Working the wood mountain, old school

[eclecticcottage]

I love my wheel barrow. I use it to move the "junk" to the camp wood pile. We did recently come upon a rusty lawn cart we're going to fix and use the tractor since the tendonitis in my arm isn't helpful when using the wheel barrow, but it's sooo cool I had to take a pic.

Maybe you need a little more air in the tire!

My father uses one that is similar, the entire thing is wood except the wheel

I found the remnants of an antique wheelbarrow in a barn I tore down a couple years back. I plan on making a wood cart wheelbarrow out of that steel wheel someday, out of white oak that I cut down. If I ever get the time.......

Done too much with a wheelbarrow so I'll leave it all to you folks. btw, most of the work with the wheelbarrow was from cleaning the stables...

Wheelbarrows don't fit my hands worth a darn, so I don't use them.

I feel like I have 100,000 miles behind a wheel barrow from my younger days farming and landscaping. I use the ATV and trailer for just about everything now....because I can.

went to a Gardenway cart. no more tip overs and those big wheels go over most anything. I bought mine used many years ago and have replaced the wood and tires twice. well worth the effort for the use.

I've got an ATV and three trailers (well one is the ATV Club trailer and is just stored at my house) . . . but I often find myself using the wheelbarrow my wife insisted on buying even though at the time I told her I would probably not use it that often -- sometimes it is just quicker, quieter and just cheaper to run than using the ATV . . . plus my fat body can use the exercise.

I like that wheel barrow eclectic. My parents had one of those for many years. You could really work the hell out of that thing and it just kept going. I bought one of these double wheel ones about 8 years ago. It was a little expensive, but well worth it. They haul a lot of material and the extra stability helps, I have quite a few changes in grade on my property .

We've had ours for over 30 years now. Still use it a lot and like it.
