Rake Any Other Use for Pine Needle Rake Before I Sell It?

[robertm]

So, I have a new pine needle rake that I never really used since I modified my landscape. Is there any other use for it I should consider before getting rid if it? Looks like one of those "gotta have another purpose" implements.

The week after you sell it you will find a use for it

Will it work for dethatching your lawn? Have a picture? Jon

Do you have a pine needle rake that is used to windrow them for baling?

Or do you have a pine needle rake that just collects them in a pile?

I have used my original rake enough that it is finally worn out. I find it a great tool for smoothing, covering grass seed and the normal clean up work where a landscape rake is too aggressive.

I use mine when seeding a new lawn. After the seed has been spread use the rake to lightly scratch it into the soil. Has worked well for me getting a good germination.

I have the EA rake, not the fancy windrow machine. I have an estate rake that dethatches like a dream, and windrows in the process. Thus, the need to get rid of the EA rake. I used it to clean up under a few hundred feet of spruce, then reseed and cleanup. Now, the rake sits.
