Off-Road Road Repair without Modern Machines

The use of slip-scrapers in road repair, construction, and other areas has been with us for centuries. The tool is still useful in parts of the world where construction equipment or other modern equipment isn't easily accessible. Plus, it's much quieter and more peaceful than nearly any other tool capable of the same thing.
