I got a taper mouth builders shovel from the car boot 50p. Then with an agle grinder ,made a round mouth.Then go a mate who is a welder to weld a steel tube handle,a sort of T shape handle.Its quite heavy which has its pros and cons but it can take all the stick you can give it.I also have a bulldog round mouth , they are great shovels , but very large,and too big for tight spaces.Also i get little plates welded on my shovels to save my boots.A T B

. The shovel closest to the camera is K.O.S. J-450 hybrid. The one behind it is a standard K.O.S. . The hybrid is hiding , but the spade is a K.O.S. rubber d handle, and I carry the both of them when I go digging. . A close iPod the top of the rubber handle on the spade. Saves shoulders and elbows loads and loads of unnecessary aches and pains.

Dug up a couple other pics, some of these are prototypes I was asked to evaluate. . . I've narrowed it all down to the far left and the middle right. The K.O.S J 450 hybrid is the far left , I love the steep angle, steeper the angle means deeper holes with less circumference which means less digging which means faster intervention and that to me is a good thing.
