The stress on those legs will be immense when you fill that 55 gallon barrel with corn from an engineering stand- point. I would advise installing a yoke connecting each leg to each other to reduce gravity stress. Three pieces of preferably flat steel ( or fence pipe) bolted into the existing legs. The lower the installation of the yoke on the existing legs the more force it will be able to withstand. Mid height would be sufficient. Once that barrel is filled to capacity without the yoke just simply shake the barrel slightly and all will become evident. Yoke it and see the difference. If those barrel legs fail when you are filling the barrel with corn, there could be a serious injury. You must remember that a 55 gal drum filled with liquid is almost 500 lbs. Now corn is not liquid obviously but you get the point. (350-400 lbs. for corn)

Yeah, most of the stand feeders you can buy don’t have that, but I wish they did. I think that is a great add to any tripod feeder. Trying to get the legs stabilized and level is also very difficult, that would help a lot with that. Great suggestion! Thanks for watching and the good suggestion!

I don’t recommend metal drums. They sweat on the inside due to temperature difference between inside vs outside. That means mold. Plastic allows the two temps to balance out better. Just a thought.

That is very interesting, I have a handful of metal drums for corn and haven’t had issues, but I could see that causing an issue for sure with protein. That is a good tip! Thank you

@@ZManOutdoors I sell barrels. I get tips and feedback from thousands of customers every year for the past 8 years. Its amazing what you learn. Now if you put a bag of silica or salt on top of the feed its not a problem. Absorbs it all.

That is very interesting, I will keep that in mind on my next one! The plastic was definitely easier to work with too!

Metal drums are just as good as plastic. They don't sweat no more or no less. The trick is getting ventilation no matter the barrel. Generally, either will get enough air from the feeding tube. I've had metal barrels out for over a year in continuous use with no issue

Thanks for watching! Yeah I went out to hunt hogs and coyotes. But honestly I haven’t picked up hogs on any of my cameras in over a month. Not sure what’s going on with that. But that’s great keep working on the management, it never stops.
