try your local feed store I used a rubbermaid one and built a frame around it it works well.

Try farm and fleet, I've seen them there. The largest in the store was 90 gal. They may have larger in the yard.

Also i know of 4'x2' is that the largest size?

dude, pick up the phone, get on the internet, and find out for yourself. it is fine to ask for help with the IDEA here, but don't ask someone to hold your hand for every friggin question!

my area may be different from your area, which is different from his area. call around to your feed lots and find out about sizes and pricing, it isn't hard at all.

not that i haven't made that exact material available at our site for the last 3 or 4 years anyway, but you aren't looking hard enough. you gotta do your own homework, mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

I didn't price them at that time. I know of a feed store on hwy. 164 in Brookfield, its just north of Capitol dr. If you decide to call around get dimentions, as the one I saw at farm and fleet was narrow and tall. But chances are they have larger ones in the yard, I would think. If you decide to call around let me know what you find out. I may go that route yet. Later

According to Clint's post, you may be from Wisconsin?? The troughs are carried at:

Fleet Farm in Germantown
Farm Fleet in Waukesha
Menards (all over)
Waukee Mills in Waukesha

I'm sure other places have them too, these are just a few places that I know of for sure. They have metal and heavy plastic troughs of different designs and sizes. Good luck.
