Wooden Wheel Barrow

My Wife wanted a wooden wheel barrow for a decoration. Building the wheel was a challenge but came out pretty good I think. She liked the bare wood for the wheel so I sealed it and left it bare.
I'm really bad about making something but never taking pictures. I apologize for not having more detail about the wheel but maybe you can see how I did some of it at least. It was made out of scrap 2x4's (that's why so many holes) in two halves with the spoke holes drilled out before glue-up. I clamped the section halves together, drilled the holes at the joint (1/2 spoke hole in each section), assembled the center assembly then glued each "half wheel" together with the spokes. Not very clear but maybe you can get the idea.
That is an interesting project and came out really good.   Should be more than just a show piece.

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Nice job - especially the wheel!
