Is there no one with common sense in these departments to make their sites usable by normal people who do not have a degree in government waffle

How did your concrete pore go and who did it

Thanks for the follow up tag - missed it first time around.

Went very well indeed. 227 cube poured in a day.

It was indeed. Peter, Ash, Sean, Kato, can't remember the rest of the crew. Fair play to them though, what a professional team.

Never known anyone make it look so easy....when clearly it is not.
The first grain store they did for me was 2002 and have used them nearly every year since
Who did the building it looks tall

I can see why. I was going to add some photos and thanks to the thread I started asking for contractor suggestions a few months back.....but you rather beat me to it with this.

Local firm down the road did the frame and cladding - I use them for all my buildings. It’s 8m clear under the haunch.

So moving on from yesterday’s mass debate and drawing a line under it (thanks for all the kind comments guys & girls:)) here’s what happened at work yesterday.

On top of some office paper work the 6630 went back together.
Here’s what the paptos (power assisted pto shift) looks like, just in case you were ever wondering:rolleyes:.

It uses two big electro magnets to pull the selectors into gear and spring loaded into neutral.

New casting fitted and the end float setup on the shafts. 0.015mm isn’t something you can really measure without a dial gauge.

While I had all the brackets off the back thought I’d modify the isobus plug location. I mean, why on earth do they fit them under the couples where it gets covered in oil!:facepalm:

Then down at the airport today for a couple of bits. Rad replacement on one of the old rangers, it’s only water on the floor:cautious:

New ASO (airport safety officer) vehicle landed. Giving Isuzu a try to see how long they last! Can’t be any worse than the new rangers I suppose.

Programmed the information boards.

And finally, went to get some mang on some spring barley and it all pear shaped:facepalm: will it ever stop raining:whistle:

Ok I had a decent up bringing, but any parent that doesn’t want to see their kids do well doesn’t deserve kids!
However I moved out at 16, got an apprenticeship at 17 and bought my first house by 19 so I wouldn’t say I’ve been free loading. Not sure what your trying to imply to be honest:scratchhead:.
Oh and from setting up on my own I’ve more than coved my dues, thank you very much(y)

If everything you have is down to your own efforts I salute you. Did you buy the land you farm
