Build a cheap, fast, and reliable gravity deer feeder from a 55-gallon drum. I show exactly how I mark and cut the triangular feed openings, basic PPE, how to tune corn flow by bending the lips, simple ways to anchor the barrel (hog/pig resistant), and what to expect if you skip an internal cone/baffle.
You’ll see:
Tools & safety (grinder, PPE, measuring & marking)
Layout: where to place and size the triangle cuts
Cutting & tuning the openings for proper flow
Barrel placement on pavers + anchor/strap idea
Real test with 50 lb corn (and why a cone empties better)
What to do with leftover corn at the bottom
Quick tip on bad corn/weevils and keeping feed clean
