On the workshop…. I’ve done a few and have moved into a new workshop in 2022 and just doing it up. Now it depends on the tools you use and what you do, but before you start insulate the walls roof and floors. 50mm PIR will do. Why? it has practical implications on cold weather working, Rust on tools, storage of fluids etc etc. my last workshop had it, my new one doesn’t…. And I’m installing it ASAP. A few points, and sorry if these are obvious. Have a level floor, and use the space gap on the difference in floor level to add floor insulation. Go online and look at layout and workflow. Put everything on castor wheels. Air filtration and extract, the higher volume the better. CCTV, alarm an sensor lights, tools are expensive, and getting insurance for a workshop remote to your house is bespoke and expensive. ( I know I have it) Pallet racking Lighting over the work benches so you don’t get shadows. Everyone says 4000k cool white but I’ve had 3000k warm white and prefer it, ( again have had both) Compressor hose reels ( love them) I could go on and on….. but enjoy your new shop… ANYONE ELSE HAVE IDEAS…….? Keep adding them!
Great to see that your fundraiser is currently @ €35,578 raised. You must be a wee bit chuffed I guess. Best wishes from New Zealand Thank you for your honesty in your post that launched the fundraiser. You touched on a very important & hidden topic that does affect farmers and their families.
Sir, you have one of the best run operations I've ever seen. Clean, organized, and you treat your animals with respect. Wish everywhere were even half as good as what you're doing... cheers.
I'd recommend great lighting in your new workroom, and painting the walls a sunny baby yellow. It lifts the spirits no end. Grey for the floor is practical, but gloomy if you did the walls in it
I would have a small doorway in your dividing wall for the shed then you could park things to work on under cover and still get to your tools easily and would still leave that side fit for straw or other storage.
Hi lads, great idea with the shed in fairness making use of an old building. One small bit of advice from an outsider looking in, consider putting your work bench on the new wall in the middle of the shed, my reason for it would be when you have your new shed built alongside that shed you could knock a personnel door from the workshop to the machine shed saving going out in the rain if your working on something bigger in the machine shed also handy for going in and out with tools from one to the other.Just an idea.
Calves are looking great. Closing the front won't protect ur roof from the wind. The wind will suck the roof up from above not blow it up from underneath. I would put the straw in the new shed then u can get in easy with the loader. Thank you for the video.
FYI; I, we my wife and I are happy to add to your fundraiser; we live in Spain but originate from Ayr; Scotland and since I found your channel, I look forward to your efforts, tasks, and trials. PS. I am not from any Farming Community. You give me great entertainment during your positive attitude and unfound errors and humour during it all. We all learn, "every day is a school day"...rarely recently do i contribute as during these difficult times my elderly mother always preaches "charity begins at home" Your youtube account is worth the support! When I see the numbers...do not falter! keep going. all the best to you and your family
So every Sunday my morning starts off with my wife shouting Ricky Has Adrian posted yet 😂. Got to love your Sunday morning. Great insight into farming Adrian. How’s the little Girl coming along #Baby
Build the steel rack with 4×2 box extend it so it's touching rafters, back wall & pillar, bolt it to everything. Then sheet it (maybe fiberglass insulation between sheets) & that's the dividing wall done. Maybe Galebreaker type roller maybe for closing straw side?
I enjoy when the calves come and their moms know their way to calving pen. I don’t know how you keep up w/ everything when the calves come. Thank you for sharing. Loving your husbandry videos! Interesting calf tag system.🐄
Calf's are looking great Adrian, and what a result on the charity fund raising you must be very proud and if your not you should be, you have done a great thing here and thank you for raising awareness, on the shed door front, I would have 2 sliding doors that slide past each other to allow access to either side, time might be a problem for you but they are easy to make, well to someone with your capabilities it would be simple and interesting for you, any way as I always say everyone has idea's, good luck Adrian and well done again
The yard and animal’s are looking in good order Adrian with a healthy face on that silage pit. I know hehaw about shuttering but I’m sure the workshop will be a picture of efficiency with everything having and in its place with a few creatures comforts to while away the hours on projects. See you after
If you want some natural light in your shop you could always replace a couple of strips of roofing with the corrugated clear sheeting. I've seen it on barn and shop roofs in strips for natural light.
I would put up a big sliding door that slides over your roller door so you can load into the shed easily, you don’t want to be trying to get into corners.
Hi Adrian, well done with fundraiser, great initiative 👏 I would fit a full size sliding door that would open left to right over to the new workshop side. It would fit neatly under the front sheets and run past the 2 pole supports in the middle...👌
Another great video on animal welfare. Congratulations on fund raising so far. Agree with your workshop ideas and fire safety. Some good ideas from others about keeping the weather out of the straw side. For me two half sliders or curtain siders. Comes down to availability and cost. Busy time for you, thanks for sharing.
consider using precast panels instead of building walls around the tool shed. It will make the shed more flexible, in case you want to change it in the future
Adrian it would be nice to have an all singing all dancing workshop but I think what you're doing is perfect. You can put all your tools in the one place and organise it as well as doing some repairs. The dream would be to make the whole shed a workshop but I like what your doing, plus when you're putting up the new shed beside the original one it's better to keep a few quid in the back pocket.
Adrian a tip for easy removal of those teats from the feeders- a sharp blade like a Stanley knife, cut them off flush on the outside of the feeder, the rubber bit on the inside just drops out easy then. It's dead easy n quick especially when I used to have like 25/30 to replace at the start of each autumn. Nice video, loving your channel and work ethic.
If you're thinking of having straw bales in there I'd say go full height on the doors or at least halfway up the front panel just enough to get a tractor cab under
You have absolutely smashing cows and heifers. I used them tags for years but found I had a lot of empty samples last year. I changed to a different tag provider and only 1 empty sample this year out of 50. The egg in the milk idea for the calf is a brilliant idea
Hi Adrian, with input gone out of control would you ever consider supersoil as a direct replacement to chemical fertiliser. Treat your slurry with slurry bugs and follow your grazing with watery digestate slurry with your dribble bar. I've seen fantastic results- bulk growth, palatablity, health and cost savings.
Would highly recommend switching to cormac tagging tags, by far a much more superior tag and none of the faffing out with putting the sample into the bottle after calf is tagged. Cormacs bvd sample is done when tagging the calf
@@IFarmWeFarm yeah them one ms are an absolute disaster Replaced any missing tag here in December and I’ve another list now of missing /broken tags from the sane supplier 🤦🏻♂️
I'd close up the top side of the shed with two sliding doors, one in front of the other opening from opposite sides. That way you can have easy access to the whole space. Well done with the fundraiser and keep up the good work.
I love everything that you post Adrian, I come from a farming background and you know it stayes with you for life. I've been following ur channel about a year now. Hope the little girl isn't keeping you up at night lol........ Greetings from Omagh... 😊
Great video. Wud u just buy whatever straw u need at harvest time and get it wrapped and store outside, if u bulk buying sawdust u may not need that much. Congratulations on fundraising, mighty achievement 💪💪👍👍
I have a neighbouring man that buys the straw for us and other farmers too, we collect it as we need it thought out the winter months. Very handy as we don’t have anywhere to store it at the minute
For closing up the straw side of the barn, I would suggest finding someone whos scraping an old curtain sider trailer and then you can have the front covered without reducing the size of the doorway because itll pull all the way back out the way
Great video Adrian If you put a door going from one side of the shed to the other if there was no straw in it you could drive the Ferguson into one side and all your tools will be there beside you
Every day is a school day Adrian. First time saw putting egg in milk for calf, will keep it in mind for the future. Great to see calving well. Fantastic achievement on fundraiser. Will you be making a trip to Cavan Machinery Show this year?
Hi Adrian well done in the funraiser. You should put 2 sliding doors in shed on separate tracks. One will slide behind the other and you can access the half of shed at both sides. Great videos.
I had thought of that one but was told it couldn’t be done by a man who looked at it, the centre wall was in the way. It’s a good idea if it worked and would be much quicker to do as well.
@@IFarmWeFarm I have it done on a shed here at home and we stood 2 pillars out side the foot print of it and track is mounted on that. Doors are in between the web of the pillars if you get me and put a flashing on top of it as it will be out side the side sheeting you have.
Hi Adrian, Look up gale breaker on sliders. Anchored on one side and ratchet strap the closing end, you will stop the wind and rain entering the building and you won't restrict the width of the opening. FYI your doing a super job 👍
Just a thought Adrian, did you consider using the front part of the new machinery shed as a work area that way you can get the big kit in for repairs, and use your fathers shed a a machinery shed for the smaller kit. Although the masseys won’t need repairing 😉😉😉 it’s a dry place for servicing tractors and the bigger kit.
Well Adrian, how u doing lovely calfs without a doubt, l think that wall will be better in the middle with roller door on , you are a great man with animals with out a doubt, great video, kieran from Laghey donegal town
Good video, I like your workshop ideas it's always better to have a bit of enclosed space to work in.. If you want inspiration to kit it out I'd suggest Colin Furze UA-cam channel for a completely barmy workshop.
I'd never put straw near that shed, fire risk etc. You will always need somewhere for the small machinery like log splitters & fertiliser spreader etc. Put you straw in a new shed where the roof is higher
Adrian I would leave building the wall enclose the whole front using a slideing door and a roller door and open a side door into where your new machineary shed will be because when the machinery shed is up you might find yourself using it more then the shed you have done and be able to reduce the size createing a larger bale store as you might find the workshop will be more just a tool store
Good man Adrian . Two sliding doors I'd say , slide one inside other like a wardrobe would make best use of whole shed and give you full access to straw or sawdust later on
Hey Adrian, a fello Cavan man is making UA-cam vids also. Sheep School.... By coincidence David is also involved with making Roller Doors... Maybe you can help each other with information etc
It might be better to put 2 swinging doors up on de shed u want for ur straw so u can into it all along the front because if u put a block wall up half way across the front u can only get in on one side so if you put something behind the wall u want u will have to move it by hand
Not a fan of swing g doors Paul, were on a very exposed site which can be very windy and swinging doors are dangerous in them conditions. Only for that yes they would work better
@@IFarmWeFarm yes they can be dangerous my brother had one and the wind got behind it and brought it around onto itself so he put up another bay onto the shed so he could cover the doorway more from the wind
Hi Adrian I was thinking of putting up an other cattle shed on my farm and I really like the look of you L shaped cattle shed do you think in your next video you can say where you got it from thanks Adrian 👍🏻
Watching you remove those peach teats I find it easier to just cut them off they pop right out and not sure if your using the threaded teats but they do have ones without threats much easier to install. Hope that helps you
For the other side of the shed u cud have 2 doors on hinges that open out so a sliding door wudnt be getting in the way of the other rolling door as much
What if you had two sliding doors on the second part of the shed, the left one sliding to the right and the right one sliding to the left ,this would give you good access to all the shed. 👍
Hello. Life! Birth! Great to see. Would it be a good idea, in an effort to be helpful, to drill holes in the base of the side walls of the silage pit to allow excess water drainage and run-off. Best wishes.
Straw can take longer unless it’s chopped up, maybe 2/3 years. I find if you put it out after the first year it can lie on the ground surface for quite a bit. But if you get good dry weather it gets very brittle and a run of a harrow breaks it up well.
On the workshop…. I’ve done a few and have moved into a new workshop in 2022 and just doing it up. Now it depends on the tools you use and what you do, but before you start insulate the walls roof and floors. 50mm PIR will do. Why? it has practical implications on cold weather working, Rust on tools, storage of fluids etc etc. my last workshop had it, my new one doesn’t…. And I’m installing it ASAP.
A few points, and sorry if these are obvious.
Have a level floor, and use the space gap on the difference in floor level to add floor insulation.
Go online and look at layout and workflow.
Put everything on castor wheels.
Air filtration and extract, the higher volume the better.
CCTV, alarm an sensor lights, tools are expensive, and getting insurance for a workshop remote to your house is bespoke and expensive. ( I know I have it)
Pallet racking
Lighting over the work benches so you don’t get shadows. Everyone says 4000k cool white but I’ve had 3000k warm white and prefer it, ( again have had both)
Compressor hose reels ( love them)
I could go on and on….. but enjoy your new shop…

How to get a job in dairy farms
Sir, you have one of the best run operations I've ever seen. Clean, organized, and you treat your animals with respect. Wish everywhere were even half as good as what you're doing... cheers.
Use two half width sliding doors with one door sliding in front of the other so that you can have access to both sides of the shed.
Nice calf husbandry, guaranteed healthy stock well done
Hi Adrian,
I really enjoy watching your family and farming life unfold daily.
You are one hell of a farmer 💪 and ambassador for rural life. 👍
I'd recommend great lighting in your new workroom, and painting the walls a sunny baby yellow. It lifts the spirits no end. Grey for the floor is practical, but gloomy if you did the walls in it

Hi Adrian Gerry Donnelly here in one of your videos you had a bucket for spreading lime in sheds just wondering which video it was in thanks 👍
If you want some natural light in your shop you could always replace a couple of strips of roofing with the corrugated clear sheeting. I've seen it on barn and shop roofs in strips for natural light.
Hi Adrian, I'd put roller door on the shed, might be a bit more expensive but we'll worth every penny,when open its out of the way,
I would put up a big sliding door that slides over your roller door so you can load into the shed easily, you don’t want to be trying to get into corners.
Hi Adrian next time you’re taking the teats off the milk feeder if you cut off the old teat the last bit will just fall back into the feeder
Great video,you may want to rethink your plan for the shed.unbelievable amount already raised for the charity,you've got great mental streng6.
Hi Adrian, well done with fundraiser, great initiative 👏
I would fit a full size sliding door that would open left to right over to the new workshop side. It would fit neatly under the front sheets and run past the 2 pole supports in the middle...👌
That probably would be the best option, am I right that you guys build doors?
@@IFarmWeFarm Yes. Build sheds, sliding doors and kit them out inside...🤙
Good video good to see the calving is going good thats a new one for me bout the eggs in milk to help a calf keep the videos coming 👍👍

Yep cormac Tags much easier, highly recommend
So true fed up myself with those tags too,forever replacing.
Making the move to Cormac tags!!!!
Great video nice to see the new born🤠
Never heard of using eggs before, definitely will try it.

Always a pleasure to watch your videos.Keep up the good work
great video as always adrian. very busy time with calving you seem to be getting a lot of hiefers which is great. how is the great bo doing
Another great video Adrian nice to new calf’s 👍👍👍👍👍
Great video Adrian, when they start to go there's no stopping them, keep at her Lad!
Good man lovely calf's some operator
Hi adrian , you bought that door off my da. I Couldnt believe it when i seen it! Hope it does the job for ye! Keeper lit
Ah good stuff, very sound fella your da 👍
That's a great idea with the eggs 🥚
Will have to try that one when I have a calf that's a wee bit off 👍
Especially when there just calved, it’s a great job.
Well done on the fundraising. You would need the straw side with a wide door to take an 8ft straw bale.
I love everything that you post Adrian, I come from a farming background and you know it stayes with you for life. I've been following ur channel about a year now. Hope the little girl isn't keeping you up at night lol........ Greetings from Omagh... 😊
Left bay of shed needs a full width sliding door which can slide across in front of the Right bay roller door.
"The mother" was made up with the idea of feeding an egg or 2 to the calves!!👍👏👋🥳

Hi adreian, good to see the fundraiser going very well.regarding the calving jackets, have you noticed they don’t get scour as much .

Although the masseys won’t need repairing 😉😉😉 it’s a dry place for servicing tractors and the bigger kit.
Yes it can always be used for that work, might put an access door though the side wall into the new shed for that purpose.

If you want inspiration to kit it out I'd suggest Colin Furze UA-cam channel for a completely barmy workshop.
Great video again Adrian. 👍🌟put full door on ur shed .we're u putting ur straw .and sawdust. U be able to put ur bedding in with tractor. 👍
enjoy all your video's. thankyou.🙂
Are you going to the spring farm machinery show
I'd never put straw near that shed, fire risk etc. You will always need somewhere for the small machinery like log splitters & fertiliser spreader etc. Put you straw in a new shed where the roof is higher
Good video.
We got the internet sorted and sent the money for the raffle.
Adrian I would leave building the wall enclose the whole front using a slideing door and a roller door and open a side door into where your new machineary shed will be because when the machinery shed is up you might find yourself using it more then the shed you have done and be able to reduce the size createing a larger bale store as you might find the workshop will be more just a tool store

Adrian, you must hear my kettle switch on.
Two sugars for me there when your at it 🤣👍

Hello. Life! Birth! Great to see.
Would it be a good idea, in an effort to be helpful, to drill holes in the base of the side walls of the silage pit to allow excess water drainage and run-off. Best wishes.
I have always put eggs in my lambs milk for the first few days. Works a treat.
Great for a hangover too, so I’m told 😉😁
Put double sliding doors on the front of the shed that you can access the whole front of the s so much easier for stacking bales and general access
Great video Adrian
Will the shed b abit small if u want to work on the bigger tractors
Brilliant video adrian you are flying through cows calving how many have calved now
👍
I always give my calves raw eggs when they are on milk brilliant job for calves
That pusher is strong
How long does it take your straw to break down so you CAN put it on your fields? Great learning about the egg trick! I'll remember it.
Straw can take longer unless it’s chopped up, maybe 2/3 years. I find if you put it out after the first year it can lie on the ground surface for quite a bit. But if you get good dry weather it gets very brittle and a run of a harrow breaks it up well.
That's why farmers dont need to go to the gym, as this work is a proper work out.!
This man is such an example to others,Attitude /heart/ work ethics. Great video ADRIAN . GHTYAY
