Ah yes who else could it be only the shepherd ..what else would a shepherd be doing on a dairy farm only stealin cattle..the farmers mother held her pitchfork close to a area of the shepherd so he wouldn't move while bob held his chainsaw to the lamb...

the building is coming along nicely brenden the way you bend your cubicles looks good , as for the bracing in your building it is mainly to give strength when building is just a frame to stop wind blowing it out of shape in our buildings it is just in end bays ,you would have another brace going back from middle of second A frame to top of first A frame ,some buildings have them going down the side of the first and last bays , but your walls will do the same job ,hope this helps keep putting the pics up

Thanks..i think i'll take out the middle brace again it just didn't look right..one at each end will do fine for this shed
