Yahoo!! I just got done with my PVC deer feeder! It has a 5-gallon pail ($2.98 + .99 for lid) which is on top of a 5' piece of 4" PVC ($8.99) that has a 4" PVC wye on the bottom ($3.29) that splits it into two forks and each fork has a 4" atrium grate ($4.96/ea) on the end rodents from entering. I glued the PVC stuff together using Plumbing Goop ($2.97) and after the Goop glue stuff dried I put duct tape around it tightly.
All-in-all it cost me about $29.14 (not including tax) to make. I will have pictures up soon. I do not know yet how much feed it can hold but I bought a 50 pound bag of corn and I'll see how far that gets me.
So stay tuned for my next post, it'll have pictures and instructions with it.
/Yeh man id really like to see some pics and instructions...Thanks!!
