Williams Woodshed Workshop

[V8Druid]

Looks great, definitely needs an airing

trouble is it's 35ft into the far end of a 40 ft box ... with a hell of a lot behind it -- several bikes and 2+t of Harrison lathe to name a few things
combined with the fact I have absolutely no idea WTF happened to my 4 ft pallet truck?? - got two 6 footers, but can't for the life of me recall who I lent my 4 ft to

I always take a photo now with the borrower, so I know what all was borrowed, who borrowed it and when!

Thats the trouble with containers, no matter what order I put the machines away in mine, its always the one at the back I want

Moved the remains of a bonfire yesterday from the landlady's woodland at the top of the field down to our bonfire, got the harrow out to clear up so I did the whole field.
Gave my soil area a go as well, it's come up OK considering it was like porridge when I spread it, so wet. More to do though

One of those days where you work all day, dozens of fixings, 10 or 12 cutting discs, half a dozen batteries and a passer by wouldn't think you've done anything
Top timbers almost finished, uprights cut to height, vertical timbers (for easy fitting of horizontals/wind netting) fitted, big gate hung, little gate cut to size and probably other stuff I've forgotten

So far this shed has cost me 170 quid for timber and 6 inch screws, 72 for the gates and call it £30 for consumables so £272. Everything else I already had, was lying around or off cuts amazing what you can do with a bit of imagination
For the Eagle eyed the bar under the gates will be removed once the sheds in position, I'm not training the digger to jump

Trying to get rid of some of the years of muck, dumping out loader buckets ready to harrow out. Unfortunately the dexta battery was flat so I started on a little fence instead, drop off to the planings feels a bit much when I'm using the loader left to right.
Rabbit enjoying the old hay, cows prefer the fresh stuff indoors

 

[William127]

Not sure which I like more, the fork truck or the milwaukee stilsons
Old cattle crush hopefully sold so I've finally freed off the sliding tube sections

 

[William127]

Crush sold, poor bloke had his old one nicked out his field ffs
Hard enough to make a pound or 2 on his 25 cows as it is, without that kind of sh*t

TBF though, it's the reason there is so much theft in the farming game -- leaving kit lying about 'exposed' to the tea leaves ... 95% of quads that go astray usually have the keys sat in them, left in the yard/barn/where-ever .... own worst enemy as far as security goes

 

[William127]

Found a few pictures of my old digger, loader and defender in the barn. Only 7 years ago but the barn looks so empty, even though I've got no logs at all now.

Run out of leftovers skinny posts are actually parts of 'pallets' but a 3x3 is a 3x3

 

[William127]

60 buckets of muck knocked about this afternoon, Dexta running lovely

 

[William127]

Been looking forward to a 'barn day' today all week, maybe a bit of shed building, bit of welding, tractor maintenance perhaps
Nope, jobs 1, 2 and 3 are small petrol, probably my least favourite
Fingers already bleeding from trying to get the muck truck started but (bloody) fingers crossed, that's off to a new home today, freeing up a good bit of container space

 

[William127]

Mucktruxk sold, 2x whackers back in better health

 

[V8Druid]

Day in the shed today, tidied out the whole back of the disco, moved some bits round for a bit more space, put some longer screws in the bench castors then started fiddling the ransomes engine into place.
2 mates in doing landrover bits. Series 3 24v FFR getting a front NATO hitch and a bit of an outing. Td5 110HD having some rust treated, steering damper, bumper and bulbs
Good day in the sunshine

Newbury spares day again, sold a decent amount but mostly low value. Too good to bin but not worth anything kind of stuff lol
Auction grease guns sold steadily, doubled my money on them now and I still have a few left
Ended up coming back with a log splitter and my mate a ride on mower

Sold mine a year ago. Think I got £1200 for it. Saw a galvanised version as sale yesterday but didn’t take note of what it sold for

I dropped the price to 650 quid as it needed a bit of attention from standing, was happy enough seeing as I paid 7 or 800 7 years ago
Well happy to get it gone as its freed up a lot of space in the container, way more than you'd think as the bits I've moved around just seem to have slotted together more efficiently

I bought mine from new so it owed me a bit more

The hydraulic splitter I bought at the jumble, next to my existing pto one. It'll be ideal for running off a digger/mini loader on jobs. It's had a decent sized plate welded on the base and had a pair of wheels slid over the linkage pins, what a great idea! Couldn't resist for £400
