Anyone know where to buy single locking headgates or stanchions?

A good set of plans for those of the home-generated variety would be prefered.

If you're anywhere in the midwest, abandoned dairy barns are everywhere and locking headgates can be had for the asking.

I ask at a feed store about 60 miles from my home and in real farming country. The fellow behind the counter said he had a friend with dozens of them laying around his old milk barn and would pick up a few for me in the next short while. Free!!! A four letter word I don't mind repeating; but I will offer to pay any way.

Thanks a Heap,
