Well the boys are back again for slurry 2022 and nothing straight forward with a police car involved🤔🤔. What happened this time....

Getting few more parts made when I have time. I got Few more done this evening and screwed into place. Few cows jumped on it straight away for a look.

Onto the next part. I’m using copper,plastic and timber for dividing the cows. I marked out the rotary base and drilled holes all very slow work but loads of time to do it.

Great photos there,were they taken outside?

Onto the next part of the palour, the slow parts

Another few pictures looking down through the shed

I did not have a number in mind when I started making it. Only made the circle shape and see after how many will fit. After laying cows around it for a look,taught I would fit 40. Thanks for the photos

Thanks

It’s been a while but plenty time these days. Tank put into place and then I put the rotary into shed to have a look

I just used a front door mat and cut it. I stepped back one part. It looks a bit hairy up close but from a distance it does the job on my farm

Ya Bob had lots of accidents over the last few years but they were never his fault. Ya something definitely going on there with his leg

Got a crew in to spray paint the walls. Floors next to be painted.BOB didn’t like the colour blue and no way would he move outa the way with his chainsaw....so they kept on spraying..

Thanks. The walls are the quick part to do ... It’s the rotary that is going to take the time but I’ve help

Few more walls put up now and have better idea of the layout. Walls put up for the room for the milk tank and another room for the milking machine,compressor etc. BUT there was no doors cut out in the walls that’s ok tho cause we have a man on the farm with a saw ......BOB.

Had to take base of shed out and cut out the circle where the parlour will be going. Leaving base of the shed up on a table in middle of room so I can work on it easier. Time to put up the steel and plan out for everything. With some of the walls up I think I need to add on another bay onto shed. Thanks for looking at this post.

Next part all cut. The small ring is for where they will be eating from.

Thanks

Making base for the rotary parlour,using a router to cut out the round shape I need. Just screwed the router onto a piece of timber. The funnel has to be cut to the right height next

Ya it’s the base for the new rotary parlour

No not for rain water

Got the next part today for making the next part in the shed... but what will it be used for tho...

TRAILING SHOE. Tanks are filling up on the farm so it’s time to get some spread. Farmer decided to invest more money into the farm and the Farmer wanted BOB outa the way while the slurry was going on so he sent him off with one of the tanks to buy a new Trailing Shoe for the tank..............NOT the farmers good mass shoe...

Time to start putting everything back in the layout.farmer has a outside farm with empty sheds so he took over some of the silage gear and parked it up. All he was thinking about now ....will he have get insurance for that farm too....

Steel cut but the wrong piece left standing while the rest is on the ground again....

Steel needs cutting so off he went... All health and safety here on the farm... what can go wrong
