"Spray Tank" Seed Bins

"Spray Tank" Seed Bins SPRAYING Miscellaneous 26-1-6 Brian Haubrich, Glenbain, Sask., converted a pair of old metal spray tanks into seed holding bins which he uses to fill his grain drill. Each tank - one 300 gal. and the other 400 gal. - sits inside a four-legged metal stand at a 45 degree angle. The tanks have a fill opening on top - made from a short length of welded-on auger tubing - and an endgate at the bottom that's used to unload the seed into an auger hopper. "I use them mainly to store small amounts of flax seed. One tank holds 40 bu. and the other 50 bu. Flax seed is very small so a small amount goes a long way for planting," says Haubrich. "The tanks keep mice out and are easy to use. I use an auger to fill the tanks and also to unload them. I had been hauling the tanks on a spray wagon and using the same stand to support them."
