    How satisfying. Brainstorming together, hands on working together to carry out concepts. Testing out a job well done - literally "in the field". Then having a review session together on how well things worked out, meanwhile while enjoying the ice cream you all participated in making, as a reward, & then - Becky was still thinking - how can we make this even better - said let's go out on the porch to enjoy eating this ice cream, & then there's one more thing to be grateful for - Sally's all fixed up & back in service.
    You guys are really setting a good example for us all, especially for families with kids. Too many kids never get to feel satisfied due to having completed a task.

    2 eye bolts, to hold a bungee cord across the nesting crates so the birds can't push the boxes out and escape the shaw. As long as you're working on it anyway.

    For future builds hinge the legs so that you can flip them up and have more clearance when transporting.

    Excellant new changes to the Shaw! I was just talking to one of the vendors at the Rutherford County Farmers Market yesterday. She said her husband is going to need to build a new chicken tractor. I told her to get him to check out your new ChickShaw design. I asked her, have you ever watched Justin Rhodes on RUclips?? I showed her how to connect with you on RUclips! She said she will get her husband to look at your new ChickShaw! I also told her about Meg & Ben Hollar's channel too!😊😊🙏🐔🐔🐔

    @SuperJaXXas 4 года назад +6

    Maybe you should put the door in the back, opens up all kinds of possibilities in the front. Also if you have a little 110 v MIG you could get rid of all that heavy wood and replace it with some light weight 1"x1"x16 gauge square tubing. Save a lot of weight and the tractor would last dang near forever. I don't really get the feet, they limit the ground clearance, I'd go with a cheap rotatable trailer jack.
    YMMV

    For the legs on the chicken tractor could you use hinges to fold them up when traveling

    • @theJustinRhodesShow
      @theJustinRhodesShow  4 года назад +1

      I could but that adds too much complexity for us. Just easier to make the legs short and just pick up and go.

  • @mattheww8504
    @mattheww8504 4 года назад +1

    for the legs use a though bolt then it can pivot on one side and a though bolt to lock the other in place. so that way when you move you can turn the legs up and out of the way

    Great job! Your design is getting better and better. The only thing I would worry about is flex overtime. The only reason I didn’t like your design was it couldn’t get towed. Now, it’s finally ready to move. :)

    Try the tow bar at the other end, that will leave the ramp clear.

    • @theJustinRhodesShow
      @theJustinRhodesShow  4 года назад +1

      That might work. I think now with the hitch and legs all the weight of the chickens going in and out might not tip it.

  • @sharoncochran8508

    Really cool but be careful. A hitch can be brutal on the shins, knees or thighs (depending on your size)! I've learned that the hard way, several times. I'm a slow learner! LOL!

    What if you put the handle on the back side where the nest boxes are and the door on other end next time you build it? Just a thought.Then the door wouldn't be in the way or any issue.

    Two ends to the wagon could have put the hitch on the back side, with the hitch angled upwards so that once it’s hitched up the front would tilt up?

  • @charlitoskenneditos5745

    If you were able to lift with handles at your side (rather than in front or behind you so you don't have to contort yourself), similar to a wheel barrow, it would save your body in the long term.

      @theJustinRhodesShow  4 года назад +1

      100% meat. They're hair sheep. The ram will be mixed with the ewes come October for early March babies 2021. Then, towards the fall we'll have our first harvest from that offspring.

  • @GHumpty1965
    @GHumpty1965 4 года назад

    If you flipped the hitch to the other side of the chicken shaw you would not have to worry about the opening for the Chickens. you would also have more space to make a utility space to put the feed and water on for the move. I still think the VW tow bar would have been easier to mount then reinventing the wheel so to speak. I still liked the video and the thought that you put into it, being disabled I wish I could get out there and do this kind of stuff still.

    @RealLimerickman 4 года назад

    I would put the door out the back, not the front. Nest box in front or sides. Easy access on top without having to go in the door.
    Have a single leg on a door type hinge st the hitch. A spring to tie it up when moving and to tie it in place when parked.

  • @Eric-gi9kg
    @Eric-gi9kg 4 года назад +6

    Justin..
    Please..DO NOT Remove that angled piece. With the extra weight (birds) on the the tongue, the stress WILL Shear the hitch from the shaw.

  • @PajaritoAzulejo
    @PajaritoAzulejo 4 года назад

    Idea; Add a 3rd wheel like you have on the Luchador behind the ball? That would eliminate the two stands. Can't say it would make it much lighter but would make it easier for two small boys to push like a chariot... maybe 🤔

  • @stephancote4745
