First video ive found on the subject where the man Knows what he's doing !!

[@jaystovall37]

This information is 100% correct. I watched it yesterday, bought the replacement handle, banged it in as described. It is in solid! Got back to work in the garden, tuckered out, and grinning ear to ear that it worked.

Great video and thanks for the repair process. I was able to preserve the rake head I've used for 40 years, now on a new handle!

[@El_El_Guapo]

If you have lost the sleeve and are left with a split wood end, wrap the split end with some good tape and tighten the rake to the handle with a few metal hose clamps. Worked for me.

Wow lol I've been holding onto my rake head and handle, I thought it was held together with thoughts and prayers but now I can fix it 😂

[@davidperrie8931]

Thats is the best way to replace the rake handle i found the staple at the end is so the end of the handle doesn't sparl and all i did was sank it in place when you install the head with the dead blows on the ground as shown in your video . Thank you for this awesome simple video. Your awesome.

Thank you sir', Gonna check and see if Ace Hardware has the handle I have a vintage rake head that I really didn't want to just toss out.

[@lisar317]

Great job! Thanks for sharing!

The staple at the end of the handle is there so that the store can hang it on their display, alongside the other types of replacement handles. I broke my handle on my 40 year old rake trying to pull a water soaked log out of the creek behind my house. It broke about half way down inside the ferrule, which happened to be a piece of chrome plated steel. I contemplated just buying a new rake, but the quality of my original makes the new ones look like a piece of junk.

One of my guys just brok my biw rake handle and I was trying to figure out how to do it......this tip worked amazing took maybe 40 seconds

[@weldingandstuff]

Cool

[@orangejuice4332]

Good job. Thank you.

[@Ken-e6v]

Thank you bro!

[@peterford9369]

Hi, mine rotted out because I left it in the rain. I couldn't figure out if the new one had a hole or a split. Obviously the tang is not round so a round hole seemed odd. But you're video showed me the hole is round. So I just cut off the rot and will drill a new hole, taper the end to fit the collar and force it on like u did. I'm an old school carpenter too, so I m well aware of the method of tightening up tool handles 😃. Thanks ma friend.

[@donnadurham9468]

Thank you so much. God bless

I tried it and it took way more than two strikes. Do yourself a favor and just buy a brand new rake.
