Was cleaning yard waste (leaves, bottlebrush debris etc) from the back yard. Should have stopped there, because I decided to clean the driveway and car port. As I was pushing a pile of leaves, the head of the push broom came off.
I looked at it and was rather disgusted to find the wood screws used to attach the handle to the broom head were less than a half inch in length. The broom head is well over an inch thick, and the screws should have been close to that length.
I'll see how ambitious aikidomayland is. Fix the broom with 4 longer wood screws, or get a new one.
Alan helped me get the swept up piles of leaves cleared out, so at least it's not a job half done.
