Thread: An Idea I came up with on a cold Winter's day

    An Idea I came up with on a cold Winter's day



    Maybe it is CABIN FEVER , but I came up with this idea for a sawdust storage bin for outside of the workshop in the shape of the old Unidilla(SP?) wood silos It is just on the drawing board right now. What do you think? Would something like this work for holding sawdust? Building a wood silo would be the easy part. The hard part would be to find and or custom make a silo unloader that would be scaled down in size to fit it. Like i said, it must be CABIN FEVER!!

    hey guys....are you gonna empty that often....Would it be safe< I mean spontanious combustion would be something to think about. I know there have been barns around here burned to the ground from hay doing that.

    reg, right now i do the snow shovel trash can thing and pay to have a dumpster tipped. my intentions are to use augers to transport the waste to the dumpster. i have no intentoin of stockpiling sawdust, bobs statement about "unloaders" is what piqued my interest. on a busy week i`ll have a 3yrd dumpster tipped every day, that`s about 20-25 trashcans per day! so i`m really interested in this concept....02 tod
