Here's a shot of the CONEX where my Kioti sleeps at night.

I've used the CONEX for two years now and it has been great. The only problem with it is that it seals too well and I sometimes have condensation problems. Especially after I've parked the tractor with snow on it. I clean the snow off as well as I can, but there are limits to how much it's realistic to brush off. Some day, I'll fabricate a better vent system to let the moisture out.

I also keep my 6 foot snow blower in the CONEX as well as a 3PH hydraulic log splitter and a ton of other stuff. I put a shelf and a frame in the back to take advantage of the CONEX's full hight for storing stuff. Everything fits nice and neatly.

Freaky colors in that photo.

Here's mine but the crooks try and break in every now and then so I doin't leave anything valuable in there other than an implement.

A solar powered fan! That's great. It might be just the ticket.

Thanks.

Is that a high cube?

Highbeam, that's a pretty funny looking Kioti you have there /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

No, it's a standard height 20' long CONEX. The roll bar on the tractor has plenty of clearance.

If there is wind in the area you can get away with a much cheaper passive mushroom vent. Check out the West Marine catalog.

Mine won't fit in a standard box, tried it in my neighbors container, I've gotta go with a HC.

My rollbar hits too. I would need to drop the rollbar to put the tractor in there. Maybe 6" of interference. This is why my implements end up in the very front of the container.
