I recently put this cart together to hold all of my stuff when traveling far out into a field, so I wouldn't have to come back to my car every time I needed a different tool for the job.
It is aptly named, the Treasure Cart.
Setup for right-handed swingers, you tow this puppy behind you with your left hand as you sweep. It weighs way too much to hold it dead in your hand, but because it has the wheels and is fairly balanced it glides along and doesn't even feel as heavy as if you were carrying a shovel in your hand.
Seen in the photo left to right: Deep woods OFF, cloth to put dirt on, throw all of your clad in the velcro pouch, mister bottle for your face or to rinse off a coin (you can unscrew the mister part to get more pressure), in the bucket is a probe, plastic shovel, digging tool, short shovel, and a portable seat/storage unit. I would usually carry a towel around the lower handle for wiping off my sweaty face (with mister feels great - keeps you going).
Here we see: Zytel probe, lock back knife, car key holder, some pens, package of 10 AA's, extra battery pack (charged!), oh yeah and there is a piece of tape on the bucket... just in case you need it. Also if you notice the bucket is sitting on it's own lid loosely, to give it more of a base and to keep it from falling through the triangular formation of rods. This lets you break down the cart easily enough if necessary to get it in your car. I just toss it in the back seat.
Here we see what's in the seat/storage: Headlight, Finds box with cotton, earbuds, ibuprofen, and a bag full of stuff that you can scan to figure out "what does that sound like again?".
The seat gets you pretty low to the ground but I'm not sure just how practical it is to sit on and dig. Maybe if the ground was really wet or muddy. I didn't really like kneepads.
You can also kneel on this pad... this works pretty good actually for those deep holes, and also for wet or muddy ground.
Put ALL of the trash in here... there's plenty of space! I was also storing some drinks and snacks in there, but it's recommended to put the drinks and snacks in a plastic bag so they don't get all dirty. Keeping the drinks out of direct sun will help keep them cool too.
Yep, I just got that shovel... as a temporary replacement for the Lesche Groundshark that I'm getting. I can already feel this shovel wants to just snap in half.
Well that's about it. Let me know if you want one and I'll tell you where I got all of the stuff.
