As someone stated a trussed hip roof was put over the whole works. It houses all the power tools, hand tools and spares for this little winery, about the smallest in the stable of the big company. It has power and lights and an office so it functions. Cold in winter however, no heat. Last place I was at we used them for infrequent parts storage. The are indeed pretty water tight and mostly rodent tight, unless it is in a field as that one was and the doors get left open. It looked a lot like what Richard’s does but no lights. I also rented one at a ‘storage’ yard while remodeling our house and it leaked as the roof had rusted out. Probably too many years at sea then the coastal town. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bradford<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> AT <at-bounces@lists.antique-tractor.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Carl Gogol<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, February 12, 2020 12:27 PM<br><b>To:</b> 'Antique Tractor Email Discussion Group' <at@lists.antique-tractor.com><br><b>Subject:</b> [AT] Using shipping containers for tractor storage<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Are there any opinions concerning the use of the modular shipping containers for storage of tools and tractors?
