Rolling Again on New Wood Spreader Wheels! | Engels Coach Shop

Even though Dave is tired of wheels, he still gets 'round to it. (20:48 never too old to drink from the hose!)

Great Video to finish the week with! It was either the Olympics or Engles Coach Shop - I choose the Coach Shop!

The sign.of a true craftsman, is Dave telling us the small wheels are a bugger to make and then proceeds to make it look easy. Well done, sir. Well done.

watching you build wheels from scratch is almost hypnotic. completely enjoy your videos. thanks.

The smaller front wheels: because that is the size they need to be. Sometimes I don't think we give our Forefathers enough credit for being the smart resourceful folks they were. Great job on the manure spreader Sir. I will never get tired of watching you build wheels and mount the tires on them.

Seeing the spreader on its wheels and now a piece of rolling stock is quite a treat. You are an artist.

Dave, love how you "back-hook" your spoke tool with your foot when you set the first spokes. The human body is the most versatile tool of all.

I think this one is one of the best little projects you have done in a long time....

20:46 Thirsty work! Gave me a giggle. :D Glad to see the reason for the tiny wheels.

Been watching you for years. I am a woodworker as well. I always enjoy your content and have learned a lot over the years. Thank you for sharing your talent with me.

Once again I have realized a deeper appreciation of the use of c-clamps. I understand the mind numbing nature of constantly building wheels is to you, but truly, I can speak for the masses watching you is always educational. Thank you.

It is a joy and a privilege to watch you work,thank you.

It was cool to see the belt tension changing on the band saw when it was loaded and unloaded!

Never fails to amaze me, how you take a pile of rotted, sun-grey wood and rusty iron and turn it into a brand new 19th century wagon as good as the day it first rolled out of the workshop. You're the very definition of the American master craftsman!!

8:53 thanks for showing this leg trick on the persuader. I'm just 110 pounds and this is something I can do. My dad told me, when I first started to drive, if I ever had to change my own tire on the side of the road, to stand on the tire iron to loosen the lug nut. Thankfully someone always was there to help me, so I've never had to do it myself, but watching you today, reminded me that there's probably a lot of things like this that I can do with my legs instead of arms where I don't have as much strength. Thanks Dad! 💖🌞

Tip for you, Mr. Dave. Get yourself a hockey puck to use on your floor jacks. They are usually small enough to fit inside the jack bracket/cup, but can easily be sanded down to fit. They provide a good, non-slip, cushion and don't mar the surface of the thing you're jacking up. You can also cut a groves in them to accommodate round surfaces (axles, etc.).

One man performing every task then on to final assembly. This is what the guilds were designed to produce. This is the way.

I've watched you set tires so many times and still find it fascinating to watch and how you have the calculations so well done to even make it look that easy when i know its a lot harder than it looks .. It truly is an art form. and you drank from the hose....That made my day!

Watching Dave applying his special skills and tools reminds me that we have been making animal drawn vehicles, addressing very different needs, and from different local materials available to us, for a considerably longer period than we have been making engine powered vehicles. Thank you Dave

I love it, it just grows. Your not kidding. its a constant battle for free space to work.
