I first learned about Engles Coach Shop when his Borax Wagon build popped up in my suggestions. It's fascinating to watch him do period correct repairs on 100+ year old wheels, wagons & buggies.
Indeed, Ingalls Coach Shop is a Great channel! He does fantastic work/art! Another great channel is this Dude in Tennessee that runs a sawmill. Out of the Woods it’s called. Wild chickens, hateful cat and cool tractors! Can’t beat it! Many Blessings and Kind Thanks Nathan! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
I've been watching Engles Coach Shop for a couple of years now. I love the copilation video's where he puts all the videos covering one build in his shop.
Dave Engels is a true artisan there is not much he can't do and he is a master at everything it will be a sad day when he retires not many people want to carry on his trade
Hi Nathan, I watch Engels Coach Shop also. Keep passing the learning on. As l learned about you years ago because of Jim from The Tradesman Channel. God bless and take care from California.
Been watching your channel for a while now I like the different logs you saw I particularly like the music 🎶 you choose 👍 content fantastic footage now a subscriber thank you for your content brilliant
The old timers liked the checking because it was more common to split and hew the logs rather than to saw them. Back then it was probably quicker and more efficient to split the wood down rather than to hand saw it especially with tough hard woods. Love your channel and I also love Dave Engels' too a fascinating and interesting craft making wagons and wheels. More power to all those people around the world keeping the old and traditional crafts alive.
As much as I enjoy watching your work and the absolutely beautiful woods, I have to confess that I'm eally just here for the music! LOL! I'd love it if you could give some names and credits, so I can try to run them down, especially on days like today, when what sounds like a nice folk piece, will get cut off as you start to work! Dang it all! My dad didn't leave me much, regarding the things of this world, but he gave me a love for real music like that piece.
i like a lot of the music he plays too! here is a couple i got off of itunes: th-cam.com/video/sGlGewoyRUo/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=EpidemicAcoustic th-cam.com/video/YrSpgJzILQ0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=EpidemicAcoustic
Yay, a road trip! Even those short ones are special to me!---It always freaks me out when I catch a whiff of wood all the way over here in California!!!
Kudos to the clarity of your videos. I am from Northeast PA and Shagbark Hickory is the common stuff here. I would love to see how handles are made from hickory you are making for your customer. Ash wood here took a big hit from the beetle bore and oak as well from the gypsy moths. As always, great video. Thank You Friend!
Must be your newer microphone Nathan, very crisp clear audio, capturing some pretty neat sounds while running the equipment. Appreciate the great content as always.
If the old timers were to use that hickory to make handles out of they would have split them out maybe that is why they liked the checks as they told em where to start .
I've always like trees with gnarled, twisted trunks and branches; I just think tit looks cool. But since I started watching this channel, I will see a tree with a long, straight trunk and think, 'that is a good looking tree!'
I would have really enjoyed you for a shop teacher back in middle school and high school Nathan. (1972-1978) Most of our shop teachers didn't take the time to explain things clearly.
hickory is so hard it's sometimes better to split it along the cracks first, then set it up for sawing what you can get. Otherwise it might just cup and twist and crack apart after it's milled. Tried to timber frame with it once working it while green, the pieces we worked split from one end to the other by the time we got back from lunch.
Venturing an opinion, the old time pioneers used wood differently than we do they followed the natural grain and often split things to size, a beam that's split with the grain will always be stronger than cutting the fibers that make the long to a neat net shape. They worked with the wood rather than worked the wood...
I never realized that you go through blades so quickly at the sawmill. Do you send them back to Joe Maine for refurbishing? If not, what happens to all the old blades?
I gotta tell you Nathan(?) I was a Lurker. I've been watching your videos from early on and had not subscribed. I corrected that a few minutes ago. It has been interesting watch You and the chanel grow. You've become quite adept with the camera, too (Pro Photog 37 years). The Chanel must take a lot of your time but you've hit the top of my Must Watch. A little about me. I'm watching You from a place called Boyne Island on the East Coast of Australia. I'm 74yo, single man, sitting in his Caravan. I'm on an Australian Pension but if I win the Lottery, I'll sling You some cash. Thanks for making my Retirement more interesting. Stupid Question: Would there be any advantage to having a Sawmill that cuts on both passes?
Alright Nathan... you done did it this time... On the phone with Mom, and because you are recording for youtube you couldn't say "Love You Mom"? Might have to pull your southern card if that keeps up! And lease tell here that sme rednck from West By God was thinking of her in that monent
Here in Arizona when buying hickory it can actually be pecan. The two species are interchangeable. What about in your part of the country? Pecan grows very well in the lower elevations (1000-3500 foot range) but I can’t say I’ve ever seen a hickory tree here. Pecan is not native nor a harvested wood in Arizona. Ponderosa pine and (true) juniper are harvested.
That's some nice looking hickory, Nathan. Looks like some of it was trying to spalt from being on the ground so long. I am curious about one thing, though. Would there be any advantage to quarter sawing it?
Dang! Hickory has to be cut asap! Also cut and sealed asap. Doesn't do well in the sun split very quickly also spalts and rots very fast sitting on the ground!
Is Maple and Pecan hard on saw blades? I've never cut either of these and a fellow is wanting me to cut a few for him. Thanks for any insight or advice. (Joseph in Myrtle Beach, SC)
Maple can vary a lot, hard maple is slightly less hard than avg hickory species. Pecan isn't officially a hickory species, but same genus and very similarly hard- meaning the hardest widely available native wood in the US
I just put a bunch of Cedar on the ETSY store:www.etsy.com/shop/OTWForestry
Great editing, music is superb, tractors and sawmill asmr kept me watching the whole time!
I too have been watching Mr. Engels for quite a while. Thanks for a great channel too.
I love Engels coach shop! He is an expert craftsman. If he doesn’t have it he’ll make it.
You have this St. Louis born, Texas livin’, 61 year old hooked on your channel . . . . THANKS
Been watching Dave Engels every Saturday morning since he started. Highly recommend this channel.
I enjoy Engel's Coach shop videos also.
Mr. Engels is a true craftsman. Been watching his channel for years.
He will be an impossible act to follow.
The 20 mule team wagons he built were incredible.
I started after Nathan mentioned it, but my favorite is still OTW with Nathan Elliott,
Mr Engels' channel is a fave of mine too Nate.
Keep yew a'troshin bor !
I love watching Engles, you and other people that do not mind actually working. The working man made America great.

You have an excellent program. You had a chance to tell your mom you love her. One day you won't be able to. Something to think about
I sure do look forward to watching your videos Thank You for the time you put into making them!
Ahh, the sound of a sharp plane. Love it!
I could hear that blade working hard on every cut of that hickory
Nice Hickory Nathan, always love your Video's, keep up the great work.
i enjoy watching your videos and your music your very close to my sisters place in Rodgersville Tenn
Beautiful timber you shared. I can only imaging the scents of freshly sawn lumber. Amazing.

Hickory is some gorgeous wood! I've built cabinets out of it before. Beautiful, but no fun to sand or assemble with. But lasts forever! 🙂
Well done 👍
Ahh the grains of Hickory 👊🏼👊🏼🔨🪚🇺🇸
Thanks for sharing that information and milling of the Hickory Log Nathan. Sure looked great. Fred.
You making Rabbit bedding there at the last, Nathan? 😉 That Hickory looks amazing!
I love Engels videos
That hickory sure is hard sawing! Thanks brother! 😎👍👋👍😎
Brought tears to my eyes hearing your momma’s voice. Sounded just like my mamaw. ❤️

Ah, hickory. Your favourite wood.
Mighty nice hickory. Glad you did wait until Spring.
Yay, a road trip! Even those short ones are special to me!---It always freaks me out when I catch a whiff of wood all the way over here in California!!!

Early settlers used inner bark of hickory and elm boiled into tee for a laxative.
Must be your newer microphone Nathan, very crisp clear audio, capturing some pretty neat sounds while running the equipment. Appreciate the great content as always.
hi looks like your debarked is working well , nice sawing john
That is some really nice Hickory.
I have some live hickory and dead black oak coming down in a few weeks. Hoping to slab some of it and also make some turning blanks
If the old timers were to use that hickory to make handles out of they would have split them out maybe that is why they liked the checks as they told em where to start .
Nathen nice job,good information. Great videos. 👍
I wish i had a way to bring you some of my logs, i have some florida live oak. It have had the logs sitting for 1 1/2 years.
ahh,, had to call my son back the other day,, I was running the carpet scrubber and didn't hear it ... haha.
I've always like trees with gnarled, twisted trunks and branches; I just think tit looks cool. But since I started watching this channel, I will see a tree with a long, straight trunk and think, 'that is a good looking tree!'

Put some axe and a hatchet handles blanks in your store! I can't even get quartersawn for handles here in Seattle. Don't know why.

Who's that singing on the video. Love your videos. Love the music too. I watch every day. I find it very relaxing.
Great video as always sir. 👍
Like the music.
I never realized that you go through blades so quickly at the sawmill. Do you send them back to Joe Maine for refurbishing? If not, what happens to all the old blades?
Hey Nathan how's come we never get to meet mom?? 😳
After you change out a blade, can it be resharpened and if so how many times?

Stupid Question: Would there be any advantage to having a Sawmill that cuts on both passes?
I found a petrified Hickory log a few years back, 10 to 15 million years old! Finished up real nice!
Ever use the hickory scraps for your smoker?
I love hickory but it is a bugger too work with.
Alright Nathan... you done did it this time... On the phone with Mom, and because you are recording for youtube you couldn't say "Love You Mom"? Might have to pull your southern card if that keeps up! And lease tell here that sme rednck from West By God was thinking of her in that monent
I have a woodland mills sawmill on a 25’ track. What’s the best length for cutting hardwood slabs.

MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼
Perhaps the thing about checks had more to do with splitting timber down rather than sawing it?
Sorry but I have to say it .. the wheel goes round and round...lol bet your dad was happy to see you bring him the wood.
Do you know that similar song by Buffy St Marie?
@@alanatolstad4824 Not that is a name I haven't heard for a while! Going to have to listen to some, thank you Alana.
Do you check your logs with a metal detector before sawing them?
Do you sharpen your dull blades, or do you just change them out with news ones and throw the dull one out?
Has a sharpener & setter, has been shown on videos.
Good 👍👍👍🙏
Wish you would check the humidity more just for fun.
I kind of like to know how dry that hickory was.
The chair... 🙂
Dang! Hickory has to be cut asap! Also cut and sealed asap. Doesn't do well in the sun split very quickly also spalts and rots very fast sitting on the ground!
200 years ago the trees were old growth.
And had the same biology of trees today
Whats going on with the draw knife? Teaser for next video. Thank you and take care.
I'm going with hand plane. Shavings are falling away from feet. And I'll guess table
Duramax? Nice truck
Yes 👍

Have you ever missed a slab with your spike and hit the table, yet?
Is there a type of log/wood you haven’t sawed yet that you’d still like to?
Do you still sharpen your own blades?
I guess now we know where your accent comes from. :)
👍
Sounds your dad runs things at his house lol.
Can you get a lumber stamp?
I need one yes
@@OutoftheWoods0623 a logo branding iron 👌
Godspeed
You need a Wood-Mizer Cant Hook, the blue doesn’t match the mill, lol
Anybody else wonder what he's doing with the cedar at the end?
👋🏻
Boa noite amigo fortaleza ceará brazil....
What’s the name of the song towards the beginning of the video?
What's the song in the beginning? Thanks
What kind of hickory? looks like pecan.
USE A SPAY BOTTLE INSTEAD OF A BUCKET FULL OF WATER??
👍😊😊🌎🌞👍
How do you like your Chevy DuraMax? Have you had any issues with it?
Zero. Great truck
you ever worry about snakes under the logs?
He's in a tractor!
What beautiful lumber. A shame to put it in a wood stove.
