HELP WITH PLASTIC SAND SCOOP

[Peyton Manning]

Howdy kids
Just sold my house, after closing I?m heading to the beach for some digging
I have a very nice aluminum hand scoop , but last trip to gulf shores was a sign prohibiting metal.

Where can I get a solid plastic hand held scoop for sand?

Strange that they prohibit a metal scoop......never heard of such. I would have to wonder if the scoop police would be called on you....

Mine is a grain scoop, for filling the feedbags for horses, I suppose. Anyway, I reinforced the handle with wood and drilled some holes (smaller than a dime), and works quite well for dry sand, and not so gravelly stuff, too..!
GL+HH...!

Wow! That was a quick sale for you! Congratulations! I don?t know much about the sand detecting, but a quick search turned this up.

At our age leaning over or squatting to dig is going to get old real quick.

Good idea!
The other plastic scoop that I use in archaeology doesn't have holes, but is a flat-bottomed, and is solid and tough-handled....
So, you'll have to figure out what's available, and do it...!

How about a no-metal (floating) sand sifter,made from a 5 gal. bucket.

Or>>> The only metal in this is the fasteners and they can be Plastic/Nylon > https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/default.aspx?catid=667
And the screen is rust free Nylon of whatever mesh size you want.

Good, but I’m looking for one to dig with

Or if you tried one that wasn’t good, where did you get it? So I won’t
