Default Wheel-barrow
Well the tyre on my 24 year old wheel-barrow finally gave out. So I figure, a new tyre and tube, and as Jackie Gleeson once said "away we go". I look at prices, and come up with $26.00 for a tyre and $17.95 for a tube for a total of $43.95. Anyway I kept looking, and was able to buy a whole new wheel, tyre and tube for $34.95 inc postage. So as much as you try to not make waste a saving of $9.00 cannot be over-looked. Now my 24 year old wheel-barrow looks almost brand new.

Maybe you got lucky and discovered the new wheel was made in Oz, instead of China.

Roland , the only thing in Australia that is not made in China are the "potholes"
I have put forward a suggestion to the Government that we "privatize' them that way we can reduce our National debt

Sounds like the Gov't of Oz, is like the Gov't of the USA. The citizens concerns fall on deaf ears.

In these here United States of America, the Governors of the northern states blame potholes on severe winter weather.
The southern state governors blame potholes on Vladimir Putin or Donald Trump.

What do the Australian powers that be blame potholes on?

Well Ironman old mate pretty much everything in Australia right now such as the price of fuel , vegetables , meat , clothing , electricity , shortage of assorted products , dairy products and groceries in general are being blamed on the war in Ukraine
We are half a world away but between the war and supposed climate change I do not think we will make it to Christmas
Cancel culture , greenies and nay sayers plus we now have a group called blockade who glue themselves to roads , block train lines and cause all kinds of disruptive mayhem in the name of improving the planet
As for the potholes I think it is the hydro-dynamics of the tyre pushing water into the tarmac that creates potholes but I may be wrong
Are potholes a Constitutional right in the USA

An amendment proposal is likely under consideration by the politically correct radicals.

They claim the term "pothole" is offensive to legitimate cannabis growers in the sense that it is a term used for a gardening technique
and should not be confused with something that can cause harm, accidents, or possibly destroy lives.

Forgot to mention this new wheel came with sealed for life bearings and of course once I popped the seals there was no grease
Greased them up and now the will last a life time
Always good advice to pop seals on these supposed sealed for life bearings and add a little bit of grease

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
