Crevice Pump

[Daniel]

So when it comes to innovation i'm about as good as panadol with a migraine (i give it a shot but it never works).

Pretty much what i'm after is an hand pump to suck dirt out of small crevices. Maybe something i can attach the the end of the yabbie pump i have or maybe something i can make myself.

Pretty much looking for a nozzle the size of as round as say a golf ball maybe a bit smaller. So i can get to places the yabbie pump is to big for.

I'm sure many others have something for this.

Any ideas/suggestion/products that will do the job will be awesome!

Cheers Lads and Lasses.

Hi Daniel.
Welcome to PA.
Here a a couple of topics on crevice pumps. Some using yabby pumps.
I just bought the device in the first link. $12 from Bias boating. Should be easy to adapt for crevicing.
I hope you find some useful info.

Hey Ramjet,
How did you find the unit from BIAS boating?
I have placed it on to my yabbie pump, with hoses from Bunnings and found that there is a fault with the unit.
Ran a test with the sand from my buckets.
The intake is OK, but the outtake needs to be modified. That is there is only one rivet holding the blue outtake section, so tomorrow I will insert two more rivets and this should hold. Retesting the unit will show more adjustments.

Peter.
