[AT] rain; now Grain Drill

[John Hall]

I've only been there once. I was building a sprayer. All I needed was a 
shopping list and a check and I was in business!!

Drill has been updated with new springs and a new hole drilled so we can 
increase the pressure. Very noticable difference. And most importantly we 
have had 3 showers of 1/2" each!!
