Bucket-Mounted "Squeegee" Moves Water Out Of Poultry Houses
We're contract turkey growers and we came up with this bucket-mounted "squeegee" to make moving water out of poultry houses easier after we've washed them down with a pressure washer.
  It consists of a 6-ft. length of 1/4 by 1 1/2-in. angle iron with 1 1/2-in. flat iron bolted to it. A 4-in. wide piece of 1/2-in. thick rubber fits between the angle iron and flat iron to serve as the squeegee. It has two 6 in. wings at a 40 degree angle on each end to keep water from backwashing behind the device. The squeegee clamps to the cutting edge of the bucket on our skid steer.
  If there's interest, we'll make the squeegees for $100 plus S&H. (Waylan Burkholder, Burkholder Engines, 3320 Ottobine Road, Dayton, Va. 22821; ph 540 879-9591)
