[QUOTE="6891tmc, post: 7264291, member: 126936"] Hi all. I had an idea of using lorry curtain sider tarpaulin to cover my silage pit. Just wondering has anyone else see or done or thought of this before and if so does it work. My intention was to drape the tarpaulin down the side walls as many of us do with normal plastic and when silage goes in , put a plastic sheet down then over lap the tarpaulin over the plastic. Then maybe attach a long scaffold tube to the straps of the tarpaulin on each side of the pit and pull them together with a few ratchet straps down along the pit to help it stay together and maybe sink. I know 2nd hand tarpaulins are expensive but I'm hoping they last way longer than normal plastic and can also be patched. Does any one agree or am I talking rubbish. Many thanks [/QUOTE]
