[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 322683, member: 9840"] Hi everyone, I plan to build a small crevicing pick from an old plough disc (when I get one) It will need to be small enough for a back pack. I will turn a handle from spotted gum (back sawn spotted gum was traditionally used for handles due to its strength) If anyone has a pick that works well in the field, I would love to see a photo. I realise that there are a range of good ones that you can buy, but for me, it's the enjoyment of custom making your own. Its almost as much fun as seeing the yella stuff. I look forward to reading your comments and ideas. Cheers Les [/QUOTE]
