  • 80 year old grandmother would like a 32" decorative wheel for her remodeled kitchen. Not being able to find an old wheel that was the right size, I built her a new wheel, to the size she needed, and made it look old.

    I don't know about anyone else but I enjoy watching Dave build new wheels. He truly is a master of his craft! Thank you for helping to preserve the past and those special memories all of us old people cherish.

      I do to...every time he mentioned he does not do that anymore I get a little sad... I understand but I just so enjoyed it.. If I ever need to make a wheel I know who I'll turn to to watch how it's done...no where else on the internet can be as good as Dave's

    I think I understand your feelings towards wheel building but I just want to echo what others have already said: There is ABSOLUTELY NO CHANCE that I would ever consider watching you build wheels to be redundant or even remotely undesirable! While I thoroughly enjoy watching you do just about anything requiring your level of craftsmanship and dedication to the trade, I'm especially captivated by both the science behind being a wheelwright and your personal application of the considerable knowledge and skills you carry around inside your brain. If I could only watch one TH-cam channel I have no doubt it would be this one. As always Dave: a sincere thank you for allowing us along on this wonderful journey of yours.

    This is a true testament to your work ethic! This a decorative wheel for a woman who, God willing, will enjoy it for 10 or 15 years, but you constructed like it was going on a wagon for real use (minus a shortened hub!). You, sir, are a National Treasure! Thank you for archiving your knowledge for the craftsmen yet to come!

    One of the best parts of your video's is all the unique tools and machines in your shop so you are able to do the work you do. When you stop making wheels and tires, all of those tools just sit there not being used. So it is great to see you remaking aquaintances with all of your old friends. I can't help but feel that they missed you.

    Don't worry about us being bored with you making another wheel. We all appreciate your craftsmanship so much it doesn't matter if we've seen it before. There isn't anything much better than watching someone at the top of their game doing what they do best. Obviously, if you become bored with it, stop, but don't think your viewers feel the same.

    For those that don't have a sandblaster, a wire brush wheel does the same job, taking out more of the soft grain and leaving the harder, giving the same weathered character. Many people do it this way to make "old barn wood" for picture frames, etc. Great job, Dave. It really looks nice...an old wheel that's been taken care of.

I have watched you make wheels not for the better part of few years now. (back to and just prior to the Borax wagons. and still am fascinated and enjoy the process. each wheel tho Identical in many ways for some reason to me has its own character and design elements. it never gets old to me. But then again. I'm 80 years old also so does not take much to keep me occupied. thanks for sharing. ECF

    The wheel work videos are my favorite videos to watch . I am suffering table saw envy. Fortunately, I don't have space for one like yours. My work area is filled with mostly warn out tools that I purchase new . I need to start moving them to new homes because of my advanced years, but every time I decide to start disposing of toolsand equipment, a project comes up, causing me to use the items I was about to liquidate. Just last week, I found myself purchasing replacement toolsfor some that no longer functioned to do a job I needed to get done. I no longer purchase the top quality, just good enough to get a job done. Lollol.
