- Here’s an easy way to make an inexpensive feed auger from pvc pipe and pvc trim available at most hardware stores.
Normal pvc primer and cement can be used to glue it all together.
Good for pelletized feed, crumble, or any similar material really.

I was looking to see if someone else had built a feed auger from pvc pipe......truly appreciate you making this video. I had first thought all-thread and washers but too much expense and work figuring pitch, then thought of pvc and was looking for ideas and found your excellent vid online and this was exactly what I was wanting to do, but with multiple drops for my rabbit cages. I use a hand drill like this on hand grain grinders and hand meat grinders too, always quicker... Great job teaching your daughter as well.....daddy's girls rock! Thanks for this awesome video!
I've been looking to do something similar with some automation. My hat's off to you, pure genius and didn't break the bank to do it.
Exactly what I was looking for. Using your approach, I built the auger I needed to feed the cats.
Thanks for taking the time to show us how it is done.
dude, this is genius . Brilliant video and very very creative, i will most definitely use your concept on my poultry. Many thanks for your video , keep up the good work ...
You're amazing! This is going to help me a lot when it comes to feeding my chickens. 👏
WOW! been looking for something like this. Thanks for sharing.
Needed this for my project but had no idea what the name was. Thank you for the content.
great video - very inspirational - thank you for your work
brilliantly simple and great video. Those with the most modest of technical abilities should be able to figure this out.
I watched your burn Burrell build excellent channel!!! Keep up the great videos !! New sub!!
I'm going to try to utilize this with an automatic koi feeder. great video. Thanks
Man, thanks for this video. This is just what I need.
Great idea I am going to slightly modify your idea and use it to drill shallow water level monitoring wells below the water table in loose sand.
Wow! Pretty good job.
Brilliant. This I can do. I am going to try this for feeding corn.
Dudeee.... this is great!
wowwww-.... excellent idea friend. Greetings from Colombia.
Thanks brother its very useful for me
Good job, well done brother
Brilliant ty for sharing
Brilliant!
very clever!
Ótima ideia!! - Brasil.
love the video just what i was looking to make can you add a parts list to the description please and agian great video
Dude. You won the internet. OMG how cool.
I'm looking for a way to transfer sand & Portland cement from a knee high hopper up to about 5 feet, just enough to feed a spinning 5 Cubic Foot mixer. You might have the right idea. Bravo!
You end up doing this? If so any update?
@@shawnstrittmatter4783 No, I did not. I'm close to ordering a "flexible screw conveyor" from a supplier I found on Alibaba. It's like 100mm x 4 meter (4"x17') with a 3kw motor on the output end. The price is just under $300, but with shipping to the Port of Tampa would be an additional $500. I live nearby and can pick it up, but...I've never purchased an item that way and am nervous about the security of such a transaction.
I'd like to buy from an American supplier, but try to find one that actually posts prices! It's always "Contact for quote". From what I can tell, an American made one would be in the THOUSAND$$$ It's like they don't care about little people like I am. Oh well.
But Alibaba suppliers are hungry for our business. Unlike American suppliers. Tsk, tsk.
@@rusosure7 I hear you, did you at least try to build it? I'm definitely going to try this week as I am only trying to mix aircrete. Flex auger / chicken feeder looks like a pretty good resource as well
Perfeito nota dez 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
1” steel bar then a 3/4 pvc pipe good stuff I guess one is OD and the other is ID. Good stuff my friend.
Thank you
I like how you used the PVC trim for the auger flight......how did you attach it to the pipe, with PVC. Glue or something else?
I may have the craziest use for your idea, I’m researching composting toilets, and am planning on designing a “no touch” system and building it into a custom Overlanding Rig I’m working on.
excellent
Would it work with 3/4in moulding and a different size pipe so you could have bigger flighting?
I have a question, is there to make this for a feeder used by a chin? I have a quadriplegic son who could use this so he doesn’t depend on someone to feed him dry goods? It would help him greatly in feeling more independent as well. Thank you
Its a good idea and seems simple...but the video could use some talking (less music) with explanations of what goes where and why. Also a parts list in the description would be appreciated.
Instant subscriber since the burn barrel! But with this invention, I automatically knew where you were going! I just don't know if you were trying to speed feed them or what? That confused me.
How many pounds of corn does this push per minute by using this size of pipe and a basic drill?
excellent, ¿works without shaft?
genius
Archimedes screw! So cool!
How much friction is there between the screw and the outer pipe? I am asking because would it be possible to push water thru the pipe like those screw power generator plants? Or does it only work as a driven element?
It would simply require higher speed😊
What is the fighting made of. 1/4 round?
Has this by chance been tested with pellets of goat feed?
Please the thing you wrapped around the long iron is it pvc and how can I get it
Currently trying to build this myself to use at the beach to feed my sluice box when looking for gold. I just tried to drill out the cap and failed, how did you drill it out for the pipe to fit thru? I can tell ya a spade bit was definitely a bad idea....lol. next idea would be a hole saw but need to figure out a better way of holding on to cap when drilling. great video and exactly the idea I had but wasn't sure how to go about it til now. Actually going to see if I can make it in multiple pieces as that would be ideal for transport and storage.
Curious if you have managed to drill the cap cleanly? Also as a thought to make it portable id imagine you could use couplers but just press fit instead off glue and if those dont hold enough, a wrap of electric tape on the pipes.
@@silver1fangs I ended up using a hole saw in a drill press. Worked well just make sure you the cap clamped in vise and vise clamp well, first almost hurt me real bad as I didn't have vise clamped down well enough.
Did you use pvc glue to attach the quarter round to the pipe? Does the drill spin inside the quarter round if its not glued? Youre wrapping it around 1” metal pipe and then putting it around 3/4” pvc? Seems like it wouldnt match that size. Obviously it works, just trying to figure out a few missing pieces of info.
Have you tried this yet? I just did and used a 1" metal pipe as he said to use and can confirm unless I did something wrong when winding it , its far to big for the 3/4 pvc pipe.
@@hagamansshenanigans2124 No, I realized quickly after asking the question that the amount of feed I wanted to auger is way more than this little thing can handle. I started looking for a professional pan feed system for my 250 chickens.
3/4" PVC pipe is 1.05" O.D. 3/4" steel pipe is also 1.05" O.D. 1" Steel tube is 1" O.D. My guess is he used 3/4" steel pipe, not 1" steel pipe.
1/2 inç boruyu ne ile eşit dikey ve düzgün 4 eşit parçaya kestiniz. ,???
Jo pvc fold ho raha hai wo kaha milega please bataye
What’s the name of that pipe that inside spinning???
What do you call the white triangular thing that you made spiral sir?
trying to figure that out too. some kind of plastic molding?
1/2" PVC quarter round you can find at HD or Lowes.
It’s call pvc trim for molding houses
What size is the 1/4 section?
Boa tarde como eu código de material
How did you the exact spacing when coiling it on the steel pipe sir?
Looks like he marked the pipe
That’s very cool
Fun provide this , what is price range
You should be wearing a respirator when heating up pvc. It releases toxic hydrogen chloride gas .
Can anyone help me identiy the parts on 5:21? Thank you
If you ever wanted to make and sell one would you? How much? Thank you for your time.
this name material spiral plastic, please make more hole from feed chickens
Yes ok
I love you...
what do you call the triangle type pipe?
Great question! It is called “quarter round” moulding and it’s a piece of PVC plastic trim sold at large hardware stores. It is sometimes also called “shoe”. Dimensionally it is 1/2” tall by 1/2” wide, and being PVC plastic softens very easily with a heat gun. Have fun!
@@BuildingStuffIsFun What is the diameter of the inside pipe that the 1/2" shoe wraps around? What is the diameter of the external pipe? What kind of drill bit drives the internal pipe?
ooops... I should have watched more carefully.... I see you mentioned 3/4" pipe on the inside and 2" on the outside.
@@BuildingStuffIsFun Nice design! Nice way to encourage the future generation!
Excuse my ignorance. How is this practical over just using a scoop from the feed bag into a five gallon bucket then carried to the chickens?
its for automatic process
.
make. more. videos, plz.
.
Good luck finding square PVC pipes
It’s not square pipe. watch till the end and you’ll have the answer to what he uses.
Awesome job, but the music has to go.
