Filling Sand Bags

The Old Ruminator

Well-known member
We use sand bags a lot now for hauling out spoil in a tub or hidden packing in retaining walls. The difficult bit is in filling them. I made this from bits at home. Mrs OR has not noticed yet that the food waste bin is missing.

I do the thinking the others do the working but my clarity of thought and original conceptions save them a lot of effort. Proof of concept tomorrow and I dont want a traffic cone.
 
From my planning and concept book. The pipe, pole traverse , ladders and platform all my design. The hard part is to get it done as cheaply as possible. The bag filler was all from stuff already to hand.
