We built a Boom Sprayer for $250

Brilliant, thanks for sharing!

[@ricardogrr95]

I’ve been looking for a video like this well over a year. I knew I was overthinking it. Thank you.

[@rwjedi]

OK there's something seriously wrong with me, I had your video or a star wars video to watch, and I picked yours too watch first lol

[@tickcreekranch]

I think that’s a compliment. Lol

[@groundspeed3954]

Nice. I like the KISS approach! If the spirit moves, you could add a pressure regulator to tweek pressures and nozzle sizes . . . but your design works great for your application.

[@brycehess6708]

Love it 👏...gonna make a smaller one for my ranger now 🔥

[@tickcreekranch]

Awesome! Hope it serves you well👍

[@F12Mahon]

Trucks make great work surfaces!

[@freestatehomestead]

I do love an IBC tote so versatile

[@tickcreekranch]

They are, almost limitless possibilities. Every homestead, farm or ranch should have at least a half dozen or so laying around. Lol

[@hunterpickard1297]

I made one for my food plots that has 4 sprinkler head nozzles on it. The pipe is only 7 ft wide and sprays about 15ft wide. If you were trying to apply more evenly that's a good way to do it.

Menards in Poplar Bluff is great!

[@denisewilson8367]

This can be used for so mant different things. Simple items, easy to get, and not expensive. Can't ask for anything better.

Thanks Denise

"Enginuity" at its best. I used to install fence in high water tables. I use 12v marine bilge pumps for draining water. We were setting 6x6's with 6" og standing water. Ran a 3500gph ($50 on Amazon returns) off a car battery for 2 days from a 4 ft sump,dug with a post hole digger. Hole needed mud to be cleaned out every 3 hrs or so. Ran it 2 days and drained an entire lot. On an 9ahr 18v battery (yes it supposed to be 12volt😅),a 3500gph with 2" will fill an IBC tote in about 7 minutes.

Sweet rig, great ideas!!!You said poplar bluff….is that MO? If so you’re close to me! Kool and thx!!

[@tickcreekranch]

Yes! We live just outside of Alton

[@outdoorzone]

I live in west ky

[@Dave-fo1cb]

Great idea. built one similar. A little smaller. I used a 12v battery operated pump from an old spot sprayer and strung together cheap spray booms with nozzles from amazon. I also was thinking with a big tank would it just gravity feed at 20 psi? That would be the simplest.

[@tickcreekranch]

@@Dave-fo1cb if it were only gravity feed it would be really low in pressure. Fresh water gradient is .433 psi per foot of head . A 275 gallon icb tote would have less than 2 psi at the nozzles. Might work with large orifices but won’t “mist”. Would work well for adding soil amendments though👍

[@tanyamcdowell4595]

Have you posted a materials list at all? Id be keen to give this a go to spray weeds

[@tickcreekranch]

Sorry no I don’t have a material list. I hate to say it because it ruffles feathers but don’t forget “weeds” are a symptom. If you kill the plants that are correcting your soil you’ll go backwards. I will sometimes clip the tops before seed production, but ultimately if you correct your soil, you won’t have weeds. You might notice a pattern, fields that get sprayed for weeds are the fields that always have weeds. I don’t know your goals or the crop that you’re trying to grow. I just know from experience and observation that the aforementioned is the truth. 😁

[@amandar7719]

Way over my head but it’s obvious you know what you’re doing. 🥴 Congratulations btw on reaching over 75k followers. You were just beginning when I first clicked to subscribe. Hope the family is well. What’s the goal for the new house this year? Oh. And how’s the garden doing re stocking up the root cellar? Hope I’m not asking too many questions. 🫣 Best wishes 🇬🇧

[@tickcreekranch]

Sorry I missed you post 8 months ago🥴 right now we’re flying by the seat of our pants trying to make this social media thing work. It’s hard to get anything done trying to make content that doesn’t suck lol. We have a lot of vids coming out soon👍 Once again, sorry😁

[@Jwagnon89]

Very nice! Thanks for the video! I will be making something just like this for myself this weekend! Just need to locate a tank. Whats the big wooden thing behind you?

[@tickcreekranch]

The rough framing of our house 😁

[@donlucas1631]

What size pump are you using? I am running a 2.1 hon and it’s not enough for 4 heads 20” apart

[@tickcreekranch]

I believe it’s a 1/3 hp

[@DavidSmith-fr1uz]

The spray pattern look like a stream to me and not a spray.
