Kids' Wheelbarrow Handle Repair

I forgot to take a "before" photo!

So-- "before" -- the handle was broken in two pieces.  We had tried wood glue- to no avail. Twice.

This worked on our second try (on the first one, the wood split- it was too thick).

On this try, we screwed paint mixing sticks on both sides of the broken piece as a mending plate of sorts...
(here is a real mending plate example...)

and now it works! We don't have to buy a new wheelbarrow! Whew!
