If you have a favorite rake that gives you blisters, check out this tip to eliminate blisters.

Some of us are blessed with a plethora of leaves to rake and then add to our compost piles or use as mulch in the garden. We love this resource, but all the raking wrecks our hands.

To get more miles out of your hands, put 3/4" pipe insulation around the handle of your rake.
