You Need One of These When Raking in the Yard! #tools #diy #nhs2025 #lawncare

What happens here

Once the rakes are configured as tongs, use them to scoop up large piles of leaves or other yard debris. Position the opened rake heads around the material and then bring the rake handles together to close the tongs, gathering a significant volume. The video demonstrates picking up an amount equivalent to a five-gallon bucket of material with ease.

Goal: Efficiently pick up and move large quantities of leaves and yard waste.

And you stop about a foot away, and it takes two rates and turns them into tongs. Awesome, dude. And then you can go like this and scoop and you're able to pick up pretty large amounts, five gallon buckles. Yeah, that's usually a five gallon buck, it's worth of material. And now when you're ready to keep breaking, you just simply open them up, turn one rake, and now you have your rake back in the raking position.
