Review: Perfect for small refill projects. - Mud bug season!! ARGH!!! This time of year down south I am forever filling holes in the yard , cuz our fur babies can't stand hearing the crayfish under ground and not being able to see them! It's the only time of year they dig!! I bought this out of the frustration of needing to get the fill dirt compacted better then I could by just tamping it with my feet. The "by foot method" didn't get the dirt tamped enough to make it an effort for the goofball boys to dig it right back out. Most of the holes I fill are never more than six-seven inches deep, maybe half foot across but a couple of weeks ago my "boys" managed to dig out a hole that was a little over a foot deep and about two feet wide!! They got the idea to team work the same spot! Once I got the hole filled, I was glad to have this tamper ready to go. It did the job in half the time the "by foot method" would have taken and it got the dirt packed enough that the boys can't just flip it out of the area like it is cotton candy fluff. The tamper is heavy enough to do a solid job of getting the dirt packed, but not so heavy I can't manage it. I'm in my mid 50's about 5'3 so I needed something that wasn't going to weigh a ton and be hard to work with. Tween this tamper and training collars, I am hoping we can get thru the next mud bug season with the boys thinking it won't be so cool to dig to see what is under ground.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The item weighs 17 pounds, ships at 13 pounds.  Helium packing bubbles?**
A: I didn't notice the weight at shipping. That's strange! All I can say is that it does weigh 17 pounds. Maybe they wanted to see if anyone would notice. Lol

**Q: What's the diameter of the hole in which the handle goes into?**
A: It is about one inch in diameter. Any standard rake handle would fit. The metal tamper head has a hole 3/8 inch hole that you can insert a screw into if the head loosens. I used this for installing a base for a retaining wall. It worked great and is very sturdy.

**Q: Will this work on pavers? I have a few left and I need to compact the sand between the pavers down**
A: I have used this to tamp small pebbles in between paving blocks.  It works fairly well, as long as you keep it parallel to the blocks.  So, it should work on sand as well.

**Q: How long is the handle?**
A: 48 INCHES - JUST THE RIGHT SIZE
