"Crust Buster" Stops Bin Plug-Ups
Called the "Crust Buster", it's designed to be installed before you fill the bin. The unit consists of lengths of 1/2-in. dia. steel rod forming a tripod that measures 20 in. wide at the base and 2 ft. high. A center-mounted rod fits into a peg in the bin's sump that's normally used to support a sweep auger. A 3-in. spike on top of the tripod breaks the crust, and the unit's sloping sides push it off to the side so grain can flow through.
The Crust Buster fits all size bins and sells for $100 plus S&H.
