Geo. You say no way to reuse them. There are several around here they opened them up for machinery. Room for combines and sprayers in them. My brother has opened one up to use for a shop with a 16ft high door and 24 wide. He cut the old mow out put 2, 1/4x4 inch angles up the opposite corners of the timbers to hold them with the angles in the cement floor. Then put 2x8or 10's from the eaves up to the middle of the peak from each side bolted to together at the peak and bolted to the timber going up to the purlin plate at the hip this holds it from shifting sideways then the old braces in the lower portion of the barn hold it endways with a couple new braces he put in. For the crosswise holding between the walls we put 3or 4 Steel beams across from one side to the other and welded a steel plate on to the steel beam at the timber at the eaves. These are bolted down through the timber holding the walls from moving in or out. On the timbers coming down from the hip I welded an angle on in line with the vertical to hold the timber on top of the steel beam and is bolted to the angles. We had the sprayer there with a hose and water for fire prevention and soaked the wood down some where I was welding so the wood was wet before welding. On dad's the back side of the mow wall was opened up so we can put round bales in up to the hip all across the barn will hold about 160-200 4x4 round bales when put in. We put them in 5 high where we clear the roof with them.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
