Interesting appoach!!! I love to follow your build and the final product. My thinking was to build two pass-thru doors. There will be no bellows. This may reduce the complexity of the build and cutting down the noise from the bellows.

Building panels ourselves do have advantage besides cutting cost down, we can incorporate any internal support as needed. Time is an issue along another layer of logitistics. I will keep the option open. I think lots of composite panels come form China, I can build an internal aluminium...

Love to see more close up pics of your pass-thru. I assume you that you use a bellows or something ready-made? TIA

Please share some pics if you have them.

The shipping container box is no GO. I don't need a bigger truck, M1078 is big enough for me. Currently leaning to get a composite box kit or a ready-made box. I do prefer to put it together for myself; the journey is equally rewarding as the destination.

Thanks for the heads up. I will check out the link. :) I love science particularly in R&D, have been making a living using my brain all my life. LOL. WIll be retired from my current position as a Chief Scientific Officer very soon. Damn, I will be lonely. :D

After some serious considerations and looking at my own limitation, I am leaning towards using composite panels. Of course, I still have many questions about how to design the box for our use, particularly how to install a lift for bike and spare tire. Can the Box support the mount or I...

Yes, I will. I will try very hard not to shell out the money to get a box from Total Composite. We will see.

I was planning to add an 18- or 24" extension to the frame and chop off whatever I don't need from the container. Just in a planning stage, adjust as I gain more knowledge. The real concern is the container weight.

Has anyone fitted a 20' container on an M1078? I'm not sure if the container is too heavy after I finish the outfit of the living quarter. Just looking for options. I was thinking to use a communication shelter, but it seems too short. look forward to hearing your input. Thanks.
