I have a sandbag – which fits over a car door – as a support for my Wimberley
now the question is – what to fill the sandbag with…
Sand (since it is a sandbag) ?
traveling to the Kgalagadi – I will take it empty and borrow some from the park – or do you have any better ideas? -
Rice or small beans?
-
I have heard those things go vrot – but I have no experience of this myself.

I think sand is the steadiest. But it’s also the heaviest.
And it can be dusty, so I prefer to use river sand that I have washed, or to put a plastic bag inside the sandbag.

thanks Peter. At least if I borrow sand I can return it :)

I use small plastic balls, no problem and they will last forever.

what kind – size – and where do you get it?
They are about 3 x 3mm in size. I got it from a company doing plastic ejection molding about 5 year ago. They were on the campus of the CSIR then but I don’t know if the company is still their.

thanks Christo
