Working With Wood
This was the first time I've ever attempted cutting
something round on my tablesaw and it didn't go like I wanted. However,
the round handle didn't move because I had a clamp on it, but the cut
itself was not the best.

I had to turn the handle over to do the other side which
is when things went downhill. I used a handsaw to help straighten out
some of the slot area. On the plus side, this is purely cosmetic and
won't hurt the functionality of the scoop.

Here is the 10-32 hardware I'll be using. I found these acorn nuts down
at the bottom of the drawer which I didn't even know that I had but
should work great for this project.

It's Finished
As you can see, I painted it with gloss red and black paint.
|
|
 |
Nice and shinny but I don't know how long it will look this nice.
|
|
 |
The rounded ends work great.
|
|
 |
I added some para-cord to the end so I can hang it up with.
|
|
 |
Nice and glossy.

This poop scoop works just as I thought and works equally well the on
grass, the sand and in the pea-gravel. This was a fun project that
didn't take long and I should get many years of use out of it.
