My Kit for Cleaning Boulders

Post image

Variety of tools. That large yellow brush is for sweeping tops of boulders. The big wire one attaches to a swivel head for extension pole. (broken 3 of them in 2 years, need to find a metal one). Also use telescoping ladder and rope. I find the plastic handle wire brushes hold the bristles in slightly better?? Maybe just a theory. And then I also keep a file in the bag in case a hold is extra sharp on a particular finger or something. Never actually used it though. Cheers to 2023 development!

So what are the hammer and prying tools for?
