Default New Beach Scoop!!

Well folks a couple of weeks ago Sandskimmer posted a beach scoop for sale. We talked back and forth a bit, and I ended up buying it. I had to go out of town to a school for work this week. I got home and my new scoop was waiting for me!!


I want to tell all of you how good JT (Sandskimmer) did me. He sandblasted the scoop and painted it before sending it to me!! It looks brand new!!

Thanks again JT! Now I am ready to hit the beach this summer, Beale.

Congrats on the new scoop. For some reason I don't think sandskimmer needed to go through all that trouble cause . Ya gotta break in in all over again now. Good luck with all the future finds that new scoop will find for ya.
