Another home made scoop

[Flush Draw]

Everyone of us have a little talent. Heres my 1st scoop. Made from a 6" exhaust pipe, a little elbow work and waalaa. Now the tru test will be when we get in the water...




Never used one before itll be interesting.

How much would a Pipe like that cost. Looks Great!

Its 6" o.d., 16 gauge exhaust available at Napa. 12" piece would probably run about 3 or 4 bucks.

Nice job on it let us know how it works.

Not too shabby, you might want to weld some sort of foot rest on the back, like a nice wide pad for your foot so it won't want to twist when you press on it...other than that i'd say you're off to the races!

I have thought about the 'foot push' bar/pad and will probably end up doing that. I also thought I might have to put a gusset from the top of the scoop up the handle about 6". Its very sturdy the way it is and not very heavy. I think it will work well but time in the water will tell. Thanks all.

Looks like a quality piece of machinery! And, the price was right. I am sure it'll do you just fine. Might need a tweak or two, but I am sure the price still very right . Now test it out by beating it to death with quality finds!

I got nothin in it but time. Made my own u-bolts found the nuts, had the wood handle layin around and the pipe. Cheap as you can get. Thanks for the replies.
