Attachment storage

[Rcsask]

Hi we recently bought a acreage that has a 40 foot sea can on it and i was thinking about put a lean too on the one side to put my 3 point attachments under to keep out of the weather. Has anyone done anything like this?

Should be easy because it's just posts plus a roof structure. There are plenty of images of these lean tos if you do an internet search for "sea container lean to."

Some get a second container that they set maybe 20-30 feet from the first one. Then put roof trusses spanning over both containers as a roof leaving the center area open.

The lean to would be easier.

I built a small, 12 t x 16 ft lean to attached to one of my sheds and built shelves in it for my implements. I also hung tarps that I can roll up to keep the weather out. I have a small subcompact tractor that also fits inside.

Now that's what I need. My implements are starting multiply and taking up too much space.

I store attachments using this rule of thumb. If it has moving parts - under cover. No moving parts - out in the orchard on pallets.

So - tractor, grapple, rear blade & chipper - under cover. Moldboard plow, LPGS, ROBB, bucket & disk harrow - out on pallets.

So far all I have is pallet forks and a rear blade with hydraulic angle. Buying in spring a rototiller and brush cut mower. Just think more storage under a roof is better. Also may be easier to hide new attachments from the ol lady this way too lol.

The saskatchewan frost line depth is about six feet (if google is correct).

U might check to see that the sea container is sitting on piers otherwise it may move around during the winter/summer cycles causing havoc with your lean-to.

PTO shafts need to be kept well lubricated and best kept out of the weather. If they rust up, it can be very difficult to get them separated again. Diddo for any kind of chain drive on a tiller.

It isn't on any piers so it could move a little can't see it being to much but it can move. How is everyone attaching there header on the roof of the c can?
