Dirt Packer Made from Random Crap
We have a mountain of crusher fines left over from the flagstone work around the tub. Wendy has been creating new paths, but we really needed a way to pack the dirt. I checked with friends and went to the hardware store, but I was not able to find a off-the-shelf tamper. This led to the creation of the random ass object in my hands. Black pipe + found metal plate and a few minutes of welding = tamper.

Same thing here with the big steel bars that are kind of sharp at one end for digging post holes and such. I couldn't justify spending $40 on a hunk of steel when I could buy a piece of rod for a lot cheaper and grind the end down myself. A little bit of spray on truck bed liner and you would never know it was home made. It works nice for busting up ice in the driveway too, and for ice fishing.
