CJ Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 very nice pics can i ask what you made your bales from and how you made them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 The bales are made from sisal string cut up and bailed in m homemade bailer. I used the method that "ptigris" posted on the grostracteurspassion.com forum. I would have given you the link but the server of that forum is playing up so it's impossible to access at the moment.

new holland 4 ever Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 I've never seen any green string, but it might exist and even if it doesn't it's easy enough to dye the normal stuff the color you want. I also use it as static grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new holland 4 ever Posted November 9, 2008 Author Share Posted November 9, 2008 Well, it's been a long time since I posted any pics of the farm, so here goes. I didn't like my old cow shed (the dairy one)so I decided it was more than time for demolition A new metallic frame building (garret style) has been put up, the tiles for the milking parlour have been mostly put down (I first tried with the glue gun as it said on the packet and made a real mess of it, all those need re gluing, so then I spread some pva over the base and it was near perfection ) The wall that supports the frames has had all the bricks carved on it one by one. I have layed a bit of mud in the field next to it and the slurry tank is under way. So here is just a taster pic (all the others I took are rubbish because of the poor light up there) : I'll try and take some other more detailed ones (it doesn't help that I'm always shaking when I take the pics, because of the funny positions I get into to take them...)
