This is a long over due restoration for my wheelbarrow. She has been living outside in the elements for many years. The hot and cold, rain and morning frost have taken a toll on her. I've fixed the arm on her twice. The tire has fallen off at least twice , so I had to bolt her back together. Her poor, sad tire also has a slow leak. It held air long enough to do a job , but the flat would return next time I needed her help. I've had her for such a long time, I couldn't even think of just sending her to the dumps. So, I decided to give a once over. Clean her up, getting all the rust off and put on a few good coats of fresh paint. I gave her brand new arms with extra protection from Shou-Sugi-Ban (japanese way of protecting wood) on the outside and even fixed her little tire.
Wait til you see the end result. She is a brand new wheelbarrow and a very happy one, too.
Little info on the wheelbarrow (not Wheel Barrel):
A wheelbarrow is a small hand-propelled vehicle, usually with just one wheel, designed to be pushed and guided by a single person using two handles at the rear, or by a sail to push the ancient wheelbarrow by wind. The term "wheelbarrow" is made of two words: "wheel" and "barrow." "Barrow" is a derivation of the Old English "bearwe" which was a device used for carrying loads.
The wheelbarrow is designed to distribute the weight of its load between the wheel and the operator, so enabling the convenient carriage of heavier and bulkier loads than would be possible were the weight carried entirely by the operator. As such it is a second-class lever. Traditional Chinese wheelbarrows, however, had a central wheel supporting the whole load. Use of wheelbarrows is common in the construction industry and in gardening.
