hand tamper... one of a landscapers best but most hated tools... one heck of a work out and essential to a good interlock job, if only I had my own quick cut saw.
Must have forearms like popeye with a twenty lb all steel tamper!!! but your right gotta do it or it's all loosy goosy and walks like junk. Mech posted somewhere he used a pair of large two handed pruners/lopers to cut wire harnesses(brilliant BTY) just had to find an old pair because I wasn't using my fiskars.
