New results testing bulk scooping of 10mm and 12mm faceted beads with
front-end loader, backhoe, and Technic seat as scoops:

Scooping:    The larger 10mm and 12mm faceted beads scooped more completely
than the smaller 6mm and 8mm sizes.  All sizes scooped well from deep piles,
but attempts to chase  just a few beads up a vertical surface failed to grab
all of the 6mm and 8mm beads.

Prices: 10mm 48pcs $0.45USA.  12mm 36pcs $0.45USA.

Bouncing and rolling on smooth hard surface:  The larger beads rolled
and bounced less than the smaller beads when dropped from a height of 5cm.

Has anyone found larger faceted beads or other polyhedra suitable for
scooping and low in price?

Faceted beads scoop well with the LEGO front-end loader, back hoe, and Technic seat. The 8mm size works better than the 6mm size.
