The beginning of the summer season for many inveterate summer residents is often accompanied by back pain. It is not surprising, because in order to plant seeds in open ground, you must constantly bend over.
In this review, the author shows how to make a simple device for planting seeds. The main part will be made of profile pipe. Also, segments of a round pipe will be required.
First of all, you need to cut a piece of profile with a length of about 1.2-1.3 meters (if necessary, can be longer). At the end of the profile, the author makes a markup and cuts out a piece of a triangular shape.
The edges of the workpiece will need to be processed with a drill or a regular file to remove burrs.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, two holes must be drilled in the cut blank. Two washers must be welded to a long piece of profile pipe. Using a bolt with a nut, we connect the workpieces together. Further, the author welds a piece of a round tube to the profile.
In a short blank ("beak"), you will need to drill another through hole, and then tie a flexible wire or cable.
The author welds a segment of a round pipe perpendicularly to the profile pipe, so that it is convenient to hold the device in his hands. The end of the wire must be tied to a nut or ring.
At the last stage, it remains to make a seed hopper. To do this, a cap is put on the end of the profile - the upper part of the plastic bottle is screwed into it.
