Rejected #Wheelbarbie wheels.
No idea what the first one was. Probably a support wheel for some tractor attachment. It's got a crumbling low profile rubber tyre that has water sloshing around in it and the axle bearings are frozen.
The big one is a tractor front tyre with an ant colony. I didn't really want rubber wheels near a fire in case they would get hot (they do not).
Did you know that there's an #extinct #dog breed that made meat tasty?
Before modern ovens, meat was turned over an open fire to cook evenly.
In the 16th c., a dog breed was developed, named the turnspit, that would run in a #wheel hoisted high on a kitchen wall to do this job.
On Sundays, the turnspit served as a foot warmer in church. One anecdote states that the mere mention of a "wheel" in a sermon once, made the dogs run away in anguish...
#Queen Victoria kept some as pets.

Put the summer shoes on the Astra, despite the annoying rain.
Downsized from 19" summer wheels to 17" for more rubber, air, ride comfort and absorption on bad roads.
I'll never understand the idiotic desire to put wheels with more unflexing metal instead of nice air filled rubber on cars for "good looks".
Defeats the whole reason the pneumatic tyre was invented!

My #GNU #Linux Journey – Part 1: Discovering the Arch Way
When I first installed #ArchLinux, I quickly realized it wasn’t like other systems. Nothing came preinstalled. No GUI installer. No sudo. No editor. Just a prompt. And that was the best thing that could’ve happened.
Here’s what I actually learned:
That a Linux “installation” is often just a well-organized file extraction. No registry. No black box like in #Windows.
That #pacman is a powerful tool and #sudo doesn’t work until you configure it. I had to add my user to the #wheel group and use #visudo, a special editor to safely modify sudoers.
That my user password, not root’s, is used for sudo – which felt secure and efficient once I understood the logic.
I didn’t just get a system running – I learned what a system is.

Rim job!
One of the better garage finds from last winter was a set of four wheels that were probably from the old man's Golf II but also fit our Crossgolf (Golf V platform).
Banged out a few dents, cleaned them up (that's the hard and messy part), rust converter, paint, done.
These will be for the new winter tyres, as I prefer steel for winter.
While the rims look nice and shiny now, I on the other hand am in dire need of some cleanup!

Found some matching wheels. One even has an axle on it.
If I can get the bearings apart, I have another whole set. Could use that as rear axle for a log transport.
