I have wrenching to do...things are broken.

Bad bolt, nice gouge and worn out rod end.

Wobbly wheel. Fun fact: the rim is filled with cement to act as as a counterweight.

Either the wheel bearings are loose or they are worn out. The front wheel on the tractor is wobbly and, due to the incorrect fitment of a bolt, the tyre is being gouged. And since I have to take the wheel off, I might as well do the rod ends whilst I’m there...

And then there’s the return spring on the front hub of the Drum Brake Bike. It’s not returning...

I somehow have to make it come back. That could be fiddly...

Cold start video?  In three months when it is cold (to the extent it gets cold there)?

I will accept some blame for the drum brake but the backwards bolt is all on my uncle. Especially since he said that the cement filled wheels are 'fucking heavy'.
