Talented Tony

So, I have to brag about my husband a bit more.  What a stud...to take a big ole' pile of metal and turn it into something massive and useful...wowsers!

He has finished his second hopper for an 18-ft diameter bin and is hauling it into Glasgow today to put on the lot of one of the local farm equipment dealers as advertising.  Along with this, he made posters and had his grandpa hang them up all over town. 

Here are some more photos of his hopper project.


The finished project.



An access hole to get into the hopper once attached to the bin.



This is how they flip the hoppers over when needed.



Another picture of the flipping process.
It takes a bit of cooperation with the two tractors and chains.
Honestly, I was a bit nervous watching the process!

Hopefully this business will really take off.  Thankfully he has some local farmers interested already!
