We needed a feeder for the horse and 2 cows in our back yard , but didn't want to spend cash on one.
So this is what I came up with. Every thing I used to build this unit was repurposed at least once.
My wife came up with the idea of using our old wood box which was actually repurposed from a steel material crate years ago. We needed something for the front and back sides so I went out and dug up some oil 1x material that I had salvaged and made bean poles out of a few years ago. I cut them down screwed them
to the sides and I produced a feeder instead of consuming one . I also saved several pieces of material from the landfill.
As you can see it was a hit with the backyard friends .
A little imagination can work magic when in need .
