the first scruffy took on spinners and the lifter held up fine but the front edge of the scoop got bent up, the old versions is my avatar

the scoop was just 5mm mild steel, the new 1 is thinner but it has a structure underneath which should make it more ridged and hopefully more prone to getting a gash rather than bet as i can then just weld it up

main suggestion don't use door hinge tried it and it bent, in the end i got some steel tube that was 8mm bore and made my own hinge which held up well
