How about a scraper like this, with longer arms back to the axel

Give Mulmuf a call.

They're grand on a straight run, but a pain on any awkward areas.

I bought 2 of those before in Woodies. You'd be amazed what you'd end up using them for. Fierce handy.

Thanks lads, I'm in negotiations with a crowd at the moment. Il post how I get on as soon as I get it. Thanks again

if you can stick weld, they say you should get the hang of MIG welding handy enough.

I put up an outdoor switch today on the wall for the lighting in the cow housing. For the last 14 years it's been a blue plug up on top of the wall inside of the shed. To access said plug I had to climb on top of a five bar gate and stand on top when turning on or off the lights. Yes that's how stupid and lazy and antiquated things are here with me. 1 year with someone else is 5 years with me. Anyway it's done now a rolls royce of a job and guarrenteed to 100m under water.

The thought now occurred to me that the electric fence should also be on an outdoor switch. Currently it's to switch off is to go inside the garage and unplug the fencer whilst not falling on the tools or gardening equipment. An outdoor switch just at the garage door would be a nice simple labour saver. And yes I'm that lazy (as above).

Get a sim smart switch, and work it with the phone, you check whether it's on or off or turn it on/off with your phone when you're down the field

Lost oil cap a year ago, I can't understand how I have so many issues with machinery with my shortcuts to!!

concreted the passageway of the shed during the week and the barriers are just less that 15 inches about the concrete. Put in 2 6x3 timers in brought it up to 12inchs from the floor to the passageway with roughly a 2 and half inch’s of a gap between the bottom of the barrier and the timers. Would I need another timber to fill that 2inch gap or should I be ok? Just to note the passageway is roughly 3inchs higher that the slats before someone says the barriers are two low

I’d have an issue with that in that I feed the meal on the ground and it would go under the boards then. Only for that that would sort my job out.

I got it after from a crowd called pipefab, I found online. Made and delivered in 24hrs after ringing. Unfortunately my old exhaust didn't fit down on the end pipe too well, so had to do a bit of butchering, but got it eventually. I reckon I saved 500 over just buying the pipes from a massey dealer

Put them in anyway will see how they get on. don't look to bad. will take a picture tomorrow. The passageway was poured last week on Wednesday so can't drive on it that's why I will be leaving the cattle out for the next two weeks. But Would it be ok to put in some springers and just barrow the silage up to them as there calving at xmas. Think that would be ok as they won't be walking on it to get on and just eating off it.
