BGU Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 MGU wanted a silage clamp so heres one I made out of an old shoe box!! Construction time 2 minutes. Materials used a box, sellotape and stanley knife. MGU is going to paint it - but wants to play with it first!!!!! Master craftsman or what!!! Ricky , F-P, Sparrow legs, Graeme etc watch out! :D : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGU Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 If it's successful I will perhaps try one out of MDF. He saw it on his Tractor Ted DVD and asked for one! Honest : If you would like a detailled construction topic I can do one picture by picture. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallclaas Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Well BGU from small acorns........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 we all know how good you are G but do you really think you can build a silage pit from acorns ? :D seriously kev do an mdf one will last longer & be stronger for mini-bgu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 Just for MJB here he is using his tool kit he had for Christmas and my drill!!! to build a market using Britains metal fencing. We ran out of fencing though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 we all know how good you are G but do you really think you can build a silage pit from acorns ? :D seriously kev do an mdf one will last longer & be stronger for mini-bgu I intend doing an MDF Barn, built loosly along the lines of the Brushwood ones. Rather than cutting slots I was going to use wood dowel pegs?? It's OK doing the barn out of MDF, but painting it or getting some covering to make it look like bricks or a corrugated roof will be the problem. How about signs? Anyone know where I can get these things? I will do a silage pit at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
