Marion 5561 Stripping Shovel

[modelman]

Wow steve-that would make a great model!! I have watched hours of spade videos and I think a model with the "knee action crowd" would work great regardless of the size. I believe it would be easier to operate with the crowd movement slower and smoother than a shovel like mine. Also it looks like the crowd keeps the bucket at a good angle into the face. I have considered building a small shovel with this type of crowd but I doubt it will happen.
