Default Handy Dandy Quick & Easy light duty forks






These work pretty neat for the lite little jobs.

I was hoping to be able to scoop some material up from the ground. I was tearing a barn down and wanted to guide these under the sheet material. Kind of worked, but the first set I made weren't straight and I ended up breaking one because it dug into the ground. They did work great for light work. Not sure what the breaking weight is though.
