Absolutely lovely sir! Nice old Massey 44. Had a 33 myself for running an auger when we first started farming. Farming put me into a wheelchair so now I'm making toys for the grandchildren. And now my aspiration is to make them as nice as yours! Thank you for the videos.
These are the most realistic tractor tires I seen anyone make bar none! You sir are a master!. I'm 62 years old now, in the course of my life as a mechanic of one form or another I spent about 16 years as a John Deere mechanic and even a Ford tractor mechanic. I ended my mechanical career as an industrial hydraulics technician, specializing in high pressure closed loop hydraulic systems. I would be doing that today but was kinda forced into retirement when I had to leave my work to enter into cancer treatment for stage 3 lung cancer. I BEAT the cancer but unfortunatly not the effects of chemo and radiation. I am grateful to be alive as 4-1/2 years back the doctor said "I give you about 90 days, guess the Lord wasn't finished with me so he kept me around. I have a little (12X16) wood craft shop out back that has helped me stay busy and keeps my mind off of my problems. Sorry I got carried away here but again, Thank You for taking the time to share your knowledge with the rest of us. By the way, I love your indexing Jig!......
The models you make are beautiful! Thanks for sharing your methods, jigs, etc. It's unselfish people like you who get people interested in woodworking by showing different ways to accomplish the goal and making people realize that they can have good results.
WOW!!!! Brother you are a PROFESSIONAL when it comes to wood working. I would LOVE to come up and hang out in your shop for a week and learn more about wood working. 😉👍🏼
Identical Massey Harris my Father had. Wow. I did drive it as well. I remember the colours also. Yellow rims and body where the rest was red and close to fire engine red as well. The tractor originally was sitting in a paddock flat tires and all. The motor was seized but Dad unlocked the motor and rebuilt it. It had a down draught carby like this one which says it is petrol like your pic shows. I love the effort you put into the models and they are superb. I have built a Mack truck but stopped at the wheels as I knew making them would be involved. My Wife says before I make a Wells Fargo coach I will need to finish the Mack Truck. I have made the truck parts all out of Jarrah as I do have a fair bit stored away. It’s just the wheels being the holdup.
Mr. Procter, i have just took up woodworking as a hobby after 4thback surgery and I have been wanting to make wooden toys for the grandkids, however, I do not have a lathe nor do I have a drill press and to make the tires is rather frustrating. I came across your video and was blown away by how easy you were able to do this. I was wondering if you had any build plans available for the "sled" you are using in the video and if so how many I obtain them? I will be using hand held drill and hile saw to make round discs and need a way tomake the "blank discs" look more like tires. thank you. i live the great detail and explanation you provide I your videos. 👍 👍 😃
I make mine very similarly, but I go a slightly different route after the treads are glued in place. I flatten the inside then glue the two halves together. Before cutting out the large center, I mount them back on the lathe. This allows me to evenly cut the treads on both halves at the same time. When the tire is done I apply black dye. It penetrates better than stain yet leaves it obvious that the tire is made of wood. Thanks for posting your work for everyone to see. I would like to get a copy of the drawing for your tread cutting jig.
awesome jig and skills brian!! I just purchased an old tractor and you have been inspirational to me. I am subscribed and hope to see more of your uploads.
That for the confidence in me. I love old tractors, inexpensive and do the job just as well as a new one, I have a 53 Allis Charmers and the Massey Harris 44 which I restored last spring. The allis charmers is of the same year that my Dad bought new that year, This one that I bought has a front end loader which I use continually for everything, Including setting a rather large christmas tree in the yard and also to get up to put the lights on. That tractor is in some of my video's, I believe the sawmill one. I have 40 acres here in the far north, what kind of tractor did you get?
Brian Procter I picked up a 1970 Case M 570 AT recently and I have started a series of it's restoration. It also has a bit of sentimental value to me as well. I am a woodworker too but however don't have any of those videos, but my channel is in early stages rt now. It's kinda geared towards our homestead at this point. Thank you for your comments and reply. You said Far north? How far. I am in a colder area too.
Located in British Columbia just below the tip of Alaska. Doesn't get real cold here though, but this coming week will get down to minus 15 Centigrade. To day will have to get the tractor going and bring some wood to the house in anticipation.
Thanks, I do a lot of scratchbuilt model but have been trying to figure out tractor tyres since they are hard to come by in something other than the usual die cast scales. Replacement tyres are very expensive if you can find them. I want to make tractors in 1/25.
Hey BRIAN . YOU are a GENIUS. I would be honored to work with you. Thank you for sharing . Do you have a diagram on making this jig of yours for people to build?
Hey Brian, Just love your work and ideas. Would absolutely love to have a plan of your Jig for putting tread on Tractor tyres. Is there any possibility please? I definitely have subscribed to your channel.
This is an amazing job. I have made various wheels, but none looked so good. Since you reshape the tire after cutting out the hole for the hub, what work holding method do you use to keep the wheel centered for these steps?
I used a 3 jaw chuck on a metal lathe, they have removable jaws to hold either on the inside. also can cut on the inside using a boring bar. For toys on making wheels, dowels ect. I find the metal lathe indispensable for allot of things. Like the hubs for those wheels I did them very quickly on the metal lathe. Shaping the tires I did use a wood lathe tool to give freedom of movement. The same can be done on the wood lathe with those four jaw expandable chucks. The range to grip things are limited though. If you know what you want to do you can be very creative about how you do it. |I want to mount a metal lathe chuck on my wood lathe. Good luck on building wheels, The jig to cut the slots are the key to the whole project.

I can't thank you enough for these videos! I have watched multiple times while I attempt to create my own version. Great Job!!

Отличная
Great job showing how to make some tractor tires and will be very helpful for other heavy equipment tires as well.
very nice, as always grate works and grate video
how to you bevel the inside of the tire and and make the rim?

Nice job. You are a master. Congratulations from Brazil.
Thanks, Now I have to get busy and build the tractor part to go with it, been busy on allot of other projects.
Nice job your very talented.
Brilliant thks for the video .
What is the diameter of the tractor tyre
@@aubreyferreira5972 i will have to find it, most likely 3 to 4 inches. I will try. Thank for the interest

Wonderful

Thanks,
Hi sir
Couldn't help but notice. There's a pair of pliers sliding with him and the saw. No kids around. It'll be fine...
