Winch Up Feeder Question

[mako191]

I want to put together a winch up feeder using supplies from Boss Buck. My question is do I need to buy the legs from them @ 120.00 for three or will top rail be strong enough to support a 55 gallon drum?

Use drill stem

We use 1-1/4" galvanized rigid conduit. Works perfect.

Just be sure they are securely staked at the bottom--

Square tubing is better.

Use T-Posts that paralell the legs then wrap the two together using wire. Avoid having the top of the T-post sticking out (even with a winch up). Much safer when filling the feeder and also less to hit with arrow in flight.
