[QUOTE="SolwayFarmer, post: 7941116, member: 58154"] I put a second hand parlour in. Auto Id, milk meters acrs, nothing too complicated parlour was £22k for a 28:28 but I only put in a 22:22 so have lots of spares. It cost at least another £30k to fit and sort out the dairy plus another £15 for a tank and bits of electric work. We re galvanised the steel work and all new rubbers etc. since putting it in I have replaced the vacuum pumps with a variable speed system which we should have done from the start. Cost about £6k as we had new pumps and the control system for single phase. If I was to do it again wud probably put 2 second hand robots in. We fitted it into an existing shed so didn’t have much build costs. Dairy parlour and pit all made with panels. [/QUOTE]
