Ladder Cage For Grain Bin

Ladder Cage For Grain Bin GRAIN HANDLING Accessories Lester Adelman Rice Minn made a safety cage for the ladder on his grain bin from a round corn crib panel “I bent the panel around a 50-gal barrel to get the nice round shape and then cut it to length A 1/2-in dia steel rod was bent and then welded to the top and bottom of the cage to help stabilize the cage and to round off the sharp edges where the panel was cut “We welded angle iron to the cage and used some strap iron to bolt it to the sides of the ladder using existing holes The angle iron stiffened the cage so it’s very solid “I feel a lot more secure climbing up and down the bin with this cage in place ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Lester Adelman 3225 125th St N E Rice Minn 56367 ph 320 393-2741; ladlmn@jetup net
