Easy Solid 2Piece Shovel

[workworkwork 19]

For any of you wanting to make a decent 2 piece easily, i got a 20quid spear and jackson roundmouth. Cut where the shaft and head are welded together then get a cat2 lower link arm pin. The pin end will slide into the handle and make a solid fit that just needs a weld then weld the nut to the end of the shovel head. Works a treat! Farmer boys will know what i mean by a link arm pin

How well would this joint work if you had a graft head that you could either screw in the handle or a bar, would the bar work with it?

Ive done one with a 6ft graft before if thats what you mean? Works well and fits in the quad box

[ratkilla 35]

Yeah that's what I meant about putting a 5ft or 6ft bar with that fitting if it could take the abuse

[workworkwork 19]

Theyll take the weight of any tractor implement!

[ratkilla 35]

That's true! Just need someone who can run a solid bead with the welder.

Any pic of the graft you did? I'm after one for the quad

No i havent but i made one out of a 6ft digging bar so you had a 6ft graft or bar. Or a 3ft bar when broke down. Made another out of a 6ft fencing graft that was a handy tool. If you know a welder they cost little to make and can be made in no time. The shovel took me no more than 10minutes to make
