A Creative Use For Old Wagon Tires | Engels Coach Shop

- With basic blacksmithing tools we can re-purpose old wagon tires in to useful racks for the home. I like to make them into firewood holders, both for the interior fireplace, and they're also useful around the campfire in the back yard.

![Why Did They Stop Making These? [Restoration]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gh0SV8aPnMU/mqdefault.jpg)
This what I called the most finest workmanship, quality of the stuffs that Made in USA made by the real American
I bet this man could build Noah's ark for the one and only. Such a great man at work with so many skills.
In a world that seems to be bent on "wokeing", "mandating", and dividing us, I'm thankful for simple heart warming things of beauty. Thank you and Happy Holy Days to you and yours.
Words like, Poetry, Beautiful, Wonderful, Simple, Fantastic spring to mind, they go no further than that because I am speechless.
Dave you are amazing.....Thanks my friend.....Bye for now
Naturally rounded-worn tire edges are very lovely.
Beautiful and it will last another 100 years!
I'm in my late 70s. When my father-in-law was a little kid, he said one of the games they played was "click and wheel." They'd find an old wagon tire and see how far they could roll it.
You'll never need to get another one. Your great great grandchildren will still be using it. I bet you could bury it in wet dirt for 200 years and it would still work perfectly.
The last part of this video was riveting. I will never tire of watching it.
Thanks for another installment of your video series, Dave!
Every week when I watch your videos my wife thinks I'm watching King of the Hill and that you sound like Hank Hill. 🤣
Hi Dave. The on-camera talking with your good microphone is a real bonus I think. Another great video. Thank you.
What a beautiful piece of work! That's what I call recycling... 🤠🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵
Reduce, re-use, re-cycle...... Purrrrrrfect ! ! !
Wish I had an old hand forge and an anvil. Nothing is scrap when you have those two tools.
Each week we can only stand in awe of the master - whatever next.
AllmIncan say, Brother Dave , is ‘you da man’!
Dave: You =saved a old wheel tire from the next load of scrap. I am going to make me on to match what you just showed us how to make!! THANKS Dan H
You're welcome!

I loved the 10 inches, roughly!
I watch this craftsman at work and feel inadequate 😢…another great watch ..👍👍
It's a beautiful thing! Give up wagon wrangling and go full-time on firewood holders!
Thanks for that! I use the wrought for knives, (cladding). This is another great way to “upcycle” the heritage items in our lives.
Always good to see some blacksmithing!
After WWII Moore’s Blacksmith Shop, at the corner of Oak and Jackson, Red Bluff, CA, since 1910 and currently owned by the fifth generation, had wagon tire bar stock they would never use. I have a housewright or carpenter’s slick made from some of that wagon tire stock that has a beautiful socket, a great example of blacksmith’s art. Unfortunately, without a high carbon edge it’s not a great slick, but I appreciate the skill and knowing it’s history.
love this. Made the ol fashioned way
if only I had old wagon tires and a blacksmith's station... it would be a good idea for weekend housework ;)
Stay safe and we'll see you next week.
Thank you Dave, for showing how to use a TRAVELER. I have watched you many times and am still baffled. You are a great resource . John, Michigan
Thats a great project made from scrap. My Dad had a saw horse made by the local blacksmith from old cart wagon tyres, when we moved we left it at the old house.
Nice! And sweet move with the hammer flip when banging those rivets. So smooth I almost didn't realize it happened. 😎
A mere mortal 'Smith might well have bolted that rack together and figured the slop in the joints would settle in and eliminate the wobble, but Dave showed us how to create a rack that will probably outlive that woodstove! As always Dave: thanks for allowing us along on your journey. Wishing you, Diane and your family a happy holiday season and a very Merry Christmas!
Dave Sharp Idea Thank You
butt kissers
Buenas noches.
Usted es un artista y hace arte con sus hábiles manos, ¡Felicidades!
I’m willing to bet a handshake from Dave would break my pinky finger, and I’m a carpenter/plumber 20 years in. Cheers Dave, keep ‘em coming.
Although I love watching Dave's smithing skills, those of you suggesting he turn the rest of the tires into similar wood racks to sell, have not worked in manufacturing. What we just watched was probably AT LEAST 4 hours labor. Firewood racks go for $99 to around $300 for something more substantial. Difficult to compete with assembly line for price, except maybe for us die-hard fans. Thanks Dave for another interesting project.
reminder-keep flammables 3' from stove , nice woodstove accessory, Dave
Magic! Nothing gets thrown away; there's a re-use for practically everything!
You are a very talented man! God bless.
this is a really great idea. But I have a problem. I am fresh out of old wagon tires.😁😁 Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
😄
This construction made me smile from beginning to end. What beautiful and functional piece of art. Thanks, for sharing.
Hammer sculpting!! Gotta love it! An old friend once told me, " If a hammer doesn't work, you're using the wrong one!!"
Great idea! I had no guess what this is 'til you put it beside the oven.
Greetings from Germany, and a peaceful time for you and your family!

8:40 Dave says he will measure "Roughly." His measurements are always precise with excellent alignment, which is why so many of us enjoy watching him do the job right.
If only I had wagon tires,, nice work And a fireplace
Dear Mr. Engel, if you ever planned a Christmas Special, this is it! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Germany.
Haha, Wally and the Beaver had a good use for those. Just ask Lumpy's dad.
Best regards from Indiana.
Чудово!!!!
love the mid-week videos almost as much as the wagon ones
I saw where the tire was set in the ground on spikes and in the circle they hang those plasma cuttings of horses buffalo heads elk and family signs with adresses. Nice work!
I like the fact that you riveted them instead of bolts..it gives it that old time look i like so much with iron stuff for this application. beautiful...
That's a sweet for the old metal tires. I'll have to keep that in mind once I get a shop set up again.
Hi Dave and Diane ☺, what a neat idea, and it looks great sat beside the stove, it'll probably outlast anything you could have bought too. Thanks for another interesting video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and Diane, Stuart UK.
A very minimalist design, but it suits well you fire wood stove.
And now you have only 88 more old tires to use.
That is cool, what a great idea.
Making sure to get it just right was satisfying.
Now if i could only find wagon tires lol
Great blacksmithing project!
True waste not want not as blacksmiths have done down the centuries. What do I need vs what do I have to hand and a sprinkle of art and genius in between. Excellent!
I'd buy one if it was for sale, great idea.
A real pleasure watching a True Master of his craft.
From old wagon consumable to a functional work of art that will last for generations. Beautiful!
Merry Christmas Dave and Dianne to you and yours. Thank you for another year of edutainment.
Really looking good.Thanks for posting.
Thanks Santa Dave😁
Love the final leveling adjustment being carried out with a ball peen hammer.
Once again thanks for the video.
I hope you sell a lot of these. I love useful stuff from junk. If I lived near you I would order two. One for the house burner and the other for the barbecue.
Nice use for old wagon tires.
That looks like a Buck stove.
I LIKE it!!! Nice!! Thanks D & D!!
Here in Ireland the worn tires were often straightened and made into very attractive farm gates by blacksmiths using the same riveting technique. Those gates are sought-after now, but they still turn up on older farms.
Love to watch you work the Iron....
Thanks, Dave

Congratulations on your idea of recycling rims for wagon wheels. Greetings to you and your wife from the city of Catania
I need one of these in my garage. Also use them to hang the cast iron wash pot. I have a Wards, John Deere, & International metal horse drawn wagon chassis. Built from 1910 to 1930
Love them log holders, ❤️ . Mike.
Thanks Dave. Merry Christmas to your familly and community
super cool idea! Genius at work!!!!!
Well done!
Excellent!
Nice Dave. Looks like you have a little inventory, maybe market those, they look great. Keep on smiling.
You are simply amazing. Nice job shaping the metal for the wood holder. Stay safe.
Dave, a lot of these folks sound like you just opened a new business. Merry Christmas to you and Diane from Barb and I.
Same to you, Gil. We might ask Janelle if she wants to make some to sell.
Wonderful firewood holder you made. Great and thanks for showing us.
Amazing job Dave, you’re a true magician 😁😁
Thank you Dave. Watching you forge is a much better cure for my PTSD than the creepy med's my psychiatrist prescribes me.
You are not allowed to retire Dave! I've grown to love your erudite drawl. Creativity personified.
Wow! How cool is that Dave way to go
What a clever idea do use of old wagon wheels I think that is great craftsmanship there again enjoyed watching your videos. Once again keep up with a good video she do a great job. 😊
Simply beautiful,,,,,,, thanks,,,,🇨🇦👍
Allô Dave,,,,,,i am 86 y.o.,,,,,,,in my young years, I went with my dad, on a horse pulled covered cart, delivering bread and easter
Cross buns,,,,,,in Montreal,,,,that Nelly knew were to go, and stop, for me to give the bread to that family,,,,,,much souvenirs 😍🇨🇦
Pretty cool little project.
My reserve is under the stove, so... But very interesting lesson about how to do this work! Thanks!🙏🧡💚
Beautiful wood rack. Great that you riveted the pieces...a wonderful attribute.
all I can say is very nice awesome 👍
Those are the best heaters, air tight. Amazing. What wouldn't go better than a nice wrought iron firwood holder made from AGED iron with much history in their blood.
If I come out and help can I get one?? I’ll sweep up😁. Nice job!👍
Another use would be to cut the tires into shorter lengths and make a garden hose holder. Say five or six together plus another length to tie them together and act as a hanger.
I would get welded circles of mild steel made in town, 1" wide x 48-60", depending. I would use them as raw stock to make two things.
One which was my best seller was a unit as a half circle to go against the wall, with an added brace on top to hold weight.
Then make a bunch of single and double hooks and people used them in the kitchen to hold pots/pans, etc.
I could get two from one circle or in your case, wheel.
The other thing was more upmarket, (expensive) meaning chandeliers. Candle and electric. That went with chain and usually candle sconce or bulb outlets. These days, 12v lights might work. My hourly was great with these, very popular and profitable.
Good ideas
Good job and I bet it sold for a good price as well. As always, Thanks for another great video.
When ever I think I'm a decent blacksmith I try to shape some old tire and I'm usually humbled.
It's amazing how much slag is in that wrought iron.
That is extremely neat. Maybe you ought to sell those. Use up that odd stock of old wagon tires. Put a big red, white, and blue tag on them saying made in the USA.
DAVE, GREAT VIDEO, TELL ALL HELLO, SEE YOU WHEN...
Functional and pretty good looking too. Here's wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas.
