Looking to buy a new ground fill feeder that won't break the bank. Looking online at the Spintech site and thinking about the Gamemaster 285lb Capacity 6 Volt Digital Control Unit. Haven't bought a feeder in a long time and this is priced right for me, any opinions?

That feeder will not be very stable IMO. Hog or cattle could knock it over easily. These would be more stable and better control units also. You can get them with the eliminator spin plate or regular style spinner plate. https://www.allseasonsfeeders.com/Products.aspx/Stand__and__Fill
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

PM Ramball on here. He built one for me for a great price. It is very sturdy, and should last a life time. I am sure he could build you a smaller version if that is what you wanted.

I don't have pigs so this works for me. It's very wide at the bottom. The only thing I'd change is put a 12-volt motor to throw it a little further. It's about 7' tall.

Due to finances, etc.. I got the Spintech Gamemaster. Now I just have to assemble the thing. It has the stake holes on the feet so I can stake it down good. Lets see. Thanks everyone for the comments/advise.

Guy has a Diamond 600# stand and fill in the Classifieds for $575. Not exactly cheap but a good price on a feeder that will last a long, long time.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.
