This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Round Wood Woodworking.

As your roundwood construction skills are improving, it's time to make some tools.  Let's try our hand at making a garden rake!

 
 

Here's Mr. Chickadee building one.  Since this is the roundwood badge, let's pretend he split that hunk of wood from a log (he probably did):


Minimum requirements:
  - Make a garden rake or row marker
  - Wide crossbar with at least 6 teeth
  - Sized to be used while standing up

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Log(s) you're starting with
  - Midway through construction
  - Finished rake or row marker
