Now that spring has arrived has anyone got any plans on growing anything this year .? I hope to be growing a few things in the greenhouse this year like the usual Tomatos peppers ,cucumbers .

Cut the corners away ,No pressure there then Ian

I tell you what Ian , i think you done a right champion job of that hood so far , Quite a challenge . Does this mean that Ken is going to have the restored look or is he going to keep the original repaired look ? good job

That looks like it has potential Chris , will keep you busy for an hour or two . Have fun

The Grass is looking nice & lush , & its good to see the daffs

Delighted how it all has turned out Ian , look forward to seeing a video of the action

She certainly looks nice & dirty now Matt, I can see your problem with the tilling on your video by the tractor moving too fast while tillin , hopefully your flow control valve will cure the problem , i agree it should have been a standard fitting She looks like she more than capable of doing all she is asked to do .

Great work Matt. i just love the suitcase weights , i have really enjoyed following this projects , thanx for the regular updates

It looks stromg enough for the battle ground being in those military colours, , is the intention to repaint in army greens ? Have fun restoring it

Hmmm , near a wheelhorse , I wonder what that might be ????????????????????? any further clues ??????????????

Ian , yes sadly the barn is built in the flood zone , but then the whole garden is . I intend to install a raised timber floor inside in the hope that the water will not rise above the floor level . I am hoping that due to the recent flooding within the Bridgwater area that the Government & the Environment agencies will dredge to local rivers to prevent the flooding happening again . Hopefully they wont want the embarrasing situation of flooding to arise again due to un dredged rivers , Infact, strangely the local water exit coarses are all extremely low for the time of year so whatever they have done seems to be working . The decorations were put up on the new barn early so that the flood water didnt float them away . I am going to have to complete the barn with the view that it may flood again in the future, so i will have to keep tools etc off the ground .

I started to build this small barn in the autumn last year 2013 , i needed somewhere to store some of my tools & a few wheel horse tractors along with a few other Bits n Bobs, & also somewhere to do a few jobs . I managed to use up all the left over bits of wood that i had accumilated from customers jobs & i managed to pick up a Mahogony exterior door from the bay of E for Ten Quid . i could buy the glass for that sort of money . I have only managed to complete the front & side section so far and i built the barn doors only this week end . Hope to have the roof pitched sometime this week. i would have like to use reclaimed clay roof tiles but the budget would not stretch to that ,so i am using Box profile steel roof sheets ,

Nigel , Have you got any more pices of the white trike ? its an awesome looking build

good luck in getting her going again

thatsa a natty looking mower , i wonder what age that is ? Berkshire to Bridport Dorset thats a fair old slap of a journey . Hope all is well with t6he mower when you get it , Good luck & safe journey

Could of been a story for the bumps & bruises dept

just read the C4 article Mark , great read , very enjoyable

Tyzack also used to make Bricklaying tools as i still have a Bricklaying Trowel & pins made by them

Ian`s yah man to sort that welding out

I have never done any ploughingbefore but it look to be enjoyable and also theropeautic , How big are the fields that you have to plough ?

WH smiths get there copies a few days later than the people that subscribe to T&M .

look forward to reading that

Yeah like to see other different tractors.

Have you looked in the download section , There is a maintenance maual for the Mg5 Ransomes Crawler

Half the battle in creating good work like this is having the right tools That is an amazing cabinet Bob
