Just a quick reminder to all entrants to please use the full entry form as is. Collating all your entries is a big job and this would help make our lives much easier. Thanks in advance.
@BuildnShare I was thinking of turning the containers on an angle but that does give the look of a large space. Is it okay to still do them as 4X10 or would you prefer that they be sized down accordingly? Thanks
@JasonAnthonySterling - I am also planning to do a few containers on an angle. If i remember correctly, in previous challenges, you were able to keep them at the same size. That will need to be checked on, but I am proceeding with the diagonal containers at the same 10x4 size
- although, now that I am in game and looking at it, they do seem huge!
@BuildnShare First off, hello! I've never done any building challenges before but I'm really excited to and yours seem awesome! Secondly, are we allowed to cut off a piece of the container? I'd like to make a diagonal wall on one of mine (just getting rid of the piece that I would remove). Also, are they allowed to intersect each other in a way that removes a piece of one of them?

@hannaht413 - firstly, hello and welcome to Build'n'Share! You need to keep all four walls in place, removing one piece might make the containers weak and/or unstable. Although, you can of course intersect them in any way you would like, as this would add more strength to them.
As for budget, we just thought we'd give you a generous budget for once, this challenge requires a huge amount of creativity and we didn't want to limit that with budgetary constraints

@BuildnShare Hello love! Longtime lurker of this thread and decided to finally give it a go building my own. Quick question, while you said that fences and half walls are allowed, what about columns? Can we have columns supporting containers, or do they need to be on top of other containers? Thank you :)

CHALLENGE #: 72 -Reuse and Recycle @ The Gym

LEVEL: Established (?)
LOT: Gymtastic
LOT COST: 3000
BUILD COST: 192387
TOTAL COST: 195387
LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: http://imgur.com/a/SKou8
ENTRY DETAILS: I packed this lot with numerous meditation areas, fountains, basketball mini court, lots of flowers, plenty of space for eating from the espresso-juice bar, full service change rooms, showers for the sweaty, sauna, spa, espresso-Juice Bar, yoga studio, rock climbing, lots of treadmills, full workout machines, a good sized swimming pool, a small creek for foot dipping & good signage. The back lot has the best scenery with landscaping meant to merge with local terrain. There are plenty of spots to just sit and enjoy the gardens. The first 2 customers seem to enjoy the facility. I think it has everything visitors could want!

@RachelShennan - you can open them up
@BuildnShare The budget is MINUS the cost of the lot? Or is the lot cost free?
Your results are now available here.
- although, now that I am in game and looking at it, they do seem huge!

@JasonAnthonySterling - Wall heights all have to be the same for all containers on the lot, but they can be any height that you wish.
@misscbong - again, containers are allowed to be on an angle at the same 4x10 size.
