Aerator \"Spoons\"?
Hello all,
I am looking to build an aerator and have looked at all of them at the local home improvement stores and am not very impressed. I don't have a doubt in my mind that I could build one better, however I am concerned about building/purchasing the spoons . I want them to be hollow so that they can get plugs from the soil and am assuming tapered so that the plugs can be easily ejected. How can I bend them? What guage steel should it be? How can you make them tapered?
Or am I wasting my time and should I just buy them? If you suggest this route do you have any place in mind? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif and how much are they?
Thanks,
Chad
