Opinions for Wheel Barrow Handles

Sonny · 2019-04-17T10:34:41+00:00

Have two 5-6 cu ft wheel barrows, each with a broken handle. I don't have appropriate hickory, but do have several 5" X 5" X 10' rough cut ash. Would ash be reasonably strong/durable for making handles? I'm suspecting so, since ash is used for baseball bats. It's been a long while since I've looked at the ash, but I suppose there is some straight grained stuff among the 5Xs. Thanks. Sonny

I did miss it. Probably answering the phone or something.
