TSC in Orange has a pile of them, both sizes. Looked at them yesterday when I went to pick up feed.

I have a used one for $250 if anyone wants it. pick up in hebbronville or corpus.
the wires to the motor are cut from the spinner plate slinging corn right across them. I've fixed them before, and put some plastic conduit on it, but it needs to be repaired again and probably use small metal conduit. otherwise, it all works fine.
Also upgraded with a "the timer".
it's only been shot once.

There’s a thread on here about extending the bottom guard, I don’t remember the title but someone will probably link it soon.
Funny thing is, I have two of the 400 lb feeders from TSC out and for some reason the coons can’t seem to get to the spinner. I have absolutely no idea if there’s a difference in the plates between the 400 and 600 lb feeders, but both throw 38-40 lbs of corn per week which isn’t excessive for going off twice a day 6 seconds per run.
And yes, I had a very bad raccoon problem in the area I have set up for myself. It was to the point that I jokingly started a thread contemplating using Tannerite on my feeder because I had multiple pictures with at least a dozen on and around my feeder at the same time.

I have had no problems with coins and the three 600 lb feeders in an area where we have coon problems with other kinds of feeders.

Search the original thread. I believe Smart shows how to fix them. I believe. He extends some flat bar across the bottom so they can’t reach the spinner.

EZ Feeder
This is about the closest I’ve seen a coon get to the spinner plat in one of the 400 lb feeders I’ve had it.
The picture is from roughly a year ago, a little under I think but in that ballpark.
Obviously the coon tried, and I did have several other pictures from both feeders after this one of them trying the same thing, but the weekly usage has always been consistent. If they were able to get to the spinner, they’d have emptied one of those feeders in two weeks max, and probably sooner.
The pics I get now are just of them milling around the feeder area.
