The term "leg" is what people I've talked to around elevators call those tall thin vertical "elevators" like the one that Walther's sells; so either term would be okay....Ed, thank you. That is the key to understand the system. I get totally confused looking for two different parts of the system, the elevator and the leg while those are two names for the same part
ps. It looks like legs are frequently used with older concrete silos too. I assume the old elevators needed to be expanded or to be replaced and it is more cost effective to install a state of the art standard leg outside the old structure.
