[QUOTE="tickweed, post: 5823240, member: 7928"] We use freezer panels. A square piece about 3 ft . In diameter. Make a couple hangers, mount to the sides of the ice eater, on the discharge end. Sit eater on floor, discharge pointed straight up. Take panel, sit it down on top center of eater. Picture it looking like a tabletop. Now, you want to mount eater to panel in this position with hangers. When mounting , you will want a gap of two , maybe 3 inchs from discharge end of eater between eater and panel. So now eater is mounted under panel. Center of panel, discharge is pointed upward toward panel. When you place in water, eater is hanging just beneath panel, the panel floats. Supporting eater underneath. When runnig. The flow is going straight up hitting bottom of panel, water goes out every direction. So from top side, you see a piece of panel. We paint top of panel mud colored, lay grass, corn stalks on it . Put full bodies on it. Stake oanel out with rope on two sides. Deadly, natural flow for feeding duks. Forgive my pic. But you get the idea. With these floating, they never need adjustin. Never make a sound. One T post each side with rope, they float up ,down, with water level. If shallow field, just dig hole for eater to sit down in [/QUOTE]
