    There is a fencing company (Hanleys?) in Roscommon sells them, also Johnston Equipment outside Longford town usually have them

    FRS in these counties may have them also.

    M7 is being widened near Nass to 3 lanes. Get yourself a hiviz a white van and a trailer, must be a few left lying there somewhere.:cool:

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    You may not be able to be fussy about location. Getting hard to source quality ones. Got some off FRS in Boyle recently. 14' and in good nick.

    Also got the uprights (15'9" U beams that u cut in 2) which are like hens teeth. They are a super job and value when u consider their strength and the fact they galvanised. Lifetime job.

    Might have to travel so. Wouldnt mind going up to 20km for them, but Roscommon is a bit too far for them. Cheers.

    I need them a side of a loading pen for cattle. The wall there is low and loose stone and I don't think I can build on top of it. Other side is motorway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭lakill Farm


    20km is hardly a distance.

    Sure you could buy them and get them delivered. 3 pallet space to take a 11ft crash barrier. €60 a pallet space

    I think he probably ment 200km?
    That would bring you close to Roscommon, or Johnston Farm Machinery in Longford town.

    I don't like their credit terms. Or customer service.

    I bought some plastic barrells from that company last week.:D They told me they only had orange jiuce in them. You could smell it when you opened the plugs on top. All I'm thinking is, why didn't they leave the labels on the barrells if it was only juice in them.
    Rinsed them with some bread soda to be safe. Will cut them in half for feed troughs.

    Power hose maybe after the bread soda.
