Lol me doing that was just a tiny bit staged but when it actually broke the first time I did exactly that 😝 you can only put up with so much before you start tossing things 🤣. Thanks for watching!
Was annnnnybody else secretly, Grinch-like waiting for the handle to split again, or the head to fall off when he started raking again, & him to get uber pissed and golf club chuck it across the yard? Or maybe I'm just the only evil Grinch here 😈😅😁 Good form, DIY Dad!
A good reason to repair instead of automatically replace, beyond getting back to your project sooner, is because there is no planet B. This is planet A, and its resources are finite. Our children and grandchildren will thank us for reducing, reusing and recycling.
Iwona and David Guier as an IT guy that likes to repair electronics rather than replace, this is why my mower is 25 years old and my vacuum is 30 😁. Also saves money!
For 1-2 hour of your time and $15-20 you can drive to the nearest hardware store and buy a new handle that isn't beyond its useful age and be back to work that same day. I appreciate fixing things rather than replacing them but some things should just be replaced. This is a great option for anyone who cant afford a new handle and has lots of time to waste.
Hi! Looks like it worked. = ) - my trying to 'fix' usually entails repairing what i need to work on first. ~ please Don't complain' that your Yard Rake isn't new, Old beats new Any day! It's a Great thing what you did. lol you didn't say 'dig up grass' - with that rake? Your grass looks too thick & healthy, use Fork or Shovel > Much easier.
Karen O yeah this grass is pretty thick back here I dug this corner up a bit to put in a garden along this wall haha! I still have this rake! I bet this thing is 20 years old or more. Thanks for watching!
💯😂😂😂😂💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 wow dude I love you that’s just how I was I’m hoping the rest of the video will show me how to put that cheap shit back together THANK YOU
K.Kswag lol it might just get you by in a pinch if your crap breaks in the middle of a project and you need to get some quick work done. When in doubt maybe a couple of small screws and some duck tape 🤣. I’ve since replaced this rake anyway it was as old as I am lol.
It’s probably held on with a different design then. You could put a wood screw through the handle to hold it in place put one on each side, or even use a bolt. Drill a hole through the handle and then secure it with a bolt through with a nut and washer on the opposite end. That’s going to be the most secure compared to just a screw. Hope that helps!
Kinda interesting I do have a newer rake such as your that I am trying to figure how to get the sleeve off of Most of my tools are much different from this They are left overs from when my grandfather began farming in the mid 80s ....1880s that is My tools are mostly assembled by forge welding and the handles are desintergrating from just so much experience
Bob Clifton wow that’s cool that you have all those older tools, I bet those will last forever! I bet some of the handles and heads are pinned on or crimped on in some way. I’ve even seen some screwed to wood handles, I’ll have to take a look at some of my other tools. My shovel is pinned to the handle with a rivet and it slips over the top of the handle. Check out wrangestar on RUclips that guy has a few videos on restoring tools as well, I’ll see if I can find a link.
You throwing the rake after it broke was EXACTLY what I did when my rake broke hahahahaha dad life

WOW! U R a pretty smart Dad. Wish I had someone so helpful at my home. I don't so I'm subscribing!!! Take care & God Bless u & your family.
Appreciate the kind words, thanks for watching!!!
Great feeling of fixing your own tools. Plus you add to your skill set.
Totally! And saves a bit of money at the same time. Thanks for watching!
I need the sleeve. I can find them anywhere. I'm to cheap to buy a whole new tool and just want to get my project finished
Hhahaha love this! Just happened to us the other day. Great channel my friend. Can't wait to see more of your vids!
Baza Bros thanks for watching and commenting! Always trying to have some fun with my videos 😁

Yeah I eventually ended up just replacing it anyway lol this is great in a pinch though.
For those of you that use rakes for a living use pvc pipe for a lightweight forever replacement.
I made it with Woodglut plans!

This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.

What do you do if you don’t have metal collar
It’s probably held on with a different design then. You could put a wood screw through the handle to hold it in place put one on each side, or even use a bolt. Drill a hole through the handle and then secure it with a bolt through with a nut and washer on the opposite end. That’s going to be the most secure compared to just a screw. Hope that helps!
if it originally had a metal collar but it is lost or broken, maybe try winding it with baling wire.
Woodglut Blueprints has some very useful blueprints with all the details you need.
I’ll check it out thanks for sharing!
@@DIYDad1 Awesome 🔨⚒️

Bob Clifton check out this video as well I found it helpful. Good luck! ruclips.net/video/j5UH0Y4KurY/видео.html
The attaching is out of site.
Wish there wasn't music. Can't hear you.
Lower the radio volume if you want your dialog to be properly understood,
Here is a comment
I've heard good feedback about the Woodglut plans.
My adventure with woodworking started with Woodglut.
Lol
All the action of putting the rake to handle happens ABOVE THE PICTURE! Major fail.
Yeah sorry for my noob video skills I did this a couple years ago lol.
:29 temper temper
Hahaha! Thought it would make a funny video 😝 thanks for watching!
Can do with out the music sounds porn like too loud.
