Hi all,

Well I only went and done it.... Currently ALL.. my tools, turning tools, and machinary is stuffed into a garage along with assorted stuff from it's owner....
So I bought myself a container and I am mightily impressed (plug coming at the end) I am converting the garage into a workshop and using the container for tool storage. These come flat packed so as to avoid access issues, but retain some good security features. It's taken about 1hr to put together with two people, but is quite weighty... These are also available insulated or with windows (office like) and in 3 colours

Thats Interesting Mark
Was it heavy to manoeuvre around to get into place?
Looking for something similar myself for Tool Storage...
It's definitely not a one man job, mine was down a side ally with a couple of steps... Assembly was easy enough though. They recommend a pannel tote if on flat ground which will make it a lot easier. Good luck....
I used expanda storage, as they were very local I was able to visit prior and chat face to face with my requirements

A great solution Mark. Being a metal container, will you have to mitigate for condensation or is there plenty of ventilation already?
