Fencing through the ages. Did most of the farm with Mell, pinch & spade in my 20`s Probably why I`m buggered now.
Managed not to kill anyone with the Thomas magic wand.
Just arrived -This Protech on the telehandler just loves braying in strainers. These young uns just don`t know they are born ;)View attachment 919284View attachment 919285View attachment 919286
That Thomas driver is lethal, neighbours had one , to be safe you stood in the next field!
Your farm yard wall and buildings are a credit to you, craftsmanship of the highest order. :)

Thanks for the complement.
We are fortunate that the 19th century steading was very well built. With the addition of big doorways in the gable ends they still have mulitple uses in the 21st century.
Just reslated an 80ft x 20ft stone building put up about 1850. Cost us £2k 40 years ago to put a door in the end & concrete the floor then £7k to reslate it this year. Suspect the maintenace on a modern building will be more than that over 170 years

Is that a KKK on steroids?!
It’s a bit more like a pigtail drag with really good depth control . I’m hoping to to use it behind the combine to create a very shallow stale seed bed but also be able to cultivate Some stubbles a bit deeper where we intend to drill with our combi drills . I may be wrong but I think it will be a quite versatile bit of kit .
