As part of Blayney Shire Council's Sculptures by the Bush competition Mr Dando has finally found a use for all those spare sheets of corrugated iron behind the shed.
"Horses, cows, chickens, I even have Santa and some elves for that Christmas in July feeling," he said.
This is perfect for people to get out and enjoy something different.

Mr Dando's prowess with the tin snips has spread with two of his neighbours set to join in, creating a 300 metre long display along Walkom Road.
The competition is the expanded successor to the Hay Bale Challenge which is still an integral part.
Mr Dando though will be entering into the new Farm Art Challenge which is for those with a creative bent, but no hay.
There is also a new Scarecrow Challenge aimed at younger entrants.
The $300 first prize doesn't even rate a mention for Mr Dando who sees the potential of the event, particularly after the Covid-19 travel restrictions.
"This is perfect for people to get out and enjoy something different," he said.
The Sculptures by the Bush event runs from July 6 to July 19.
