Wanted to get some opinions on grain bin forms. Looking to move s couple 21' 7000 by bins and trying to do most everything ourselves to save money. Gonna do 18" footer and called local shop to make forms. 1/8" steel 18" tall and 10' long. They're gonna put 90 degree bends in each end and drill holes so I can bolt em together. Was gonna weld some square tubing on myself to put rerod stakes thru. 1200 bucks they quoted me. Plus I'd have s little more into stake pockets. This is for 14 sheets, enough to do 2 bins at ounce. Think it's worth it? I thought about using lap siding cause it would be cheaper but I can only get 12 inches tall. Plywood sounds like it sucks. I could get half as many but then have to do the project and pour twice. Also with more sheets I could do larger bins in the future. Any thoughts/opinions?


Why bother with the 90 degree bends , lap them together with a 4" splice and bolt them together.
