Nifty Marker Paints Lines Fast

Nifty Marker Paints Lines Fast PICKUPS Accessories It may not be precise enough to make the final lines on highways but Phillip Ackley’s patent pending line painter has plenty of useful applications     The road construction worker always felt unsafe painting lines by hand and came up with the idea to use a vehicle     “Anything that has a 12-volt battery can run this ” Ackley says     Made of metal tubing the marker slips into a 2-in receiver and is powered by a trailer plug-in The marker uses spray paint cans with marking paint that dries in about 30 seconds It sprays solid lines or skip lines using a delayed wiper switch     “One can of paint will mark 7 000 ft ” Ackley says “I call it the ‘Phlip’ painter because it can paint on either side ”     By sighting down a spot on his truck’s front fender he can mark a straight and accurate enough line to mark roads during construction But the marker will also work on a 4-wheeler or tractor to mark baseball fields parking spaces or other lines needed for events It can also be used for marking pipelines or fence lines Ackley adds     Ackley would like to hear from manufacturers interested in buying rights to build and sell the marker He may also make them himself after he retires in 2019 Contact him for more information     Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Phillip Ackley 120 Azelta Rd Westfield Penn 16950 ph 814 628-2643; ackleyphillip@yahoo com
