My parents had a garage sale..and I bought this wheel. It rested for several weeks near my garage waiting for a really good spot in the yard.
Finally the perfect spot was found. ![]()
Not much grass grows way out there anyway..it won’t have to be trimmed around very often.
It might have been from a rake.
I admired this one at a friends.
I don’t know what kind of machine would have this wheel..but I like it.
I have old wheels here and there in the yard..I like the looks of them..old, worn and resting. A little rusty but who cares..a little rust just gives them character. Wheels are wonderful pieces of art!
I suppose someone will line them all up someday at a garage sale or an estate auction..I wonder how long the line of old wheels will be?
The first photo looks like a wagon wheel from the time period near the end of steel wheels. The wheel with lugs appears to be a tractor wheel from the middle ages of steel tractor wheels (probably late 20′s or early 30′). The early steel wheels appeared to have a bar bolted across the rim while the later ones had staggered lugs.
