The ladders and platform are made with plastruct. The slurry jetter is made from bendy straws sprayed silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smallclaas Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Had a look around the yard this evening to see where to kick off, last sheds I was working on were the calf shed and the suckler cow shed. Goint to have to paint some of the sheds to, that green clad looks a bit off! Will probably paint them in dark grey more traditional for these parts. The bare plot in the centre of the yard was supposed to be for the farm house, but houses are boring so I may just turn it into the manure pit for the calf house and suckler shed. The farmer will just have to go live in the nearest town ;-) Greenhouse will have to go to, not sure about the tarmac covering in front of the shed it was supposed to be the backyard of the house, might just concrete it in to. The walls of the calf house and suckler shed were poured using plaster so I'll continue this process, just make up the forms now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
