i was just curious about connecting piping to walthers' new head house kit. where would pipes from the leg conveyors be connecting to the head house itself? photos of the kit does not show where.
The Walthers illustration shows the delivery tubes running down from the elevator to the head house. The key is that the elevator 'leg' is taller than the top of the storage silos. Large grain storage bins many times are emptied via an underground 'drag line' that goes to the pit in the elevator leg. Loading the bins is normally done with tubes from the elevator. There is a lot of good elevator information on the Internet - just search on grain elevator.....
