  1. Money didn't stretch to a Thwaites dumper, but I needed something to haul dirt fast, so I researched wheelbarrows, filtered by (MaxLoad/MaxVolume > 2.5) and bought the one with the cheapest price per volume.

    Well, after watching a youtube review where some guy takes his frontloader and dumps two scoops of dirt all over his cart without it collapsing.

    Cames as flatpack furniture and after doing several kilometers around the garden with safety inspector #Knirps inside (he refused to get out) it also seems to haul dirt well enough and its even possible to dump it by hand without breaking yourself in half.

    It cost less than a new set of moped wheels for the old farm wheelbarrow 🤷‍♂️

  6. Hmm, could use some kind of dumper right about now 😅

    Also some new wheels and tyres for this thing. Those are really hard to find (at a non-ridiculous price, that is).

    Anyone got some Simson moped wheels laying around they don't need?

  11. How to fix this wheelbarrow:

    1. New tire for $10.00 at Harbor Freight (check your exact size)
    2. New wheelbarrow grips for $12 or so. (I was cheap, and replaced mine with old bicycle tires).

  16. First time this wheelbarrow has been used in at least a decade, lol. Not sure if the dog is attacking me because using tools is verboten, OR because he peed on the wheelbarrow and it was marking a corner of the yard, and I am moving his territorial marker. (Either is a possibility) #wheelbarrow #repair

  21. Almost done! Went rummaging around a bucket of bolts and found two that would work. Now I just need to hacksaw off the too long bolts and give it another layer of linseed oil. I opted for just whatever bolts I had here with large washers instead of carriage bolts. #ReduceRepairReuseRecycle #repair #diy #wheelbarrow

  26. Also done earlier, the wheelbarrow wedges I ordered did not match the old wedge. Just went and cut new ones on the table saw. But now, wonder if that wedge was also jury rigged. 🤔 #repair #wheelbarrow

  31. Aha! This should work. The spacing between the two sides of the wood are now tight enough the wheel will stay in place. #wheelbarrow

  36. Uh oh! Made a serious, strategic mistake in the wheelbarrow project. Will likely require reordering yet another set of handles. (Will reconsider what to do in daylight). Do not copy a heavily modified/jury rigged piece of equipment, is the lesson here. #wheelbarrow #ReduceRepairReuseRecycle #repair

  41. Wheelbarrow parts repainted. New wheel acquired. Waiting on handles. (Will still be cheaper than a brand new wheelbarrow, but not as cheap as snagging a free one off the curb). Restoring it for family sentimental reasons more than anything, lol. #wheelbarrow #ReduceRepairReuseRecycle #repair
