What was your procedure for cutting open that little pressure tank? I have never opened one up before.
I just unscrewed the valves from the top to make sure there was no pressure. One was broke so it had been drained for what looked like years. (Refrigerant)
Then I just went to it with a cutting torch. No issues.

Big Bertha #5 - Timed Release Protein Feeder
After I made sure everything performed flawlessly, I put a thick coat of XO-Rust paint on the inside of the feed head. I did forget to unplug the feed unit though and some leftover feed dropped into the wet paint. Oh well.... Painted in feed attractant I guess. [emoji41]

That's a Great looking feeder. been wanting to build something like that. Are you bagging the protein to fill of getting a truck to fill ? how much you think it costs to fill up each time ? That's my biggest drawback ??? I'm spending about 300.00 for 3 months or so, which i know is chump change for some. Seems like my feed Bill is more that my Lease payment
