RESISTANT MATERIALS: what joint would you use for a interchangeable garden hand tool?
my teacher gave me a sheet all about garden hand tools so our class could prepare for the exam on monday and it said on it that most interchangeable hand tools can be released and changed with just a simple push of a button. This means that many different heads and handles can be used according to what you need to do. He also gave us a list of materials usually used for garden hand tools, these were stainless steel, high carbon steel, ash (hardwood), polypropylene, pressed steel and forged manganese steel. A useful website with information on their own garden hand tools is www.bulldoghandtools.co.uk this website also has a video to show how the tools are made I hope this helps and good luck in the exam tomorrow!
