I don’t even remember it being dented in that spot. The physics of it are a mystery to me.
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Why use a broom when you could use a leaf blower? I mean yeah, it's annoyingly loud, uses electric or fuel, can take even more time than a broom if you lack technique, and is probably extreme overkill, but when you want to get that garage floor cleaner than it's ever been -- including under the shelves -- leaf blower is the way to go.
I did use a leaf blower at the end but the salt required some initial mechanical persuasion.
I would have preferred to pressure wash and be done with it but I have no drain in my garage and I recently broke my floor squeegee (having bad luck with handles lately it seems lol).
Yup. Sometimes it just needs that overkill. The garage I used the leaf blower in belonged to a relative and hadn't been cleaned in well over a decade, and after I got done with all the heavy work of moving all the shelves and boxes around I didn't have much enthusiasm for the good sweep it really needed. Plus the leaf blower got all the cobwebs I couldn't reach under and around the shelves, win/win. There was a water softener but no hardened salt anywhere, fortunately.
I don't know if you've seen this kind of second handle, that's just an example (non-affiliate link), but for straight handled tools that also need force they're a back saver.
Wet/dry vac is a better option. A leaf blower is just going to blow dust (of who knows what) everywhere.
It takes technique. Handle it like a pressure washer, at a sharp angle to the ground but slightly lifted in the direction you want the air to go, and it moves dirt the same way. But on the whole it was not a serious suggestion, though I've done it when I just couldn't be bothered with sweeping a LOT of dirt.
Ah ok good to know.
