“This photos show how I can change the broken teeth on my wheel hay rake. The clamps free up my hands to replace the teeth, as well as to replace the brackets and bolts,” says Jim Brashears, Olathe, Kan.
  “I start by cutting four 1 by 2’s about 6 in. long. I put a block on either side of the good teeth, in front of and behind the bad tooth. Then I use 4-in. C-clamps to tighten the blocks against the teeth, positioned under the last ring on the wheel.
  “This idea is really handy and saves a lot of time, because I don’t have to fight several teeth for alignment with one hand while putting the brackets and bolts together with the other.”
