RE; got the bin up

[super99]

Went to 2 scrap yards in Muscatine after work today and picked up 15 pieces of 2"X1/4 angle iron about 11' long. Bin is 18' tall, need to go probably 16' up with stiffener so I'll have to cut some and weld about 5' on each piece. Then stand them up against the bin and mark where holes need drilled and drill and then put on. Was told I need 1 for each sheet, so I need 8. Angle iron weighed 477# and cost $86. Thanks for all the reply's on the previous post, enjoy a lively discussion, always open to differing ideas and opinions. Will post picture when I get them put on. Chris

Man oh man did you get a deal on the iron! I'm looking for bunch of thick-walled 2"x4" tubing if you happen to run across any. Say, are you east or west of Muscatine?

About 5 miles east into Illinois, mile or so south of HWY 92. If I run across any, I will let you know. Chris
