Hello,
We are looking into bulk purchasing feed from one of several feed stores in close proximity. It is more cost and time efficient for us. However, we do not want to spend thousands of dollars on grain silos especially since we are looking at 1-2 ton capacity. Has anyone ever built their own large quantity food bins and/or have any advice? We will be designing the mini-silos with our CAD (Computer-aided drafting) software to get all the dimensions correct. We will be purchasing steel sheets from our engineering companies supplier then welding them. Ahh, the beauty of living with an engineer who refuses to pay for something he can build
Again, the plan has not laid out to its full extent but would anyone be interested in seeing the CAD design once we get them finalized? And of course pictures when we finally execute!
Feel free to call us crazy, my family gives me this look
