How to make a scraper-ice ax with your own hands
Scraper from ax with own hands
In winter we do not have to live without a scraper-ice ax. I tried to buy in the store, but when the 2 scraper bent over the season, and the ice had to be pounded with grandfather scrap, I realized that it was necessary to do a good, solid and comfortable thing with my own hands.
At first I decided to use a piece of a circular saw. I fixed it in a wooden pole (I won’t talk about the torment of the process, the result obtained is not worth it). The canvas cracked after a couple of minutes of ice-breaking. I tried to apply a piece of cloth from a two-handed saw. The scraper turned out to be very nice looking, but also short-lived - it bent and turned into a scoop.
To get a good ice ax scraper, I needed a piece of metal pipe for the handle (wooden is inconvenient to join), an old ax and a good welder. The latter is a must, I, having no experience, welded for the first time so that the ax fell off from a strong blow, almost depriving me of my toes.
By the way, for safety reasons, especially sharpen the point of the ax is not worth it.
To the hands of the tube-handle during the work did not slip, I advise immediately pull on it a piece of corrugated rubber hose. Long tires in the cold, of course, can not stand, but for the season will suffice.
