[QUOTE="kerley, post: 837029, member: 7335"] I started this thread on July 27,2010 and received some very good information on my project from our friends from Cattle Today. However after dealing with a local Steel Co. who kept changing the cost of materials, I desided to go with wood eliminating the Steel provider and welder. Now I can work at my solw [retired speed] I made some small modifications in plans. This morning, with Kathy's help we tested the product. The Holding Pen and Loading Chute worked perfectly. I chose 6" round posts sunk three feet deep in concrete on 5' centers. For wood rails I used treated 2"x8"x16',18' and 20.' I tacked my boards up with nails, drilled small holes through the rails at the post connections and bolted them with 7/16" lag bolts. All that remains is mounting the Head Gate. At last we can load the cattle safely and without any help. [/QUOTE]
