Good ideas. You could also use plastic to make the tube: perhaps a small trash can, cut the bottom out of it. Or use a larger plastic bucket, simply cut the plastic, and pop rivet it to make the right diameter tube. Left over pieces of aluminum flashing would also work well. Size your tube to fit a 6 - 8" cake pan which would be the lid.
:goodpost:wonderful & thank you for your ideas...!!! i have almost new food grade 5 gallon buckets , i am using them and they already have lids, and then all i need is the bottom pan, i been looking around and will go price checking, for the black plastic oil pan, or large flower pot bottom pans , which ever one cost less, thats the one...! im getting..!! HA, so almost free is better then buying it all...!! is my motto...!!:thumbsup:yesss::highfive::woot
 
i found this on you tube , i love this idea & will make all my nest boxes like this, so check it out its a great idea...! its a good way to make an egg box that rolls the egg into a safe box, so the egg eaters cant break the eggs...! i have one hen that breaks the eggs but which one is she ..? out of my 75 hens HA...? so this is perfect for my situation...!:thumbsup:yesss::celebrate

That's awesome Dharma! What a find! You can always take down one panel of the fence to get it through, then put the panel back up (if it's a typical 6'wood privacy fence). I'm sure you'll figure something out. :thumbsup
 
It's chain link. I think I will get some teenage boys to help. I don't have to worry until I finish it, until then it will go on the carport. I'm not sure how I'm going to do it yet, I'm looking at pictures of coops, one of my favorite past times.
 
Love to recycle / reuse and am thinking of making floor with political signs. Do I need to contact the person campaigning for permission to take their sign after voting?
 
I want to make a tractor for my Polish, and separate them from the Brahmas. For now I want something attractive and cute, since it will go on my front lawn. Any suggestions?
