Compost & Grain Scoops Made By ME!

 I was reading the other day that YouTube is the second most used search engine. So I decided that as well as my usual videos looking at making things and doing stuff on the homestead, I should also have some videos showing my different ranges of products. 

My scoops are a product I'm really proud of. I love building something that I know will last. IT's also nice that I use dad's workshop as well as my own to make them, the joining of skill is really nice. 

I put a short video together (in my mum's very pretty garden shed) showing off the three main sizes I make, but I also have a large scoop (which is one I like but might be too big for many) and a dustpan available currently. 

Let me know what you think. What would you build out of folded metal and wood?

  1. Great use of traditional materials. Nice up to date feel in the design.

    1. Thanks! It just feels right in the hand as well. Some people find them a bit heavy, but then I think you can use the weight of it to go into the compost or grain more.

  2. A wonderful combination of old school quality and design with modern functionality.
    Well done!

  3. They would be great for cleaning out my rabbits cages and the hens nesting boxes.

    1. I keep thinking some scrapers would work well as another tool to sell.

  4. Perhaps a dust pan for inside the house to broom floor debris into.

  5. That was a great and very informative video, Kev. Honestly, I never thought of using a scoop for a compost pile, but it makes a great deal of sense.
