Wheel Barrow From Freecycle

I snagged a wheelbarrow from freecycle, but the front where the wheel is attached was all weathered and rotted.  So I sawed off the rotted out wood and custom cut a replacement brace and used an antique clamp to hold the glued new piece in place.  After a few hours I drilled holes that will have carriage bolts to hold the brace permanently in place.  The wheel needs replaced and I may need to elevate the brackets that hold the wheel so that it doesn't rub the barrow.  I may need this to work by moving day as I don't have a dolly.  When I moved last summer I lost the use of the wheel barrow and so I am glad I finally found  a free one.  Thanks freecycle.

Radio Flyer

I have an old Radio Flyer wagon that I use everyday as I do not have a wheel barrow YET! It is a wicked good wagon, "as they say in Maine"! This stump weighs a lot and I threw my right arm out of it's socket getting it up my hill. But I needed the truck for another project so it had to come out....for the good of all. I am getting ready to make this stump into something wonderful that I have been trying to get going for years. I will keep you faithful 10 followers informed, as well as my shadow followers.
