Randy from Olympia has created a unique and premium product for Beediverse.
The new product is a handcrafted scoop with the handle crafted from native wood.
The wood stock is carefully dried until it stabilized without cracking. Then the handle is hand-crafted into a scoop handle. Wood type available is flowering plum, native hazel nut and cherry while quantities last.
The plum is dense and heavier then the hazel. The hazel is a lighter wood and tough. Cherry has a reddish brown color.Go to the link below and see our new product. This is a great product for the mason bee keeper who has everything!

For a bit of fun, Randy took a photo while he was grinding a scoop at the grinding wheel. What is interesting about all this is that hard metal creates lots of sparks, like in this photo, and softer metals create very few sparks. Great photo Randy!
