Latimer, Iowa (north central) | Looking at the Meridian bolt together smooth wall hoppers in the larger sizes. 23.5 foot diameter, 60' or so tall, 15,500 bushels. They do not have any bolts that go through the sidewalls of the bin or hopper. Needing bins that cleanout completely with no, or minimal, potential for cross contamination for the oat mill project. Our GSI hoppers on the farm will leave a few kernel/grains on top of each bolt head and every bolt is a hole... I really like the vent pipes on them too. Only issue is the are about double the price per tonne as a galvanized hopper.
There is a bin about a mile east of Winkler on the north side of the road as a wet bin. Big farm and an interesting dump/scale combo too. There are no bins like it closer to us yet so a trip to your area and back! Drove in fog from here till 10 km from Winkler, then fog all the way home again. Didn't get to see near as much as I would like.
Not trying to steal your thread Boone! Conditions there looked pretty average for riding, but better than nothing.
