    Hey I got one of them.. I do every week all year round as well as look after the gardens and lawns and make sure the sand pits are topped up..

    What kind of blower do you have Mat? I just got a 4 stroke honda hand held but thinking of getting a back pack one. Like you say when the sand is a bit wet its a hard to do..

    having had a Honda 4 stroke i would have to say anything else would be a good idea, they may start easily but i believe they are under powered
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Hmm. My little pope can move wet sand/dirt out of a roadside gutter. My echo blower you have to use the nozzle to scrape it loose.
