  1. This should be a part of every cook's arsenal
    Every now and then I run across a simple little tool that I knew about but never owned. I always used the side of my chefs knife to transfer chopped, diced or minced food to the pan or bowl. I thought that a scoop or shovel was not necessary and was better suited for amateurs. Then I was...
  2. Great kitchen tool
    I love this bench scraper. It's large -- 5 x 6 inches, including the handle -- so some people might find it awkward. But I like that you can scoop up everything in one shot. The handle is comfortable, but what I like most is that the sides have an edge sloping down from the handle, so chopped...

Hi, I have got a set of 3 fire place tools (Shovel, Brush, etc.) with nice handles. What material are they off?

The repetitive tasks of various forms of manual work can lead to cumulative trauma disorders, increasing staff burn-out rates and the number of sick-days taken by employees.

The Tool Shovel with discount

  • The Ace of Spades (or possibly Shovels)

    Sorry! No blog for four months…….. very slack of me. I mean, it’s not as if there is   anything for gardeners to do in the winter months is there? Of course, I’ve got my excuses at the ready: RHS exams taking over my life; projects to write up; Latin classes to attend. Anyway, it appears that some people do read my blog and they’ve started to nudge me, not very subtly, to get blogging.

    As my brain is still aching from RHS exams and all the aforementioned excuses, this is going to be a light hearted blog about tools.

    Since working in horticulture I’ve starting observing a few things about garden tools and how different people use them. For instance, I’ve noticed that if two gardeners are going to do the same job we’ll likely take out different tools to achieve the same end. I’ve also noticed that as my traineeship has progressed I have started to favour some tools over others; casting aside previous favourites for my latest preference.

     

    Phil's Workbench: Tweezers and a diamond shovel

    Of course the tools are the very same that we model makers use, in fact there was a pretty big crossover between the items in the shop and the contents of the Squires catalogue . The biggest difference was the price. Presumably when your raw material costs a lot, you spend money of equipment ! I really fancy a Jewellers workbench but at 900 quid it's a bit beyond my means at present. Beautifully made though.

    Compost « Amy Pollien

    Today, December 4, 2010, was a perfect day in the garden. I’m writing this so I can look back on this post in years to come and say, what? Really? Because your typical Maine early December day is not a balmy 40 degrees, perfectly still, with the sun peeping out from the low, smooth gray cloud cover like it was today. Yes, I needed a fleece vest, wool tights, gloves and a hat but still – no mosquitoes! The day length this time of year is tough too. I had to clean up my tools at 3:30 this afternoon, ahead of full dark at 4:30.

    We have a big black “ Earth Machine ” composter just to the right of the front door. I bought it through the town Conservation Commission and, as much as I hate to buy plastic to make dirt, it works like a charm. A full year of kitchen waste goes in and I dig the results out of the bottom door in the fall, complete with a vast families of red worms that take up residence and multiply over the summer.

    Step 1: Spread a tarp in the immediate vicinity, grab a wheelbarrow, shovel, compost turner (optional but handy) and a stout pair of gloves (required). Open the small door at the bottom of the compost bin and poke around with the turner or a long handled weeder to break up the stuff on the bottom of the bin. It will be moist and full of eggshells and avocado pits that don’t compost completely, and full of worms.

    The compost turner is the metal stake with the green plastic handle in the photo. The business end has two metal “wings” bolted to a fairly sharp point. You poke into the pile and when you pull the tool back the wings flip down and pull material with it. Very handy for stirring the pile, or breaking up clumps.

    Step 2: Shovel the loosened compost into the wheelbarrow and distribute around the garden. I prefer to dig a hole in an established bed and dump a few shovel-fulls of compost in the hole, then cover it with soil. The worms will spread out through the rest of the bed on their own, and they won’t freeze solid tonight, which they might if I just sprinkled them in a thin layer of compost over the top. Of course, you could argue that I could just do this earlier in the season and not have that problem, but whatever. I can’t believe I’m doing this in early December either.
