Here’s an old project we did for my goats an extra shelter. The epitome of making the best of what you have.
We had the roof piece which is fiberglass on an aluminum frame. I believe it used to be part of an old box truck. My dad collected old vehicles for scrap and called it his life insurance (he had a heart issue and couldn’t get a decent policy way back when) and this was something leftover that we still had laying around.
We cut some chinaberry trees for posts and screwed the roof to the existing shelter (also part of an old truck). We thought about sinking the posts in the ground but decided against it in the end.
After that we used some old pallets to frame around the legs for additional stability and a wind block.
And the finished result was a very good, slightly sketch looking, goat shelter. I think the whole thing only took about two hours to do. It is not pretty but it cost nothing but labour. Sorry for the low lighting. We were running out of daylight when we finished.
It’s been up for almost four years now and it still keeps my critters dry ❤️
