dicke tool company downers grove IL (630)969-0050
1" solid fiberglass rod fits perfect inside they're fiberglass handle sections, I had enough to make 4 plugs, not sure where to get more though. 1" wood dowel would work just the same, as long as the water exposed side was all epoxied.
The dicke pruner poles route might be non practical due to price.
Home depot had some husky-brand red-handled rakes that had wall thickness a little more than standard fiberglass rakes, outside dia was like 31.5mm, should work just fine. Rakes were the only option for making a 48 or 50" handle.
I have a few extras, varying lengths, I'll post for sale in the ad section later....

yesterday i dug lots of targets
with the staver and a green fiberglass hoe handle from home depot. after 4 hrs my hand was green.
fiberglass seems to be the real deal......strong and nice and i like the smaller dia., BUT - - either today or fri......i am going back to A S H WOOD HANDLE.
Just my opinion

Max.
if on the hunt today, I had fiberglass handle for stavrscop-I would have blisters on the whole palm ....
, It does not hold wax!
you know what I mean
in water is not convenient to work fiberglass, it has a strong positive buoyancy and it has to be making an effort to drown.
fiberglass easy to surf line and dry sand (imho)

Evro 2.22 is a heck of a scoop, i'm very happy with mine.
i'm curious to put a fiberglass handle in mine too, waiting for the longer term report from Max to see how it holds up.... My wood handle is working great, but something stronger and lighter might be a nice mod...

Maybe try some spray foam in the handle Max.
Also instead of the grocery store,just go online to western union.I believe it only cost an extra $10.00 . BTW best scoop I've used so far.

I went yesterday and bought a long handled fiberglass hoe to use the handle. When I got home I cut off the rivets knocked the rivets out. Then went oand picked up a dowel rod and some epoxy. I cut the rod 18 inches put some epoxy in the handle placed the rod in then epoxied the end and rivet hole up. Now when I get back from my trip up north all I have to do is stick it in the scoop.
Ohh here is the floating sifter I made before I put the floats on it. I fallowed ChicagoRon's video on it.

Info for some. I weighed my fiberglass handle with the dowel rod installed with epoxy and it is 2lbs. That plus the 2.8 for the M10. Nice light and strong. Well the scoop will be home when I get back. Lol.

I am in no hurry as i probably wont get to the beach again until next year
I will hunt the lakes all year long. I am trying out some chest waders so I will see how I like them.

Well my M10 made it to my house today and I am in OHIO but my wife made a short video of her opening it. She said hand scoop but meant sand scoop.

Something tells me Ruslan is about to get very busy.
Ruslan has been real busy lately. He made scoops to orders and ran out of metal. Someone got my scoop. 
Now mine is on the way. Look forward to something bigger than my 6" RTG that works!
