I was just about to mention that someone on this forum had made one of those!!
Yeah, the aeration method is not that difficult to do. Our fill water starts at about 300ppm TA. I built this screw-in jet to take it down:

I found a sprayer for $20 that screws into the return eye and has a whole fan it sprays. The few times I've needed to lower T/A it worked GREAT.

Carl - Can you share with us where you got the $20 piece?
I filled my 21' AG pool last summer from a 300' well. I bought Ben's kit and tested. My TA was over 600. I followed the aeration steps outlined here and got it down to the recommended level. I just turned my return eye up so it was pushing the surface causing bubbles. Make sure you have a good supply of muriatic acid.
I didn't think it was that bad of a procedure. It just takes awhile.
Remember: PATIENCE!!
I'm learning a lot of it right now clearing my water up.
