Are they soooo bad that you have to lock them in a container???, just don't ship them to me...

Liam, I was thinking of trying to get one of those shipping containers as a garage.
I can only wonder where you got 2 from.
Any ideas where from / price ?
Tks

i bought it as a workshop they were quite expensive though £700 quid and they are about 3 ton each so not easy to move.

I got our from a local place that ship stuff to and from the us. the containers seaworthiness certificate had run out or somthing so the guy was selling them off cheap(ish??). They make fantastic garages though there will easily be enough room to build the car in there and store the donor when stripping it.

Will post pics if anyone is interested

Cardboard egg trays. My old school had them in their music rooms and you can't get much worse than the noise that used to be made there!

cardboard egg platters work excelent as sound insulation cause the soundwaves are not bounced straight back but are rederectioned in a chaos like stucture.
It's a cheap solution that was used in the 60's (i know i'm getting old).

Sorry,did'nt know Zetec had posted the answer allready.
