Not that long ago I bought a smaller wheelbarrow to replace the old heavy one with the blown out tire. Ok maybe it was 5 years but it did not have oak handles maybe they were pine or some white wood. Anyway one handle broke in two places. Now while I was looking at how to replace the handles I came on and idea that the old handles were too short for tall people. So I added 8 inches to the new ones. Have some 4x4 treated from a playhouse I tore down when we moved in here. I cut them down to close to 2x2 which is at least half again bigger than the old handles. First handle off and shaping the new one with a draw knife. First handle installed and second ready to install. Note I did paint silver.Just happened to be the most abundant color I have, Now you can see the extra length and overall size comparison with the old handle. I just hope they don't rot and the life of this one nears the 30 plus of the old one.
