It has an in floor bucket elevator, (Meyers, not the company from Dorchester WI). It runs across the floor, up the north side of the crib then at the top dumps the grain/ear corn into the hopper in the top of the crib then the grain or ear corn slides down the slide to which ever bin you put it in, the slide can rotate 360 degrees, and has I think five extensions that you can shove together to make it shorter or pull it out and make it longer. The bucket elevator returns down the south side of the crib and goes under the floor to the north side! There are three doors you can open, two smaller like the one pictured for gravity boxes, and the center is a longer door, so you can use barge wagons/hydraulic dump wagons or a truck, in the center one there is tin work in there with a built in slide so you can regulate the flow of the grain going to the buckets, so not to over load the elevator! Small door on the south side of the elevator, same size as the one pictured, has the oilier system for the chain, and it is a special chain! Then lastly in the third pic is the built in hoist, noticing the I beams fastened to the ceiling with cable winches, and the mechanism on the upper left to run it, there is a thing you run the front tires on and hook the cables to it, runs from the same 5 hp electric motor as the elevator, it is for wagons or strait trucks with no hoist, it will pick a loaded strait truck up to the ceiling! My grandfather built the crib in 1957 and has been used every year since, each side holds 1500 bushels of ear corn.
