Today I hooked up my Tree Spade and moved a large Fig
Note the hooks & handles I welded on years ago it is quite useful for not only trees and shrubs but also setting large rocks. The hooks and handles allow chains or nylon straps

I wonder if a scrap propane tank could be cut down to make one. Anybody ever done this?
