The Container Fortress is my dream to create a shipping container home for my family on our acreage in the Southern Highland of NSW Australia.

I hope you enjoy watching our build.

Last week we started creating the first of the Container Sheds. Just by chance we had high wind gusts all weekend, which completely tested all the welds.
Another 35 tons of crushed concrete to help with access and next week the plan is to fit a ridge cap and build some doors.

Dan turns up with a 20t excavator 😳 and cleans over 100 years of reeds and top soil out of the dam, so the RFS (Rural Fire Service) can access water in the case of a bushfire 🔥👌🇦🇺 with their helicopters 🚁

The boys from Hayes Cranes did another top job shifting 2 x 40ft containers into place for the construction of a 4 car garage 👌

Yesterday we took advantage of the heavily funded government (taxpayer) solar panel and battery scheme 👌 hopefully we will never have another power bill in my lifetime 🥳

42kw battery
15kw 3 phase invertor
28 x 475w solar panels
Fingers crossed 🤞that’ll be enough 😂
