Had this trenching shovel from Lowes hangin around doing nothing so I modded it a bit to suit my currently perceived needs. Tacked a piece of angle a lil offset across the top for a better foot hold, shortened it a good bit and topped it off with a D handle. Don't need teeth on it for roots. I use a set of old hand pruners for those.
Not too heavy and works for me. d:^)

I use this Sun Joe digger that I got from Silversmith45 in the 2018 gift exchange here. 
It works great and is perfect for the soil up here.
Originally it had a wooden handle, but last week I decided to paint the handle orange so it is easier to find in long grass and when it gets muddy. After a few coats of paint, I put 3 layers of clear coat on it to keep it strong & looking nice.

Lots of great pics! I love my Lesche Shovel... very light, although a bit rusty.

So glad when I got my 31 inch Sampson Lesche shovel, makes digging so very much easier ! (also has a serrated edge on one side)
I use a canvas work apron that has pockets for nails, ect. as a safety cover for the shovel so it doesn't cut anything when carrying it in the car and storing it at home.
