[QUOTE="hillbilly, post: 29318, member: 373"] Watch out for bargins! I bought an old [25 to 30 yr old] squeeze chute two years ago...Perfect shape, used under roof, hot dipped galvanized. $350. Thought I did well, hitched it up and brought it home. Tore out my old setup [headgate mounted to cornerposts] and wheeled my new fancy squeeze chute into place. Trouble was, cattle have changed...a lot in the last 30 years. Wide open, my cows could hardly fit in the chute and none of them could get through the head gate in the open position. I had to dump them out the side. After much cutting and welding, throwing away the headgate and welding my old one in its place, messing with it 6 months.... It now works, just OK. I've figure I've got a thousand in material, sweat and blood in that sucker. Wish I'd bought a new one. [/QUOTE]
