Default Re: A more better digging bar - much more

Thanks guys! If you make your own make sure to place the foot bar far enough from the blade, but not too far, to dig deep enough, but not too deep. And you need to weld the gribbit bar at 45 deg for support.

My pic shows the blade tip with rust. When I need to dig I have an 8" Delta grinding wheel to resharpen. You got to go sharp John. Mentioned Delta cause it never broke down in 30 years.

Jon - Go to Harbor Freight and get a rubber wheel chock! Real cheap - lasts a long time!

Chas - no batteries either - just Miller Lite to run the digger.
