[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1849993, member: 39695"] I built one back in’08 for the farm I used to herdsmen for. 16’ railroad ties for the posts. Treated 2x8’s for the sides, two 1/2” bolts at every overlap. Rail road ties for the floor with 2x2x1/4 angle iron for the cleats. The floor rotted out and I replaced it with 3x12’s It was only about 8’ long. Seemed really short, but the fat cattle never hesitated. [/QUOTE]
