Description: 3D-printing has tremendous, positive potential. It offers people a growing capacity to bypass the for-profit, globalized marketplace for their tools/products. In this spirit, I designed this simple, completely free(/open-source), leaf rake. And I will continue to design along these lines….. If you print this rake, let me know how it goes(!) (-consider posting a "Make"). Also, if you have any questions, criticisms, and/or any engineering/design tips, please don't hesitate to share your thoughts below. *I would like to improve this design.* I will almost certainly make an updated(/lighter?) version (or versions) of this rake later on. -There's always room for improvement. -Thank you for looking! ∼Peace.
