I made one out of a 55 gallon plastic barrel and a few scrap pieces of lumber, then bought a directional moultrie feeder. I think all told I paid $40.

This is it in the background:

If u want cheap get a 55gal and 3 4x4s make 3 legs. Then cut a hole in the bottom of the feeder about the size of a quarter. Put a chain through the hole the deer will nudge the chain and corn will come out.

Take some 4" PVC pipe say about 4-5' long and do a gravity feeder. Just take some air duct zip ties and attach it to a small diameter tree. Just make sure to cap the top end (make sure not to glue that cap on :D. ) The bottom end just make a 45 degree angle cut. Take a 5 gallon bucket lid and make a plate for the food to pile onto at the bottom of the pipe.

Like this.. :)

I put a plastic coffee can on the top of the pipe and then wrap the can in the bag the corn came in.
