Diy chopping and cutting tools.


Here's two more garden tools I made last spring.The first is a knife used to chop material to compost,kelp etc. It's made from a lawn mower blade and fitted with a oak handle.Here I'm chopping some kelp/seaweed to add to my small seed beds.The combination of a long blade and good weight makes it a excellent tool for this job.  
The second tool is set of loppers,these are made out of a couple steel plates and two pieces of galvanize pipe.I've used them all summer at various jobs around the garden and my rustic furniture projects.Both are very useful tools.
