Hay rake
A hay rake of a type which utilises the natural shape of a branch, roughly shaped with an axe and a knife. One branch of hazel in the shape of a letter Y forms the handle and the two braces fitting into the rake head. The braces are almost naturally symmetrical. The rake head and the sixteen teeth are all made of ash. Two nails secure the braces in the rake head.
