Tierra Garden 900105 Trake - Combination Trowel and Rake Garden Hand Tool

My collection has grown to about five of these TRAKES in the last few years. I don't know if Tierra Garden uses that trade name, but that's what I refer to my gardening tools as. In this case, I would say I am an experienced As a gardener, I spend a lot of time in the garden. It is very common for me to container garden. When you can hold a tool that works on both ends, that is more convenient. Those who grow plants in containers will benefit from it. It's a good idea to have a screwdriver handy if you expect the aluminum trowel tip to break. I was grateful to my husband for grinding the broken tip into a very round, usable edge so I could continue to use the old one. In general, it would be advisable, when you buy one, to keep it clean and not to leave it in an area where fertilizer and other such substances A very handy tool, which I love to use, can be made to last longer through this technique. To prevent laying tools on the grass, I spray paint the handles International Orange since I am not good at laying them down on grass. The grass won't get trampled over and I won't overlook it by accident. A good habit to form is to lend tools to a neighbor as well.

There ought to be a law that prohibits businesses from not including a copy of such labels as part of This is a huge pile of them I got for my Outdoor Classroom, but now I can't present them to the Other 1 star reviews have stated that these are cheaply made, and I’m certain that is true here as well. A long time ago, I did not have that label on the first one I bought. *BEAR IN MIND If you use this product you will be exposed to Di'(2- Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), which has been linked to cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm according to the State of California.

Raking debris from a bed with a rake is impossible in some areas, and this long tool makes it easier to bend so one does not have to bend as much. Since I would have to bend a lot to dig holes for planting, sitting on my chair helps ease the pain in my back. My tip broke off the trowel while I was digging up some plants for dividing after I got a bit rough with the tools.

Having used trakes for years, I am very familiar with them. Whenever I need assistance, they're my first choice For its ease of use, sturdy construction, and ergonomic design, the tool has become a gardening favorite. In addition, they do not rust. When I rake back the dirt, I can expose the roots of the weed, then flip the tool to dig them out. After that, I just rake back into the hole the dirt I removed. Rake out the mulch, dig a hole, insert a bulb or annual, then rake it all back in. Several members of my gardening group have given me traxes as gifts who were obviously appreciative of them. (I just can't or won't do it! our garden without my rake.

This worked fine for fifteen years, is handy, well built, and by far my favorite tool for the garden The fact that I left it out in the garden for days at a time does not excuse me from parking my Volvo XC90 over it. But I was in the wrong spot and at the wrong time. We are grateful to Ganesha, because the tines of the rake In the long run, the replacement is as solid as the old *brace yourself**brace yourself

My Felco clippers seem to have taken it recently, since it has wandered away from my yard. My elation in finding this Trake, which is so close to my favorite tool of all time, was nothing short of astounding. It is so sturdy yet light weight and very ergonomic because of its two different ends. Despite being made of cast aluminum, this tool will not rust. * I will stop gushing now, but trust me, this tools is a tool that every gardener needs.

Our order for Trakes 3 and 4 involves the acquisition of numbers 3 and 4. We find this tool to be highly functional for gardening and landscape yard work, such as planting plants and digging out tree roots and rootlets. In particular, the claw end can be used to create a channel that will accommodate a two-inch tube. Drilling a hole prepared for planting a shrub or tree with irrigation tubing of 0". It is due to operator error when this occurs, after exceeding the limits of the manufactured metal, that an additional number needs to be ordered when that occurs. The same tool with the same design made out of steel, on the other hand, would not be susceptible to this disadvantage and would, no doubt, be marketed at a higher price with less inherent risk of cracking while being used as a miniature machine to replace a larger one A few words Here it is. Regardless, this tool has been a great success and the 10 years we have been using it have been greatly satisfying and useful It is our responsibility to use the tool without causing negative side effects that come from our overly aggressive use beyond what it was designed for. fractures occur, I reshape the fractured ends with the use of a grinding wheel. The fractured ends take on a rounded appearance which is not quite as functional as sharply pointed configurations. The fracture will not occur if the product is used properly. Delivery of the site took place in a timely manner and was well received.

It is my favourite, most useful gardening tool of all time and my old one lived forever until my husband broke the digging piece off. I have found a new one online and it is the same as the old one. I love the multi-functionality and how sturdy it is In a hand tool, you'll need to be able to use it for a range of purposes, plus it doesn't have to be extremely heavy to carry around when covering I was very pleased with the transaction, fast shipping, and looking forward to the shiny one after mine worked tirelessly for me all these years. Thanks a lot!.
