Royal Family Feeder

Have a novel idea for a piece of equipment? Or a re-purpose of an old piece of equipment?

Built this for the Royal family (my belties nicknamed by the breeder we bought them from) but they stand out in the rain anyway. At least it keeps their hay dry.

The girls are due within the next 3-4 weeks. They actually look like OREO's from the front now.

I've also been working on making gates to direct the Royal family into it. Built this bender and tested it last night. Bending 1 1/4 x 0.100" square Steel Tubing. Started with a 6ft handle and think I'll upgrade to a 12ft handle before I break something in my pants.
The first picture is the vertical end of the gate 56" high. All the rest of the bars with be horizontal.
