Multi-headed nut wizard pickup tool - videos

The Multi-Headed Nut Wizard. Yes, that's exactly what it's called, and it looks awesome. 1:42 video:

Seems like some homemade tool builders went pro, which we always like to see. Of course there is an ammo pickup version. More interestingly, check out these variants:

The Sock Wizard, for easily donning/doffing socks without hurting your back; 27-second video:

The Trash Wizard; 12-second video:

Another strategy, this time for spent casings.

For ping-pong balls, which reasonably justify a different pickup strategy than tennis balls.

Like the Sock Wizard, but in the genre of As-Seen-On-TV.

This one stinks and does not work worth a flip.

Definitely wouldn't work at the range I go to and doubtfully pick up any pistol casings.

The Nut Wizard is pretty cool system for a HMT start. Looks like pecans and wish I had one back when I picked walnuts for 2 summers...never again. The sock ones are also cool and have a real need for some folks...I know my Mom could have used one!

And how much earlier did a hazelnut herder get them rounded up?

Those are the cleanest field filberts I've ever seen. Typical harvest involves windrowing then elevating the windrow into a cart. The lot is taken to the packer where the nuts are cleaned to look just like what this man is vacuuming.
