    a 3 story office made of paper thin steel…what could possibly go wrong?

    • Superfresh says:

      They are shipping containers, often stacked 4 or 5 high on the deck of cargo ships.

      They’re much more sturdy than they look.

    Hot in Summer. Cold in Winter.

  4. CunningLinguist says:

    i bet its hot as fuck in the summer. its not exactly paper thin either.

  5. Phil says:

    they can insulate it. i’d like to see inside.

    Being that I am in Iraq now working out of one of those things, it sucks. Its only getting to about 75 degree’s outside but the metal makes the roof over 100 degrees. Combined with a A/C unit that is clearly not designed for my size of “building” that dies, it just cannot cool down a metal box.

    Likewise when it got really cold in Jan. It just could not heat up.

    Thanks Chive for giving me and my soldier’s smiles each and everyday downrange. 1st Post

      Jason…thank you so much for putting your ass (and other various parts) on the line for us. It means the world to me. Truly. I couldn’t do anything I do…raise my kids, breathe free, work, live, any of it…if it weren’t for folks like you doing your job. I know first hand what it takes out of your whole family. Thank you.

      As for the building…yes I did guess what it was made out of. :) Looks like legos. :) It’d be fun to watch…not so much fun to live…apparently. :(

          • HellHathNoFury says:

            Why don’t you go ask your government for all the things Americans have provided for you? We’ll be picking up your head on one side of the road and your body on the other.

            • iraqi says:

            • HellHathNoFury says:

              Bull. all those things happened to you and yet you’re sitting around on a frivolous website, with internet and a computer even though you say you have no water or fooda dn half your family is dead? We never did anything against you? Ha! your religion says to behead the infidels *non-muslims*
              Not all american females are uneducated dipshits that don’t know politics or history. Although that’s how you want it.

          • aosux says:

            I’m callin bullshit. You’re probably some leftist bastard sittin in San Francisco takin shit. If I ever saw you on the street I would curb check you’re teeth right out of your head for being so disrespectful.

    classic move……it will soon to rust, just like the business

  8. xclusive02 says:

    are those railroad cars?

    • Fuzzybeard2016 says:

      Uh, no. Shipping containers are much smaller than freight cars. Also, shipping containers are designed to interlock; freight cars, not so much…

  9. Mark says:

    They built one of these in Phoenix. used 1 inch of insulating foam on the inside, so probably not too hot.

  10. jeff in Australia says:

    Love the imagination used here… is this called thinking inside the box..?

  11. dlq says:

    wouldnt want to find out my office was made of these during a lightning storm!

  12. Irwin109 says:

    Part of our college was made like this…

  13. Dingo says:

  14. Gonz says:
