The small 6L container (wasn't in the clip) came from the cheesecake shop... It contained the passionfruit topping they use on the cakes & cost us 50cents.. I think that you could also use a round container if it was large enough (so you would have a relatively flat surface) but you would need to secure the pipe work in place with a screw at the top & bottom.. Hamish used a 20l square drum for his which makes a good size feeder as well but only takes around ½ a feed bag..<br />Hope that helps.. Let us know if you need more..<br />bnbob01https://www.blogger.com/profile/03547138866448495441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-986505071821574769.post-29154856785231126772013-01-12T20:20:32.296+10:002013-01-12T20:20:32.296+10:00Hi, I looked everywhere I could think of today, to...Hi, I looked everywhere I could think of today, to find a square container like the one you have used to no avail. :( I found a fitting that I think will work at Bunnings (no help there), could you please tell me where you found your container.
