The Furrow Hoe

I had saved the furrow attachment from an old Troybilt tiller I once had, figuring that one day it might be of use. About five years ago I got the idea that if it were welded to a handle it might be a great tool for opening up potato furrows or whatever. So a friend did that for me, welding it on to a piece of pipe and adding a nut and bolt so that I could change the angle of the head. It doesn't get used much but is handy when needed. It was just used to open deep furrows for planting leeks.

Waste not, want not! :D

You must have been a New Englander in a prior life.

Nope, just a junk collector. :lol: Actually, if it has a possible practical use I don't consider it junk. Lots of folks have a "boneyard" or "possibles pile". There's an old frosted glass sliding door from a shower down in the back being saved for maybe using as the top of a cold frame... "some day". Lord only knows how it's survived this long without some limb falling and busting it up.
