Where can I get...
« on: December 07, 2011, 07:45:05 pm »
Hi all,

OH has made me some lambing hurdles from Tim Tynes instructions in the 'The Sheep Book' for smallholders.

Anyone know where I can get the dropdown bucket holders I only need 7.

Once OH got into the swing of it ::) ::) he decided to cut the long hayracks we have in half and make two smaller ones so they can have individule hay racks in their pens.

And next year he's thinking about extending the existing barn by adding a leanto this will make it double the size.
i did sugest ALL this a few months ago, leaving the Sheep Book open on the hurdle page on the coffee table/kitchen table/in the bathroom (he likes to read a book or magazine in the bath) all of which he had forgotten, so thinks it's all his ideas - who am I to tell him otherwise ;) ;)

The rings featured in the book were made by MTL Fabrications [urlhttp://www.fimber-texels.co.uk/mtl.htm][/url].
Very helpful and reasonably priced too. They will make to order.
