This is my 30" King Kutter dirt scoop. I got tired of pulling on a rope...it never seemed to cooperate with me. Seems I could not pull hard enough unless conditions were just right. I rigged up a 2x4 with a couple of bungee cords to keep the tension just right when not dumping. Works like a charm. Just luck...cause I'm not that smart /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention. It may not be pretty, but it works./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif I wish I had thought of something like that when I had a similar scoop./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif Dam rope would never trip when I wanted it too.
