So-so wovel

I'm somewhat disappointed in the Wovel, a wheeled snow shovel I've been using. It works well until it doesn't. Dig it into hard snow, let alone ice, and the axle will start coming out of the frame, into which it's held by finger screws that only someone with hands like Dr. No could get tight enough. So it's a good idea, but not very well implemented; I hope a better version is on the way.
