You speak of repetition, but repetition is still the basis of any manufacturing, even the hand built masterpieces from your shop. I enjoy every minute.
IT SURE IS NICE TO GET TO SEE A REAL CRAFTSMAN AT WORK. YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY ..THAT'S HOW I KNOW I AM SEEING A MASTER CRAFTSMAN AT WORK ..THANK YOU
A suggestion from a 40-years of woodworking retired old fart: A quick tool to cut tenons is the Delta #352 tenoning jig. Made of cast iron and steel plate and slides in your table saw guides. NOT the ones they make available today, as they are junk. The 352 is a heavy work horse. Delta quit manufacturing them many years ago. You would only find them used, maybe on eBay. I have one and would gladly lend it to you to try it out, but alas, I am many miles away. Just a suggestion my friend. Keep up the good work.
Just LOVE THAT TABLE SAW !!!!!! It's the only one like it I've ever seen. I've seen new slider saws and panel saws even way expensive cabinet saws. But that baby is stand alone way cool !!!!!! A routers table is the tool your missing unless you just did not use it. ???? It would have saved a bunch of handling, However I am quite sure you know that..... I am always glad to watch a master work !!!!! Hope some of your information sticks in my head...
Running that router on that low table would kill my back. Always found it a lot easier to get my work up and closer to my shoulders. Anyhow, thanks again for the great videos. Really makes my day when you put out another one.
Dave- You mentioned you are making eight wheels@10 spokes per wheel. This week must have felt like the movie Groundhog Day. The good news is you have enough scrap to heat the shop for a week. Truly enjoyed this week's vlog.
Whoa, kindling for this winter is all done. I like your dust collection for the jointer. Now, what to do with all that mahogany saw dust? You are still the best.... in the shop and at making videos! Thank you!!!
Great video! Loved your jigs. Watching you clean up all that mahogany saw dust made my nose and sinuses burn. I still remember that sensation, almost like a real mild cinnamon smell which burns a little. It has been a number of decades but that is something I expect I will always remember.
In the RUclips channel “Rebuilding Tally Ho” Ep31, at 7:31 shows Leo with a full face respirator. He’s working with Live Oak at the moment but has also had Purple Heart for the keel. The exotic hardwood dust is terrible for causing interstitial lung disease which actually decreases your lung capacity due to scarring: irreversible. Might think about some protection when you’’re using the dust generators, and particularly when cleaning up.
not many people can stand doing something over and over but a job has to be done. i am sure you had your share of repetition. enjoyed this video Mr Engels
Nice editing, great choice of music and as usual, very interesting and entertaining content. Your skills and unhurried demeanour are a great blessing. Thank you so much for sharing your days with us. 👍
Dave I've watched 7 of the Spanish cannon wheel videos this morning, and in one of them I think the covers on the band saw are missing. If I am wrong I'm sorry. I didn't replace mine on a small table saw one morning, and like always I step back and bumped the switch to get the blade set. This time the blade jumped off , and even though I had stepped back the blade hit my right pinky in the large knuckle. I could close my hand but not open so ER here we come 8 am. Well they wanted to call a specialist cause the leader was partly cut. Finally he came and fixed the leader and put 7-8 stitches in my finger. We got home 5:30 pm on my only day off that week. I'm just saying please if I'm right put the covers on, I really don't want to see you hurt. Thanks for listening
Thank you ECS. Everytime i watch i learn something Classes at ECS weekly no sleeping aloud, pee break at your risk of missing something lol. GOD bless.
Repetition is where many shop accidents happen. I always keep it in mind when doing projects like this. You did great camera work and editing, so people didn't get bored. People should take note of the simple jigs for work holding. You don't need to buy them. For large tapered legs, 3" and up, I used the Jointer. But only for small runs. 1 is fun 2 is work.
My grandpap allowed something along those lines. When your mind wanders, so do your fingers. Let your fingers wander in the wrong place and they'll be gone forever. With power equipment and the like there are no second chances or do-overs. You can wind up with a nickname like stumpy or lefty... Love your work.
I love wood shops but in my work shop I recycle the saw dust and make pellets out of them and I use it to heat up my shop in the winter you should look into making a device so you can press it yourself it’s simple all you need is a hydraulic jack and a simple blueprint for a pellet press all it really is a press with a few holes and you can condition the wood so they can bond
love that table saw we had an Oliver 14in sliding table saw where I worked, its an amazing machine and an Oliver pllaner a monster but it did the job. Once again GREAT VIDEOS. If I ever get out of New Jersey Ill take a road trip. All the best!!
That was a tremendous amount of work! I really liked your work holding of the spokes for routing--clever! Neat bandsaw--maybe sometime you can do a vid on some of your tools that have interesting histories? Love to know more about them! Thank you for sharing!
Another very informative video Dave. I can appreciate how methodical you are with every step of your operation. Great detail! It's all about the details!
Thanks for showing us some of the steps in making the wheels. Lots like making drawers for jewelry chests I make or easels for musicians which I have made as well. Nice shop you have there. May have to drive up that way and see it in person (from northern Utah).
@3:59 watching you carefully sawing the line and thinking of all the actions you will take to manufacture the wheels reminds me of my own experiences of working. Often at the end of a job I will put my tools away and as I do so I'm reminded of each action I took and it is often a surprise just how much I have done and how many individual moments add up to a complete piece of work. At the time it seems perfectly timeless and I wonder if you have the same experience. The experience of watching a video can sometimes make the whole task look bigger because I'm looking at the pallet of wood while you are looking at the line to be cut. I also wonder if editing the video takes you back through the labyrinth of your day's actions. Craftsmanship used to be, (still is),intensely personal and private and it's interesting how media opens up the external image of our actions to diverse observation to be viewed by others who will interpret what they see according to their own experiences. Thank you for letting us watch you.
Ya scared me a bit when it looked like you were going to cut the tenons vertically. As always a very interesting video. Thanks and glad to see you swept the floor then blew off the table saw so you could sweep again. Just like I usually do. Ha
Dave. I disagree with that comment you just wrote .I think you are too modest to blow your own trumpet so I will do it for you . You Sir are the brightest bulb in any multi skilled package that I have come across, The quality of work comes first , how you choose to clear up the mess afterwards is of no real importance.
That is an unusual table saw. I can't say I have ever seen a twin bladed saw. Given the sliding table, it looks European. Is it? Anyway, it's real cool to watch your craftsmanship and attention to detail and again, thanks for sharing your work.
Mjolnir Knives yes the do my overhead router came from Scott and sergeant. Problem is a lot of Wadkin dealers want 3 times a machines real worth. Scott and sergeant are some of the better price dealers though.
That must have been hard trying to find the last one of what must have seemed like a never ending pile of wood that ends up being the parts of wagon wheels Thank for another great video. Cheers
3:55 So is basically made no sense for them to preshape the pieces? - I do enjoy your content a lot. Thank you so much for making these videos and sharing your skill and devotion
Watching you cut the felloes on the bandsaw, it occurred to me that both cuts are arcs (sections of a circle) and that it may be worth the effort to build a jig that holds the block and allows it to pivot along the cut line. It would take a bit of work to build, so it would be good to have the length of the arc (radius) adjustable. Great videos, thank you.
If there was no slop in the jig, you may find you can avoid much of the marking out with the stencil?? I'm lazy, I look for the easy way to do any task that has to be repeated.
Hi: I guess everything in the shop now is a somewhat Red from all the sawing and routing of the Mahogany. The four pieces that you could not use, you can mail them to me. They are something I can use. I am guessing that you have already spent a week just preparing the pieces if not two weeks. Good show and thank you for sharing.
Missed a spot. Regular Michelangelo of the wagon wheel..no cattle rustling no Black Bart clean fun good guys always win and repetitive which puts u in a ZEN STATE OF CONCIOUSNESS..may the SAW DUST B WITH YOU...
Aloha, Thank you for sharing. Do you find yourself able to re-use most of your jigs, or having to re-make them for each project? I was wondering about your winter heating fuel, but looking at the cutoff's I don't think that is a problem. I find most interesting your handling and flow of the raw materials. I look forward to each video. I am afraid we are of a dying generation. I look at some of the repairs that come into your shop and think of some of the temporary turned permanent repairs I made as a youth on the farm. The most available repair material being bailing wire, later I was surprised to find there was "real welding rod", I preferred coat hangers as my layout wasn't yet perfected, bur mom kept a close eye on me, they were hard to come by.
Monotonous like factory work! The younger Tubers call this, "Rinse and repeat" which is way overused. After all the milling is complete, the fun part should start soon.
You speak of repetition, but repetition is still the basis of any manufacturing, even the hand built masterpieces from your shop. I enjoy every minute.
Mr. Engels. You have the patience of a saint. That was one whole lot of thicknessing!
THAT is a lot of work. I need a snap just from watching. You do incredible work.
Wow! You got yourself an extreamly efficient sawdust factory.
It makes a pleasant change to watch a craftsman rather than a RUclips "maker".
This is a new series to me,its 2022 great video series
Always a pleasure to watch your videos, and something new to learn from,thank you.
All those years and all those spokes, etc. and you still have all ten, amazing!
Unbelievable amount of work & so many people just have no idea. Great job being so detailed even with repetitive tasks.
IT SURE IS NICE TO GET TO SEE A REAL CRAFTSMAN AT WORK.
YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY ..THAT'S HOW I KNOW I AM SEEING A MASTER CRAFTSMAN AT WORK ..THANK YOU
Hi. Tradesmen of your calibre are a rare find in todays world. Your videos are worthy to be in a museum of lost skills.

Awesome project. Very interesting to watch
Wow, talk about repetitive manual labor. You are the man.
Wow soooooo labour intensive! Amazing!
I love your videos. Please do a video about your table saw. I have never seen one like it.
A job that calls for a methodical approach!
Dave- You mentioned you are making eight wheels@10 spokes per wheel. This week must have felt like the movie Groundhog Day. The good news is you have enough scrap to heat the shop for a week. Truly enjoyed this week's vlog.
What you do is pure magic.
Thank you for all videos you make and upload.
How to stack. “The Stacking Video”. This is a cool project series. Can’t wait to see #3, -4 and so on.
Whoa, kindling for this winter is all done. I like your dust collection for the jointer. Now, what to do with all that mahogany saw dust? You are still the best.... in the shop and at making videos! Thank you!!!

Endless repetition calls for endless patience!
Great work! That's a lot of precise cuts and sawdust. Can't imagine how it might have been 500+ years ago, using only manual tools.
not many people can stand doing something over and over but a job has to be done. i am sure you had your share of repetition. enjoyed this video Mr Engels
to keep big wheels turning is the attention to detail well done buddy!!!!!
Nice editing, great choice of music and as usual, very interesting and entertaining content. Your skills and unhurried demeanour are a great blessing. Thank you so much for sharing your days with us. 👍

Thumbs up and I enjoyed your video!
Good evening to all from SE Louisiana 9 Jan 22.
You're the most efficient worker I've ever seen

Perfection, performance and talent, can’t stop watching.
That was some pretty mahogany. Thanks for the note pad. It arrived yesterday!
Excellant work

Thank you for what you teach us and we manufactures in front of us ...
Both a cross-cut and a ripping blade on that table saw? That's pretty slick! Thank you for another enjoyable video.
Thank you from Illinois! My favorite RUclips channel.
Amazing how much work a highly skilled craftsman can put out, I enjoy watching just to see what i can learn so i can do a better job myself.
Oh, mercy. You hit a new degree of tedium there sir. My Friday evening is complete now. Thank you muchly for the video.
I really love these videos, they are a joy to watch.
great video such a great skill you have
That was a tremendous amount of work! I really liked your work holding of the spokes for routing--clever! Neat bandsaw--maybe sometime you can do a vid on some of your tools that have interesting histories? Love to know more about them! Thank you for sharing!
Lordy, I'm tired after just watching the video . . . that was a TON of milling
Another very informative video Dave. I can appreciate how methodical you are with every step of your operation. Great detail! It's all about the details!
Tedious work. Fascinating as usual.
Perseverance and dedication to ensuring you achieve your best work...priceless...
Hats off to you sir.
These are the best videos! Absolute genius
My favorite rulers have cork strips taped to the back, so they never slip. Leather might work too.
Great channel!
Wonderful as always.
That's just a lot of work! But imagine doing it all with hand tools? It'd take an army of woodworkers.
Bravo...
been in so.fla. fishing past week.will send tools next week. thanks for show.
Thanks Again, Mr. Dave! Sometimes a bit of fixture work pays good dividends!! :-)
that stack of wood sure looks different now then when you got it--great job as usaul love watching the work.
Thank You for sharing your hard work and amazing skills.
About half way through one of those runs, I'd be thinking, did I charge enough for this job?
You're a hard working man.
Thanks for showing us some of the steps in making the wheels. Lots like making drawers for jewelry chests I make or easels for musicians which I have made as well. Nice shop you have there. May have to drive up that way and see it in person (from northern Utah).

Well said. Been there. I hate piecework.
Ya scared me a bit when it looked like you were going to cut the tenons vertically. As always a very interesting video. Thanks and glad to see you swept the floor then blew off the table saw so you could sweep again. Just like I usually do. Ha

You Sir are the brightest bulb in any multi skilled package that I have come across, The quality of work comes first , how you choose to clear up the mess afterwards is of no real importance.
Fab to see how you turn this into mass production... As always interesting to watch
So much hard work.
What a shame there is no "smell-o-vision"! Would love the smell of your shop.
I really like your work flow
Looks like a fence for that bandsaw would be worth gold
That is an unusual table saw. I can't say I have ever seen a twin bladed saw. Given the sliding table, it looks European. Is it?
Anyway, it's real cool to watch your craftsmanship and attention to detail and again, thanks for sharing your work.
Thanks for the information. I used that and found a link to the vintagemachinery.org web site where you posted a few pics and comments.
19:44 - We have the same exact dust collector! :-)
@@EngelsCoachShop I was actually referring to you sweeping the floor... Haha, but taking a second look, that's ingenious!
That sliding table is a lovely set up. Trying to find myself a Wadkin PK over here in England as the table is similar to yours.
Mjolnir Knives yes the do my overhead router came from Scott and sergeant. Problem is a lot of Wadkin dealers want 3 times a machines real worth. Scott and sergeant are some of the better price dealers though.
Solace can be found in a piece of wood that one deems worthy of work. Yes I find solace everyday.....
That must have been hard trying to find the last one of what must have seemed like a never ending pile of wood that ends up being the parts of wagon wheels Thank for another great video. Cheers
Thats a lot of work!!! I hope we will see the assambled cannons, too, ;-)
Great millwork! Thanks for sharing. ....13
That's a lot of sawdust, thank you for the video.

Another great video. I'm a little surprised you haven't made yourself a tenon - cutting jig for the tablesaw.
I watched the advert before the video because your videos are so entertaining that I want you to get something from You Tube.
Hi:

a cyclone dust separator might be a good thing in that shop
Magnum opus!
Come on in to Engels Coach Shop! Huge kindling sale!
Ótimo seus vídeos!!!
if you connected a hose to you dust collector you could vacuum the floor instead of sweeping it
bet your shop smelled real good
Am I the only one who wants to sneak into his shop at night with a Shop Vac and clean up all the sawdust??
Bet it's him playing the guitar as well!!!
Мне нравятся Ваши работы ... ценю Ваш труд и уважаю.
I admire your work. Wouldn't it make it much easier if you had a power feed for the table saw?
That sure looks like some nice lumber they've sent to ya.
I really enjoy watching you work. You do beautiful work. May I ask, what kind of table saw is that?
Missed a spot. Regular Michelangelo of the wagon wheel..no cattle rustling no Black Bart clean fun good guys always win and repetitive which puts u in a ZEN STATE OF CONCIOUSNESS..may the SAW DUST B WITH YOU...

That looks "easy", but processing that much wood is a ton a work, and it takes a lot of experience to do it quickly and accurately
