Sorry squirrels, no more black walnuts for you to make a mess of my yard and furniture
Highly recommend this tool (size large). Better and faster then picking up by hand and no constant bending over to pick black walnuts off the ground. Wire basket hold a lot of the walnuts so less trips to the bucket and the unloader tool makes removing the walnuts from the basket a breeze. I wish I found this tool years ago. (FYI, I do take a bunch of the nuts and put them in pile off property so the squirrels have some of them to eat)
A great accessory to any nut gathering tool… when it works.
I purchased Unloader for Nut Wizard because it looked like a perfect way to do a simple unloading of the nut wizard basket. However, the Unloader does not fit many buckets that are available today. At my disposal I had several plastic 5 gallon buckets, but the bend in the nut wizard wouldn’t accommodate the lip of the 5 gallon bucket. I actually had to whittle away portions of the 5 gallon bucket’s lip in order to get the nut wizard to fit, and even then it would fall off when I tried to use it. I finally had to drill some holes into a ridge around the top of the bucket in order to fit the Unloader’s two prongs more securely into the ridge. Once I did all that it worked fine. I get that it’s just a simple piece of metal that’s been bent in an elaborate way, and that makes it easy to manufacture. But anyone wanting to purchase it should be aware that they may need to make some adaptations to their own situation in order to get it to work reliably.
