    1000 LB corn feeder

    I had a slow spell in the shop this wee so I decided to start on some new corn feeders. They are 4x4x1 plus the funnel. I’m thinking overall height of 5’. Made out of 14 ga steel.

    Here is what I have done so far.

                Your figuring on 20 bags per feeder? Im asking only because I'm bout to start this myself for a couple 1000 lb protein feeders.

                  Yes, but that was a guess. The top part will hold 720 lbs, just not sure on the funnel.

                  But I do know that any feeder will hold more corn than protein.

                    I finished them both today and am dropping them off for powder coat. I tried the lance low throw route. They turned out good!!

                      That looks great! Are you welder/fabricator by trade? I wish I had your skills...
