the showman 4,074 #1 Posted January 9, 2016 4 or 5 years ago i was clearing pallets from a ride-on tractor dealer, they were what the new tractors came in and were nicely made of thick wood.I had so many at one point i had to put up a store to put the wood in to keep it dry before we could burn it in the stove.As the wood pile went down I sneaked a few Wheehorse parts in there but just recently i seem to have more in-coming than out-going so decided to give it a makeover and make it more accessible and watertight .Some photos to follow shortly for Stormin 7 Triumph66, nigel, Ian and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #18 Posted January 10, 2016 Haven't done much today because of the rain. I think its rained all day with 15 minutes in between the showers. I got the front top rail on and the cross beams to support the roof. 5 diggerjames, Alan, Triumph66 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #21 Posted January 10, 2016 The bottom rail needs to go on a bed of morter because the drive is a bit uneven so cant do anymore till we get some dry days, as with the roof just have to wait now to do anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #22 Posted January 10, 2016 That's looking more like it. Thought it was finished in the last photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #23 Posted January 12, 2016 As today was dry ( well almost ) I managed to get a bit more done. Despite the high wind I've got the roof boarded and felted, i ran out of adhesive so had to go out which put me behind, ive got to do the edges yet but at least it should be dry. I'll load a couple of pictures in a bit for Stormin to look at 2 pmackellow and nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
