both these fit in ruck sacks,if you cant get one done,just get a good graft and drill the pin out then just comes apart then nut and bolt together if needed

Funny this topic was brought up as I was just talking the other day about the same thing. I only ever seen 1 fella with one [bANNED TEXT] though I'd say they be a handy bit of kit. Just one thing, would you have to mess about with the screw to get the handle at least nearly straight ?? Or can you adjust the bolt up to it in such a way that everytime you screw it on the handles straight, if you get me...

hi mudd ones welded from a nut like a railway bolt and nut which just screws together,over the years its seemed to go out of line had to had a washer to line it up again,the other one the graft its had the threads put on the handle itself then threads to main part no weld on that one,if you do it with normal wood or plastic handled ones i drilled the pin out so they came apart to fit in bag then you have to line it back up to put nut & bolt in dont use them to big comes keen when you catch the threads when digging

Thanks for the reply mate. Yes I get the just of it now. I could get one of them made very easily, I was just wondering about the handle placement as if it was a b stard to get correct it would do my head in lol. But as you say a washer or just a few handy adjustments would sort that out. Think I'll get one made when I get the chance. Thanks for your help..still some decent people about. Lol...atb......MUDD
