Thanks for the reply's. Forgot to mention that the pressure was great enough that the chain that came loose pulled the roof panel seam it was bolted to down about 6 inches before the chain let loose. Figured I'd have to go back with 2 chains spread out farther to replace the one that came loose. Know all about grain bin deaths, Old guy I worked for when I was a kid was killed a few years ago, 82, corn quit running out of the center dump and he went in to scoop down enough to put sweep in and had a heart spell and corn buried him. About 10 years ago, 3 brothers were big farmers, high school age son came home from school, went past the bins where they unloaded grain carts, crawled into the wagon over the pit to clean put wet corn from corners, and uncle came in with grain cart full and emptied it onto nephew, didn't know he was in there. 3 or 4 more bins within 20 mile radius with patches on side where they cut a hole to get victim out. You can't be too careful. Chris
