Hay Steamer - homemade or posh ??

[Libbylou]

Does anyone have a home made one or a posh one ??

Depending on what my hay is like when its delivered I have thought about making a home made one.

Oh can get a wheelie bin then get a steamer from happy horse and if needed a thermomter from an instramental person he knows. He is then going to drill a hole in the wheelie bin to attach the hose into, then from the inside a metal tube with lots of holes drilled in, it will then curve when it reaches the middle of the bin and go up towards the top of the bin - to go into the middle of a net.

I was thinking about a trip plug like you would put into a socket when using a strimmer, and I think that the HH steamer has a timer

Any thoughts or how would you change it ??

Pour boiling water in the bottom of a bin, put hay in, put a lid on, walk away and come back 10mins later :giggle:

I made mine using a wheelie bin and a wallpaper steamer from B&Q. The steamer has an automatic cutoff for safety & the hay smells lovely.
