"Shop Vac" Chicken Feeder
The motor was originally bolted into the top of the machine and formed part of the cover. He removed the motor and covered the hole left in the cover by screwing on a piece of plywood. Then he used a saber saw to make feeding ports, cutting six 2-in. sq. slots into the perimeter of the vac about 4 in. up from the bottom.
“I use it to feed a few chickens that I keep on my place. The feed always stays dry, even when it’s used outside,” says Mathern. “I can still snap the cover on or off, which makes it easy to fill.”
