    Well for a washing line I'd not have the plastic down to the ground, for breeze. However I reckon myself it'd have to come down a fair piece if the line isn't in a sheltered spot.

    Could make up temporary sides of plastic covered frames for the growing season though.

    I used to have a poly tunnel, about 12 ft long. Handy play pen on a wet day for the two lads when they were growing up :)

    Great job, very tasty!

    Just wondering should you go all the way through on the bottom and stick bolts in them? Or even every second one. Always noticed the galvanise always came away on the bottom from sitting in ****e.

    I'm doing one myself at the moment. I hope to have it finished this evening. The sheeting alone was €40 for each one and about €20 for the m6x50 hex bolts I used. At the price of the feeders new, you'd wonder is it worth it when you consider your time.
    What size sheet did you use? Mine is 0.9mm, and no bother to work with. In the local COOP, I see they have 0.5mm on them. Big difference. I welded on 2 bits of angle to the uprights at each end to better fix the ends. In the past, it was at the ends that it came loose first.

    Sometimes when you're out in the field a vice could be handy. Easy to mount almost anything on a LR Defender.
    €25 for the vice in Lidl a few bits of scrap a few bolts and thats what I came up with.

    Ah crap and there was me thinking a bench fitted to front bumper would be the dogs testicles. In Syria is he?

    Great idea.

    Do you have to bolt that on and off every time or am l missing something?

    Yeah although i have come up with a better idea using a pin but would have to weld 2 ears to hitch plate. They're only M12x30 mm bolts anyway the holes on the crossmember are threaded to accept the bolts. 19mm socket and ratchet has em on off in no time.
