Garden Tools Restoration: Round Point Spade Painted Flat Black.

This spade restoration really came out nice. I absolutely love the grain on this handle. If you look back to the early pictures the handle on this one was in pretty good shape compared to many of the others. The urethane that once coated the handle was flaking off from sun exposure.

The metal surfaces where badly pitted and the blade was bent. Over all I think this restoration came out quite well.

Markings: USA / Tempered / O
