	This storage bin fits 180 cu. ft. of bulk feed. Approximately weight is 3.5tons. It is made from lumber (2x4s 2x3s and 2x6s for posts,studs,sills), 1/2" exterior grade plywood at the sides, 3/4" ext. plywood at the bottom, 2x6s rafters/joists, 2x8 beams. Wood is chosen as it regulates better the humidity than a metal bin and does not "sweat". Probably some rodent proofing has to be done.
