Tasked with digging the garden one day, I felt that forks and spades are both archaic and labour intensive, which lead to a sore back and boredom.

While doodling on the back of a cigarette packet, I remembered Archimedes law of levers. This in turn took my idea to a local blacksmith to fabricate my idea into a physical product. I then took my newly made prototype back to the plot of land that challenged me. With the new digging gadget attached to my fork, I found it to be a breeze, a ground breaking tool—literally. After attending many manufacturing trade shows, I met my current manufacturer in Farnborough. From there we took my prototype, which was a heavy, cumbersome and expensive hand made tool into a mass produced, laser cut, slim, lightweight and super strong digger.
