While the Flimsy Shovel will break after 30 uses, the Shovel is more durable. But to get it, you will have to get the Flimsy Shovel first and use it in your Shovel recipe.

Here is the recipe for both of the Shovels:

  • Flimsy Shovel- (5x) Hardwood

If you don’t want to wait, you can also get the Flimsy Shovel by buying it for 800 Bells.

And there you have it, this was how you could get both, the slingshot & shovel in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
