    My last sheet metal project.

    I saw these in the store for 35 bucks and almost bought one until I remember I have all the tools to make one lol. So by knocking off work an hour early and spending 45 min on it I prolly have 50 bucks into it lol. Oh well.Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1356016306.170066.jpg

    A scoop is made to carry snow not push it

    Nice, it doesn't matter how much you spent on it. The fact that you have a skill to use to make something from nothing is awesome.

    Sorry, don't take it as offensive. LOL
    I just never seen one before, and frankly don't know why anybody would want a snow scoop?
    I am from NJ where we get a fair bit of snow too, and have never seen one or needed one either.

    Lol they are big business here. When the snow on your roof is 24" deep they work good to move lots of snow at once. Maybe the confusion is this one is child size an adult would use a large one lol.

    The lip on the front will hold the snow back, the angle on the handle is to steep, should have trimmed the top front so it won't catch the snow....

    Just kidding looks great!
