Finally, a new place.....

[festivaWES]

BTW i picked up the 77 ford f150 4x4 for 575 dollars. 33x12.50x15, lifted. 351m motor/c6 trans; and i got a 5 foot brush hog, a porta power set and a battery charger in the deal. Score.

Now i just need a tractor!

Looking good Wes. A meet at your place sounds great. I could drive down and check it out!!!

Cant you use that blue trailer for storage or something ? The place looks great !! Dog run/chicken coop below ? Plant some tomatoes in that tractor tire this summer.

[festivaWES]

the floor is gone. Yes it is my chicken coop. Tires will be used in garden. I have 3 of them..

The 77 is beast! Enjoying the updates! Roll-on bro!

the floor is gone.

Set the frame on some concrete blocks or treated lumber and put a floor in it later. You never have enough storage space.

Dude don't burn that trailer, strip the aluminum off it first, here its going for 30 cents a pound up to 100lbs, then it jumps to 35 cents a pound.

I wish i had it in me to save that trailer, but it is such an eyesore. Plus if i need more room I'll add on to my shop in the future.

There is no aluminum on the trailer, only hardy board. Which is rotted as well because i sent a prybar through both walls 2 1/2 feet up from the bottom. The top is tin.

My plans is to flip the trailer, pull the axles. Reinstall axles, list on craigslight as a hay wagon for 750 bucks. If it doesn't sell I'll cut it down to 18 foot and have an awesome trailer with 10k lb axles.

Fire it up then...just know the trailer frame will be no good due to the heat taking the temper out of the steel.

[festivaWES]

I will see to separate it first. I have access to large equipment, i know all about tempered metal and it weaking. Thanks for the concern.

[festivaWES]

Finally got around to getting the rest of the fence up around the house. The girlfriend wanted to save the one branch by the chicken coop....

Field next to the north side fence (chicken coop) has been mowed.

I have decided to save some of the blue trailor becasue DNR will fine me if i am caught burning it. Piece by piece it will be gone. Saving the tin, frame, and some of the lumber for future projects.

Pics.

Wow, you've done a lot of work !! Loving the updates, keep them coming. Got a horseshoe pit in yet ?

[festivaWES]

Now that you mentioned it. I may have to build one....
