Qué cubre este vídeo

Mads prepares his property for the arrival of a 44-foot hurricane-damaged catamaran named Spiffy by installing two shipping containers for storage and workspace.0:15 After grading the site with an excavator and laying gravel paths, he accepts delivery of the first container from Dreamer Transport.4:28 To position the container, he uses a 5-ton chain hoist and pressure-treated 6x6 lumber as skids, manually sliding the unit into place to avoid $12,000 in crane fees.7:03 He levels the container by jacking it up and adjusting the support timbers until the structure sits at a 90-degree angle.10:55 To prepare for the relocation of his existing workshop container, he empties its contents into a tool trailer and secures a CNC machine to the floor to prevent shifting during transport on a tilt-bed truck.14:08 He also plans to renovate a concrete bunker on the property by applying a rubberized exterior coating and installing interior insulation to house servers and a 10-gigabit ethernet network.13:08
