Popular Post other dog Posted September 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2013 I've got a few wild grapes growing around the edge of the yard and in the woods. Most of them are too high to reach-I don't have a forklift, like we used at the shop, or even a ladder for that matter.So I ordered this grape picker tool from ACME Products. Cost $499.18 and it included 5 sticks, 4 tie straps, a used miracle-gro bucket, and a strip of aluminum off an old storm door. Had to assemble it myself. Theoretically, if I duct tape the bucket to the stick, then put a bunch of grapes in the slot between the two top sicks and pull down,the grapes should fall into the bucket. Theoretically that is, haven actually tried it out yet. 6 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post thomastractorsvc Posted September 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2013 wow what a great tool, I think I am going to order one! Crap, I don't have any wild grapes! That's ok I think I will get one anyways, never know when a ACME grape picker thingy will come in handy.I am not sure though if it would be handier than my ACME gas hammer? 7 Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Green Dash Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 The real Other Dog looks genuinely concerned.Red seedless grapes are on sale for $2.49 lb this week at Giant Eagle. I'll go pick some there. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32883-grape-picker/#findComment-208033 Share on other sites More sharing options...
