Pitch fork tractor supply

Hello Smart People! I have a plain old plastic manure fork that is useless for frozen-ish poops in barn and haybale area plastic tines snap. If the manure is frozen to the ground I either kick it loose or I use a hammer to dislodge it. Then I simply use my plastic fork to clean it up, pitch fork tractor supply.

I got my shipment from State Line Tack on Wednesday afternoon. UPS and FedEx are slowly figuring out how to navigate my long ass driveway and turn around. But woohoo, Tate now has a stall guard. More airflow yes please. He loves his air conditioning the stall door kept a lot of cool air out and hot air in at night!

I need to replace a pitchfork handle. I think I remember my dad saying you could heat the tang on the head of the fork before tamping into the handle. Is this a good idea? Since the tang on the head are tappered heat it up hot enough to burn the wood as you drive it in. If you drive it all the way in with the metal hot, when the metal cools it will shrink and be loose. I would'nt heat the tang. It is true that metal will expand get larger in OC when heated but unless you have good control of the heat it can also weaken the metal and make it more prone to rusting. I would shape the handle end with a rasp or grinder to closely match the shape and size of the tang. It would be ok to oversize slightly so that it fits snug once it is fully entered into the tang. To get it all the way to the bottom of the tang, turn the fork with the metal tines in the air and stike a block of wood with the top of the handle. The weight of the metal tines and forceful stop against the wood block with jar the metal tang down onto the end of the wood handle. Below are some info from another blog. It is similar to what I have described but he mentions using oil as a lubricant to make the wood slide down into the tang easier.

If you have a small air hammer it works a lot faster. Went right into a brush pilepicked it up, moved it to the burn pile and dumped it. Open door.

A well-designed manure fork should be lightweight, durable, and allow for easy pickup with minimal spillage. Sadly not. Most manure forks are lacking in at least one of these areas. But here are 5 of the best that tick all the right boxes. While they may differ in their construction, with some being made from polycarbonate and others steel, along with their capacity, and number of tines, rest assured that they will get the job done and withstand extensive, daily use. The Little Giant DuraPitch 2 is a favorite with people who clean several stalls every day.

I'm looking at two peices of broken hedge fence post that ought to make a hammer handle, keep looking for a peice long enough for shovel handle.

Follow up question: Where can you find the good forks now days. It has seriously been a game changer. I go thru a lot of these…not really sure if they are any more economical than shavings…still doing the math on this shit… The Tractor Supply pellets are dusty as I knew they would be and I am not sure they are the best material for the pig who is known as Remus but it works great for Tate and his tiny little poops and his tendency to churn his stall like a Nutribullet. Just not long enough. I use a metal landscape rake. So where can I find a good one? It could be rolled over box blade raised to intersect with the hitch. Although you might be better rolling it onto a big scoop shovel with your foot or a flat edge shovel instead of forking it. Some people sure make a lot of work out of a simple thing. So I am hoping that out there somewhere is someone who knows of a better tool.
