| I assume he was talking about going with a Big Jim.............Its above the feed on top, feed falls down a formed chimney(When its filled) in the middle of the silo to a conveyor in the bottom. I was only ever around two, and I think the dealers who put them in had alot to do with it, because one worked like a POS, while the other of the same vintage was amazing. If it works right its a heck of a setup, but with that said, I wonder what a new one costs these days, I am sure its not cheap, but I also imagine what was done with electrical switch contactors on the original Jamesway versions has been cleaned up alot with modern electronics and that probably makes them work even better yet. I know they have put up some tower silos in Lancaster with a drive under alley in the bottom instead of a conveyor, and I was told they can really spit the feed out with not much headache. | |
