My sister lives in Florida and wanted one of my metal detectors for the beach. So now I am in the process of building her a sand scoop. Weather kind of lousy today so I decided to work on it some. Went on the Internet and got some ideas as I have never seen one in person. They had some that were 11 inches long 8 inches wide and 4 inches deep some were smaller. I made this one actually 12 inches long 7 inches wide 4 inches deep might shorten it up some though. I have to brace the handle yet and going to weld a handhold straight out from where the handle goes be like a scoop.I guessed at the angle of the handle couldn't find anything about what degree it would set on. May have to build one smaller like maybe 5 inches wide 10 inches long depends on what works well for her. These things are quite time-consuming to build specially when I could not get the Tig Rigg working like I wanted but it's been five years since I have used one
