[QUOTE="oneshotonekill, post: 1337969, member: 635"] Ezbake the feeder will come with a little funnel to put in the bottom of the bucket. I would suggest glueing that in. It will prevent the raccoons from pushing the funnel up in the bucket and emptying it all. They can still spin it but I have found that while they get some they won't empty it completely. There is a bit of a learning curve for the deer...the first time or two it spins while they are around they will bug out but it doesn't last long. I just use corn and they are already hitting it hard. I have just welded up platforms with a ladder on one side for mine. It doesn't have to be really tall maybe 6 foot off the ground. Wish I had pictures of one of mine. They arn't pretty because I just use whatever scrap I have laying around. You will not be sorry going with the kenco....mine worked for 5 years after I dropped the 55 gallon drum on it and crushed it. I rebuilt it with a soup can and jb weld hahaha. The key thing with it is to set it up on a sunny day with at least 3 hours of sunlight left. This lets the light sensor calibrate then it will never need adjusting again. On a cloudy day it feeds a little later than when it is sunny. [/QUOTE]
