Got out with the HH PI today

[tb]

Found an assortment of stuff, some of it DEEP! I think it won't have any problems on small jewelry, one piece of small wire must have been 2 feet down.

heck, i forgot the most important question

how did your scoop work out...............u said 2ft .............that is a good sign it worked ok, but u can now get a grip on just how important a strong scoop will have to be

keep us posted, i might see u sat.................weather sounds very b l e a k as i know u already know

good luck

The scoop worked pretty good. I need to round out the blade some and put a bigger diameter handle on there 1" or 1 1/4". It bent ever so slightly above the support. I might make a smaller one in the weeks to come, this one is about 6" diameter by 11", and I can tell you I'm sore this morning from lifting that sucker out of those wetsand holes! I haven't weighed it , but I'm guessing between 8 and 10 lbs. I'm gonna definitely shoot for Sun. don't know about today,

alot of scoop makers slide a piece of wooden dowl down into the shaft (handle part) for support

if u noticed, on my monster scoop has 1" handle................i added red heater hose, really helped

the alum. one is 1-1/4"

i am heading down now..................hope the weather does not get me...........no rain yet
