Container Designs



On our way to Science World (or is that Telus World?) we dropped by the Cambie playground and happily found that a drawing we had created a few weeks ago was still up. It's a sectional view of our cargo container designs. I keep joking about putting a container in our backyard someday and converting it into a studio. I'd have an edit suite on one end and a small table set up on the other with lights for photographing models and doing some stop motion. While Gram and Grampy were here on their visit, Milo started to explain about how his would be white and how it would sit next to mine, but not be connected of course. "They would be separate," he said.

In the photo he's adding his button shelf for his new button collection. He's already got plans for the button shelf (seriously, it's on paper) and he's trying to figure out which uncle would be able to offer him the best advice in terms of fabrication. Uncle Gord (the engineer) or Uncle Todd (the carpenter/paramedic). I told him to ask Uncle Todd about the shelf and to ask Uncle Gord about the container conversion.

Gord, I hope you're ready to offer up some structural engineering advice while in town. The snaps of the containers were taken on the same day during our walk.

I can't wait to set mine up - it's gonna' have solar panels and just be rad.
