Grain bin panels

Dave Meisner · Apr 10, 2014

Hi, just purchased several hundred feet of grain bin panels and would like to use them for wind breaks. Have any of you guys ever tried to straighten out these galvanized panels? Any advise on how to do it without causing a crease that could rust? Thanks.

They might be stronger and stand up better if you alternate the
curves so that you get a wavy wall. There is a term for fences
shaped like this but I can't get it into my mind right now, maybe
someone else on here knows it.

Dave do like Zack says they are impossiable to straighten.

Could take one panel and back over it with one of your big tractor's. It might straighten it out.

Sinusoidal!? Jim

I'm thinking the only way you'll get them straight
is to put them in a slip roll whose rolls match the
pattern of your panels. So that's not going to
happen as new steel would be cheaper. Do like Zach
said build a wall alternating the curve..you know
one big s curve wall. Wonder it you could do a
building or pit silo that way?
