    You will need a 5ft section of pvc pipe in 5" diameter, a y section to fit to, 3 caps, glue, drill, and small drill bit.

    Take and glue the y to the long section, then glue a cap to the bottom of the y. Next small holes in the cap (the holes should be smaller than the feed!)

    put the cap on the open section of the y and fill the feeder up with feed (you might want to duct tape the holes so none falls out) The holes are for water drainage! Now put the cap on the very top and carry it to your designated area and tie it to a tree upright. Take off the cap to the y and your finished.

    You can see when to fill it back up again and the holes in the bottom are for water drainage when it rains. Its enough to feed your deer, but small and light enough for one person to manage!

    I did mine with 4" pvc, and I didnt put caps on it, and I used a 45 degree bend on the bottom not a Y so that I could get the corn to spread out on the bottom for two reasons, 1 i didnt want to spread ehd by containing it in the Y part, and 2 it would spread out on the ground and I could get more deer on 1 pic than just 2 or 3 at most.

    I used to use one. I have somewhat stopped using corn and stuff and just do mineral licks now. Good for someone to do though and good spot for a cam too. thanks for sharing
