well thanks for all the suggestions so far, if they are put together from the bottom up, then we may have a problem taking it apart from the top down, i will have to look into that, as for moving it whole, well its too long to fit on any of our trailers, and the idea is to shorten it up anyhow, since we dont need a 10 ton grain bin, just about a 3 or 4 ton bin so when it is reaseembeled we are gona leave out a few of the rings. where its sitting it basicly has to come apart where it is, i just hope that it will come apart from the top down, i never realized they were assembled by raising the roof and adding to the bottom. this one was assembled laying horizontal they said, and then the raised it up to verticle with a come-along, but as i said before there is too much stuff around it now to be able to take it back down that way. thanks for all the suggestions, you mentioned a few things i had no idea about, around here grain bins are few and far between so i have never actualy seen one assembled or dissasembled. we are also trying to do this realy cheaply too, he only paid 200 bucks for the bin so we dont wanna spend too much to move it, whereas our labor is basicly free to us since both of us are just hobby farmers
