Live update: 40 ft shipping container workshop
🕑 Added 2025-08-23 16:21:52 +0000 UTCHi guys a quick little live update to go into some more detail about our 40ft shipping container workshop.
A couple of things I forgot to mention:
1) one of the other things we need a CNC for is to cut the sheet goods for the interior of the boat.
2) the plan is to get a second shipping container once we find property and put a roof between the two that spans the width of the catamaran so we can get the boat out of the rain
3) the logical way to approach the refit of Spiffy would be to gut the interior now (to find any hidden damage). We can’t do that because we want to move the boat again. The container workshop will allow me to keep working and making progress this winter. That way we can postpone gutting the boat a little bit.
Any ideas for the layout or other suggestions? :)

I'm sure this has been asked and answered, but just in case--is there a reason why you're not considering a Shaper Origin? Johan (Ran Sailing) has used it for very large pieces, and it takes up very little space when stowed.

What (brand) CNC are you going to purchase?
