==== Introduction ====

A shovel is a tool for digging, lifting, and moving bulk materials, such as soil, coal, gravel, snow, sand, or ore.  Most shovels are hand tools consisting of a broad blade fixed to a medium-length handle. Shovel blades are usually made of sheet steel or hard plastics and are very strong.

==== Challenges ====

Enjoyment derived from digging in the dirt tends to be inversely proportional to the amount of dirt.

==== Approaches ====

Build a shovel from Replimat components.
