I suspect diggers think they are a good idea, bring them along on jobs and then discover they don't work on our fun local subsoils and abandon them. To be fair they do actually work on nice light sandy stuff with not too many rocks, but there's definitely a knack (I've had a go but not had the urge to acquire one, just feel one should learn to properly use any digging tool going), and lets face it a lot of diggers can't even produce a flat surface using a trowel :face-crying:
