My dad and I have put up 4 bins in the last few years. 3 used, and one new Sukup. All went about the same. You need a set of bin jacks if your gonna do it yourself. They go up pretty easily once you catch on to how the fit together. Whatever you do, get a full floor. If you go to the Sukup web page you can surf around and see what I mean. If you ever plan on drying in it, you need the air tubes they sell that go along the bin wall. If you plan on doing it yourself, make sure to check the weather for about 5 days out. Took dad and I a day to get the top ring and most of the roof together, then figure 3 rings a day. It could be done faster, though. Full floor lets you put an unload in it. If you run a Sukup unload, 8" is plenty. We've got a 10" in one and a 10" Westfield auger can't keep up. Cost, I'm not sure, figure $150 a bushel, I'd guess. Any other questions, feel free to e-mail me. Be glad to help. Aaron SEIA
