My biggest issue atm is figuring out if I am going to bother using this side as a collector or not. I may just direct this one down and out and worry about collecting off the other side.<br /><br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-8255525553681616462014-03-27T15:43:05.361-04:002014-03-27T15:43:05.361-04:00TB - Thanks!!!

There is an old cap on the other side of the barn that makes me wonder if that side didn't maybe drain into a cistern over there but my guess is back when the barn was built around the 1920's they didn't have the vehicle weight issues we have so didn't worry about it.<br /> <br PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-9633066004493476422014-03-27T15:40:22.813-04:002014-03-27T15:40:22.813-04:00Sandy - When he is on that Massy tractor of his wi...Sandy - When he is on that Massy tractor of his wildlife disappears in a 3 mile radius.

My guess is it's going to need to be at least 24 inches right there but yes it needs to have sufficient drop that's for sure.<br /> PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-7040044526123010962014-03-27T15:37:10.738-04:002014-03-27T15:37:10.738-04:00Sf - The problem is at the moment the ground back ...Sf - The problem is at the moment the ground back there is so wet it's almost a pond. I need to let it dry a bit to figure out just how to tackle it. I hope with just redirecting the water and adding in the gravel it will be enough.<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-36645480268445941932014-03-27T10:25:36.121-04:002014-03-27T10:25:36.121-04:00hey pioneer p !!
