Robert Drake's Farm

Tractors, and farm equipment, raising and caring for livestock, logging and enjoying the outdoors. Left Georgia after my Mom died of lung cancer and moved to work on the family farm in PA.
Short section of fence
Got a short section of fence done from the top of the hill down to the creek. Had a large limb fall into the area I was working in, fortunately I wasn't there when it came down. The base of the limb stuck about a foot into the ground.

20'x20' carport
Просмотров 1183 месяца назад
From start to finish, it took several days to cut down and remove the trees from the site. Got a load of gravel Monday and prepared the site. Had an issue with the framing not being square. Had to cut it off and weld it square. Worked on it a couple of hours a day and finished installing the last two rows of roofing panels Sunday morning.

I've been busy with the site preparation for the 20'x20' carport. The woodchipper has been awesome for removing all of the limbs. The first cut hay was a failure, only got 50 bales made, and normally get 200. Haven't had a chance to work on the baler. The garden looks good except for the sweet corn, which is a little sparse.

Finally, dry enough to cut hay. The grass was so tall had issues with it wrapping around the reel bearing. My fix for the issue. Picked up a 20'x20'x7' carport. The site for the carport and chipping up branches from the trees I took down. Hay is raked and ready to bale. Got a ton of firewood to split. Garden is doing good, need to weed and had to replant the sweet corn.

Built another H-brace and corner post to finish the fenceline on the back of the farm. Added some welding videos of me building the H-brace a short clip of my new Beagle puppy Grace, finishing up the fence on the back of the farm and building a short section of fence to connect the back section to the north section.

East fenceline from the Southeast corner to the bluff is done about 240'. Now, I just need to build one more H-brace at the bottom of the bluff and build a corner brace for the Northeast corner and East fenceline will be done.
