    Do you have it mounted in the box. I'd like to see some close up pics of the construction.

    I took a 2" thick piece of wood and used a jig saw to cut it in a circle to fit inside of the pipe , then screwed it to the plywood , then set the pipe over the 2" piece of wood and screwed the pipe to it ..

    Oh yea , if anybody makes one and paints the pvc pipe , sand it with sandpaper / sander first , it helps with getting the paint to adhere better and with static electricity

    We use to do the same thing way back in the day but we would duck tape it to a tree that was before feeders ever came out. Works well use to fit 50lbs in it.

    We use to run something similar only coons and possums would clean it out in a hurry and hogs would tear em up so we went to a bit of a different style.
