Hi Guys! I am Looking For People To Help Me Figure Out Ideas And Ways On How To Make Some New Beach Rakes/Shovel/Scoops/Sifters.

Might I ADD This Is For BEACH SIFTING IN SOFT SAND... SO I DO NOT NEED IT TO BE SOMETHING FOR HARD SAND OK!

What I Have is some Heavy Duty Style Chicken Wire That I Had Found, And What I Did Was I Went To Went To Walmart and Bought a Net For Fishing, and Cut The Net off, and Then Attached The Wire To It.. So What I Was Wondering Is This....

Is There Anybody That Could Help Me Make Some Really Neat and Usable Beach Rakes?
I was Wondering if anyone Would Have Any Ideas on What I Could Do With The Materials I have Supplied in the Pictures
I Have The Chicken Style Wire, Not To Mention Plenty of Tools To Build Them, As Well As Maybe Some Items I could Use as Handles.

As You Could See I Have Already Made One... I Made A Nice Little small One That I am Looking To Try Out, But I Would Like Some Of Your Ideas!!

So Please, All input would Be Appreciated!! Please Let Me Know What You Guys Think! And What Ideas You Might Have!
Also I am Looking to make a Rake That would Act As A Shovel That I Could Dig Into the Soft Sand at the Beach To Use as A Sifter


Thanks So Much Guys For All The Help

In Texas, Academy Sporting Goods --
Go to BBQ Cookout and Turkey Fryer Section of Sporting Goods Store --- They make a Deep Fryer Scoop, chrome plated steel with 1/4 inch mesh. Two sizes, Small / Large, paid about $10 for small one. Works great in dry sand.


Now, get an grass edger and build a rotating 4 inch pvc plastic pipe section in front with loop bands screwed to it. Throws sand and everything else into trailing 1/4 inch mesh catch basket (or mesh In-Basket Paper Tray -- office supply section Walmart) and for extra credit, add a basket shaker arangement and self propulsion fat-boy tires.
