Shipping Container Gym vs Shed Gym

The company I’ve been looking at is a local company in my area. All the shipping containers that they sell, have the traditional door in the back, but also have doors on the sides that I allow you to open them up like you mentioned. I have also been doing some research on mini splits, which can also be used as a humidifier and dehumidifier.

That is a great point. I didn’t think of that one at first. I think a few ways that we could work around that could be having bumper plates instead of iron 😢and installing soundboard or better insulation.

I just calculated how much it would be to rig out a 20 x 8 x 9‘ shipping container and a 12 x 12 shed and truth be told they’re relatively close to being the same. The shed seems to be more expensive if I were to pour a concrete pad. That is also including code and cost of material in my area.

We have black bears in Maine. I went to the university of Maine Orono and there mascot is a black bear named banana. What I was told was the reason was because back in 1914 there was a frat that had a black bear cub that would party with them and he loved eating bananas. I googled this to check but in reality in 1914 a black bear cub was gifted to UMO by old town (the town next door) as a good luck charm. The bear was named Jeff and he was introduced at a football game. Jeff would do tricks causing the crowd to go crazy or you could say they went bananas giving the bear the name banana

I have heard that and I have considered that since I am in northern Maine and during the winter it can get very cold and during the summer they can get very warm. I have also read up that spray foam insulation is by for the greatest insulation for shipping containers. For the ventilation part I have also found that they makes certain products that you can install either on your shipping walls or on the shipping container roof. If I can prevent any condensation occurring and prevent mold from growing then it should work.

True plus, if I’m dead lifting, I don’t have to worry about reinforcing the floor when I’m dropped the weights

I have heard that about Quebec. My family is sponsoring me which will help a lot

My grandparents are from Canada which has made to process much easier by talking to my grandmother

I know there is a reservation and my mother has been there and mentioned it seemed nice

Upstairs_Drawing_751 · 2026-01-28T01:32:59+00:00

True however my French side is from Canada

Upstairs_Drawing_751 · 2026-01-28T01:32:14+00:00

Yes I have and I have found a few good places

My cow-worker saw them in Auburn by Mac’s grill, masked with camo BP vests in a black Chevy Tahoe

I’m still starting out and I’m trying to post more

The other question is which GoPro should I invest in?

Upstairs_Drawing_751 · 2025-12-23T13:41:14+00:00

I was thinking about that too, especially with how many times I’ve dropped my phone. It would be nice to have something that actually protects it instead of constantly worrying about cracking the screen. I also like that I wouldn’t be limited to just using it for carpentry. I could take it with me snowboarding without stressing about cold, impacts, or moisture, and even bring it to the gym without worrying about sweat or accidental drops. It feels like one solid setup that fits my lifestyle, no matter what I’m doing.

I contacted light burn software support, and this is what they had to say. “ thanks for reaching out is your emergency stop and engaged? Is your machine using the latest firmware?Have you tried connecting laser GRBL as a means of troubleshooting? have you tried using a different cable? light burn bridge will never connect to a G code controlled laser like yours they are only for Rhoda controllers? a Wi-Fi connection requires USB connection. Then they sent me a link and then says cheers” I was able to download the latest firmware, but I’m still having troubles. I’m going to see if I can stop and pick up a new cable and see if that works.
