About This Video

Hi guys, welcome back aboard Spiffy—our 44ft hurricane-damaged Antares 44 catamaran project. This week I kept grinding away at the last deck cracks and little holes (as much as the weather allowed), but the big excitement was finally getting our new 40ft high-cube shipping container delivered. The whole point is to have a real, insulated, heated space so I can keep building fiberglass parts through winter—plus, it gives us a shot at fitting a proper 4x4 CNC setup without living in total chaos. I walk through why we went 40ft instead of 20ft (not much price difference), why we paid extra for a single-use container (doors, seals, fewer headaches), and why high-cube headroom matters for our plan: a hoist mechanism to get the CNC table up under the ceiling when it’s not in use. Inside, I’m planning an office area (Ava’s domain), a smaller office corner for me, and roughly 24ft of workshop. I also nerd out on 8020 aluminum extrusions for a super stiff CNC frame, test a pivoting leg concept, and ask for your input on foldable/removable legs without introducing wobble. To round out the week, I finally dialed in the miter saw with machinist squares and built a plywood desk for “Sail Life Global HQ.” Next up: windows, framing, insulation, and hopefully spray foam—because steel boxes are condensation magnets.
