Best use for a hand rake I seen yet. 
Congratulations and carry on. |

Hmmm, I can see a few jobs that rake would work good for. I might have to build something like that. Seems I keep running across those rakes with no handles. |

gday
well i got the bottom hitch sorted when i got it made they forgot the lift hole so i did this
i made this rake type thing up it only made from 3 cheap shop rakes with handles chopped off lol it was only a test it would work ok on a set size driveway rock or lawn loam or any loose stuff it no good for my rocky spots lol
i spouse i can turn it upside down and use it as a type of a drag
what i need is a brinly sleeve hitch cultivator but no hope of finding 1 of them over here? i going to have to make 1.
i was surprised on how easy it was to lift that rake
ok thanks all

Well, gee, scummy you have been busy. Looks like it is all coming together just fine. I like your little garage. Your heading into winter down there.. What does that mean? What is that dog in the photo? |
