Installing a Roof on a Sioux Grain Bin

- The roof is usually the halfway point in building the bin. Once that is up, the sidewalls can immediately start being added on.

Thanks Ryan for taking the time to put the video together. Lot of work but hopefully will give the family many years of service. Someday you will think back on the day you, brother and dad helped put that big bin up.
your jacks sure look a lot better then what we used back in the 70's. your cordless driver sure is a improvement.
I helped build my uncles 40X80 machinery shed in the 80s;it s a half-moon top made by Ungava in St-Hubert,QC ;we assembled the arches on the ground and the tractor with a charger bucket lifted and putted them in place.It took us about a week to install;i used a spanner like Ryan to hold screws while they were thightend and i had to use ropes to not slide down!They poured cement at the bottom of the arches to hold them.
love watching and learning how these things get built. Thanks
We wish a healthy, peaciful and happy new year for you . Best Regards AYKUT COSKUN .
Ryan looks like its going to be a really nice Bin , you are doing a great job putting it together too , keep up the great work !!
Reminds me of the days my brother and spent finishing the tops on some Cobey forage wagons. They were bolted to the wagon, but needed bolts across the top between sections. I sat on top pushing bolts through and holding them with a wrench, while he stood inside on a ladder spinning on nuts with a ratchet.
O that brings back memories!! When your done u will be sick of seeing nuts an bolts
Another great video Ryan.
This whole project is very interesting as I've had nothing to do with grain bins of any type. It's great to see how it's done.
It's a bit like assembling some tower crane types. Assemble all the top pieces then jack it up and put another ring section on under it. Then jack it up again and put another ring section underneath that one. Repeat until the desired hight is reached.
I hope you have time to get some drone footage of it as it goes up in stages.
Looking forward to the next video.
Regards from Aus.
Very cool Ryan. Thanks for sharing this with us.
It's like putting together an Erector Set model. Just on a very larger scale! :) I've got an Erector Set from 1938 and all the stuff is there and still works great!
I used to build Brock/chore time grain bins for a millwright company in Zeeland,mi. Alot of work physically, especially moving the sheets around all day
looks awesome so far Ryan! when we put our GSI bin up i wish i would have video taped it. but your right it is alot of work but a really cool process! good luck with the rest!
Lookin' good! Keep on wrenchin'!!!
I knew that was going to be a big job, it took us with friends and family a few days to get that thing up.
Nice view of putting it togethor
This is what I can remember about the 10,000 bushel bin we installed 20 years ago. Lots of bolts, sharp edges, and sore knees and back. We also did not have these nice cordless impact drivers that we have today. All we had was air wrenches. Oh I forgot all the noise. Like working inside a drum set with no hearing protection. No wonder I can't hear now.
Hundreds and hundreds of bolts from what I recall. The fun part is yet to come as you see it rise up to it's full height.
I have that same 18v dewalt set love it use the impact daily
I'm not sure if you took my suggestion about the time lapse or were going to do it anyway but it's great. You have to show us how the whole roof and side sections are raised. The talk over part of the video was great. I've always been a 'how it's made' person and you our friend are showing us just that. Thanks!
Thanks Jay, I'll go back and watch again before I watch today. Hope Ryan has another today. I love to watch How Farms Work and oneloneylfarmer and look for their videos daily.
We did a small one on our place and the roof is the hardest part of it i think, once you start on the wall sheets it gets easier, brother-in-law brought down a 60 gallon compressor and some air wrenches and it went quick
very cool perspective video
I just assembled an IKEA computer chair, so I know exactly how you feel.
Very interesting! :-) Never though there was so much manual labor involved.
just in time manufacturing at it's finest
i love your videos and i am from sioux falls
hi can you do a video on what cameras and staffy you head
did you made on your own the ladder at the center?
i grow up were most dairy farmers has the regular ground silage silofor grass as for feed corn
Have you guys started corn or beans yet, my uncle just finished beans and is now working on corn.
Sioux bin and Sukup bin seems similiar and make similar products. I read those companies goes to court alot.
Similar products, different designs
Ryan- obviously you were not present when the smaller bins were built. Did you get a quote from the bin guys to put it up. Let us know when your done if you would build another yourself or have the pros do it. They are a lot of work, BTDT. Thanks. ( the cordless drilldrivers make a world of difference.)
+Douglas Laramie I was around when the smaller bin was built, I was 7 at the time and watched everyone work. Our helps was not included in building it but we helped anyway.
I gotta ask......How many bolts?
question how do you harvest both corn and grain with the same conbine i know theres different headers but aren't those just to get it in the conbine?
It used to be a lot harder than it is nowdays... in the old days you had to add cylinder filler plates between the rasp bars and sometimes remove concave wires or sections. Nowdays most of the threshing components are standardized (especially now with rotary combines) and basically it's just changing a set of adjustments.
If you have an older 9500 cylinder/concave combine like theirs or a 9600 like my brother-in-laws, you just change heads, then manually change the chaffer and sieve adjustments using a lever/wrench at the back of the machine. Then you change the cylinder speed and concave clearance and cleaning fan speed from inside the cab using electrical adjusters controlled by buttons or switches. You also want to speed up the feederhouse (header) drive for the cornhead, or slow it down all the way for the platform header so you don't overspeed the sickle drive wobble box. The rest is just adjusting the header as needed-- stripper plate clearance on corn heads, and reel height and speed on platform heads.
If you have a newer combine made in the last few years or so, most of the adjustments are done with a single button or by selecting the crop you're switching to inside the combine on the touch screen... the beginning settings for the combine's thresher, separators, and cleaning shoe are all pre-programmed into the computer and it makes the adjustments automatically when you press the button... so the hardest thing is changing the head over, and with modern slip-on PTO-type header driveshafts, bulk connectors that couple all the hydraulics and electronic connectors with the pull of a lever, it's really about as easy as it can possibly be...
Later! OL J R :)
dumb question I'm sure but is that all the taller the bin is?
+dieseltech001 1 Patience grasshopper. More videos to come.
How tall will it get? I'm guessing that is not it, seems really short.
I'm assuming since he said 36' which usually refers to the diameter of the bin and according to the Sioux website means at 20k bushels it will be 33' tall.
I live in sioux Falls
sides should be easier
we have 9 80,000bushel bins. I know how you feel
ahh it's a baby bin... in bin drying is a thing of the 80's... need to get yourself a nice new dryer..
I live In the heart of the city were yer not supposed to be a country boy
Being country is in the heart, not the home!
Ryan, you and your brother Travis your the man anybody get on aluminum roof sun reflecting off the aluminum hot then hell burning your ass brother your the man to be proud of:we had to fix the roof of our born after a storm six 45 degree angle had be tied off hot then hell on tin
