Here is my 24 ft dia bin going back together using a Gehl squirt boom fork lift. Hauled the bin about 10 miles in two pieces, the top and bottom you see here. Used an old house trailer frame with some cross beams to catch the right and left sides.
Made some lifting brackets to pick the bottom rings out of some 4 inch channel iron, split some 2 inch pipe in half and welded to the channel where a bin ring corrigation would be. Drilled some holes to fasten the bin ring to the channels. Used 4 channels with some long 3/8 spreader cables (wire rope for the correct police)to pick up the bottom rings. Used a combine tire to lift to roof and rings.
Since a RTF does not have a winch at the top, built a bracket to clamp a boat winch and used it to pull the combine tire up into position and to lower it down once the bin was up. Did not use the winch to lift the bin but transferred the sling to the lifting latch on the fork lift boom.
