Claim:
A tool, comprising: a handle; a head, having: a weight in a range between 1 and 20 pounds, an edge extending completely around a lower perimeter of the head, a planar lower surface adapted to be slid along a surface to be scraped, and a seat of the head opposite the lower surface, an opening extending into the seat to facilitate connecting the handle to the head; and a mount disposed on the seat and including a connector disposed in the opening and connecting the mount to the head, wherein the handle is connected to the mount and the connector does not protrude from the lower surface so that the head can be slid with its lower surface flush with the surface on which it is moved; wherein the mount includes a pivot which permits the handle to pivot relative to the head and a position control feature which selectively limits or prevents movement of the handle relative to the head, the position control feature includes a bracket that permits pivoted movement of the handle relative to the head and a portion of the handle that is arranged to selectively engage the bracket to limit or prevent pivoted movement of the handle relative to the head; and which also includes at least one post and wherein the bracket includes a slot in which said at least one post is received, and wherein the handle is connected to said bracket at the pivot spaced from the post to permit pivoted movement of the handle relative to the head, and a fastener is disposed on said at least one post and is adapted to engage the bracket to selectively limit or prevent pivoted movement of the handle.
