New cattle shed for 2013


Recommended Posts

This is brilliant, the muck up the walls and around the posts/barrier, the drinkers, the pallet pen with the heat lamp...... All these details make this shed a brilliant bit of modelling to look over. Very good indeed, buddy :)

Don't know what this guy going to do with that chainsaw???do you??

 


Neither do I but I'd be escorting him of the premises, Quickly ;)

Really Great work, The wooden H/I beams are very effective, you can't tell the difference between them and plastic ones :)

Bloody strong arm he's got, watch out! Great topic to follow and crisp photos as well.

Got to farm this morning and bob was still there with his chainsaw..he said he only walked over to look at the farmers bulls and FORGOT that his chainsaw was still turned on and clipped one of the bulls ears..blood everywhere but at least twas only the bulls blood..

The boys moved quick and escorted him out of shed and off the farm..john just happened to be on the phone and rang the police but they said they wouldn't be on til after their lunch. . all that was wrong with the farmer was who would pay for the vet this time. . .(no animals or humans were harmed in the making of this scene)

 Yes i glued them all together first using wood glue and sprayed them red after..i made up a board for keeping them in the right place while i glued them together and that way each bay of shed is the same..photo of board i made up for the job hope this might help..

They take a few hours to do alright..i made up a few boards(i call them jigs) for making barriers to get each one the same shape ..i'll post pictures of them this evening

Looks brilliant it must take you for ever making the feed barriers and making sure they all look similar.
