Great video, wanted to thank finished building the milking stand yesterday and my wife loves it. Great detail and made very easy to build for a novice carpenter. Thank you again.
I am write to you from Russia (Krasnodarskii kray that located near the Black Sea), thank you very much for this video, you make very nice goat milking stand, I saw this video and made by you brought me to thinking about how to do better for me. Now I have 6 goats, and it is inconvenient to milk them, among them Czech and Nubian, our family has been engaged in goats for over 35 years, we love goats, and I want to note that I like the fact that Americans explain everything briefly and clearly, without further ado , it's very cool, thank you very much, I wish you health and family well-being!
Thank you for taking the time to show this build! I’m just getting started with goat milking this season and this is the best video for explaining and the how to!
glad to hear someone else think they r fun. they make me smile sometimes laugh out loud. no other 2 leggeds just me and baaaas. i have nubian and nubian oberhasli doeling. working on getting 1 or 2 mini nubian doelings. thank you for the measurings and video
We are just getting into our new life style with goats. We have a couple of Nubians and are ready to start getting things ready for them to kid and then milk. This was spot on as to what I was researching. Thank you!
thanks for the video. The one thing I would change is using only construction or deck screws with the star/torx tips. I never use nails because the screws can always be removed and reinstalled for repairs or modifications. They are strong and never back out....and no hammering.
Very helpful. Your design will be hopefully used for years in Japan - made two for myself and a friend. Just one suggestion. Goats tend to get their hooves stuck in wedge-shaped cracks. If anyone plans to leave the stand in the barn, a wedge-shaped piece of wood inserted between the two parts of the yoke prevents that from happening. If you add a small piece of wood to the wedge (on the upper side) so it hits one of the horizontal braces and cannot go down all the way, it will not get stuck there and you will be able to get it out when using the stand.
@@homesteadhandyman4481 Wish I had one too. By the way, the idea with a bending strip is amazing! Made a couple and can't wait to brag about them at work. Thanks for sharing.
You made a nice design. I am definitely going to take much of what you did. I by no means am bashing your video but he pulled his head out at the end. I plan on making both sides movable so her head can not pull out. All in all great design. Thanks for the video
You have the kind of a wood shop and approach to projects that my father would have enjoyed. He was an old-world craftsman from Ireland. His knowledge of woods, furniture design and construction techniques would've filled volumes. So, I find it nostalgic, informative and just plain fun to watch you work and observe the layout of your shop. Thank you so much for sharing you knowledge and talents with the rest of us. I'm a rancher in Southern California and well appreciate the DYI work ethic. Thank you.
BTW... I have goats (Doe's) which will drop little ones any day now. A milking stand just became top priority So thank you again for sharing. You've saved me time and planning effort in building one. (Smile)
Nice job! This is the very first item we built when we got our goats and i think your design is spot on. I might shoot a video of ours... we've made a few modifications over the years but the wood design has held up nicely. I do not think it is necessary to go out and by one of those fancy (and expensive) all metal ones.
That was a nice goat stand , Very nice bench you have made, Can you give me the length/measurements of all the planks for the bench you made, I could imagine making such a bench myself, for my Boer goat , Thanks
I read that you cut down the legs, was it all 4 or just the front? I am getting read to start mine... this will be a first for me. Thank you for the great video.
Not tight enuf on the neck but a decent design. I used a hook and eye with a keeper on the hook not a chain. I don't think bracing on the legs is needed.Mine are front to back not side to side.
Mark W that's a great idea except for the cost . we have never had a problem with them pooping when in the stand . but there's always a 1st time. .....lol
They are all pregnant and should start kidding in 2 months. We dryed the last one off in October and had been freezing extra milk so we are good till they start up again. I love when the babies start coming! You got any goats?
I had to lower the yoke even more, I think my Saanen boys (hoof clipping not milking ) still have some growing to do before they get in the Freezer. Thank you, I made some little tweaks but you're video kept me on the right path. So from over the pond in Wales a big thank you from us.

That's great. Glad it helped you. Happy wife, happy life!
An update. Still works amazing! Hoof trimming, giving shots, milking - everything is a blast with this. Thanks!

WOW AMAZING VIDEO VERY EDUCATIONAL
Thanks for the video. Simple to understand and was easy to build. Finished building one for my wife today.

Allen Borgen Glad to share. Thanks for watching.
Classic goat pulled head right out at end. Lmao. Need to adjust that yoke sir. Very nice design. Think I’m going to build one this weekend

Good idea. I keep mine in a separate milking room that has a door so the goats are not in there alone. Thanks for watching!

I adjusted it after the video. Never had a goat pull it's head out before. Lol

Glad this will help you out. We have 8 babies running around. They are so much fun. Enjoy yours!
I like all your videos thank you so much ( wabel from saudi Arabia)
Excellent thanks
Thank you ☺️
Very nice video! Thank yiu!
Hope it helps you! Thanks for watching!
great info tha NJ
Good descriptive video. I'd like to have a setup like yours someday. You kinda looked surprised when she popped her head out. Lol.
Brad Vaughan That's why I make them adjustable. I was going to reshoot the video after I adjusted it but was too lazy. .....lol

Chick-a-Woof Ranch Like to see yours.
will do!
good job
Nice job like to design good information
That was a nice goat stand , Very nice bench you have made, Can you give me the length/measurements of all the planks for the bench you made, I could imagine making such a bench myself, for my Boer goat , Thanks
Nice work.
Thanks, now it is time for you to build one
Homestead Handyman congrats on 2k subs. I'm watching this again because I'm getting close to building one. Hopefully in the next month.
Great stand! Could someone please post the dimensions of the cuts. Thanks
I read that you cut down the legs, was it all 4 or just the front? I am getting read to start mine... this will be a first for me. Thank you for the great video.
Just the front legs. Thanks for watching,have fun!
I make my stands in a similar manor including a 9mm strapped to my side......
Ever add wheels to make it portable?
Wish I would have watched this before I bought one. lol
How much do u still these for?
Man I love guns.
Not tight enuf on the neck but a decent design. I used a hook and eye with a keeper on the hook not a chain. I don't think bracing on the legs is needed.Mine are front to back not side to side.
I tend to overbuild. Thanks for watching 🤠
hope you're still here , can I ask what breed is your goat ?
Mini Nubian
what about using a metal grate for stand platform to allow droppings and such to fall through.
Mark W that's a great idea except for the cost . we have never had a problem with them pooping when in the stand . but there's always a 1st time. .....lol
benchmade55 i am hoping your next video will show your milking process. how many are in milk?
They are all pregnant and should start kidding in 2 months. We dryed the last one off in October and had been freezing extra milk so we are good till they start up again. I love when the babies start coming! You got any goats?
Working in starting that up, trying to find enough property? What do you recommend for land per goat?
Do you hand milk or use milker.
I saw what you did there lol you forgot to close the yolk
You cut the front legs down from the original 56" didn't you?
Yes I did. I thought I mentioned that later in the vid. Had to make it a little shorter to work with the Nigerian dwarfs!
I had to lower the yoke even more, I think my Saanen boys (hoof clipping not milking ) still have some growing to do before they get in the Freezer. Thank you, I made some little tweaks but you're video kept me on the right path. So from over the pond in Wales a big thank you from us.
Hi
Do you sell these????
Sometimes, where are you located?
The goat just pulled her head right out!!! What's up with that??
I hadn't yet made the adjustment for that. Thanks for watching

This is the only video of yours that just buffers and won't play. 🙁
