Many of you are interested in the tire bolts and rivets I use in my videos. Since I use a large number of these, I do keep them in stock. An email to dave@engelscoachshop.com will get you a list of available sizes and pricing.

This series has been a joy to watch. Thank you so much for taking the time to take us along with you.
WOW! What a job! I watched the series in one sitting and I need a nap! You are a true craftsman. Watching your channel is both entertaining and educational. Thank you.
My great-grandfather was a coach-and wheel builder here in Copenhagen Denmark, in the late 1800 and early 1900. Now I can see what his work was all about. Thank you very much for great videos.
For those wondering about the cost of the wheels Mr Engels already gave a pretty good idea. 300 hrs of construction , 300x a shop rate of $65.00 hr= $20,000 plus materials of $20,000 +tax= about $46,000 FOB Joliet, MT . packing and shipping $10,000 totals about $60,000.00. I’m 68 so I might be a bit low but because I remember 5 cent candy bars but crank your own figures in if you desire.
He's a sub for the place in Palatka, Florida, and they provided the materials. So probably closer to about $1500 to $2000 per wheel would be my guess.
I dont know about anyone else but this has been a joy to watch you make these wheels. Your truly a craftsman at what you do even down to crating. Hope the next project is just as much fun and learning as this one was.
Just sat up watching all this till 2.15 in the morning, but enjoyed every bit of it. Cheers from South Australia.
Why would we expect that the crating of the finished work would be any less meticulous than the creation contained inside. Great stuff. Thanks.
Thanks for taking us along for the ride. The thing that impressed me the most is the craftsmanship, not only that you are able to do all the different steps, but also the experience to do all the steps in the right order and work efficiently.
Dad's favorite reply to how much was, more than you got in your pocket or make me an offer I can't refuse! If they retort with, it ain't worth that much, he'll just retort back with; "well that's what it's worth to me"! After they depart, he'll shake his head saying, them "Flatlander's" just don't know when shut up or when you're trying to be nice, but sometimes you just have to give them both barrels at once!
It a lot like watching someone build a "nested doll set", many layer are the end goal.
I have seen many craftsmen work during my life and I am really amazed seeing how you work.
You must be one of the best if not THE best one.
Be blessed.

Where I live we don't see them anymore.
People prefer to throw things away instead of repairing them and then they buy another one.
Thank you so much for sharing your skill with us. It so so very rare these days to have the opportunity to observe a true craftsman practicing their trade. You are a true national treasure. I sincerely hope that you are training the next generation of wheelwrights. The world will be a lesser place without your gifts.
300 hours?! I would've thought nearly double that. Proof positive that your methods and processes have been tuned to perfection over the years. Thank you again for another educational series!
thanks for having us
Your craftsmanship is an inspiration to watch. When I was a boy, it was still possible to watch carpenters build a house, plasterers finish a room, cabinet makers ply their trade and blacksmiths make magic with iron and steel. Your videos and the videos of some others give me the same thrill I felt as a boy. Thank you.
Holy Moly those wheels were packed and ready to go to Mars
You are proficient with so, so, so many tools/processes. Hats off to you.
Such a pleasure watching a craftsman at work, right down to the packaging. Well done, sir.
I don't have any more hats to take off, so I'll pretend if I was a teacher, you get full marks everytime before the exam. Thanks for showing the packaging, and the wheels looked beautifull, this is art, the forklift sounded refined and have a great christmas.
A good man ... doing a good job ... having a good life. God sure is proud of you, my friend. This is happiness! Many are envious of you! My sincere wishes from here in Brazil. God save America!
I would say if they watched how you work, then I'm sure they are more than satisfied with the priced paid. I hope this brings you more work. What you do is simply amazing. You must really enjoy the work you do, I know we do. Thanks again!
I wonder if they feel embarrassed as to how much they paid you, considering how much work you've put in. No matter how much they've paid.
I love watching all your videos! I started watching a while back because I came into what looks like a homemade cannon on an old front axle from a trailer. Ive wanted to make it look more like a mini Civil War era cannon and so i started watching :) watching you wrap those wheels in plastic makes me thank God I had an auto palitizer at the dock I worked at, bet you get dizzy!! Thanks for your content!!!!
I’m impressed! Your packing is as professional as your work! ! I love the Saran Wrap packing dance round the wheels. You just have to set that to music....it will be an assured hit. You are an all-round artist. A pleasure to watch your videos.
I'm almost sad to see them leave? I grew quite fond of those wheels. I kept thinking of little things that I could be doing there to assist you Dave, then I finally saw another person doing something that does help you. When you cut the axle tubes, my first thought was, " I could de-burr the ID for Dave"
Alas, you did that too....... Thank you, Jim
Amazing set of skills, not least of which is filmmaker!
Texas here, but my son Peter worked in Montana. He glanced over my shoulder as I watched your video and remarked, “I bought gas at that Conoco in Joliet!”
What a joy it has been to watch you work through this project! 15 years ago, as amateurs with zero wheelwrighting experience we built a pair of 56" wheels for our cannon project and it has been fascinating to see how close our 'made-up' techniques were to an experienced professional, though we lacked the tools and jigs. It brought it all back to me. My wife photographed the project and built this website to showcase the process - www.artillerysociety.co.uk/Hubs.html
Thank you for sharing :D
Absolute treat to be able to watch Dave build these wheels single-handed - up to the point where they were being shipped to the owners. Thanks again !!
Mr Engels you are a legend in your own lifetime. Thanks for the series. A lot of hard repetitive work for you but people will benefit from it for generations to come.
Incredible dedication to quality. It sure is nice to see a real craftsman with pride in his work.
great to see what great diversity there is on you tube. you do a bang up job
I can imagine the feeling of joy, and contentment, satisfaction, you must get when you see that truck pull away with another good job well done and earned. there goes a lot of Pride in that truck. thank you for what you do. and best of all for sharing it with us.
This was a really great series of videos. Apart from the historical significance of the wheels, and that they'll be used to illustrate a period of New World development, it was fascinating watching the replication of cannon wheels using pretty pure traditional techniques blended with some modern techniques. I particularly liked seeing the tires made and put in place. I learned a lot. I hope you get the pictures you would like to have from the customer.
Can't wait for your next project. ;)
i watch these videos and convinced that you are handsomely compensated. And you should be. A dollar amount means very little considering the level of your expertise. Thank you for the hours of education and entertainment.
your kind of workmanship cannot be put into dollars,because no matter what the cost,it isn't enough.again,great work engles.
Man! Even the packaging operation is no joke!
🤜🤛
Even the crate is a work of art
My fingers hesitate above the keyboard, weary of my own negativity. The essence of what I see in your work is that you are your business and your satisfaction with your work is shared with every business and every person who associated with you. One could say a virus of harmony. That to me is why we make things; A want or need, a way to have that need fulfilled and that done at a fair price. No one to screw over, no one to do over, no one to undercut or outdo. This is the essence, dare I say reason why we do stuff. Yeah, build other reasons - "he has a family to support", "he has investments to support", "he owes money",
need, fulfil, reward.
You don't need an MBA for that.
Thank you for letting us watch you build them
It's really nice to see TRUE craftsmanship.. So much nicer than mass produced cookie cutter stuff being shoved in our faces.. Excellent work ethic. Very hard to find these days.
Excellent, you are a king in your own right, and I hope they paid a lot! It is indeed priceless.
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.
Whew, I’m exhausted. Glad we made it through.
Good job....
People who thumbs down your content have their heads up their asses ... fine work sir.
300 hours, at 50 hrs per week ='s six weeks. I am sure you were glad to see them go. A project very well done.
I work with my hands every day i'm 65 and you got more skills than i have ever seen and i know many you had to learn your self great work!!!!
I so glad that you found youtube to share your work and knowledge on for us all to see. It really is amazing the work you produce and all by yourself. Is such a pleasure to see a real craftsman at work and including all aspects of that work even down to the every day routine of sweeping the floors )).
I only really stumbled across your channel by accident but have just watched the whole 12 episode series almost back to back. Really glad you have a lot more content for my viewing pleasure. Keep up the awesome work and then captivating video presentation too. Very much appreciate all the effort you go to to share all this knowledge with us all.
Many thanks all the way from England
This series was so interesting, and the effort to make these wheels is nothing short of impressive. Then consider what it took to make these wheels (and the rest of the cannon) in the 18th or early 19th centuries when almost all the work was man-powered.
I am enjoying this channel. Awesome workmanship even in the shipping of his wheels!
Its great to see there are still men that create these wonderful pieces of artwork .
You do not mess around, EVERYTHING 1st. class. It is is nice to see someone who thinks like I do.
The last few seconds, as you close the door and walk into the shop, I wondered if you felt a little pang, a little sadness, as something beautiful that you have toiled on for so many weeks leaves your life? Thank you for this wonderful series - not just the craftsmanship, but the little life hints and lessons also. Domo arigato, Sensei.
As much as I loved watching you build these wheels I have to admit this was my favorite video. I once was in the warehouse and shipping business. I sometimes picked material, sometimes help load trucks, and sometimes drove the trucks unloading and loading them at the destinations. Watching a perfectionist like you package something this heavy for shipment was a sheer joy. If everyone packaged pallets that way there would probably never be any product damage even if someone dropped the pallet (unless they ran into the product with the lift).
I just subscribed to your channel. I am an amateur woodworker and have very much enjoyed watching your videos. Perhaps if we're ever in the Joilet area we can stop by for a visit. It is a pleasure to watch an accomplished craftsman, such as yourself, turn out their products. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing your next project.
Pride is your work and attention to detail is wonderful to behold. Thank you for sharing your skills and traditional craft with us.
Have fun taking that shipping pallet apart ! NICE !
Dear sir, thx for this wonderful journey in your craftsmanship and workshop with all this specialized equipment. Above all, your own made jig,s. I am raised between showjumping horses a total different world , therefore for me it was highly educational !! Pass if you can this knowledge to a next generation , otherwise over 20 years it,s really lost. Keep doing what you are doing, greetings piet puck amsterdam holland !!
Whatever the customer paid, they got a bargain. And we got a wonderful experience. As all the rest of your viewers I am looking forward to your next project. It's great to know that someone is keeping some of the old skills alive. Thanks. Could you share where in Florida the wheels are headed for? 12 wheels, 6 cannons, do you think they are going to start a war? ;-)
@@Garth2011 Thanks for the link Garth
@@EngelsCoachShop That's only an hour from my place, I didn't know they built cannons in Polatka.
they totally butchered those beauties with that paintjob !

hOW ABOUT A PAIR FOR THE FRONT OF HOUSE?

@@Garth2011, the wheels pictured on that website are not these wheels. These wheels have a black bar on the fellos that's approx 1x4. The ones in the photos have black squares on the fellos. 💝☀🌵
I feel the same as Dean Howard
a joy to watch
Master Craftsmen are an awesome experience to watch.
Even the packaging is pure art.
Thanx for letting us. You got to know how much you are appreciated. 🤪🖖🏻🇬🇧🌈
Even the crating is a thing well done, I mean, done with love.
Good sense of good working.
Congratulations.
Remarkable series Dave. Bulky, intricate, wood and steel coupled,,, all assembled by a definite craftsman. The trip was a pleasure.
Charlie
Looking forward to what is next.
You have an amazing skill set and it has been a pleasure to enjoy this experience with you. I am sure your wheels will be admired for many a year to come. The world needs more people like you, people who can solve problems and think for themselves as only really practical people can. It has been an immense pleasure to watch your videos. What is your next project?
watched the video series couldn't stop, excellent work and so many innovative ideas
Not only are you HIGHLY skilled but you are a very honest person. Most people would have charged for the packing materials. Thanks for letting us watch.
I'm amazed by how much work and attention to detail you have put into the packaging of the wheels. Those pallets are a work of art in of itself!
Gotta say though; with your high level of workmanship, its no surprise that you wanted to ensure that the wheels get there in the same state as they left you.
Thanks for making this series of videos. I watch every one, and I enjoyed all of them. Its always a pleasure watching a craftsman work. :)
You sure make it interesting. You are such a Craftsman.
That was indeed a fun video. It’s so relaxing watching other people work, LOL. Relaxing with my morning coffee before heading out myself. Thanks.
Thank you for letting us come along for the ride Mr Engels.
Thank You, those strapping tools sure brought back some memories.
What a great series of videos. Your craftsmanship, patience, and general calm outlook are such rare commodities. I loved watching your mastery of metal and wood, and all this without any fancy 3D computer imagery.
My goodness I had no idea that crating them would be such an enormous amount of work.You sure did an excellent job making sure they get there without a scratch!!!
I wheely enjoyed the entire display of what must be almost a lost art. Your recording of this process should be added to a national archive. Like too much of craft history, when it's gone, it's gone.
I suggest if you can between projects show us other works/improvements/repairs you've done around your shop or home. I am sure we all can benefit from your skills in that area and use them ourselves.
Amazing craftsman, even his shipping packaging is a masterpiece .
Just can't express how much I have enjoyed watching all your videos. You are truly a master at what you do. Thanks for sharing it with us.
You are one ingenious guy Dave.
Mr. Engels, Observing the affection and dedication that you pack the wheels, one can have the notion of the size of the professionalism that you have, SENSATIONAL AND CONGRATULATIONS.
It's been an absolute pleasure watching your videos.
Your customers get a great deal whatever the cost all said and done the biggest cost is your knowledge and skill. I'm not sure if that reads as a complement it sure intended to be😁😁😁🎊🎉👍🎊👍 thanks for sharing.
You may have done this already, but how about a video on the history of the shop building and tow
A prideful moment!
as usual, a job well done and a joy to watch, thanks for having us on this ride. :)
The man can't even cut a corner on the packaging... A true master of his art
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL build with amazing craftsmanship in every respect !!!!! The person who unwraps those wheels is in for a real workout !!!!
I really enjoyed this series. Your a very talented craftsman!
Binged watched the series. WOW!!! Beautiful craftsmanship.
Thank You for sharing this with us. Thumbs up on each video but saved till the end.
Would have taken me 300 hours for just one ~cry~ LOL
The commentary was great. Really enjoyed it over the high volume music like so many other on here think is needed.
Being from the Syracuse area I just had to look up that sander. Interesting history lesson for me.
I used to do small wood crafts and put a little heart into each one. It shows you do the same.
What a joy to watch a Craftsman work!! Who needs TV when we have your channel. BTW I am in the forklift business give me the model and serial # of that old Allis Chalmers and I will see what I can do to find the parts you need in the future. Our parts Manager has been in the business over forty years and was there when they built it.
Living here in central Florida, it would be nice to see the canons when finished, have enjoyed all your videos, have gotten a lot of inspiration, and ideas for my current project!
Been a joy to watch.
I and the wife plan on traveling to your neck of the woods in our camper
this summer.
I would like to say howdy to you if not I will be looking up your shop and take
some photo.
Thank you!
Yes you need a makers mark.
Thank you not only for sharing this series but I really wanted to see the creating. Having done lots of mechanical things in my life, I really recognize your unique and above average talent and skills. I love your style, presentation and editing skills and just plain honesty.
New to the channel. Really enjoyed this series of videos . The comment about the hotrod forklift made me giggle. Wish the I drive at work sounded like that! lol . Thanks for uploading them.
Enjoyed the entire series, Thanks.
Whatever they cost they are worth it .Thanks I LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT PROJECT
Me he sentido triste al ver marchar estás magníficas obras de arte.
En ellas va un pedacito de alma del artista.
Un abrazo enorme desde España.
Thank you so much for sharing with us these magnificent peaces of art ! They worth a lot, first because they are hand made and second, because history has to be kept !
Thank you for seeing a fantastic job
with the canonwheel. You are realy a
master in your proffesion!
Excellent as always.
Excellent series! You seem like a very honest and hard working man. It has been enjoyable to see your craftsmanship, hard work, and the final results!
Great series!
