Isn’t this exactly why the BcUK forum is so brilliant!!!!
I’ve joined a couple of suggestions together and I’ve got myself a wonderful carrying tool in about four minutes.
I don’t know whether it will help you
@mrcharly but I’ll be using it.
I haven’t got a bungie octopus (or I can’t find it!) and I haven’t got a turfing iron so a heavy duty spade will have to do. I tried it with a walking pole but it’s too narrow and hurt my shoulder. If I use this in anger I’ll make a pad for the shovel. Its shouldn’t hurt your shoulder if you use your peat bank technique mrchary. I levered the load up and let it slide down to my back.
I’m sure tool and technique will evolve as I use it.
If I had an octopus I’d demo the collapsed sack truck as a carrier.
Thanks guys - this is seriously useful.
NB don’t grab your beard to the shovel as you lever the load onto your shoulder!
Components:
The tool: You won’t want the handle up.
Yes the wheels straddled my lumbar spine - well they didn’t but it wasn’t uncomfortable - not for a walk of 500M
The collapsed sack truck - no wheels sticking out..
It will work just as well as the woodland triangle frames.
There is only a 10k load in this example. I’ll try it again with a 25K Bag of compost when I get one.
I hope this could be useful for others; it certainly shall be for me.
Thanks guys.
