[QUOTE="Bigdawg90, post: 4238271, member: 49831"] [ATTACH type="full"]464614[/ATTACH] So I built this one for our property. We had a brush fire scare this past year: Trailer was difficult to find. I wanted a 3500 axle under an 8’ trailer. Cost me $1k on marketplace. I then picked up a 330 gal IBC tote, and the 79cc 1” harbor freight water pump. I put a valve on the output of the pump so I can have it running but not dumping. All in I was at $1300. Best part is it’s light enough to tow around with my tractor. The harbor freight pump can fill our pigs 55 gal drum in a little over a minute. I was able to burn a lot more this year and feel good about doing it. When I’m using it for fire suppression, I attached a 1” output hose and a fire nozzle. It’ll shoot about 50-100’. For everything else, I run a regular garden hose so that’s it semi rigid and easy to store [/QUOTE]
