Hi, thanks for an awesome video! I’m using concrete sheets to provide a flat finish.

[@liveinacontainer6602]

How are using concrete sheets? Are you mounting them vertically upon the outside of the container walls?

Have you ever heard of TruLog metal siding? If so any thoughts?

[@liveinacontainer6602]

I have not heard of it until I read your comments. So, I googled it and found that it is a metal siding shaped and styled to look like logs used for a log cabin. Pretty cool. Go for it and let me know how it turns out.
