Well we went a completely different route with something more durable and a little less troublesome. I didn't like the idea of having the motor inverted, submerged in 500 lbs of corn, and a 6" extension held on with a pinch bolt. I put the motor underneath, and bent up a box and emt to keep everything protected from the critters. The bin is completely framed on the inside with 1.5" square tubing, I'm pretty confident it could fall out of the truck and still be usable.

That's looking really good!
When do you expect to have pricing/availability?

Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

The fill sight also is nice touch, just drive by and you can see how much corn is in it.

Looks great , nicely done. Everything looks varmit proof and lid looks like a solid piece
Skids are nice added design in case of need to move slightly or align with your shooting lane
