Bulk Bean Bag Handler PLANTING EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 26-4-7 John Imhoft wanted to use his forklift to lift big bags of beans high enough to clear the wagon he uses to fill his planter. He also wanted a scaffold that he could use to do work around his farm. He solved both problems by building a bean bag handler.
"It's a multiple purpose unit that comes in handy for various jobs," says Imhoft.
The 10-ft. long, 4-ft. wide handler has four hooks welded onto the bottom side of it that lift bags into wagons.
"I used 1-in sq. tubing to make the frame and plywood to make the scaffold floor. A guard rail around the top is made from pipe," says Imhoft.
