Projects
So I have had this little Planet Junior Horse Hoe for a few years. It
came from my dad who had put handles on it made of spruce. They rotted
from sitting outside so I started the replacement project tonight. The
new handles came from an Old Order Mennonite wood shop in Elmira,
Ontario. I have an extra set on hand and may sell them.

Looking for some wood dowels to put braces between the handles.

Problem with pages is that I have not figured out how to just post here.
Anyway I did find some 1" maple doweling and have got those installed
between the handles. I guesstimated from the pictures on the net that
they would be about 6" apart and I counter sunk them about 1/4" to get a
better tight fit.
Now to oil the wood and bolt/screw to finish. I can't decide what to do
about the metal as it would be nice to get it stripped and finish
painted but is it worth the money?
The finished product in the garden. I may decide to paint the scuffler yet too!

Visited Honeywood Heritage Nursery and found this scuffler in a flower
bed. I m not sure what brand it is as I did not want to walk in the
flower bed. I do think it is a Plant Junior but I will try to find out
for sure.
