[QUOTE="cmjust0, post: 425015, member: 2882"] I spent about two hours, a half a can of PB blaster, and about a quart of sweat recovering old rusty gate hinges out of the poles in my stock barn.. Got six full sets and one extra. They're about $6.50/each at TSC, so I figure I paid myself about $40 an hour for the labor. I've also got a five gallon bucket a few inches deep with old nails I've pulled from the old chute..."system"...that was in my stock barn.. There aren't any driveable nails in the bucket. I know that because all the driveable ones were seperated and went into the new chute "system" I'm building. They're actually heavier than new nails, and since they've been dulled by my having hammered them out backward, they don't split the old dry yonderwood I reused.. I'm a tightwad. It'll probably get me killed one day as something comes crashing through my shabby setup, but I can't help myself. :lol: [/QUOTE]
