Dave at kelton Posted May 16, 2020 Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 We used to cut a flap out either side at the bottom, lift flap to about 45degrees and pop rivet the perforated steel use for reinforcing plasterwork. Use the larger grade and when they peck the wheat falls through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted May 16, 2020 Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 As above, you can do it posh and pop rivet some bits of tin either side to stop water getting in ad a bit of sealant, but really not necessary.. The other alternative is a tray set up underneath as per photo. I use the thin metal sheets from the side of IBC containers for them. Bends easily and simple to pop rivet.
