I have decided on a dual fuel corn/pellet stove. Since I live in an agricultural region, plan is to burn mostly (if not all) corn. My question is what is the best, easiest way to handle the corn.

Was also thinking of "making" a grain bin out of gravity wagon. Could use a regular grain bin, but they are pretty spendy. Other question...am I going to have to purchase or make a cleaner for the corn? The bagged corn is pre-cleaned...but if I buy locally it won't be. Thanks for any input you might have!
