I use a length of 15mm copper tube with a length of 1/2" steel inside it for
ejection.
I place the copper tube directly over the centre of the dandy, push down a
good few inches, then retract. I then eject plug of 'lawn' into bin, using
the 1/2" rod. More often than not, the plug contains the whole root.
It leaves a clean cut hole in the lawn, ideal for filling with
sand/compost/seed, or leaving alone!

That's very ingenious!
