Bit of a wall and a small slab.
Tidy work, Just asking as I’m interested in making my own shutters, how do you slide the fixing bolts out of the set concrete? We shuttered our own silage pit wall just by knocking up 8x4 ply on wooden frames and used blue alkathene pipe as sleeves, would like to weld some permanent ones that will last like yours.

Busy going through all my pastures and had to take a picture. Loving the combination of species for the cows. Started planting ryegrass, chicory and lucerne mixes about 2 years back and they changed the whole way we use to farm.

Had to make a plan to get some extra weight onfront of our Landini to handle the ripper's weight better. Think it turned out good. Landini dealer said he will bring me some charcoal paint for the extra weights.

I use 20mm blue mdpe water pipe the same, knock it out afterwards, most come out easily.
