We lined the building with bridge planks

This one was kinda a double foaling stall, with a swing gate that could be shut of the stall was 12X12. That is about the only thing I miss from Kansas.
 
Thanks. Just as soon as we got the barn how we liked, and wanted it, we sold it. Each stall had its own run outside.

Wonder if I could borrow Phil and Lisa? :D

You could HIRE Lisa, but I am thinking you couldn't afford her. :)
 
We used rough 2 by 6 on the outside wall and planed on the rest.
We bought a bunch of used 25 foot sucker rod for $4 per lenght for the jail bars and in the process found out that our chop saw was not quite grunty enough. The frame, verticals and horizontals are of pressure treated 4 by 6. The verticals are 4 feet into the ground.
We bought enough 1,1/2 inch by 3/16's angle iron and combined it with some scraps laying around to frame the doors, and bought the Stanley box rail hardware to hang the doors. A bit overdone, but better then under. LazyWP, Phil is otherwise occupied at the moment should we run out of things to do I will notify you. :)
