    You do good work, and it's a joy watching you. You don't hesitate to show us your mistakes, and how you plan to avoid them on your next project. I was thinking, with all the money you have spent, and the work you have done upgrading the farm, I believe you have justified buying more livestock. Thank you for the terrific videos.

      I was going to comment that and saw your comment, although I'm not sure if you are referring to the same thing I'm thinking of. I saw a contraption that was high enough off the ground to cover the entire area of the cows side and was made of fiber like a car wash brush. When you turned it on, the fibers spread out in a circular ring and spun just like a car wash brush. The cows appeared to love it. I think it reminded them of using their tails to swish off flies but without the effort! lol

    JudithB good idea to have water catchment systems in place!!!! I planned to do that on my house to fill the pool, but I put a 50 gal tank in place and the water was brown and yukky from the asphalt shingles. I moved the tank to along the barn and will be building a system to water animals and the garden drip systems. The pool holds 13000 gal of water and will be filtered for the house water and used to flush. I definitely need a metal roof on the house!!!

    Anymore people are using Timber loc screws instead of brackets. Take a 1/2 inch blade bit countersink it about a half inch just so no one hits their fingers and drive the screw home. Some of the screws use a socket end and the kind they have are a special tip. I'm buying some tomorrow for a project I need to get done. I'm going with the 6 inch ones, they are a little pricey.

    Great job on the feeder, one thought ran thru my mind, especially when you quoted the price you paid for the lumber, have you ever thought about a band saw mill? you've got plenty of trees / lumber, and the cost is about three times what you paid for that lumber alone on average? and would pay for itself in two or three projects.
