Weed Wiper Hangs From Building Joists

Weed Wiper Hangs From Building Joists BUILDINGS Miscellaneous 24-4-34 Here are a few ideas I've spotted recently in my travels around the state of Illinois. With storage space at a premium on many farms, you might keep in mind that the space in the upper reaches of your machine sheds often goes unused. I was recently in the shed of Farley Cole, Girard, Ill., and noticed his weed wiper hanging from the joists. He just tied a couple ropes to it and hoisted it up. Of course, the idea only works on lighter equipment but Cole says it freed up a lot of floor space and was easy to do. Roger Rosentreter, Carlinville, Ill., put together a mobile fuel service unit. A large storage tank and an old service station gas pump mount on a pair of large steel skids. It can be used on the farm for normal refueling or taken to the field. (C.F. Marley, Nokomis, Ill.)
