Thanks! That is what I'm hoping - this forum seemed to be of the more active ones which is why I decided to join here. That and a lot of the projects I've seen posted are very well done.

i'd start with the container trailer, i think rc4wd has a scale 20 and 40 footer or somewhere on ebay i think i saw them as well
got any cad files that you could share? i bet the intricate parts could be 3d printed

RC4WD is currently out of stock unfortunately - I need to make sure the container I get is correctly scaled to match a 40' high cube container as well. There are some other guys making them but the prices are a bit high. We have some very good welders so making our own container isn't out of the question either - I have very good 3D models of our containers. The plan is to 3D print alot of the small intricate parts. I also have a Shapeoko 3 XXL machine at my disposal as well.
