Round Bale Sheep Feeder

Not to steal thunder from Premier 1's big bale feeder found here:

But with some time and tools, a close approximation can be made with feed store cattle panels (which Premier 1 says are inferior to theirs... I've never seen theirs, but I figure that the freight charges would be cost prohibitive).

I figured for a six-foot- diameter bale, three-foot panels (which ended up cut at 40 inches).  I think for five-foot bales the panels could have been in two-foot or 30-inch segments.

I'll make another one for the goats.  Still needing to be added to the sheep feeder is a roof to shed rain.
