Default What Ive been doing the past several weeks

typed in rec.crafts.metalworking the following:


Buy 2 of those $1200 cargo containers, spend an additonal grand to
have em moved to your homestead..then set them side by side tightly.
Get out the sawzall and wack away the two common walls for whatever
distance back that you want a BIG area to be. They tend to be 9'
wide..so 2 of them will give you 18' of width. Say you took out 20' of
common wall..that would give you a playground of 18x20', with 2
additonal easy to enclose areas (2x4s and 3/8 plywood) areas of 9x20
times (2) for storage, darkroom, reloading shop, slave quarters..etc
etc.

Easy cargo container has a floor rating of 20,000 lbs (fork lift)..so
I rather suspect you could make a decent enough shop in a pair of them
to make your buddies drool.

You dont scrounge very well..do you?


No, I don't. OTOH, I doubt the City of Arlington would over look
my attempt to create an "InstaShop" in town.
More critically, She wouldn't let me. B-( Win some, lose some,
some are rained out.
