A rake (140) includes an elongated head (142) and an elongated handle (144). The elongated head (142) includes a white-metal extruded head blank (148) with a tooth-blanking flange (154) and a handle-attaching flange (158). A plurality of rake teeth (186) are blanked, or otherwise defined, in the tooth-blanking flange (154). A pair of identical handle-attaching brackets (202) each having both a semi-cylindrical portion (206) and a flange portion (208) are used to attach the elongated handle (144) to the elongated head (142). The elongated head (142) includes a lifting portion (162) that cooperates with the rake teeth (186) in a raking step, an ironing portion (166) that provides an ironing step, and a secondary smoothing portion (170) for use in a supplemental smoothing step.
