This is a long handled froe. My wife calls a handy Ho. ![]() ![]() I made this one out of a ball peen hammer so the is steel resistant to rust and hard enough to shape sandstone. What do you think? ![]() |
Looks good show. How is the head fixed to the handle? Evan |

I just saw this for the first time today - that's really impressive! I love it. ![]() |

My friend Rob's wife has had this one and started using it. So far she has replanted the strawberry patch and loves it. wants some for the kids. They grow the majority of their food. Said she really liked how it got between all the plants. |

![]() Here is the next project a digging froe with a root cutting ax on the back. Just flip it around and get the woody roots out. High carbon steel also. 2 models a hand held version and one on a long handle. |

I can't sleep and was looking for the right place to ask a question,when i run across this. ![]() If you ever come up with anything light weight i would love to see it!!! Good luck A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!! |
