Need input on this. Still perfecting the idea but the concept is to slide the over a t-pole and make it high enough where only deer can eat out of it. [img]http://s59.photobucket.com/user/joematties/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0176.jpg.html[/img]

That's innovative looks like it should work.
Only problem I see is the openings facing up if your planning on feeding protien it could get wet and corn could sour.

Yeah that's why it's not big. It has drains in the bottom. I'm hoping the corn doesn't last long enough to go bad. Needs to just last a week till I fill it up again. Proton and stuff won't work cause it swells. But Corn should be good

How much does it hold?

And maybe a dumb question….but what is holding it on place (and not letting it slide down)?

Be interested to see what big hogs will do to it if you mount it over a T-post. Put a TC on to see what the hogs do around it.

Should hold 2 bags of corn. I have a pipe flange under the canisters clamped on so I can adjust it. It won't slide down. I'm curious how the hogs will react also. I have a real big aggressive hog in my area but I may shot him this weekend to avoid him tearing up this feeder. Should be fairly strong and with nothing for them to get up on it should be hard for them to reach I hope.
