Making a Satellite dish bucket mount is very often the only option for some people. Usually used in Apartment, Cabins, Camping , Balconies and where satellite dish are just not permitted. All you need is a deep bucket, some Galvanized steel of the correct diameter of the dish you are using (I use 1.5″ here this works for Free to Air – DirecTV, Dish Network, Bell standard dish) and a drill to put a stud through the bottom of the pole to stop the pole turning. I also flatten the pole at the bottom for the same reason. I always fill the pole right to the top leaving just enough space to get my pole level in. Another trick is to put a small bit of wood under the bucket to support the base or it will bulge with the weight, this ensures a flat bottomed bucket with no movement at all. keeping the pole short is a good idea, the higher the more prone to wind load. Also remember off-set satellite dish collect signal from 22 deg. higher in the sky than where they “seem” to be pointing. As long as you have a clear line of sight to the satellite a pole mount works perfectly and makes a lot of sense. if you are moving you simply roll it onto the truck and away you go! I use a full bag of cement for each bucket, with a house brick inside the bucket for the pole to added support.
The Dingo Broom is a labour saving device that can be used in a variety of environments including car parks, cattle sales yards, shopping malls, mine workshops, parks and gardens. Dingo’s unique 2 circuit hydraulic system allows the broom speed and ground speed to be varied independently, to suit the debris being swept. This speed variation means that the Dingo Broom is suited to sweeping debris ranging from dust to blue metal. The polypropylene bristles are made from 100% Australian materials to Dingo’s exact specifications and quality. Broom Bucket Combo – The Dingo Broom Bucket sweeps 1.2 metres wide and can collect 50 litres of rubbish, more if consistency allows. It can then carry the rubbish to a standard industrial bin and tip it in. The Bucket is made from galvanized sheeting to cater for caustic substances and to reduce the risk of rusting.
