More like the Lasso and Shear tools in Photoshop, But I do have a SawZall.

I still want to put the solar collector on the roof of the trailer I'm in before the weather turns. But then I think it's time to move on.

40' insulated aluminum shipping container, $7800 delivered in the local area. Cut the middle 32' out (to qualify for a Recreational trailer license) and pie cut the floor and roof leaving a lip in the wall that can be spot welded after the cut and shut. 1 foot radius on the front with a 6' picture window. 6' pie cuts in back, truncated with a 4' sliding patio door set, with 4' barn doors on 2' 4-bar links that store along the sides but swing back to complete the boattail.

It would be as much space as I have now, but with 8' ceiling and no rotten plywood floor. I going to scout out the dealer tomorrow, but I'd probably have to find work to finance it.
