the shipping container being all metal and not on the ground will act like a big sounding box ,like a guitar body and evry blow you hammer will sound out loud and clear. I would look at the pre fab sheads and set up on the ground to keep noise down. for the cost of a shipping container you can get a nice big well finished shead with windows and doors.

Good day this is my first post. I was in Albuquerque and stopped in at Rob Gunthers shop. He has put a double action air cylinder on his treadle hammer. And it is hooked up to a floor peddle. When not using air the cylinder valves are open so there is no difference when used as a foot operated hammer. The cylinder is between the foot bail and the cross member.
