    Would be handy for bringing in newborn calves from mad bitches of cows. You'd be fast enough to get away from them.

    I came across this idea on an American site I read a lot - Garage Journal.

    Someone took a length of square guttering and cut slots into it to make a tray for spanners - useful if your sick of having them all thrown into a drawer and need to sort them every time you look for one specific size.

    Might sturdy had the 14 foot gate on it first solid as rock.Red ESB ducting fits the gate posts snug. Mighty handy way of hanging a few temporary gates anywhere. Was told next time to do it with a lorry tyre as they not at high when flat on ground.

    Great idea there .. handy as well if you wanted to split field temporarily with tape you would have a gate in it handy enough

    Just washed it down and gave it a good scrub. Didn't bother preparing it too much as the paint doesn't last too long on the lifter as it's used
