Peace river rat Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Some pics of my digging tool, it is galvanized steel that I welded. It took me the better part of a day to fabricate it. The 1/4 inch mesh is held on with copper wire ties. As you may be able to tell, it is somewhat heavy empty, much less full. I stack two yellow cat litter buckets in the river that forms a stable "table" I lay the long end flat on my table and paw thru it at my leisure. Alot easier than trying to manhandle it! The commercial ones I have seen are a joke! Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I ride my self made recumbent bicycle to the river, it is easier than carrying 2 objects. I had two yellow cat litter buckets to stack and make a "table" to hold it on so I don't hold all the weight. I stashed the buckets near the river and someone stole them! Cat litter buckets! Oh well, I found a rusty dog crate that works better. Link to post Share on other sites

Scylla Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Maybe they are not stealing your buckets, but just cleaning up litter Link to post Share on other sites
