leaf rake

Post by taabarang »

Has anyone found a place in PP that sells leaf rakes? There are only garden rakes available in Kampong Cham and the immediate vicinity. Much obliged for your help.

Some do and they're pretty useless. Thanks for reminding me; I want one with metal prongs, not bamboo!

Don't use bamboo. Use the spine from the leaf of palm fronds. :thumb:

Let's understand each other. I borrow what is valuable in this culture and supplement it with what I value from mine. Furthermore I've no desire to spend hours making a tool that I will use perhaps 1 hour at a time.
