 Topic: Foamer
Posted: 22 Jan 2011 at 6:49pm |
Does anyone have a homemade foam marker that works, I am in need of plans or pictures of one. I have limited vision and need help to keep me from retracking over where I've been.
Thanks in advance.

Talk to the John Deere guys. John Deere invented the foamer so they could see where they had plowed!

I'll try to get this picture to post. I built my own marker and love it on my 42ft booms. It is very simple, but the parts are what costs you. I have a square 15 gallon tank with one 1/4" outlet on bottom. That goes to the inlet side of 12v sprayer pump (mine is 3.8gpm but could be less), come out of the pump and go into the side of the infuser, the 12v air comp. line goes to the bottom of the infuser. Mounted on top of infuser is a 1" 12v selonoid valve, then I use 3/4" clear pvc hose to end of booms with store-bought collectors. I'll try to get pics of the unit and more details on the infuser. Hope this helps.

How much did it cost you to make that rig? I gave $200 for my sprayer and it is mint, but it would be hard for me to pay more than that to add foamers to it. Harder for the wife yet....

most of the parts I had laying arround, but you can buy a marker cheaper than you can build one. Agri-supply has one for about $450.00 only 6.5gl tank but works well. I have one on my no-till drill.

I gave 65.00 for a sprayer at a sale with a fomer on it. Took the fomer off and took the rest to the fence row. MACK
