I got this hopper years ago from a TBH'er.
I originally got with the intention of storing corn in back when corn was so expensive. While life got in the way and it sat in the pasture. Until now. I got the itch to feed protein on the west Texas lease we are on. I'd much rather DIY something than pay big bucks. Figured what the heck, all I have to do is add legs and fit something to close the hole at the bottom and I'll be in business! Should hold a ton of protein easy. Had a free day today, so pulled to the shop so I could use the fork lift. Sure made it easier. In between rain showers I got the legs on it. Used some old removable door mullions for the legs. I'll work on the plate for the hole in the evenings. Going to get a timed head from Mike. Won't be going to the lease till the 25th, so I have some time to complete it. This picture doesn't have the c channel welded to the bottoms of the legs.
