powerrabbit Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 One that I have been playing about with today. Started out as one of those Tim Toys and is now an Allman sprayer, or it will be when finished. Got to tidy up the paintwork a tad and create a decal for it, it will then be ready for work spraying the spring barley. . Before and after pics.

powerrabbit Posted April 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 That looks really smart, looks spot on! Thanks for the positive comments. Was going to put some more pipes on but thought there was no need to go OTT. Two hoses coming from the front seemed enough as one represents the hose coming from the tank to the shut-off and the other going to the booms as the booms would have integral piping for the spray nozzles anyway.

Lexion580 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Would those booms fit onto the Britains Chafer sprayer? with a bit of doctoring to the drawbar, it would look close to the trailed allman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted April 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Would those booms fit onto the Britains Chafer sprayer? with a bit of doctoring to the drawbar, it would look close to the trailed allman I think that the booms may fit as they clip together in a very similar way. The slide mounting for up and down is practically the same as the Chafer sprayer so I reckon they would fit. You could use the boom and mounting on the Britain's Chafer as the tank is held to it with a small screw, would not need much adapting.

Lexion580 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 I've just been trying to find some pics online of the old trailed 12m version, it had manual booms just like the mounted version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted April 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Iv'e just had a good look at the Chafer sprayer and the rear Everard sprayer that was part of the MF 2680 set and the sprayer booms are the same on both so they would all be compatible but the frame on the one I converted to an Allman would be better to use as it is all metal and therefore a lot stronger and on this last one the booms are also exactly the same as the previous two.
