  • Building and restoring horse drawn vehicles often involves a complete tear down and rebuild of 100 year old wagons. This remains from the Spear-O Ranch is such a project. Traditional carriages, wagons, coaches and buggies is what I work with.

    I watched you build this from start to finish and what a beautiful job but you do need to have a considerable knowledge on where and how all those rotting wooden frames together with the associated ironwork actually go together. You not only have to be an excellent woodworker, but a blacksmith, wheel right and a truly broad knowledge of numerous horse drawn vehicles. I just love all your videos

    The quality of wood you can source is incredible and is only surpassed by your craftsmanship.

    • @gbwildlifeuk8269
      @gbwildlifeuk8269 ปีที่แล้ว

      True. Here in UK sourcing quality timber is very difficult. Its all chipboard, MDF and pine now! When you do source it, the likes of oak is around £70 cubic meter, plus delivery, plus vat (20%)!

  • @carltodd1486
    @carltodd1486 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I just had a thought that I think is relevant- I watch your videos because you are a master at what you do. But that is only part. Another part is that you don’t just represent competence and sanity - you ARE competence and sanity. What weird times we live in. Bizarre time doesn’t do it justice. Watching a master at work and enjoying it knowing there is no hidden agenda or political intrigue etc- you renew my faith in humanity. As long as you make videos I will watch.
    Idea: I don’t know what your favorite charity is but what if you made something out of the pieces of steel you cut of the borax wagon wheel and sold it for yourself or for charity? I could see you forge a beautiful knife out of some of it. That would also make a great video that showcases your metal working skill in a slightly different light

  • @vincentwesolowski459
    @vincentwesolowski459 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Dave, There is no doubt in my mind that you are a “Craftsman,” however, with this project I think you were a “Magician.” I see it but I don’t believe it. What an amazing job.

  • @patmancrowley8509
    @patmancrowley8509 ปีที่แล้ว

    A wonderful way to spend a beautiful day, oiling the the undercarriage in partial shade. Wowzers, it doesn't get much better than that (well, if you added barbeque and your favorite beverage then it'd be better).

  • @davidsellars646
    @davidsellars646 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I recently read something on Facebook that takes things up a notch. When a craftsman puts his heart into what he does, he's an artist, It's obvious that Dave puts everything into, what I'd call, masterpieces. He is a true artist of the trade. Even if the viewer never builds even the first piece of a wagon or wheel, he is inspiring everyone to be the best craftsman and artist in whatever they do.

    • @garrettswoodworx1873
      @garrettswoodworx1873 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm 71 and it is clear that I will never build a wagon wheel, let alone an entire wagon. but I eagerly await each of Dave's videos. I have learned an incredible amount of history along with considerable skills transferable to the woodworking I do and a sincere & deep respect for Dave and the work he does. Dave's steadfast dedication to his trade and to craftsmanship inspires me to be the best I can at the things I do.
