Heh heh... True enough! But you know, my grandfather made a Wheel Barrow out of a metal barrel the he lopped in half. He would use it to spring clean the lawn. Ironic!

And about changing the strut length, I overlooked that shortening the strut and adding a larger wheel only brings the nose back to its original position (DUH!), as long as I only shorten the strut the difference in distance from the center of both wheels to the outer edges.
