I couldn't bring myself to pay the extravagant amounts asked for Scoops
from overseas,so I decided to attempt my own :)
Scoop measures 6inches(w) and about 4-5inches(h) and 8-9inches(d)
I searched and found some stainless sheet with holes in already
Cut the templates myself at home and took it down to a local factory who did the welding
professionally for next to nothing
I am quite pleased with the result :)
Looks a good one TS.
ReplyDeleteYou beat me to it.
When is the test flight?
Will give it a workout over the weekend and see how well/not it works..HH:-)
ReplyDeleteI use the Monster scoop from reilly's and it's a brute at 7 pounds but it's a great scoop. I use the lighter aluminum one for the dry sand. Got one of the new one's coming. Think it weighs 9 pounds and the basket is 10X7. Guess my arm is going to get a little bit bigger.
