Never seen a old fuel tanker used for slurry before like that, clever use certainly some serious litres sat waiting to be spread  , seen smaller ones used as a sprayer bowser mind 

Lots around my neck off the woods a lot of large pig units here use tankers to get slurry sent out long distances for spreading.

Your giving yourself too much space Sean  you need to give more of that attic over to the layout.

Sean your doing a great job on the small details looking great

Looking good Sean some nice detail developing there

Looks good Sean taking shape. Where do you get your trees from

Taking shape nicely Sean

new parlour, new tractors! Who said there's no money in farming!

Looks good nice and tidy work.

Looking good Sean, yep paint can be expensive, I find testers or 5 litre drums of matt emulsion can be good value if you need a fair amount of the one colour.

I've often thought about the soldering route, but wouldn't have the patience. The use of metal always gives a better finish more life like.

Some nice kit there looking forward to seeing the construction underway

All timber what I'm used to did often think about soldering but not steady enough

Thanks. I'm Looking for other model palours to see what other people used for all the little parts etc. must give a look back over yours around what page should I look for it??? Putting in a Dairy Master Rapid Exit palour with I think it's 28/30 cows each side  we'll see what fits 

Here's a few pics of the parlour.

I'll get some fresh images up ID say it's halfway through the topic started it in about may 06 I think

looking good should be a tidy job when all done looking forward to seeing it.

looking good Sean, looks like you had a little snow overnight :-)

Like the drinkers how did you make them or where are they from?

Looking through my last posts I think it's been 11 years! crikey time flies, meant to get back here a few times, but work has been crazy the last few years, not alot of time on my hands.

Hows it going folks it's me again!

Is Killeshandra Farm by any chance located in Cavan? 

Looks good Mark see U still building!

Great bales Sean, Ash tree is lookin well all a round.

Looking great Mark, must get doing a bit more on my layout to soon. Still very cold up there though! too hot in Summer to cold in Winter  \

Just finished doing this video (shameless plug intended of course) 

Not a bad wee item if I may say so, I shot this video last month for zero grazing systems, this is new to this part of the world. We've lots of grass here but the weather is causing havoc at the moment with some farmers feeding their first cut silage since early August! This kit allows them to house the cows over night and feed them on grass as opposed to silage.
