Are you sitting around wondering what your next DIY project will be?  Look no further!  Here's a relatively quick-n-dirty demonstration by TJPfeister on how to construct a mash rake.  

There's a link to his original article at the end of the full post and also be sure to stop by his club site Green Bay Rackers to see what else they have going on!

  • One 3/8" x 36" poplar dowel (retails for ~$1.00 at local hardware stores)

  • A saw
  • A hammer
  • Some finishing nails

  • A means of measuring

Items that aren't required, but make life a little easier:
  • A drill press
  • A finishing nail gun
  • A mitre box
  • An assistant
