    Here is mine, built it a few years ago, its 8' x 16' x about 6.5' tall, made from 3/4" galvanized pipe with cattle panels to keep the cows out and chicken wire to keep the birds in.

    Question about air nailers

    Wow a lot of confusing information here. You have a Finish nailer, it can shoot from about 1" to 2" or 2 1/2" nails, it should say on the box, might even say on the gun itself. It can use ANY 15 ga. nail that it is designed for. Nails will have a slight head. Good for door casing, baseboard...

    o/t, '95 Chevy pickup repair question

    This may sound elementary, but my'95 does that and i have found the battery cables need a good cleaning and tightening. I have been fooled twice by this truck and both times it was an easy fix.

    What do you call this metal hopper?

    Self Dumping Hopper, you don't need a forklift to dump, I strap mine on the back of my flatbed all the time and haul to the dump. Mine are from Roura, they make many different sizes.

    Finish Mower For Sale?

    Those home made "weeders" used to be standard procedure for farms here, back before batwings became popular . Nobody ever had just one usually had three and sometimes five. Once you get them going very hard to stop your tractor. Common sight in East Texas. You could trail all five behind you...
