Working on the Barn: Automatic Waterers

November 10, 2012   //   Life on the ranch

One of the main things that we are putting in the barn is automatic waterers.  They will be a huge time saver for us!

You’ll see below we started digging the trenches for the water lines.  They are a lot of fun for kids to play in!

In these pictures  Josh is laying the water lines in.

Here we are starting to bury those outside lines.

It is quite the process getting water lines to every stall!

 

The water lines are buried now (except for a small portion in the corner).

The red and black piping will hook to the waterers.

Below is a prototype that Josh designed that will serve as our automatic waterer.  It isn’t powered by electricity because we didn’t want that to be an issue if our power went out at the barn.

Here we are showing you the actual dimensions of what the new waterers will be as compared to this prototype.

We are almost there!  We can’t wait!
