pistol pete Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 looking good jez can't wait to see it finished. think the dryer shed would be cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 is that off EMA It can be. I bought mine from the local model shop, took nearly his whole supply ;) Would do though, it's cheaper that way. Nice work Jez looking fab, very neat and tidy :P Thanks Mark, that's the idea. I need an area where the old farm was though, some nice brick buildings would be nice. depends if your after cattle ect or just a root silage grain farm, loads arround now ,infact more than cattle farms really It will eventually be an small arable unit, feed barley etc / simple rotation etc with about 40 suckler cattle but i'm no stockman so will need some adcice on that one, e.g how big a shed for 40 cows needs to be and the type of systems you can use, e.g, how many months indoors and out? Any help, post it here or PM me ;) Oh yeah and a small bit of contracting on the sidelines :D looking good jez can't wait to see it finished. think the dryer shed would be cool Thanks pete, it's already in my head how to make it, one big open span building but i don't think i have the workbench space for that at the moment....
