![Rake in the Shavings](https://www.woodworkersjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/TTRake.jpg)
Cleaning up a big pile of fluffy or wet shavings after an evening of turning can give your shop broom a real workout. I find that a small garden rake kept near the lathe does a better job with less effort, and the tines don’t wear out as quickly as broom bristles.
