Setting up small Grin bin

Setting up small Grain bin

pre cast footers on truck (in the half drums). Took drum half's into ready mix company, to save on mileage, (they said they would fill them for $20 each,


setting the footers used flat iron to help set the footers in the correct locations, for the legs,






backed up to footers and bed lifted (note: the 2x4's are to help support the legs when the bin is being lifted, they were removed when upright,)


legs attached to bolts of footers


bin up right put a chain on the top of the bin, and pulled it up with a come-a-long, (also put a rope) on it so I could control it when over centered going up,




I still have a few finishing touches on the bin before being able to use it,

not bad for no help.

Not bad at all. I put up a small funnel bin last year for holding cow feed. I just poured a slab using quick create that I mixed in my SS bucket. I stood it up with the SS and then installed my leg bolts.

Looks like the dump worked out good. I'm looking at buying two additional used bins now, I might have to borrow that method next time.
