New Milking stand (OH making them to order)
« on: July 16, 2011, 09:21:44 pm »
This is the milking stand my BH has made me

Made from recycled/scrap wood, can be made to measure to fit your Goats from £100, also good for hoof trimming and vet care
How long did you say it would take me to dig this 5 acres with my spade?

When we started to get enough milk to make a bit of cheese etc , we called in the lady from trading standards to make sure we were ok to go public.  '' you can't have unsealed wood on the milking stand , all surfaces must be washable. you must have a water supply in the dairy with a seperate hot water hand washing basin, you must have a change of clothes for milking. all the dairy surfaces must be washable , you cant use a domestic cooking thermometer for pasturising the milk , all measuring devices must be callibrated, you can't add herbs to the cheese because the people that picked them might have gone to the toilet in the field where they were picking and not washed their hands ( I wondered at this point if she drank tea ? ) '', etc, etc.
 So sod the public , they can do without our cheese , too many expensive hoops to jump through.....
So next time you make a cuppa think about who picked the leaves.!.....how the bloody hell have we lived this long.

Hehe they would love me then, no hot or cold water no taps unsealed wood milk in my jeans and t.shirt but then again I have no intention to sell cheese, milk yoghurt or ice cream it's all MINE!!!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Can be made with sanded sealed wood or any other wood you like but the price would reflect this and all will have rubber matting fitted on the base (Scrubable)
 :D the one shown was just the cheapest way to get me a milking stand quick and my back can tell the difference already
