the other day i thought about our friend "kustom koncepts" i had not seen him on the forums and with the news of the floods i sent him an email, he probably would not have told us here but he has been making "sand bag chutes" to assist in his city, after seeing this i felt compelled to show you guys.

thanks for sharing! :)

Yea, I read that story a while back, all that water/ice/snow in the cold winter, would suck.

When I first saw this photo here (http://inapcache.boston.com/universal/site_graphics/blogs/bigpicture/redriver_03_27/r03_18410273.jpg), a couple months back, I was thinking, hasn't someone invented a machine to fill & tie off sandbags automatically? I would think something like the machines that hook to the back of a dump truck to pave roads, only instead fill & tie off a bunch of sandbags all at the same time, until the dumptruck is empty, then hook up to another dumptruck & repeat...
