Title: pig pipes - how do you make them? Post by: hoghunterdfw on June 08, 2011, 11:39:22 am Ok so I am going to build some pig pipes out of PVC and fill em with corn.
1. How big diameter of a pipe should I use? How long should it be? 2. What drill bit size do you use to drill holes so the corn will come out? 3. How many holes do you drill in it for the corn to spill out and do you just put them all over up and down the pipe? 4. I was going to attach an I-bolt or something like that and chain it to a tree. Is that the best way to keep it attached to the ground? I have heard that pigs will move them far away from where you put them so I need the best way to secure it. What are some other ways of securing it? Thanks for all the help. Title: Re: pig pipes - how do you make them? Post by: DangerZone on June 08, 2011, 11:55:16 am I gonna E-mail you some pic's

Post by: DangerZone on June 08, 2011, 12:06:26 pm I drive a t-post down good and solid then slip a piece of 2'' pipe about 18'' long over the post so the loop on the end of the chain will slip around without binding, if there is nothing for the chain or pipe to catch on they'll root the pipe around and around the post till all the corn is gone.
