    upload_2014-2-2_21-19-37.png This is one of the bins I was thinking about using. Not good for much of anything else at this point.

    It's worth a shot, if it was me I would try some in there and some regular stacks and see how it goes in a year.

    That is actually a portable cattle corral called an "OK Corral". Made to fold up and pull down the road behind a pickup.

    OO, that is the size we tended to see in my youth. Not many of those left any longer. We sold a farm not too long ago that had 2 bins about 4 times that size or larger, don't remember the bushel capacity, but the new owner quickly tore them down and sold the metal then broke up the cement. It is like a manicured lawn there now.

    Agree that they are of no use for grain anymore. We have a grain cart that holds more than that bin now. If this works it will be a good use for them. Appreciate everyones input. Going to start filling them as soon as time and weather allow. Dry wood we have available will not last forever.
