I give an old rotary hoe wheel from the past a much needed facelift and put it back to work as yard art. My daughter Briley helped me a ton on this one!
You need to get a proper respirator for when you are grinding and wire-wheeling stuff. You don't want to be breathing any of the abrasive dust (from disks), paint, etc. That mask you were using is not an adequate respirator - you need one that seals against your face, preferably a P100 if you get in to spraying any paint. Also note that just because a respirator is a respirator doesn't mean it is going to seal properly and do its job. You need to make sure the respirator seals well = fit is important. Good job on the art project, otherwise. That is neat taking old, useless stuff and turning it in to something cool and appreciated.
That’s awesome! Now I want to find something to put in my yard!
I'll keep an eye out for ya!
Looks good Bri! Nice work!
Thanks Jared! And thanks for letting me know what they are called. I'll put it in the description.

Thanks! Yeah I definitely suck in too much dust. A good respirator is in the plans.
New sub! Liked 🙏👍🚀
Amen! Thanks so much! I do a variety of restorations. Getting ready to restore a very large church bell!
