My 3 year old son has been starting to pay attention when I watch your videos. At the end of this video he looks at me as serious as he can and said wow daddy he's doing a good job.
Those wheels are beautiful. I am blown away each time I watch you take raw material and turn it into works of art. The amount of thinking and planning that you do is mind boggling.
I'm from the UK and have nothing to do with coach building I'm a mechanic but I have and will continue watching your video amazing craftsmanship from you and your team fantastic .
I wonder if there is a wagon wheel type in existence that you've never made. These jobs you're taking are colossal and I don't know how you do it but love going on the trip.
Once that steel tire is shrunk on that perfectly manufactured wheel that thing is going to be nearly indestructible for God only knows how many years. Just amazing.
I spent a good deal of time searching the Internet for another wainwright. There is one in the U.K., and none other in the USA. But saying there is but one Dave Engels is still an understatement.
You make it look easy Mr Engels. 21'.14" of enjoyment for us viewers must take a sizeable chunk of your time, just for the video.Thank you for your efforts.They are much appreciated.Greetings from Ireland.
Some people "jog", you "jig"...., I like how you make use of jigs like on the drillpress, much faster than keep on adjusting height. I never saw a boring video from you.
Only 71 more to do! What an attitude! I always feel (spiritually) closer to my great-grand-dad, who was a wheelwright., when I watch your videos. And e music was perfect.
My brother and I watch your videos and then discuss your mastery of the craft. He's 82 and I'm 75, our Dad was taught blacksmithing in Wise County Texas in the 20"s. He shod mules for the army in Ft. Sill Ok. My brother has done some smithing, but getting a little too old now. We sure enjoy watching you work sir.
Thanks Dave.from far of mass production and robot lifetime it is going more speedy to don't know where it is going.u put the harmony to perfect time to make us more information and comfort and happy after the world becomes more dis comfortable for the brain.
You SIR are a master craftsman. I could honestly watch you work all day. You really need a apprentice though. Those secrets you have need to be shared. Thanks for sharing.
Watching this process I am beginning to understand that, despite the seemingly advanced technology we have now, the technology used to create these wheels is no less ingenious. Somebody had to work out these processes from scratch.
That little wheel he uses to measure the circumference was used by the Egyptians to measure the foundation for the pyramids. There was this mystical question as to why the base of the pyramids were multiples of pi. Then someone pointed out you get then when you use wheels to measure equal distances. We were smart people back then. Kinda like we are today, but just with different technology. I absolutely enjoy figuring out how the smart folks way back when figured out how to accomplish the same tasks we do today. Imagine building Notre Dame with foot powered cranes and keeping in mind the wind shear over its roof. We had to use finite element analysis in very fast computers to figure out why they put those flying buttresses there. They did it on paper and pencil.
I never get tired of watching your videos primarily due to your craftsmanship. Although you make it look easy your skills I'm sure have been crafted over many years. Its also nice to see how you do your math calculations, no computers here... Nice nice work!!! Peter
Love to watch you work. This kind of woodworking is all new to me. The finished product is great, but I couldn't take the tedium. Loved my time in the shop. Loved challenges and difficult projects, as long as it wasn't tedious. Wheels are the most tedious.
Doing any kind of presise work such as yours requires excellent math skills , with a excellent work and mechanical apptitude and work ethics , excellent job as always .
Great job making and looking wheels I think I would have broken about half of them lol Thanks for sharing I'm really enjoying watching the process of making these wheels!!!!! Enjoyed the video and I gave it a thumbs up as well
That is a hefty wheel. Very nice job Mr.Engel. You are very talented. Enjoyed the video. Thank you for the time it takes to make them. Take care and God bless.
YOU KNOW I AM ALWAYS AMAZED AT THE SKILL SET AND THE CRAFTSMANSHIP OF EACH PIECE MADE..HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH NOW ? GOD BLESS AND STAY WARM AS WINTER IS APPROACHING ..
Just a thought, perhaps you could make a simple bedal type lifte for the bottom of the spoke to make the 4.5" tenonn. Something like a drywall lifter which might work too. Love your work!
The amount of knowledge contained in a baseball cap is immense . Please tell me where I can purchase one pre filled . My dunce cap is wearing thin.. so is the wife's patience with the honey doos thank you sir .
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills. I hope there is a young apprentice by your side to take this knowledge long into the future. Great videos, love to watch the process and hear your explanations.
I could feel myself get a bit tense while you were pulling those spokes together, snapping one of those would mean a fair amount of rework and time. Different types of wood have their own elasticity properties, great job Mr Engel.
I love the music behind the fine tuning of the wheel at mark 18:00 - 21:00. It's a twist in the Key of E that I do myself :) I've been playing it back and forth working on adding some to my repertoire :) Hehehehe lol (but i'm not that good) :)
Regardless of the next episode's changes, i think they came out amazing. I may not be much a woodworker, but i know from the times i've tried, that wood is picky in certain directions. Does what it want in others. :)
As always, I love your videos. I don't know how often you need to cut long tenons, but if it's at all frequent, may I make a suggestion? Make some sort of fixed, fold down, block that transfers your mark on the floor to a higher level. 1 1/2" would probably be enough to make the second half of the cut by moving the whole wheel up, instead of moving the cutter down in the drill chuck. Just a thought.
3 years later, I am watching this video again. Always excellent work. Thank you again. JIm
Watching your videos is like a half-hour vacation.
To make such a perfect wheel, its requirements are planning, knowledge, experience, and outstanding skills , and on top of that: patience. Thanks
I might jinx this. But 798 likes and 0 dislikes. That's unheard of. You're a true craftsman.
My 3 year old son has been starting to pay attention when I watch your videos. At the end of this video he looks at me as serious as he can and said wow daddy he's doing a good job.
I know it's mundane, daily grind to you Dave , but to me you're an artist , that wheel is a thing of. Beauty . 👍🇬🇧

Keeping old American technology alive. Don't know how many more like him are still out there.
Excellent craftsmanship as always. When the 6 arcs each came together and fit perfectly I got the biggest grin on my face.

I could sit and watch this all day. Thanks for taking time and effort to produce the videos, they're enjoyable to watch! ....13
I have. Twice.
I'm retired and have medical problems so I do sit an watch for hours cause I'm trying to catch up on the videos. I just found him a month ago.
@@genegoodman5233 ...Hope you are well as could be.
I've been watching this series, in a hodgepodge system, and Oh my goodness, the labor involved.

Lovely to see a craftsman at work. Very relaxing to watch.
You are an inspiration to a lot of us out here, not to mention the great entertainment. Thank you so much and please keep it up. You're the best!!!

I think I’ve seen this 6+ times and it never gets old. Thank you.
My word you make it look so easy.
Your skill is next level. I stand in amazement.
I'm a committed Engel's Coach Shop junky. I wish you sold hats!
You SIR are a master craftsman. I could honestly watch you work all day. You really need a apprentice though. Those secrets you have need to be shared. Thanks for sharing.
Yes the same thoughts crossed my mind.
well hes sharing them with hundrets of thousands

Egyptians: papyrus and charcoal ink.
@@talltimberswoodshop7552 They had the lotus and beer. Oh, and onions too. But when it came to that wheel, they had o-pi-nions too.
@Santina Murphy *too
I could watch this all day. Oh wait, I just did. I am in awe.
Experience is a necessary tool, Solving problems on the fly is also very Important too

Its also nice to see how you do your math calculations, no computers here... Nice nice work!!!

You are such a craftsman, I could watch your videos over and over ...
Cutting tenons so accurately, using pencil sharpener. Very ingenious. Thanks

If I had to make a living doing what you do I would be a LOT skinnier !! Thanks for sharing your craftsmanship......Jay
Dave: That's a pretty cool wheel, with the offset. The math that goes into it is mind boggling, at least for we mere mortals.
Great job making and looking wheels I think I would have broken about half of them lol Thanks for sharing I'm really enjoying watching the process of making these wheels!!!!!
Enjoyed the video and I gave it a thumbs up as well
Time for relaxation,smooth voice.
That is a hefty wheel. Very nice job Mr.Engel. You are very talented. Enjoyed the video. Thank you for the time it takes to make them. Take care and God bless.
Having seen your ‘inventions’...I’m surprised you have not made a machine to do improve this process...you are Sir, remarkable...
I never tire watching these interesting videos.
Fudge Factor, Saw cuts. Thanks for Splain'n. Thanks for Show'n. Great eye candy.
This is such a nice channel to watch. Take me back to the discovery channel when it had good things like this on it
Another delightful video! I just can’t get enough of your craftsmanship. You always mange to show me something along the way
It's amazing how much work it takes to make only one wheel...let alone twelve! Mr. Engel, how many weeks did this job take in real time?
Oh GaWd I miss working with wood! Winter in that shop is my dream! Coffee's on!
@@EngelsCoachShop I'm ON my way buddy... Seriously though I'd be in a heart beat..
My Friday evening relax and unwind time is spent watching your amazing abilities and knowledge. Thank you sir.
Mr. Engels for President!
Dave is probably too nice for politics.
Very interesting. Great to see how things were done in our earlier history and how you keep it going today.
YOU KNOW I AM ALWAYS AMAZED AT THE SKILL SET AND THE CRAFTSMANSHIP OF EACH PIECE MADE..HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH NOW ?
GOD BLESS AND STAY WARM AS WINTER IS APPROACHING ..
Great content and very well edited thanks for sharing
The math skills required are so interesting to me. I enjoy math, and I enjoy you explaining the process.
Remarkable, knowledge and craftsmanship. 2 almost forgotten things today! Thanks for sharing yours.
I love your intro vision.
Wow! Your exactness is amazing. An order of 12 is huge. Thanks for showing the processs.
I look forward to your video every week. Thanks for sharing.
This guy has to be some kind of genius
Just a thought, perhaps you could make a simple bedal type lifte for the bottom of the spoke to make the 4.5" tenonn. Something like a drywall lifter which might work too. Love your work!
Master craftsman at work..thumbs up buddy....
Thank you sir, you brightened a dreary Friday
Absolute genius! I can’t get enough of these videos

NICE JOB MY FRIEND... I LOVE THIS JOB... Thanks for Share... Saludos from El Salvador,C.A.
Complex stuff. Nice work.
Thank you for sharing some of your knowledge and skills amassed over your lifetime.
The amount of knowledge contained in a baseball cap is immense . Please tell me where I can purchase one pre filled . My dunce cap is wearing thin.. so is the wife's patience with the honey doos thank you sir .
It looks like the mahogany has no problem filling up a sanding belt.. :-( Really heavy duty looking running gear! Thanks, Mr. Dave!
Thank you for you and your amazing craft,skills and knowledge sir.
Nice going, that's some tough work. Good luck, sir!
Thank you ECS. Every time i watch a video i learn something new.
Your ingenuity is truly amazing!... I love these videos!
As always it's nice to watch you
I am so impressed. So precise. I hope you have apprentices to carry on this great woodworking.
You're a master wheel right great work.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills. I hope there is a young apprentice by your side to take this knowledge long into the future. Great videos, love to watch the process and hear your explanations.

thanks again. never gets old.
NIce job as always Dave. Thanks so much.
Excellent, as always!!!!!!!!
Amazing! that's all I can say! Thanks for sharing your many talents.
Absolutely beautiful work
That sure is a nice saw your using as a workbench
Mr. Dave, é muita dedicação, competência, e trabalho já LAIKEI
I love the music behind the fine tuning of the wheel at mark 18:00 - 21:00. It's a twist in the Key of E that I do myself :) I've been playing it back and forth working on adding some to my repertoire :) Hehehehe lol (but i'm not that good) :)

@@EngelsCoachShop that personality is what makes working wood such a pleasure. Even when that personality is in opposition to what you want it to do.
You Sir are a MASTER.
Amazing work.
AMAZING! Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Always very interesting!!!!
Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 10 Jan 22.
As always, I love your videos. I don't know how often you need to cut long tenons, but if it's at all frequent, may I make a suggestion? Make some sort of fixed, fold down, block that transfers your mark on the floor to a higher level. 1 1/2" would probably be enough to make the second half of the cut by moving the whole wheel up, instead of moving the cutter down in the drill chuck.
Just a thought.
Absolutely brilliant !
Irealy enjoy your videos.
Thanks Dave.
