Now thats cool. I'll be watching this one. Are you gonna make it where it can actually spray. It'd be cool to be able to spray your yard from a lawnchair. I can imagine the looks on the neighbors faces now. LOL

Wow! Extremely nice metal fabrication and machining skills. It's always neat to see a scratchbuilt piece of farm equipment.

Saw this operate at Indy and got to see the details underneath (diff & drive train) as well as the boom assembly. Very, very nice work!
