Title: New Kennels Post by: bigdics_offroad77 on February 06, 2014, 08:33:07 pm Been working on these bout a month ago and finally got time to take a picture of them. All are 8x12, going to rig up something this weekend so the barrels stay in place instead of rolling around some. Overall I'm pretty happy how it turned out. Thanks for looking.

Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: Bo Pugh on February 06, 2014, 08:59:46 pm They look nice. What I did on my barrel dog houses in my kennels I took a 2x4 and put in top of barrel and put I bolts through the barrel into the 2x4 and used chains to hang them on the side of each kennel I put mine about 8 inches off the floor so I could wash out from under them. Just thought id share that with you and you might come up with a better idea off of that

Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: dallas22 on February 06, 2014, 09:06:26 pm How much does something like that cost?
Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: bigdics_offroad77 on February 07, 2014, 08:26:33 am Thanks for some insight Bo Pugh
Mpbarrs, I went with 501 horse panels. Bit pricey but the are sturdy and don't have to worry bout dogs heads getting stuck in them. Dallas22, I'm guessing but prolly close to 5k. I'll add all the receipts up later. Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: bigdics_offroad77 on February 07, 2014, 08:27:50 am 5 x 16...don't know why it put 501 lol
Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: GOODEN on February 07, 2014, 08:31:00 am Look nice, mine are very similar. One thing you may want to do is go around the bottom 2' and paint the wire cause over few years they will be trying to rust into.

Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: toyotatodd on February 07, 2014, 03:00:19 pm How did you anchor your post? Thinking of switching to concrete on mine. Thanks
Title: Re: New Kennels Post by: bigdics_offroad77 on February 07, 2014, 04:18:30 pm Thanks Gooden I'll do that
Not a problem Mpbarrs Thanks a wild Toyota, I used brackets from home depot that are made for 4x4 post on concrete. They have a 1 inch spacer to keep the 4x4 off the concrete . It has a hole in the middle so you can run an anchor bolt down into the concrete. |
