Thanks to Jim O'Connor and several others, I have managed to build a weed sprayer outfit from our old garden sprayer outfit.
The tank and pump are from the garden sprayer. The frame was scratch built with steel side frames and underframe and a plywood floor secured to the steel frame. The tank is secured to the wood deck with some 5/16 bolts. The trucks are from Titan (Former Mountain Car Company) with steel wheels. The coupler is an old MCC coupler that had been broken and welded back together. Of course a new NAPA battery was needed. I have the hand wand connected through a TEE in the sprayer line to get weeds off the ROW, along the fence line for example and under the bridges.
