[Dmd3058]

im headed down the beach very soon with 4 others for a vacation and we plan on doing some metal detecting but couldnt see spending $20.00 each on some scoop that could get at tractor supply for $3.29 and drill some holes in...... this is what i came up with

Cool!
Show a pic (or two) while you're holding it.
Looks like it might be better than store bought.
What type of scoop is...was it exactly?
I think I'd put a Binford logo on it

its a 3quart feed scoop from tractor supply company.. i will try to get some pics while using it but no promises

I like what I see...but I also would like some pics of the handle on the scoop and of you holding it. I don't have a tractor supply nearby but pass 'em on the highway when traveling. The price is certainly right. Did it come with the 'diamond grid' or did you mark it off as a pattern for drilling.. Good job!
