2 quick projects
First the crappy snow shovel. Broke the handle and couldn稚 bear to throw it out. 18$ shove and bought a 9$ handle. Neede to shim it and this should hold better(at least until the shovel part breaks)



Second was a slightly bent arm on this jack. I broke a toe when using it to remove a carriage from a forklift. Put it in the hossfeld bender to tweak. Not perfect but better. Stopped when I moved the 1500lb bench.

We all need to decide whether to fix something or just toss it. I can admire someone who can repair their tools to better serve them when needed.

Amen
Couldn’t bear to throw it out

18.99 replacement cost with weak handle, likely to break again vs 20 min and a 9.99 handle
Will see
If it holds!
