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.

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

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.

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.

How did you anchor your post?  Thinking of switching to concrete on mine.  Thanks

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.
