Not sure about home-made sprayers. Kinda a pig in a poke....depending who built it. Myself....I would have a problem with a towed sprayer like that as my land is too rough.....and I like a sprayer that mounts on the rack of my 4-wheeler.
Lots of guys buy the FIMCO ATV sprayers (12 Volt Pump) and those can have a boom and a hose / gun. I doubt if a new one would cost $100 more. That's the direction I'd take.
Also, have heard some good reports on some sprayers by Northern Tool.

I was looking for a with a gas pump so that I can get enough height/pressure for my apple trees. I'll at least check this one out and feel out the guy and why he built it/is selling.
20-30 footers.

I have a couple of different sprayer - here's the one I bought this year to use for apples trees (I added a deep cell marine battery): http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_405991_405991

Heres your sprayer deal:http://brainerd.craigslist.org/grd/5214372580.html
Well, I ended up getting the gas one. Against the advice of the board (you guys) I decided that after seeing my neighbor's work for the last 25 years (well I've only seen it for the last 10ish), that it was a good deal. Hypro pump, 5.5hp briggs and stratton. Great nozzles and he included an extra 8 foot boom. 25 gallon tank.
The thing that convinced me was the A. the price was right (he's going to mail me some other nozzles that are usually $5 a piece) and more importantly B. My neighbor has almost the exact setup, so I have someone nearby that I can ask if something isn't working. I've still got a lot to learn :)
