- We got a sheep wagon! We're very excited to own this unique piece of Montana history. I hope you'll enjoy following along on the adventure of fixing up & using this old sheep wagon as a guest house out in our sheep pasture.

Hi, I'm Jayce, the blacksmith behind Farmstead Forge. I am a farrier by trade; I learned the basics of blacksmithing at shoeing school and the rest I learned on my own. I'm excited to expand my knowledge and continue learning while also sharing my passion with others.
Join me in the shop on my Montana farmstead where I enjoy building tools and other fun projects that we can use around the place.

Wow this takes me back; as a kid we had an old sheep wagon that was in similar shape, but had sheetrock on the inside! We inherited it from a family friend who used it as a pattern to build an entire new sheep wagon for a local ranch owner who had draft horse teams and collected wagons.
As kids, we used it as a playhouse to play pioneers for years.
Always love to see these old rigs get new life!
That's a cool story, thanks for sharing I enjoy hearing that kind of stuff!
No experience with these but am looking forward to learning and seeing how you revie this ole girl! Great family project, will definitely make forever memories for one and all! I will be on board to learn and watch the restoration! Good post!
Ya it is definitely going to be a fun family project! I built a set of steps for it the other day and my little guy kept running off with my impact. Now every time we go to the shop he has to take my impact back over there and "work on" the stairs. I'll definitely post updates!
Great farmstay project. Not in to bad of shape. We just the other day cut some pine boards at 19-1/2" x 2" x 16ft. They were beautiful. Wish we were closer.
Those sound perfect! When you sending them up? 😉
Well this is a curve ball! haha...that's cool had no idea this kinda shack even existed before watching this video.Thanks for the tour and for keeping stuff interesting Jayce. Nice day to be out shoeing some horses....it was 54 degrees here!
Ya these were a big part of history in Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and many other states I am sure. My dad and Grandpa always said that some of the biggest ranches were paid off from sheep, then later went into cows. We had a nice warm snap too but now it is cold and snowy again!
@@FarmsteadForge That's interesting, I know when I was in college, at least out here they said sheep are the quickest return on investment, but I think cattle probably take that place now. And this is some crazy weather I'm sure it's coming to Wisconsin soon enough. Take it easy!
Wish you were close to Arkansas I’d give you enough nice old hardwood to fix all your damage . I’ve got some of those 20” planks also ,,really wish we had timber like that again . Really like your place and what you’re doing !
Barn wood not hardwood is although some of it probably is , but mostly pine 😊
@@randygolden4520 a lot of Ash was used in wagon building actually.
Thank you I'm glad you are enjoying it! I think I can come up with enough old stuff to get it fixed up for now, but if you were closer I'd surely take you up on your offer!
Well for sure you have to forge hinges and a hasp to replace that ugly store bought modified hinge. Back when I got out of the USAF and came back home I had a 71 Chevy half ton. And I went over to my dad's sawmill and cut myself some side boards. They were solid Tulip Poplar, 1X24s for an 8 foot bed. I need to see if those boards are still laying around over there at the country place.
71 Chevy was a good year!
Looks good mate . Have You seen the one John over on Black bear forge has got , Mite be worth a look . Cheers .👍🤠
Thanks! Ya we actually checked his video out awhile back. Thanks for following along!
