The Deck Tool
Do you have a deck on your home? How often are you driven mad by the leaves and other bits of material that get stuck between the boards? Lucky for you (and all of us!) The Deck Tool exists to alleviate these problems. The tool is the brainchild of founder George Wilson.

These are almost impossible to get out. A big problem in the fall was that the bright purple sweet gum leaves that make the trees so beautiful will really stain the light gray deck when they lie on the deck and get wet. Continue reading
