DIY Kit To Build Guardrail Feed Bunk
“Guardrail lasts forever, and a lot of farmers have it laying around or can easily buy it from local sources,” says owner Steve Pickart. He designed a way to use guardrails to make bottomless feed bunks.
“I sell the end pieces and a middle to work with 26-ft. guardrail,” says Pickart. He forms and bends the steel and drills 4 holes in each piece to line up with guardrail holes. The steel pieces are 38 in. at the bottom, 44 in. at the top and 2 ft. tall.
Cost is $210 for the three pieces, which weigh about 200 lbs.
“We can ship by truck all over the U.S.,” Pickart says.
