Great pics and a great homemade feeder! You have inspired me to try building one. I have a problem with bear ripping up my stuff so I will have to expand the base to keep it from being pushed over.

No the coons still get to the spinner if you look at the pic you will see a coon hanging off of it. But it never made that big of a diffrence. I would have to dump some corn on the groud everytime I came to fill it because it would not use what I thought it should have. It is set up on a solor charger so I never had to worry about the batterie, but the coons did rip the wires out one time. In the last two pics it is the same place I had to take down the feeder due to the ban, so I dont even use it anymore. That is why I am putting in a food plot this year. So hopfully I will get some good pics from that.
I did not get any of the bucks last year so I hope they are still there, it is only 100 acers plus there is alot of the neighbors that hunt. What I dont get is you see the deer all year long, at all times of the day, (and I mean in person not a pic). But then when its hunting season you see nothing. I did see a group of 11 does last year and I got one of them. Plus I got a wounded spike at 165 yards that I thought was a doe.
