Just bought my first pitchfork, any advice on how to work the tines for a better toss?
Thanks. |

For a start, polish the tines until they look like chrome.

Is there any certain size? What do you polish them with? I bought this one at the Ace Hardware store.

I used a dremel to take off the ridge and burrs. Then I
took three types of grit sandpaper, and started with the roughest and worked my way down to the fine. Then I used a polishing compound and used my buffer on my drill. I might be crazy, but I love working on stuff like this.....kinda feels like I'm preparing for battle. |
