Wanted to add a free-choice protein feeder to my Terrell County set-up for the 2016 season. Had a couple days completely off so decided to spend them in the welding shop building Big Bertha #2. Secured a drop piece of 36" culvert pipe and cut it to 48" tall and then added 3 feed tubes. Outfitted it with 3 removable legs for easy transport. She should hold around 1300 pounds of feed and will last forever. Have right at $300 total in the project. Not too bad when considering that units for sale in the same capacity range cost 3-4 times that much. Waiting on the local tin shop to roll me a lid and then she will be finished and ready to head West this March.
