watching him work almost makes you sad when you realize whats been lost as a civilization. you sir are an artist. please teach someone what you know.
They should be showing your series in every single grade school across the country to show kids what hard work and perseverance outside of the digital realm can accomplish.
Dear Mater Craftsman, I am from Asia. I am a wood and metal worker and I am 75 now almost all the skills are well known to me that are needed for Surrey building, I wish to make one before I kick the bucket 😂 I watch your videos several times times and I am so grateful 🙏 for the knowledge you share with the rest of the world. Your work is admirable and the skills you have acquired over the passage of time. Some one said:
One who works with hands is a labourer.
One who works with hands and mind is a Craftsman.
One who works with hands, mind and heart is an ARTIST.
YOU ARE AN ARTIST.
SALUTE TO YOU SIR.
Living in the day and age where everyone demands "instant gratification" it's such a pleasure to watch and appreciate this process! Thanks so much for your work and too, for bringing it to a world wide audience.
this just takes your mind off all the darkness all around us at the moment.
Best Post on RUclips, bar none!
I love watching people who are just on a whole other level of skill when doing what they do
All those trades executed to the highest standards of workmanship. And a pleasure to watch. Extraordinary.
And I just am left wondering how he gets those screws to turn in all by themselves! Truly pleasurable.
Totally agree, a real master of his craft. Lets his work do the talking.
Mr Engles you should be a national treasure !
Convertible top, hand stitching, seat upholstery, pin stipes. A buggy for the more affluent of folks of the times. The luxury vehicles of the not so distant past. Nice video. I'll stay with the 20 minute or so videos. If I wished to try doing a build like that I'd watch the 12 hours plus version. I don't have the time nor the skills needed and too old to learn and perfect them all. Watching you build wagons and buggies I can see years of experience.
There are Jacks of All Trades and than there's this guy, A Master of All Trades that's just a incredible piece of work.
A buggy like this is literally priceless. But it is the result of many hours of beautiful craftsmanship.
The "ULTIMATE" furniture mechanic / engineer !
i watch a lot of restoration videos, mostly cars, boats and airplanes but i also like tool restorations and furniture restoration videos..... The borax mule wagon series and this series were the most enjoyable to me.
If you watch carefully you see all the slotted screws facing the same direction and orientation of the square nuts all match. A sign of a true craftsman.
I like that. It was a nice touch.
Standard practice in coachbuilding. In construction the same principle was used so paint had less chance of filling screw slots in door hinges, when slots were horizontal instead of vertical. Now lost to the philips head screw to name one.
bear in mind that sometimes it's more important to have proper equal tension on the fasteners than have them look nice.
@@calinguga Yes, however both can be accomplished.
to some degree yes, by removing material from a countersink, or when one end of the bolt is hidden, and i believe it's especially doable with fine threads and in wood. but you almost never see it in watchmaking for example.
anyway, i have come to appreciate it more since i made the original comment :)
You don't let the history die. great skill!
I am watching these people doing their work. Table saw, router, planer all power tools… Not complaining I use them myself. I try to imagine what it would be like back then, they did everything by hand!!! They were/are most certainly expert craftsman!!!
Ein sehr guter Handwerker Es macht Freude diesem Mann bei seinem Handwerk zuzuschauen.Da sitzt jeder Handgriff und zum Schluß ist alles wieder gebrauchsfertig gemacht.
Es usted un orgullo para su país
Usted es un tesoro.....!!!!!
" your people has to be pround of you....you'r a tresure......!!!!!!!
'Jack of all trades master of none' Yep, I think they got that wrong.
I've watched every one of your videos and am still stunned at the variety and quality of your work.
I'd be happy if I was as good as you in just one of those disciplines.
Gotta remember that the entire idiom is: "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one."
@@Shatteredworld True enough, but like Steve I would gladly argue that Dave Engel is indeed a Master of many trades.
Having mastered a couple of trades I can honestly say that if one puts their mind to something, one can do it to exacting standards. I have no degree in electrical engineering but I am a master locomotive electrician and master cabinet maker. Skills I use every day in my composite locomotive mechanic job. I love this channel because of the high level of finish that I expect from my own workmanship.
I agree Steve Dunford. He is a master of all the trades he uses. I wonder what trades he is a master of that he does not use in the carriage trade? I have a feeling he also does some farming which requires mainlining farming equipment and related barns.
There's also, "Be a jack of all trades, but a master at one."
Every time I see those magic screws it makes me smile! I sure would like a box of those!
I love the magic screws
Now I know what is really meant by "self assembly".
They would be handy when the battery dies in the driver.
Reminds me of Tony Hart and Morph very well animated…hang on my age is showing 😀😅
Thing of beauty
I took my granddaughter to Studebaker museum, been there several times. this time my attention was on wagon wheels and the iron that you work on. thanks for the education at 73 years old
I am constantly amazed at the different trades you show such proficiency in.
I'm really not qualified to properly compliment you on your phenomenal mastery, but I certainly appreciate your showing it. Thanks.
This is a nice little recap, you see things that you missed or forgot and it makes you want to go back and rewatch the series. kind of reminds of those "in the making of" recaps you get at the end of DVDs lol. thanks! i know where my weekend is going :)
Why is it that I know you're the one that did all the work, had all the skill, and knew all the knowledge but strangely I get a sense of accomplishment just being there to watch it all come together? I guess this is admiration in it's true form. Everyone of us appreciates it!
Beautifully stated.
I followed the whole series episode by episode as it came out. But I've just watched this again for pleasure & to refresh my memory. So many skills.
A true master at its craft🌟🐅🇬🇧🌟 the talent is priceless. I would absaloutly love to be this gentleman's helper in the work shop ... For free. A super buggy maker ...🌟🇬🇧🐅🌟
a perfect moving pictograph of the time, the effort, the materials but most important the skills of the artesan. the depth of knowledge and drive for quality is beyond question. the final product lives in the realm of the top quality car bracket attracting prices circling the 500,000 bracket (£or$) so this must be the equivalent to the rolls royce of 'buggys'.
the series has been compulsive, saturdays mornings UK, and a joy to watch day putting out a beautiful product and superb;y watchable videos along the way.
Mr & Mrs Engels the winning team in Jolietm Montana..........
Enjoyed every minute of the whole series. I cannot fathom how one person can acquire so many varied skills. I can see master the iron working and the carpentry, but add to that wheelwright, and upholsterer, painter, and videographer. I give up.
I simply cannot imagine doing a job like this without power tools!
Hasn’t been released long enough to have watched the whole video, and we all so far are just punching ‘Like’, because we know it’ll be ace.
I loved watching again the seat back stitch work. The diamonds and buttons. Loved it
Good grief.. the skillset required. Wonderful execution, thank you for recording these videos.
Dave, I keep forgetting to tell you that I like your choice of music that you use in your videos it coordinates with your work and what you do.
this guy should bee teaching all the skills i have seen him do, it is a lost art and he should pass it on too many generations to come he is so special in his art👌👌👌
I didn't watch this until 2/22/22 but I had to pause it after I saw the time lapse of the screws screwing and the brads hammering. What a great addition to the know how you provide.
Thanks
This is so interesting. I like to see how people made things long before the computers and CNC did take over. And they made things that worked for a very long time. And it worked good for the old things and was beautiful.
My great grandfather started out as a coach builder. After serving his apprentice years he struck out on his own in a small farming community in The Netherlands. Around the turn of the century he realized horse drawn carriages would go the way of the dodo.
In 1907 he auctioned off his shop, tools,templates, wood the lot.
And started anew selling and repairing bicycles, motor bikes and cars.
Watching this video reminds me of all the skills he had to learn while being a young apprentice lad. Impressive.
Thank you!greeting from China!
I'm in awe of this man's ability
Almost watched the whole video before realizing i had seen it before, but it's been a few years since i last watched it. Was Almost like watching it for the first time. Think i learn something new or catch something i missed before, each time i watch. I love the skill, quality, and craftsmanship that goes into each project. This buggy looks amazing. I hope you take pride in your skills and achievements!
I really enjoyed the recap. Something I can share with my friends that wouldn’t have watched all the episodes but would enjoy the 21min version.
Хороший дядька. Живи долго. Будь счаслив.
BEAUTIFUL. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
A "master craftsman" from a bygone era! "Old timer"! You're one of a kind. İ can't imagine what you must charge for a piece of history buggy! Btw...i ain't never seen a table saw with a 'tilt' fence before either. Hooot dang!😜
You are quite the talented individual. I am privileged to watch you work. Thank You.
in Japan they have a title of “National Living Treasure” as an top experts in their field, and pay an apprentice's to learn from them, so that old skills live on… Watched this in AWE.. Magnificent work.. seriously. would love to do that myself..
You are the best and real artist
in your work .
I don't think there is any person
In the world can much you in your skills.
God bless you and your entire family .
You are a life great legend .
Leaves ya speechless! Awesome
I love the old craftsmanship, not a nail gun in sight. Always a pleasure watching skilled hands doing amazing things.
That is a beautiful Buggy. I use to watch and called myself helping my Grandfather do repairs and refinish the seats on his 100+ y/o buggy about 60 years ago. He would hook up old Daisy and we would go to town to the grocery store for my Grandma. Man I think about how things were different back then.
What a absolutely beautiful buggy! 🏜️🌵 🤠 🇺🇲
Thank you for this video. It brings back alot of memories of helping my neighbor build stage coaches/ mud wagons/ and buggies.😊
Absolutely Beautiful!
I am truly looking forward to seeing your next project Chuck wagon.
Fantastic skills, in one man! I don't think any project is beyond his ability.
The whole thing is such a delicate construction. No dimension is any bigger than it absolutely need to be. That for instance the step irons were still attached to the old box after so many years with only three small screws each and almost no leverage is testament to a very optimised design and solid craftsmanship.
This was an excla t series. I looked forward to every video. To say "the buggy is beautiful" wouldn't express its timely magnificence. Thank you.
The burgundy buggy is amazing. And it's all because of that paint. And that is all because of the sanding.
This is beautiful, a real work of art. I loved watching it being built by a real craftsman !
Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it! Unreal! 👍
That buggy is gorgeous
To quote the five year old, "Amazing."
I’ve many words, yet they all fail. Magnificent, well done!
All I can say is, WOW! Incredible.
Stopped by the shop on my way through Montana today... This buggy looks AMAZING through the window!
All I can say is Outstanding project and a beautiful finished buggy.
Stunningly BEAUTIFUL!
That paint job is incredible. The seat brackets look like power coat.
This is the best video I have watched in a very long time, maybe ever. Would love to ride in the wagon.
Thanks for your interest ! Such a pleasure to watch …..except that sanding !! He hee !
It was good to see it again start to finish all in one sitting in addition to and following the extensive detail of the real effort that went into this project. Thank you for sharing and the great video work you do!
It's a lot more fun to watch a buggy restoration than it is to do a buggy restoration.
Far and away my favorite RUclips channel. thank you for Sharing your talent skill and craftsmanship
Just wondering if it's possible to show anything you can't do. Your craftsmanship is simply amazing to watch. Extraordinary.
Dave, it's official. I have finally finished my quest. I have seen every single video. I shared a lot of them. I have learned even more from them. It took for what feels like forever.
A few of them I have watched a few times. Several more I'll go back and watch again. Can't wait to see this Winters projects.
Excellent workmanship in so many trades. So nice to see a master at work.
Your skills simply put Amaze Me
A jack of all trades and master of them all! It's been such a pleasure these past years watching you at your work. From the ponderous Borax wagons to delicately sprung carriages, from sheep wagons to sleds and everything in between -- you have let us into your shop, peer over your shoulder to discover -- or rediscover -- what true craftsmanship is! Thanks, Dave!
I hope your customer is well pleased!
Boba,koca dünyada böyle yetenekli kaç kişi vardır? Maşallah maşallah.
I have a tremendous amount of admiration for the skills you have shown us during this buggy build,thanks for what you do to keep this tradition moving,simpley said OUTSTANDING!
Thanks for the synopsis of this project. I followed it all the way thru its journey before and nice to see it again thanks for doing this again and letting us see the whole thing once more. ECF
In the beginning I guessed you would send the upholstery out to be done.....how wrong I was........stellar work.
BRAVO, DAVE!!!
Very good summary of all that work that went into restoring a worn out buggy into something that looks like it was just unloaded at the train depot yesterday.
A true master of those trades. Excellent work and video.
I have thoroughly enjoyed both the long and the short version of these buggy builds. I really enjoyed the longer version because your details were excellent and for someone wanting to learn how to do this kind of crafting I would suggest watching the complete version of the buggy’s being built. Thanks for sharing this version too Dave. Stay safe and keep having fun with your profession. Fred.🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻✋🏻✋🏻
Beautiful Dave, just beautiful!
Wäre ich 30 Jahre jünger würde ich bei dem Mann in die Lehre gehen. Hut ab, ein echter generalist.
The stop-motion screws at 5:20 were precious. :-)
To you Sir all I can say is... WOW!!!
That was a kool summary of a year of work. thank you.
Truly an amazing exhibition in craftsmanship. Job well done.
Wow, wow, wow! I have 4 to rebuild, and if I get one done, I will be doing great. Excellent work sir.
flat out stunning Mr Engles
In my decling years of old age and ill health Dave is just like a breath of fresh air in my life and very grateful for it.
This man is insanely talented and amazing no amount of money would give me his talent to create things out of wood and other materials he truly is a brilliant man I love this its art
Man, I hope this guy is training some young dude to come along after him and keep this art alive.
Sehr anspruchsvoll und lehrreich, vielen Dank für die Einblicke! Gesundtheit und Wohlergehen Ihnen
I can't think of anything else to say that hasn't been said
Thank you 😊
