Does anyone have one or been around one? I am interested in opinions on a setup like this. I found some bed/breakfast in Kerville/Fredericksburg that I might rent just to check them out. I have 2-40'ers that I am considering converting into a home/cabin at the ranch. I like the idea of using 4-40'ers, 16 wide x 80' long. Does anyone know of any good websites, forums etc for a DIY conversion?

They make great cabins

Insulate and put shade roof overhead and you are set

Stays cool in summer and warm in winter

Another set up I have seen is to space them 20' apart and cover with roof trusses, creating a 20x40 open concept down the middle for kitchen and living room. Bedroom and bathrooms along outer walls
