[QUOTE="76 Bar, post: 1345021, member: 18664"] We made several a few years back. 60 ~ inches of rain from November-April here so had serious doubts. Placed the opening opposite of the prevailing direction of storms and was amazed that the contents remain dry. Pros: Effective even in inclement weather, inexpensive and simple to construct, easily accessible to all categories (sizes) of livestock and to date, proving to be very durable, easy to fill and if so desired, insecticide loaded "Bullets or Flyps" can easily be attached. Cons: If adding bolts to increase stability, drilling through the semi tires is a bit of a challenge and due to their weight, portability is compromised. That said, the pros far out weigh the cons. All things considered, beats the heck out of the $300-400 commercial versions hands down. [/QUOTE]
