Lawn care tools

Aww, go ahead... it don't cost to drool. ;)

Damn you, Sheldon! :-)

Back in the mid 70s, I had occasion to drive a half dozen 911s. I worked at a store in Great Neck that did custom audio & alarm systems. One lawyer liked out work so much, all his partners had to have the same systems. They paid extra for us to drive our cars into Manhattan & park, and take their Porsches out to Great Neck. What idiots, letting a couple of lunatics drive their cars.

The Midtown Tunnel looks really interesting at 90+ mph. Only got to do it once, though. Too much traffic the other times.

Still looking for above-described rake with fine, thin metal teeth.

Any sources around L.A.?

Where have you looked so far?

The message from Persephone contains these words:

Over here those are called a grass rake or lawnrake, if that helps the search.

I wonder why anyone would need a leaf rake in L.A. The few deciduous trees that grow there do not grow well.

They're useful for raking other plant debris besides leaves.

And I have "other plant debris" out the kazoo! Neighbors' bushes overhang my fence and drop leaves. My (former) bamboo used to shed those little sheathes all over the place! And on & on.

See above- OSH and Home Despot.

That's what I thought. Why not some real garden stores, instead of places like HD that sell tools for amateurs? Open the yellow pages and let your fingers do the walking. If you don't have a phone book, go here:

Not capable of differenciating between different organic matter, along with the leaves those blowers also loosen/disturb and blow away the season's newly formed humous... they really should only be used on paved areas.... to remove debris lawn areas should only be raked.
