Ive stood under an 18000lb boring mill table dangling from a chunk of chain to hand wipe it with a rag before putting it back together. I just got a solid handle on 2" black pipe yield strength. Learnt it for the gubner banded the math books
*- I LOVED IT, Dave ! ! ! "You might want ta skip this one because this one is probably even worse."* *- Good gosh I LOVE IT ! ! ! ... Tell people to go stuff it in a not so oblique by civilized way.*
The more I watch you the more I am reminded of my former boss/mentor/all around great guy who taught me how to be a craftsman and care about the quality of my work. He was from Missoula, MT and lived and worked in and around my hometown in the south coast of MA. Lucky me, love your stuff, amazed at the plethora of talents that you possess, thanks for sharing and saving a dying art!!
IT IS GOOD THAT YOUR WIFE IS A NURSE. IF ONE OF THE STEEL TIRES WAS TO FALL, THE OTHERS WOULD FALL LIKE DOMINOS. YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY. MY BLOOD PRESSURE WENT UP JUST WATCHING YOU.
Thank you for making my Friday, and it is always a pleasure to watch. It is too bad there isn't a port-a-band with a large enough throat to cut those tires. Have a great weekend.
As someone who grew up staring at the picture of the wagon train on the Boraxo soap that my dad almost exclusively used, and now drive past the mine on a regular basis, it's nice seeing you work on these, and I am happy that they were smart enough to pick you to repair them!
Great to see you disassemble the tires without a mishap...you are cautious but not overly..I always say No one ever wrote any books about people playing it safe ,,sometimes they do write an obit though about going beyond your own means...cheers and Thanks again for an enjoyable day visiting your shop.
You again show us that you know what you are doing, how to do it and get the job done safely. I am a bit surprised at the failure of the diamond blade to perform but glad you were able to go back to a tried and true method. Looking forward to your next video.
fantastic video i'm so pleased you changed back to normal abrasive blade , in my long years as a general engineer and blacksmith I have seen all types of so called time saving attachments and mostly the old ways are the best keep going my friend love your work :)
I’ve been wondering for over a week how you were going to dislodge the tires. It never occurred to me that you would cut them. D’uh! It’s obvious now I’ve seen the expert . Once again: love your work, Dave. Thanks.
Access the risk you're comfortable with , manage the risk through experience , execute. Well done Dave. You're pretty good with 2 handed winch control! Nylon webbing tires........Fancy!
This ain't your first rodeo, you're doing an excellent job of taking care of the wheels and the guy working on them. Thanks Dave for all the great work and ideas you give folks to learn to handle tough situations. May the force always be there with you. Stay safe, Fred.
Dave great watching you disassemble these giant wheels. I was nervous with all that grinding you did without a face shield or safety glasses. Glad you got through it with no grindings in the eye.
I love the "dueling cable hoists"! Never would have thought of that but it certainly worked well. Thanks for so willingly sharing your immense body of skill and knowledge with us Dave. Can't wait for next week's installment.
NO DOUBT, you sir are very experienced and skilled in your use of your winch assembly. I hope you understand my concern as it would be awful to find you down from the very heavy items with which you have to work with and around. Always love the fact you do such great work with things that NOT MANY people have the knowledge and skills that you still have to share with us and we enjoy the journey and finished products that you have worked so hard to repair or rebuild. Best wishes and prayers to keep you healthy and safe, Love your work and dedication.
Great 👍 video, the wheels without the tires you handled Great, I liked the double hand winch control,and the wheel was,strapped and stayed perfectly stable without swinging around, real world reviews on cutter blades
great job. Handling big equipment is always difficult and dangerous . I am looking forward to your next videos. I sure wish I could work like you. I am 90 and and have had to slow down. keep on making the videos for I sure enjoy them.
I have so much fun watching you operate the hoists with a controller in each hand. Love the sound effects too. Looks like your shoulder is behaving again.
I just realized how small your shop looks to be. I work in a machine shop that is approx. 6 times the size to 10 times the size seen in your videos. Granted, the part of the shop I normally work within is about the same approx. size seen for the inspection department(something approx. 40 to 50 feet wide by 160 to 200 feet long). I am amazed by how much work you can get accomplished with such a small workshop. Goes to show how a well laid out shop can make a world of difference, wouldn't you say?
Dave is a great wheelwright, undoubtedly the best. As a Winch Wizzard, one for each hand I was surprised by how proficient he became as he wielded the wheels. Way to go Dave!
I watched last week and saw nothing wrong with your lifting prosedure and same for this week,you had it under control, thanks for another outstanding video🤗😎🤗😎
I'm glad to see those dual winches working out well for you. When I was running a metal shop, we used to flip large mild-steel hoppers the same way. Just takes a bit of care, and a lot of common sense. The hoppers weighed 4 tons each. Keep up the good work👍
Nothing like adding a little bit of excitement to your day and living a little dangerously to keep the adrenalin flowing thank you! again Dave for another great video.
I have two overhead electric winches in my home workshop like the ones you are using in this video. Definitely the best tool in the shop. Cheers from Tasmania.
I admire this work because, from my point of view, the wheels are huge, very heavy and ultimately worked by only one person. Great, clever work. Respect for it. Best regards Raik
@@mrfarts5176 Mr. Fart, you will hardly be able to influence my opinion of the work through the clothing. There may be a stigma for it in the States, but I look at people based on their performance, not whether they're wearing designer work clothes. Go to the bathroom, fart yourself out, have another drink, go to bed, and then we'll talk again tomorrow when you're sober.
@@raikbusse7697 I am just sad that this man has the potential to be an example for future generations. His work ethic forever enshrined on TH-cam. His specialized knowledge retained as part our American history. Instead... instead... he puts on Jean pants... then a Jean shirt every day. I honestly and just shocked that anyone would alow themselves to be photographed in this state... I hope his family sees these videos and get him back together. His shattered pieces returned to a coherent whole.
I agree with John Adams, Cubitron products are first class, never had any success with diamond cutting discs except when using them on concrete etc. Still lookin to every video you produce. Thanks for sharing.
You need a Skil SPT78MMC with the Cermet blade. It would make that cut from the top down in less than a minute. You would find it immensely handy for other things around the shop as well.
Come to think of it, I would probably just hold the wheel vertically with a strap at 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock and cut across the top with the saw flat. There seems to be almost no spring open so pretty safe.
Love theses quick and easy builds. Though only a newbie I replicated the build, started at lunch, finished by dinner. In the clients hands next day. Love the simplicity of the build
Irritating if people are making disparaging comments about your methods. I see a man that does 98% of his work alone. I know that mode of operation and you figure out means to handle heavy objects. I think your work is excellent and look forward to all your videos.
The only carbide tipped blade that works is the Diabolo and they are best used in a cut off ( chop saw } saw!!!!! Keep up the great work and keep your sences of humor!!!

It’s 12 o’clock. And I’m here for the dual hands hoist dueling
Thanks for the heads up at the beginning! I put on my hard hat and steel toed shoes to watch.
Thanks for making me a 8yold again looking at the work of a cartwright.
Now that was impressive. Wow
If last week made you nervous, you might not want to watch this week. HA HA HA. Spoken like a man who gets things done.
I ain’t skippin nothin! 😆
Love how you dealt with the safety nannies. Keep doing what you are doing!
Yep, I also chuckled with "you might want to skip this one because it gets even worse".

@@BrianEltherington Yep, same here!
Indeed, it’s a priceless, precious, free commodity, just learning from knowledgeable, well experienced, top professional.
*- I LOVED IT, Dave ! ! ! "You might want ta skip this one because this one is probably even worse."*

Those winches are worth more than diamonds!

It is a privilege to be allowed to "tune in" to your working; truly amazing gift from God. Blessing to you and Mrs. Engels.
The casual competence you display when addressing and dispatching difficult and complex tasks, impresses me greatly.
Any jobber worth his salt. Men at work. Being told they make it look easy is a compliment.
That "casual competence" is a sure sign of experience. The task may be new, but the methods are tried and true.
IT IS GOOD THAT YOUR WIFE IS A NURSE. IF ONE OF THE STEEL TIRES WAS TO FALL, THE OTHERS WOULD FALL LIKE DOMINOS. YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY. MY BLOOD PRESSURE WENT UP JUST WATCHING YOU.
I dont know about fellow bound, ive been watching the borax wagon from day 1 and im still spell bound! Great vid again Dave 👍👍👍
Thank you for making my Friday, and it is always a pleasure to watch. It is too bad there isn't a port-a-band with a large enough throat to cut those tires. Have a great weekend.

It just never ends. Your ability to accomplish so much work by yourself is amazing.
Thank you for videoing yourself.
Would never skip a chance to enjoy your ingenuity.
Love the hacksaw blade depth guage! Always picking up tips, thanks brother! Blessings from Jerusalem. ב"הש
That's some mighty big wheels Thanks young man.....Shoe🇺🇸
I really want to thank you for recording the building of the Borax wagons and now this wonderful set of videos about adjusting the wheels.
Thanks for explaining the purpose of the circumferential straps.
Great to see you disassemble the tires without a mishap...you are cautious but not overly..I always say No one ever wrote any books about people playing it safe ,,sometimes they do write an obit though about going beyond your own means...cheers and Thanks again for an enjoyable day visiting your shop.

Impressive! You did a fine job, single handedly, dismantling the tires from the wheels. Best wishes to you.
Thanks Dave
I love watching.
fantastic video i'm so pleased you changed back to normal abrasive blade , in my long years as a general engineer and blacksmith I have seen all types of so called time saving attachments and mostly the old ways are the best keep going my friend love your work :)
Yep. I knew right off that diamond blade was no good on steel.
I’ve been wondering for over a week how you were going to dislodge the tires. It never occurred to me that you would cut them. D’uh! It’s obvious now I’ve seen the expert . Once again: love your work, Dave. Thanks.
You make a complex task look so easy. love watching
Well done Dave have a great day love ❤ from TEXAS
Those wheels are real works of art.
Access the risk you're comfortable with , manage the risk through experience , execute. Well done Dave. You're pretty good with 2 handed winch control! Nylon webbing tires........Fancy!
cycling--Yeah! He looked like he was conducting an orchestra there! lol
I especially liked how he caught the control when it swung back to him!
This ain't your first rodeo, you're doing an excellent job of taking care of the wheels and the guy working on them. Thanks Dave for all the great work and ideas you give folks to learn to handle tough situations. May the force always be there with you. Stay safe, Fred.
it was impressive to see the hub deflection in the rear wheel when you put it on the stand. It speaks to how loose the wheels really are
Well spotted- I missed that first time around 11:20
Borax wagons, what a special build, for you, to be part of.
I don't know why people were nervous, you handeled those tires like the pro you are. Well done.
Impressed with your cut off wheel technique. Very cool ! Thanks
Dave great watching you disassemble these giant wheels.
I was nervous with all that grinding you did without a face shield or safety glasses.
Glad you got through it with no grindings in the eye.
GREAT JOB, GREAT VIDEO, TELL ALL HELLO...
Dave, you did not make me nervous. It was obvious you understood what you were doing and the risk of carelessness.
Your videos are never nerve wracking they are always entertaining or educational!
10:12 Those wheels are massive 😮 , great video sir ... Its a pleasure to watch what you do 👌👌 Great channel
0:14 "...this one's probably even worse." Haaaaa love it!
Well done! Once you got used to the dual handed operation it went very well.
really nice to watch an expert.
I love the "dueling cable hoists"! Never would have thought of that but it certainly worked well. Thanks for so willingly sharing your immense body of skill and knowledge with us Dave. Can't wait for next week's installment.
They are big wheels Dave can’t wait for your next video take care 👏👍
Mr. Engel is the hoist master! 😄
Now that's a job and a half . It's a good job all your wagon wheels are not that big 😯.I remember back when you first did them 👍👍👍
watching you operate those winches, one would think you have done that before, stay safe.
NO DOUBT, you sir are very experienced and skilled in your use of your winch assembly. I hope you understand my concern as it would be awful to find you down from the very heavy items with which you have to work with and around.

As usual. Excellent job. Thank you Dave
Its like watching a superbly choreographed ballet....
Those hoists are priceless for lifting stuff for sure.
Very delicate job, no mistakes allowed...
Nicely done with much finesse 👍 those 80” babies are quite the monsters! Impressive maneuvering!!
Nice to see this. It was enjoyable again. Seen on 4/30/22 at 4:22 pm
You are so accomplished. It takes me awhile to real8ze what all you get done. Amazing.
will be looking forward to next week!!!
So impressed. I'm speechless. Whoo!

He plays alot of pinball-
You are awesome. I learn so much watching your videos. thank you
I watched last week and saw nothing wrong with your lifting prosedure and same for this week,you had it under control, thanks for another outstanding video🤗😎🤗😎
It wasn't the procedure it was the lifting frame material and it's design. People were simply concerned for his saftey.
I'm glad to see those dual winches working out well for you. When I was running a metal shop, we used to flip large mild-steel hoppers the same way. Just takes a bit of care, and a lot of common sense. The hoppers weighed 4 tons each. Keep up the good work👍

‘You’re a better man than I am, Gunga Din!’
Whew! You did a really good job of making me hold my breath. Yikes, that looks dangerous. So glad you are so careful.
Happy Friday
I have two overhead electric winches in my home workshop like the ones you are using in this video. Definitely the best tool in the shop. Cheers from Tasmania.
at 11:28 watch how the hub drops when he picks up the rim. That show how loose the wheel is!
Thank you for the time stamp.
Thank you for the diamond wheel review, I've also noticed them and wondered how they'd work.
I admire this work because, from my point of view, the wheels are huge, very heavy and ultimately worked by only one person. Great, clever work.

It’s so amazing that the space a 3/4” chisel makes in the circumference just lets the tires slide right off.
Impressive work!
Hello from Moosomin ,Saskatchewan, Canada Great videos thanks for sharing.
Awesome work!
Terrific ! Getting pretty proficient with those hoists, bit like "Two Gun Tex" !
I bought a diamond wheel for my 4&1/2 grinder for cutting 1/2 inch rebar. It took over 5 minutes, when the regular grinder disk to about 30 seconds.
I agree with John Adams, Cubitron products are first class, never had any success with diamond cutting discs except when using them on concrete etc.
Still lookin to every video you produce.

Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 30 Apr 22.
Truly awesome. Thank you.
You're getting very proficient with the two winches. Great job
Not too scary since I already knew it went OK. Would have been a different story if I had been there. Thank you for sharing.
