quick fixes, bodges and creations

[Pilgrimmick]

Was that 15/16 spanner actually used on metric bolts or just strategically held in the fore ground to appease any bodging purists that might be offended by the propper use of a toe clamp set?

But look at the state of the jaws on the spanner, looks like it has been used as a hammer!

Bodge alert from a couple of years ago. Now completed.

Not rocket science.

Looking good, there are some serious forces involved when restraining a big cow

Ours are quiet, but quieter with the scoop.
A ratchet would be good but we've managed with the bolt fixing.

How do you lock it in position?

 

[Nearly]

M10 bolt (and R clip) through the circular disc.
Pic was before another 5 holes were drilled.
It was always the intention to cut teeth into the disc outer and make a ratchet, but for 30 cows it's just fine.

But was there a need for a full circle of steel, shocking extravagant
Almost impressive, a drop of paint it would look factory ......

The circles of steel are from the floor of local scrapyard. I think they're profiled out of the web of girders etc to save weight.

You need a round tuit before undertaking this

And you might need a long wait on one end to keep it straight

I thought you'd just made a very very neat job of cutting your circle with an angle grinder

I really like the sounds of your local scrapyard Nearly . Local one here mostly stocks Rottweiler turds.

Finally got the tyres stuck on the bodged rims. 600 65 38's. No purchases involved apart from 2 valves.

Waiting for the landwork now.
