[QUOTE="Pan mixer, post: 5628938, member: 5334"] Just go and mend that hinge in the fattening shed I thought. Collect all the tools I need. [ATTACH=full]732786[/ATTACH] Get through the heap of poo and spot the problem... [ATTACH=full]732788[/ATTACH] Bottom hinge (all female as it last longer) rusted out - again, I did it in 2004. Three more trips back to the workshop (180 paces each way) to get bits that I had forgotten or not known I would need. Some time sorting out the problems caused by the Goblin who mixes all the electric leads up in that wheelbarrow the second I go out of sight. [ATTACH=full]732790[/ATTACH] Cut out the old bit, the post had rotted through too of course, I am kneeling in poo, pigs are hastling me... [ATTACH=full]732798[/ATTACH] 'Bodged' (I know I used new metal and new welding rods but no paint that would be licked off in moments) a new bit on and refitted the gate. I had to do this in the half hour between some of the pigs going on the lorry and the next ones moving in - no pressure there then, I only had 3 people looking over the gate at different times asking how long was I going to be. Not very pretty but should outlast the rest of the shed - only 9 more to do now. [/QUOTE]
