My dad and grandfather built a new wire corn crib during the fall of 1970 or 1971. It was a round wire crib with a corn sheller drag tunnel formed (depressed) into the concrete. The crib was manufactured in Charles City, Iowa by the Walsh Company. It really looked like a bunch of livestock panels that you connected together with vertical rods. I did attach a sales brochure. The bottom ring was made, then filled with corn. Standing on the corn you built the second ring and filled it with corn. I believe there were four rings and of course the metal roof.

There were no cracks in the concrete when I removed it. Took a large excavator a couple hours to get it broke up. I remember he got a big chunk broke off and started lifting that chunk up and dropping it on the foundation.
