Maine Cabin Masters (2017–…): Season 7, Episode 13 - Camp 'Contee Going Up! - full transcript

We are going
to meet Bryan.

He purchased
a shipping container

and we're going to, uh,
meet him to check it out.

Oh, we've done camps
smaller than this.

We have.
We just haven't done camps
with this

long layout.

One foot, one blade.

We'll need to like,
24 to 30 blades
to do this one.

You know,
it's a good size door.
Didn't sit quite right.

Hey, hey, hey.
Hey.

I can't wait to get over here.



I mean, it's been a while
since we've seen it.

All right.

I'm nervous and excited, all at the same time.
I know.

You've got to be kidding me. Look at this.
I love it.

Exactly what
we asked for.

Chase.
What are we doing in a private

industrial yard,

on a trailer truck?

We are headed to pick up
our next cabin.

Pick up our next cabin.
A new piece of equipment?

Oh, that lumber right there?
Nope. Nope.

Big trees?
No.

An RV?
Railroad car?

Close.



Shipping container.

Shipping container.

Yes, we are going to
meet Bryan.

And Nick and Amanda.

Bryan has owned
a piece of property
up in Sebec for years

always thought
of building something on it.

But with the price
of materials,

now he's kind of thinking
outside the box.

And he purchased
a shipping container

and we're going
to meet him to check it out.

That's really cool,
but there's no wood
in a shipping container.

Yeah, how do you...

We're gonna gnaw through
the sides of that thing?

No demo, right?

Different type of demo,
I guess.

I love it already.

Hey, how's it going?
Hey.

What's up, guys?
Hi, guys.

I guess we've come
to pick up your container.

That is cool.
That thing is big.

That thing looks
a little bit rusty, Chase.

Our stop.
Thanks for the ride, Ben.

Thank you.

What a gentleman.

Hey.
Hi, guys.

Hello.

Welcome to camp.

This is a first.

Yeah.

Hello, my name's
Bryan Barnett.

I've lived here
in Waterville, Maine.

This is my daughter, Amanda,
and her boyfriend, Nick.

We purchased some property up
in Sebec Lake.

Sebec is only
about a hour and a half

from Augusta, Maine,
which is the capital of Maine.

So everything is
pretty convenient,
but you also have

the part of being out
in the woods and enjoying it.

So it's a shipping container
we purchased,

but, as we all know,
the price of everything

is doubled and tripled.

Uh, so we said why not try
to repurpose things
and why not try to

have a unique place
to call home camp.

So what would you like
to see us

do with this container?

I'd like to have
a bathroom in there to use.

We'd like to have

sleeping space, I think.
Private sleeping area?

I think open concept.
Yes.

Yeah.
Sort of like a studio apartment.

Yeah.
But the bathroom be primary.

Okay.
Yeah.

We'd like
a small kitchen.

We don't want to take
from the character of it.

We really would like it
to still kind of have

the shipping
container character.

Maybe just paint it outside.

Clean up the outside.

Yeah.
Uh, how about a deck or anything like that?

A deck would be great.
Rooftop deck.

Oh.
Rooftop deck?

Rooftop deck.
We're close to already done. This is getting easy.

That would be awesome.

That would be...
Yeah, that would be awesome.

Some landscaping,
something eye appealing
as well,

you know, without taking away
the character.

But you'll still know that
it's a shipping container
from the outside.

And you want it to look like
a cabin, kind of,
on the inside.

Yeah.
Yes.

Having a happy medium,
little of both.

Lots of light.

Yes.
Yes.

Lots of windows.
Yeah.

What's your time frame
to get this completed?

We would like,
if possible,

a little bit of summertime
at least left

to enjoy it and be able to...

Kind of have that
towards the end

of summer, fall.
...spend that time.

And how much money do you have
to put into the project?

$60,000.

You know, first step,

get it up to Tom's, where

all the metal fabricating,

you know, figuring out
window openings,
door openings.

How we're going to be able
to frame up everything.

It's gonna be insulated.

We're gonna close in
floors, ceilings, walls,

new windows, bathroom.

You know, small kitchen area
and keep that cabin feel

foundation for it,
access into it.

You know, deck on the roof.

I think, 60,000

is reasonable for what
you want to get done.

That sounds awesome,
right guys?

No key
necessary so...

Yeah, I know.

Thank you.
Have at it,

there it is.
Cabin's all yours.

There we go. See you guys.
Thank you, alright.

See ya.
Thank you.

Wow.

It's a nice kitchen.

Nice bedroom, nice bathroom.

Nice living room.

That's a great door.

Oh, we've done camps
smaller than this.

We have.

We just haven't done camps
with this

long layout.

Bryan, Amanda,
and Nick have $60,000

to put into
this container cabin.

They're looking for

getting this container
set on their property

with a rooftop deck,

main entrance,

bedroom, bathroom,
kitchen area.

And just kind of lightening
the space,

and bringing in the cabin feel
to the inside

and leaving the outside
as industrial as possible.

That's pretty awesome.

Yeah, it's crazy.

Time to do some homework.

Time to do some homework.

How in the heck
are we gonna cut this?

Our saw jaws and stuff
aren't big enough for that.

Tom,
from Mainely Handrails
he's partnering with us.

Take care
of any metal fabricating
we need done.

Oh, cool.
He's got it all figured out.

Dude, he's good.

So it's not
your typical demo day

for the storage container.

We are up to Mainely Handrails
in Fairfield.

And we are going to start,

kind of,
figuring out layout and

a plan for cutting out
the openings for the new doors
and windows.

'Sup, guys?

Hey.
How you doing?

Tom, Archie, and Mike are here

to help get everything
roughed in.

So what's the plan?

So we got the rough openings
for all the windows

and we got the big,
almost 12 foot
slider entrance.

And then we got
two other big windows

with the double arms
on either end of them.

So he said he wanted
a lot of light,

I think we can
accomplish that.

I was really glad that
we showed up
at Tom's shop today

because this is
out of our realm.

You know, we do cabins,

but this is their thing.

Where's the first hole going?
Let's do it.

So I think
the best bet

is to use the cutting wheel
for less

flames in the container
so we can get away
with burning the floor.

If the cutting wheel's
taking too much time,

then we can go to the plasma.

But I'd rather not use
the plasma

if we can get away
with the cutting wheels.

One foot to one blade.

One foot, one blade.
Correct, yeah.

So we got to go up seven.

Right? That's 14.

I don't know I think they're gonna be
We're gonna go 12.

18 inches here though.

This, there's 12 more.

We'll need like
24 to 30 blades
to do this one.

Yeah, cutting
the front door was
a very interesting process.

We went through a pile
of different types of blades.

Grinding blades, demo blades.

Ow.
Yeah, I bet it's hot.

I don't know about this.

This thing didn't work.

I think there was grinders
and all kinds of stuff.

You know,
it was a slow process,

and there's sparks
flying everywhere.

And at one point Dixie, Jedi,
and I are having sparks
coming at each other.

I'd much rather take sawdust.

Just the heat, the burn.

Sawdust doesn't burn
and leave

blisters on the inside of your arms.
Yeah.

At one point I thought
my leg was on fire.

But it wasn't, thankfully.

The back of my neck
was on fire.

I think Ryan's hair
almost caught on fire.

Ah, that's hot.

That's hot.
That's not sawdust.

I had Tom's type
of man glitter

raining down on my bald spot
and it hurt.

Sawdust versus sparks.

I'll take, my take
on man glitter any day.

So where you cut...

Meet in the middle?

Meet in the middle.

You're gonna push and...
I'm gonna push and make it fall in.

Wasn't enjoyable
cutting out the metal.

I was hoping
I wouldn't have to do it.

I would not want
to do that every day.

Put the grinding wheels
on the whiz wheel

it makes a nice clean cut.

We went through
a lot of blades to start off

but that was due
in part to people

driving the blade
all the way through the steel.

If you're able
to hold your depth

and withstand
a little bit of the spark

and you put
just a bit of that blade

just enough of that blade
to cut through that steel,

the blades last a lot longer.
Yeah.

And again you can
follow that line,

you can control it
make a nice clean cut.

What's going on here?

That's a big door.

Cool.

I'm gonna let the guys
work this morning.

And I showed up
just at the right time,

I showed up right as the door
is being let down.

Yeah, honey,
stand back.

There's a 12 foot door coming

and watch how much
light comes in.

It's gonna be awesome.

Those guys got this
all prepped out.

On all three sides
are cut there's like
a 6 inch strip up top.

You know, who knows
what's gonna happen.

If that thing falls
the wrong way, someone could
actually lose a foot.

Come on.

Oh.
Oh.

Hi.
Hi.

Hi, honey.
What's up?

As we soon got here
and I realized there was
a lot cooks in the kitchen.

So I was kind of just,
you know, hanging off
in the back

and then low and behold
the head chef pulled in.

What's going on here?

12 foot door coming

and watch how much
light comes in.

It's gonna be awesome.

Come on.

Oh.
Oh.

Hey.

There it is.
Nice job, boys.

I make a good stage.
Hi, guys.

That's a big door.

Yeah, and now we got
some air in there some light.

Wow.
Nice, that's big.

Not bad for a bunch
of carpenters.

Now that this
first cut is made
and the door is in.

I'm starting to see
the potential.

It's letting
all kinds of light in.

And once you get
some more cuts made

and some more windows in,
it's gonna actually
start to look like a cabin.

So much more light.

Way more light.

And it opens it right up.

Yeah, it looks bigger already.

Next step is to get
the rest of the windows
laid out, marked out.

So they can keep getting cut.

Still in your hands, Tom.

We got it. We can manage.

All right. Well, good job.

I'm gonna try
the new door out.

When we showed up
in the field that day
with the Barnett family

I didn't know what to think.

You know, luckily Chase had
the foresight
to get Tom involved.

He's the best at what he does

and we're pretty darn good
at what we do.

And the two of us
gave me goosebumps.

So we're not in here again

until Tom lets us know
that he's done.

We'll pretty much
get this thing 95% complete

and then move it.

I think we'll wait
on installing

any windows and doors,
but we should be able to

frame up the walls

trim it out, floors, ceilings.

Rough in our electrical,
kitchen cabinets, plumbing.

You know,
it's a shipping container
it's fairly solid,

but we don't want to risk
putting glass into the space.

So Tom is working on
cutting out
the window openings

for the container cabin.

He's got them all cut out.
Just stopping by,

check in see what
the next step is,

make sure he doesn't need
anything on our end.

Knock-knock.

Hey.
Look at all the light.

Yeah. Crazy, huh?
Looks great.

A lot more than
the last time you were here.

That's a huge window.

That gives options
for the bedroom.

Yep.

Window in the bathroom
for ventilation.

Makes all the difference
in the world.

And then, of course,
you guys will

frame that end in down there.
Yeah.

For this other window like this.
Yep.

Great, this is exciting.
This looks good.

Sounds like now that
the window openings
are cut open

he'll kind of figure out
the window trim,

and then he'll give us a shout
when he's ready for us

to come and start insulating
the framing.

Now we're here
at the shipping container.

Beautiful day,
it's time to cut some steel.

So Dixie and I are up here
at Mainely Handrails right now

working on
our shipping container cabin.

Few steps we've got to take
before we can
install any windows

is we've gotta put
a casing around our openings.

We're using this
1.5 inch by 1.5 inch
eighth inch steel.

Just gone a, uh,

weld and tack right onto
the inside
of our window openings.

It's gonna be a stop
for our windows.

Um, and it's gonna
help seal it

and get our

rain deflection up on top
of the window sills.

So, got a bandsaw here.

Got a list
with all our measurements.

We're just gonna prefab
cut all our pieces.

Get everyone out here,
Tom and the boys,

we'll start
tacking them together.

And then once they're
tacked together out here,

we'll take them, we'll be able
to slide them right in place.

And they'll go through
and weld them tight.

It's hot. Real hot.

You touch the steel
without even welding it

and it burns you hands.

Today's not
the ideal day to weld,

but we got them all fabricated
and clamped in place.

The shell of the container

is basically
eighth inch steel.

So we need to weld

something back in
to give that steel

some rigidity.

So we basically took

1.5 inch by 1.5 inch angle,

made, like, a picture frame,

and then we poured them
into our openings that we cut

and Tom's gonna go through
and weld them into place.

It will just give

a place for the windows
to mount

and stop too.

It's definitely
a new thing for us

that we're working on.

I think it's awesome.

I love the durability of it.

I love the mobility of it.

It's just solid
and sturdy, so...

I would take one.

Container's
still here, and all

the interior welding is done.

So we can come in
and start insulating,

framing up walls,

to get electrical,
get plumbing in here

and start getting it ready
to close in.

Sweet.

Dixie, Benny, and I
we're getting
our fourth system in

and ready to go.

Um, what we're doing out here
is we're building our box,

our floor, and our framing.

Uh, we're going with a 2 x 6

so we can run our plumbing
in through.

Give the plumbing
a proper slope

and the proper grade
that it needs.

But it's gonna be a lot easier
doing it out here

and we'll just
roll it right in.

Like a glove.

So today,
we're working on
the container camp.

We received

our insulation late in
the afternoon yesterday.

So we got it out
at first thing this morning.

We put about
4 inches of insulation

in between our framing.

And then we decked it over
with our 1x12 shiplap.

And, uh, overall things
went really smoothly.

So our next step
is to get the walls

and the ceiling framed up.

And we'll wait for the plumber
and the electrician.

Here at the container
things are moving along.

We've got Dougie here, today.

An electrician should be here
a little later on.

Right now, we've got

Sara, Andy, and Josh
they've got grinding wheels,

they are grinding like crazy

getting all
the rust flakes off.

Getting the thing ready
and prepped for paint.

For the exterior
of the container, I chose

a slate gray with white trim,

and then the deck is going
to be a nice natural wood.

I think the container
looks fabulous.

We've never done
a container build before.

It's coming along,
what has been done
looks awesome.

We're back at the Barnett
container cabin today,

and things
are coming along nicely.

Jake got it painted this week.

Jedi, Dixie, and crew have
the back framed in.

There'll be
a nice window opening.

Here's a huge doorway.

There's gonna be
a nice 8 x 20 foot deck.

The spiral staircase
coming up.

Doug and Dixie are finishing
rough in up plumbing
insulating the floor.

Jason Purdet's got us
all roughed in and wired.

And the guys have come
a long ways with insulating

framing out, and working on
all that stuff.

Benny's sided
down there sheathing.

We'll work our way this way

we'll get this thing
ready to hit the road
in a week or two.

We need to do
as much as we can here

'cause it's gonna
keep the cost down.

This a 35 minutes
from our shop.

Sebec's another
two and a half hours up there.

So if we were sending
carpenters up there,

like, to finish
a big majority of this
it's gonna

blow the budget right up.

You know, we can't have
people driving up
two and a half hours away.

Then we have to pay
for room and board,

and it sky rockets the cost.

So we keep everyone down here

get as much as we can

and we go up there
with one or two days
and we just blow it out.

You know, the more we do these

the more efficient
we're gonna be.

We're gonna find out
we can get like 90% done

and then go up there
and finish them off.

Luke, you're still putting
a rooftop deck?

Yeah,
a happy hour tower. Hold on.

It's a happy hour tower.

That's good.

There's gonna be
an upstairs, downstairs.

He's gonna be
a happy hour hero.

For my special project,
I'm making
some collapsible seats.

So it'll be perfect
to pop them up there.

Collapsible what?
Some collapsible chairs.

Oh, nice.

Before it was
a storage container,
and it was really, kind of,

hard to picture it
being a cabin.

And now today
I can see it as a cabin.

You know, I can
start picturing where things
are gonna be

and how I want to decorate it.

Yeah, so this is like
the little hallway.

Yep, there'll be
a 3 foot hallway.

There'll be a barn door right here.
Oh, barn door, cool.

Just to save on space.
Little shower?

Toilet. Vanity.
Toilet.

Neo angle shower.

And then this
is the back bedroom.

And then
that's the back bedroom.

It's a really tight space,

but with the doors
and the windows

it really opens it up
that much more.

It allows for nice breezes
to come through.

It really just allows so much
natural light to come in.

Main focus is gonna be
the exterior.

You know, we'll have
a nice big deck out front.

I mean, you're gonna have
the rooftop deck, and just...

And it's gonna be
sitting there overlooking
the beautiful view.

So the guys
are pretty much
all set in here.

I'm gonna go up
and check out the roof deck,

aka Happy Hour Tower.

Um, brought my chair with me.
Get a little inspiration.

Eventually we will have
a spiral staircase coming up,
and some railings.

But for right now
I'm just gonna

get a little sun.

I definitely need to make
a couple chairs for up here.

I can see this.
I can picture it.

Up in Sebec.

On top of the roof
sunning myself.

I can get into
this Happy Hour Tower.

Prepped
the shipping container.

We're on a roll. We're moving.

We're getting that inside
all sheathed in.

I've got Denny and Andy

chasing me
right around the place.

They're sheathing away

while I'm trying
to get caught up
and get ahead with framing.

Getting the flooring in.

Kitchen cabinets
showed up today

so Dougie's getting
his plumbing run

through the cabinets.

And, yeah,
we're just taking it

a day at a time.

Getting everything done
that we need to do,

in hopes that this thing's
ready for the road.

Ash.

Hi, Nick.

Hi.
How's it going?

I was up there testing out
the Happy Hour Tower

and I realized
what the tower needs
is some chairs.

So this right here
is going to be

our inspiration.

Maybe something
Like a couple chairs up there.

a little more modern.

Yeah, I'm thinking, like,
exactly, like a modern

Adirondack chair.

I brought
the little camping chair

just to kind of show Nick,

but I'm not really looking
for a camping chair.

I need it to be weather-proof,

I don't want it to blow away
so it's got to be
pretty solid,

and just kind of comfortable.

Okay, look,
so just kind of like...

Like a nice long tall back,

and then maybe like a little seat here.
Mmm-hmm.

But I want it to be
all solid wood.

And looks like
you have some...

Yeah.
...porch sheet right here.

So let's get started, I guess.

Yeah, let's do it.

This container
is a unique project for us.

You know, it's a little bit
more modern.

So I figured, let's go ahead
and make a chair
that's not a typical chair.

It's a little bit more modern
out on deck.

Nick, you know,
he just all of a sudden,
he started doing angles...

started doing some cuts.

It was one, two, three,
four boards.

That was it.

Okay. So, that way like that
and then we'll just put
one piece in here.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah. This is going to be awesome.

Get in there!

Seriously, just like that?

There we go.
Got some cool chairs.

This thing's never going
to blow away.

I sat in it and it's actually
really, really,
really comfortable.

You know, it's a little low
to the ground,

but it actually doesn't feel
low to the ground.

It was easy to get in
and out of

and it was comfortable.

So, you know, I'm going
to stain them, add some
accent pillows

and these things are going
to look great on top of
the Happy Hour Tower.

So,
today is moving day.

We are going to load
the container onto a truck,

ship it up to Sebec...

How's it going, Jed?
Good. How are you?

Good.
Excellent.

Today we are
locking everything down,
the container is moving North.

The transportation truck
is here to load it up
and take it up to Sebec.

So we're just getting
the cabinets locked in
and anything locked down

that could move around
on transport.

We're not sure if
this thing is going to shake
and shimmy or not,

so we want to make sure
everything's locked down
properly and go from there.

Tom's travelling with
the container up to Sebec.

It's going to be dropped off

and after today we'll get
a machine in there

to lift it up and set it on
its final spot.

Once it's there,
we'll come up,
reset it on post,

get if off the ground
a little bit,
build our front deck.

Tom and Mainely Handrails
is going to come up,

set the spiral staircase,
build the upper deck.

And then it's just a matter
of installing windows
and doors,

trimming them out,
getting Doug there
to finish off the plumbing

and we're ready
to hand it back.

The container will land
on the shore of Sebec Lake,

Tom will finish up
anything he needs to do

and get it prepped and ready
for us to start again
in a couple of weeks.

You know, the Barnett family
was hoping to be into this
camp by the end of summer,

but unfortunately,
with everything going on,

the windows just kept
getting delayed and...

you know, there's really
nothing we could do about it.

Can't get the camp back
without windows and doors.

So we're kind of just...

you know, waiting for those
to arrive.

It's a great spot.
Beautiful spot.

This is
the big reveal.

Did it make it?
Did it make it?

Oh, look at that!

We're up on Sebec Lake
this morning and the container
has been delivered.

We're just about to open it up
and see that everything
travelled safely.

Yay!
Oh, look at that!

Sweet.
Excellent.

Made it very nice.

Awesome.

Yeah, cabinets
are still on the wall,
that was the biggie.

So, Doug will be here
later today to finish plumbing

so that we can start
getting the bathroom
closed in.

Windows and doors
should be here around
nine o'clock.

We should be able to start...
Hammering away?

Rest of the guys will be here,
hopefully, by the time
the windows are here.

Slap them in, trim them out,
build the deck...

Beautiful.
Close in the bathroom.

I guess we could start...

the back?

Stripping the plywood off.
Right?

Might as well get it all open.

It's coming down today.

No, not coming down,
it's going together.

It's going together
today!

This thing definitely
went down the road
pretty smoothly because

these were still sitting
right on the windowsill.

Yeah, it's finishing
touches day at
the Barnett Camp,

we're got a lot to do.

We're over two hours
away from home, so...

we need to make the most
of the time that
we're up here

and get as much done
as we possibly can

because the next step is,

get Ashley's team in here
to get it prepped and ready

to hand the camp back over
to the Barnett family.

'Open' says me.

Oh, boy. We need some windows.

Oh, what do you think?

That's pretty killer.

Happy Hour Tower!

Today we are building
the rooftop deck.

Tom welded on the brackets,
so it's a matter of setting
the rafters,

decking it over
and then it's a matter of
trimming everything out

and working our way right out.

We're up on
the roof of the container.

Scotty, Beety and I
are working on
the Happy Hour Tower.

Tom had welded in
some brackets, so this was
quick and easy.

Welding brackets
accept 4 x 6 hemlock,

we flagged those in
and now they're putting down
full...

16 foot deck boards.

So when this is done,
we'll put the outside
rim joist over there,

it'll accept the spiral staircase,

on goes the railing
and start happy hour.

What time's happy hour, boys?

You determine
when happy hour is.

Woo!

Windows are here!

Windows.

Yeah!

The guys from Paradigm
showed up with the windows,

so hopefully it's a matter
of just setting them in,
cocking them into place

and screwing them,
locking them into place,
then trimming them out.

Wow. That door
is something else.

Man, that is very nice.

Let the fun begin.

My beard is not fireproof.
I could smell hair burning.

Right now, what we got going
is an inch and three eighths
lip here for our window stops.

We have two windows
that are going to open for us,

one in the bathroom,
one in the bedroom.

These flanges
are just a little bit too big,

so what I'm doing,
I'm grinding these off,
cutting these down a half inch

and that'll allow our windows
to open up.

This is double pane,
soundproof glass.

What?

I wish we had some
double pane, soundproof
glass at our house!

The last time I saw
this container,

it was down south
and it was still a container.

Today it's a lot different.
Today it actually is looking
like a camp.

Wow.

Looking good. Sup?

That's a tight little space.

Pretty much, you can put
a little bed right here.

You know, it will...

Fairly good size bed
right here,

and then, maybe
a little bureau on that end.

That's all that
you really need.

Yeah, the guys have been
working really hard

to turn this container
into a cabin.

They're almost done
and as soon as they are,

my team and I can get in here
and we can start decorating.

I'm just taking
a piece of Z flashing...

turn it into an 'L',

put in a piece of ice
and water over that

so that we can then start
getting prepped and ready
to open up the door

and get that installed.

What would you guys
do without me?

Lost!

So, we're going to want
to slide... Tip it...

Tip the top towards us
and go in that way.

This corner in...
Yeah, now come to me.

Yeah!

Yeah!

We're stuck on the bottom,
that's got to go to you
at the bottom.

Oh, good! Okay.

You know, it's a good-size
door, didn't sit quite right.

Hey, hey, hey!

No, no, no, no!

We are way up north
on Sebec Lake in
Bowerbank, Maine,

and it's been a heck of a day.

Hey, hey, hey!

Good save!

Scary moment with the door.
Luckily, I think Doug
and Ryan,

one of them was standing
behind it and caught it,

but through the window,
I could see the edge
of the counter

and if that had hit... Boom!

It's been a long day
getting them installed,

the last thing we need
is for that window to smash.

Nice job.
Great job, everybody.

Great job.
Great job.

Shut the doors.

We got a ton
of stuff done today,
but not enough.

We got a few things
to do tomorrow,

but I think
if we get here earlier,

the fresh head
will get it done.

After that, when we come
back up, it's gonna be
Ashley's team

giving it a good clean up,
'cause we've made a mess.

And stage it and hand it over.

We're back in Sebec Lake
on Saturday morning.

We didn't quite get
everything done yesterday,

but we did get
everything prepped.

So it should be
a quick and easy day.

ZI, BT, Scottie and I
are gonna bust out this deck.

After the deck's done,
we're gonna put
the spiral staircase in

and go up
to the happy hour tower.

Uh, then it's up to Tom
to get the railings in
and whatnot,

and then it's Ashley's team
after that.

The only goal today
is to finish by happy hour.

Happy hour could come
at 10 AM, it could come
at 2 PM.

Who knows?

When you're doing flooring,
anything with laying stuff
in a pattern,

you don't want cuts lining up.

Most every other one's fine.
You know, with tile,
you wanna stagger them.

So as long as
they're every other one,

just for, um,
structure durability, strength.

She looks
brand new, guys.

She's frosty.

We found another
spiral staircase free
for the taking.

Uh, took out the top
and now it looks brand new.

Another great score
and a great way to get up
to the happy hour tower.

One, two, three.
Yeah, baby.

Yeah! Yeah!

Straighten it up.
Straighten it up.

Grab under it...

Okay.

Dude, I like that.

I think it looks good.

I can't wait to see, you know,
when these guys get
the railing up.

It's gonna be really,
really awesome.

Hey, it took us
another half a day,
but we got it done

and it was worth the time.

I think the whole process
went really well.

It was awesome to see
that our measurements
were pretty close.

And once we oriented
things a little bit,

you know, we kinda
had to get the lay of it
and it all came together.

Happy hour commence.

Happy hour commence.

So we lost a couple of weeks
from the first snowstorm
of the year.

But my design team and I
were able to get up here
and get it ready.

Just have a few more things
to do and this place is ready
to give back.

Oh, yeah.
It looks great in here.

Definitely has the modern feel
which I was going for.

With the container outside,
kinda tie the look together.

Just couple more things
to do and I am ready.

I love this time of year
because the berries are out.

And they add
such a great pop of color.

It's over here.

Oh! I think Chase is here.

Great! You can help me
with my chairs.

Chase!

I need some help
with some chairs.

Oh!
Oh! It's a late fall, icy day.

I know.
Not the best day to be
carrying these chairs in.

Ah!

Can't wait to bring them
up the spiral staircase.

Was this a hard one
to decorate?

Um, not really.

I mean, the distance
kinda added to the difficulty
of it,

but overall,
it's a smaller space.

You know,
so it was kind of fun.

Big change is big changes.
Oh, yeah.

Hey, sit it down.
We'll just slide them across
through that.

Was it a hard one to built?

You betcha.

You go up. I'll pass them up to you.
Okay.

These stairs are pretty cool,
though. I love them.

Oh, yeah.

It definitely doesn't feel
like a container
on the inside.

That's what they wanted.
Feels like a cabin.

You know,
sitting on the deck today,

It's a whole lot different
than it was in the industrial
park at Tom's.

It's a beautiful surroundings.
It's a totally different feel.

And they're definitely
gonna enjoy that deck.

This place came out really cool.
Yeah.

Something totally unique.
I've never done anything
like this.

Nice work.
It definitely feels like a cabin.

The built team
did a great job.

We're almost there, Chase.
Let's go.

Let's do this.

I just can't contain
my excitement.

Get down, now.

Okay. I'm done in here.

Okay. Me, too.

What're you doing?
No fire?

No fire. I'm just playing
pick up sticks.

Are you gonna let them do it
or something?

Yeah.
Okay.

All right. It's ready.

All right.
Let's go meet them.

Ooh!
Do I have the keys? Yeah. Do I have the keys?

So tonight's the night

we're giving the camp back
to the Barnett's.

Yeah, with $60,000 and
a little over three months,

we didn't quite make
the timeline, but the camp
looks great

and we're ready
to give it back.

Great day, for sure.

I can't wait
to get over there.

I'm anxious. It's been a while
since we've seen it.

Here they come.

We definitely left it
in good hands.
That's for sure.

Can't wait.
Yeah.

It's gonna be awesome.

Hi!

Hey, how are you?
Ho, ho, ho!

Good.

Welcome.
Oh my gosh!

Do you see this side?
I don't know.

Happy hour tower.
Yes!

Happy hour tower.
I'm so excited.

I love that color.
It looks so good.

How have you guys been?
Great.

How have you been?
Great.

It feels like it's been
forever. We've been
so excited.

It's been a little longer
than expected, but

it's in place
and it's not in a,

not in the back
of a trucker in a

Industrial park.
Yeah. That's true.

What a beautiful day
for this, too.

Yeah, absolutely.
Yes.

It was pretty hot
that day we first met you.

We got the container
dropped off at Tom's yard.

First thing
was to get the window opening,
door openings cut out.

Got the windows
and doors ordered.

Got it framed up, insulated.

Got the electrician, plumber
in here and then, we started
closing everything in.

So then
we had a fresh coat
of paint put on it.

We moved it up here.

We had a little bit
of weather delays,

but my team eventually,
and I were able to get
in here

and get it finished off.

Well, it definitely
looks like it's well worth
the wait. That's for sure.

Absolutely.
I'm so excited.

All right, well,
we're not gonna
make you wait any longer.

Let's go.
Come in.

All right. Okay.

I am nervous and excited all at the same time.
I know.

Let us get
the doors for you.

There you go.
Oh my word!

Wow!

You've got
to be kidding me.
Look at this.

I love it.
Exactly what we asked for.

This is absolutely amazing.

Wow! You guys
have to see this bathroom.

It is unbelievable.

Look at this.
Oh, wow!

Wow!
Look at this.

I can't believe
they got a bathroom space
this big in here.

This is much bigger
than I thought we could've
ever gotten in here.

I'm not kidding.
Absolutely.

Look at the bedroom
down here.

Oh, wow!
Oh, this is actually a really good size.

Look at the light.
This is much bigger than I thought it would be.

The big size of the windows.

-
Wow! Yeah.
This is such a big space, back here too

with all the light.

Beautifully big.
The window's there.

I really love
having that main bedroom
kind of a

separate sleeping area,
but also kind of open
and still

hear in and being able
to socialize with everyone
while they're there.

I love
the little kitchen area.

Yeah. It's not that small, either.
Check out the windows.

I can't believe the usages
that's here.

Look at that.
It's much bigger than i thought it would be.

Way bigger.
They have captured everything and more.

It's a perfect little--

It's beautiful.
It's a great little sitting
area. I can't believe it.

I still can't believe

the color of this table.
Look at this.

It's her favorite color.

It was really important to us
to try and get that cabin feel
in the interior.

So we used, you know,
a ton of eastern white pine
on the walls and the ceilings.

You can smell it. You can feel it.
Yes.

Lots of lights,
so big windows and doors.

And having you three in there,
it doesn't even look crowded.

You know what the thing
that I find the craziest?

Is we're standing inside a shipping container.
Yeah.

Yeah. It is pretty hard to believe.
I know.

We had this just sitting here
with no purpose.

Yeah.
And now we have a purpose.

I mean,
what other purpose
it's gonna serve, right?

Especially on that tavern
upstairs, I got to see it.

He's dying
to go up there.

Happy hour tower. Let's go.
Yes.

After you.
Thank you.

You're welcome.
Thank you.

So this is probably gonna be
the place I'll be hanging
on the sunny days.

Right?
Yes.

Maybe, maybe cloudy days, too.
We got the spiral staircase.

Oh my word!
Look at this, roof top bar.

I love these chairs.

Perfect view.
The chairs are perfect.

My friend Nick and I
made the chairs.

Them chairs are incredible.
Thank you. I love them.

The design
we came up with and they're
really comfortable.

This a huge area...
Yes, it is.

It really is.
Got some beautiful days.

I couldn't
have imagined that $60,000
would get us

the amount of things
that we have.

Let's go get
this fire started, guys.

All right. Let's go.

Warm up our hands.

Campers can't camp without a fire.
Exactly.

Thank you, Maine Cabin Masters
for creating a space

for my family to come up
and continue to make memories.

You wanted
outdoor living space,

keep the industrial look,
lot of light.

So we got a lot
of glass doors in here.

Private sleeping area,
small bath.

Small kitchen
and living space.

The work's done.
I think the place is yours.

Thank you.
Yeah.

Sir, the keys.

Thank you.
Thank you so much.

You're very welcome. Enjoy it.

Do you wanna light a fire?

Light a fire? Of course, I'd like to light a fire.
Let's go.

We got the property
years ago.

It was something
that we wanted to build on.

And become what we have today,
what they had made us today.

Look at what they gave
to us...

and what my expectations were,

uh, a 110 percent way more
than I could even
have imagined.
