I have no experience at all, other than what I hear at the coffee shop & see as I drive to farm auctions..... So take it for what its worth..... Shell corn puts much more force on the sidewalls than ear corn does. Be sure you have a good strong frame to begin with. Might need to cable around the bottom a few times to increase strength. Wind plays heck with your bin when it is empty. The sheet tin doesn't get supported much, and a strong wind will push in one side of the new tin - when empty. Typically one hangs vertical sheets insid the bin. As the pressure of the corn expands the tin, the seams like to leak, as well as water in under the bottom - we don't make as good a seal on the bottom with this type of construction as we think we do. Have to be careful or water seeps in, lots of spoilage along the outside. Those are the items I notice from a distance. --->Paul
