In the sprit of locost!!
recently ou house had to mow our lawn, we are meant to keep it cut short, however when the grass is reaching 2 foot in height this is pushing it abit
so we cut it down.
this left alot of grass on the lawn which needed raking. not being the type to buy a rake. we made one the locost way with an old mop, a chopping
board a bike wheel and a whole lot of string!
surprisingly it worked really well and have now put it proud of place on our mantle piece. (yes strange i know) since this is the only locost thing i
have done recently i wanted to show u all!

Could you give me more information on what grade and size of wood you have used for the cross pieces as I am considering building one myself. Do you
think it can be built for under £2.50? Do you know if there are many to be found on ebay as part finished projects that i could maybe pick up cheap?
And finally would you consider producing these in kit format for the members of the forum who are tight on time?
Many thanks,

over budgeted.
