RE Use for swivel of rake.
I use the swivel feature of my landscape rake for only one purpose - to run it in reverse. I first use the rake in the normal orientation to pull washed-out sand from the edge of the water back up onto my lakeshore and fill in the eroded gullies. All the weeds and debris get raked up during this process as well.
Then I make a final smoothing pass with the rake reversed to erase all the wheel ruts. It rides nicely over the top of the sand with just enough pressure from its own weight to smooth without digging in. The sand looks like its ready for a pro volleyball tournament when I am done!
