenerem to aż się prosi żeby tam było extra piętro nad nim. Ale to taki mój wymyśl. Jak zwykle super.

*Wow that container looks so different now... You are so precise in what you are doing to have it all so perfect... Great to see your two kids helping out too. Just one tip for your son re holding a paintbrush when he does any painting. Get him to hold it more like he would hold a pen, then he will get a smoother flow on any paint job.*

That project looked like fun!

Great conversation. And love the gold and cream drill got one my self. Thay don’t make them like it any more. 😁👍

Love your channel ! However ! Faced with painting a storage container , mini paint rollers come to mind . Once again great channel !

Thank you for not overwhelming the video with annoying music 🥰

Excellent video, Thank you!

Nice work, as always! Might be a good idea to close off the roof though to prevent birds or any other critters from nesting up there.

Great work on this build! Are you planning to put in some type of dehumidification to stop rusting? I love the roof, but if you had extended it by a meter or so you'd have a great work area for a portable bench in the shade.

It's absolutely satsfatory watch you working! Thks for this and good job!!!!

Great looking mancave!

you are aware that you cant have just one container this is the start of a container farm.

Здорово! Молодец! Удачи!!!

superb vid and nice to see the kids and working too. thanks

Wow! You sure transformed the shipping container!

Großartige Arbeit, fehlt nur noch eine bequeme Stufe😉

Brawo- super 👍

nothing better than a cleaner and more organized shop. again you show your attention to detail. nice work! 😁

you are a super person i respect you friend

Good idea on the roof. I see a lot of these containers used and always wonder if that flat roof will become a problem, you solved it!!

How few square meters does it take to produce that many potatoes?

Great video. Nice to see a family project

Thumbs up, man. That looks like a proper result.

Every kid's dream is cleaning something with a water jet.

Ett ord bara !----Förnämligt Ser själv fram emot att se mera videos från dig i hösten

Good stuff! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Torbjörn! Well done! Good to see your kids growing)

As a tip, when making foundations like this, what ever its terrance or small building like this. after you have put the gravel in, pour in some water and pound it firm with peace of log that has board screwed on top as a handle. This way you minimize the droop when foundation firms up and also leave into plans way to jack the thing up and put some shims between in case earth under it is not compressed as it should. Just remember if you cant make it perfect, least make it adjustable. For the container in the video, leaving a gap like that on the roof makes perfect place for little fuck heads like hornets to make nests, so ether have no gap or large gap, where you fit your self to remove it early on. Also while at it, why not to extend the roof outwards and give your self little lip to take cover for small rain? While the flat roof kind works structurally, there should be angle on it, so any snow concentrations will fall off and water will run off on summer, specially important when you screw the sheets from the bottom of the groove where water collects, just begs for the seal to leak. Least he painted and use sealant on any holes drilled.

Here in Belgium 5kg of quality potato is + - 6 euro.

Nice container build ,lots of storage

Love the idea of the pitched roof. I agree with an earlier comment, close in those openings. Learned a lesson also, cut those bevels on the beams using the table saw before installation.

Круто зроблено. Продовжуй і далі свою неймовірну роботу!👍

Given the current price of ply and lumber, the new floor must have doubled the price of the container. 😉

Also LOL! Nice to see someone else wearing "Safety " Crocs ! Thumbs up :-)

Your garden and harvest is magnificent!
