Panel 1
In a workshop an oom in a cap and overalls holds up a ball of steel wool. Rassie looks at it evenly.
Oom: Wat gaan jy nou daarmee maak?
Panel 2
Rassie holds the steel wool up between finger and thumb.
Rassie: Gee my vyf minute.
Panel 3
In safety glasses and gloves Rassie works with an angle grinder and a hammer, sparks flying. The oom watches, alarmed.
Oom: Rassie...?
Panel 4
The oom lifts a corner of the tarpaulin and covers his mouth. A bakkie stands underneath.
Oom: Nee man...
Panel 5
The cover is off. A Hilux made of woven steel wool stands in the workshop doorway while Rassie wipes his hands.
Panel 6
The oom, still holding a little steel wool, looks at the bakkie. Rassie leans on the bonnet.
Oom: En die res?
Rassie: Spaarwiel.
