I will have my son put a picture on here tomorrow as a new thread. He built ours. Basically we use a small angle iron base that sits on the reinforced edges of the sump. Then we run angle up from each corner to to meet as a pryamid type structure. Put flat iron on edge halfway up from anle iron to angle iron. Then run a pipe down to sit in the swing auger hole and reinforce the pipe from side to side so it is stable. The main probelm in a bin is a wet or frozen chunk that forms in the peak of the grain. As it moves down toward the sump the diverter will either make it smaller or deflect it away from the sump. Will have the picture tomorrow.
