Hoping to have 1 or 2 finished pics of everyones grain mill on here. I know there are several good ones out there and they inspired me to build mine - Revvy, Rocky, etc.

Here is mine

Here is my DIY mill. Yes the capacitor is hanging.....took pic before it had been secured.

We call it "The Grim Crusher." The legs fold up and the unit stores nicely on a shelf, taking up no floor space. It's just tall enough to slip a 5-gal bucket under and not have dust blowing around. The chain is a nickle plated go-cart chain. The Bodine gearmotor has enough torque to chew rocks...I made the Plexiglas chain guard before a finger was eaten by the beast. It'll chew through 35 lbs of grain in about 10 minutes. I do NOT miss having to turn that crank by hand.
