What do you think of it? It looks obviously smaller than the britains one but for £6 with a trailer that could be forgotten about

its smaller alright but looks well i'll put up few more photos this week..the farmer plans to park it outside his new house when its built after the shed is finished 2014/2015...........2016

Not been on the forum for a while so it's great to see your shed progressing, I like your story lines, very funny!  

 

May have already been asked but what's the name for the kind of copper you get, looked in B and Q the other day as I was thinking of having a go at some soldering and doing some gates from copper but couldnt see any, not saying I'm copying your gates, just inspired by them!!.

That looks like a real classic outfit Brendan 8) That 3350 really suits that trailer..... if that's part of the silage fleet for 2014 then I can't wait to see you set up and in action next summer ;)

 

All the best for 2014 and keep up the great story lines :) :)...... what's bob and the gang going to get up to next I wonder??? ::) ::)

That be some fleet Brendan 8) What's your plans for the forager?? ::) Looking forward to seeing it and the fleet grow with a couple more classic Deere's and trailer

you'll just have to wait a few more months to see what forager...I was going to buy a jd4055 for the forager but have the 7810 already so we'll see over the next few months...

Got some more timbers cut today to make up next part of the shed

Then i ran them through the router to get to make the shape for the beams

I didn't take any photo's of how i glued them all together for the first 5 bays so here's a photo of how i'm gluing the next 6 bays..i cut all the pieces at the same time so off to glue them  together one at a time..this might help somebody

Still think that those timbers are the most ingenious idea I've seen on a forum. Must get in touch with a friend with a router for a shed I've got planned.

How is access to the other end of the shed and the rest of the farm now as it looks like you have to stretch quite far to reach it all and position machines?
