VigilanteTrail azgreg My wife really wants to build one of these at our 10 acre property up in the mountains that we procured right before COVID hit. She is a member of some FB groups or something and regularly sends me “what about this?” pics and what not
candukid I think if done right you can house a lot of people in a small area at minimal cost. Do single people or a couple really need 2000 sq ft? Would get people out of high rent apartments and maybe give them a little extra cash at the end of the month. I really like the idea if them.
azgreg VigilanteTrail Google Tin Can Cabin. This guy built one using 3 20' containers. His is set up that it locks completely up while he's not there.
garyt1957 Typhoon I’d love to do one up in our backyard for the kids to live in More like for the wife to live in
Par4QC They look nice. In pictures. But keep in mind they are very narrow, esp. after putting in insulation and walls. A 1960 mobile home...'trailer' is wider. If you put 2 of them side-side, then we might talk. 👍 Great for what @Eguller would use it for.

I have seen a lot of these built on various shows on TV. They are indeed very unique but most of them spending a lot more than just buying a nicely equipped camper with slideouts or a mobile home. I think some factory build cabins that are delivered to your site are a better buy as well.
azgreg Par4QC That is the way!! He used to have a blog up that documented the entire build. It was an excellent read.
[deleted] There is one under construction just over the border in NH. I don't think you can build one in some areas in Maine.
azgreg Rickochet That Tin Can Cabin guy stated that he didn't save any money over using the typical stick build method.
sdandrea1 Amazon sells a tiny house that looks pretty nice. My first home purchase was a 900 sq ft 2 BR home. 1 bathroom.
Bravopilot Typhoon Ships itself, can't get better than that. Arrange for others to add things inside and it will pay for itself. Even better.😎
