Copper Tools

Viktor Schauberger rediscovered the benefits of copper gardening tools.

  • They don’t rust.
  • The edges stay sharp.
  • The metal is known to deter slugs and snails.
  • They are hardwearing and last for years with a longer life than iron or steel'.
  • Copper, being non-magnetic, assists the flow of plant-nourishing earth energies.
  • Viktor Schauberger is not well known. Born in Austria in 1885 he had a gift for observing nature.

    When he saw the effect a university education had on his brothers thinking - by limiting them to ‘academic’ views and alienating them from nature - he decided to become a forester like his forbears. He learnt through reading, from the wise and working things out for himself.

    After the war, he turned his hand to farming and developed copper plated ploughs that provided greater yields than steel ones without fertilisers. They did not go into commercial production because they threatened investors business interests.

    In 1999 Callum Coats published his translation of Schauberger's 'Living Energies', which is the standard reference work on Viktor Schauberger's ideas and he studied with Schauberger’s son, Walter, in Austria.' The book has sections on commercial field trials and includes; page 197 - Experiments with Copper Implements in Agriculture; page 198 - Field trials; page 199 - Results: copper 58% greater yield than steel  ...

    He also made significant discoveries about water and nature’s use of creative implosive energy, instead of the explosive and destructive method used today. In a university water test one of his devices energy consumption was 'over unity', i.e. it created more energy than it used and so disobeyed the first law of thermodynmics: that energy is conserved. The university chnaged the results to zero. Unfortunately, science didn't know about quantum physics then, and that the law only applies to a 3D world, so the energy can come from other dimensions.
