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.

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
Words like, Poetry, Beautiful, Wonderful, Simple, Fantastic spring to mind, they go no further than that because I am speechless.
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.
The last part of this video was riveting. I will never tire of watching it.
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!

Чудово!!!!
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.
Dear Mr. Engel, if you ever planned a Christmas Special, this is it! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Germany.
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.
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.🙂🙂
😄
Haha, Wally and the Beaver had a good use for those. Just ask Lumpy's dad.
Best regards from Indiana.
Naturally rounded-worn tire edges are very lovely.
If I come out and help can I get one?? I’ll sweep up😁. Nice job!👍
I LIKE it!!! Nice!! Thanks D & D!!
Magic! Nothing gets thrown away; there's a re-use for practically everything!
You are a very talented man! God bless.
A great way of re using old materials!
You could make a stack of those wood holders, and sell them in hardware stores, and home improvement centers.
Stamp Engels Coach Shop on them and it would be pretty sweet to have one.. i would buy one in a second!
It's always interesting to make the first one, when series production sets in, it usually changes to being a chore.
I would buy one
Problem is, this is a quality heirloom grade piece, and everyone wants to pay walmart chinese made prices.
@@JohnDoe-bd5sz yup there's my problem too... I'm great at design and build then I loose interest in just turning out widgets.. I appreciate one offs,, unique.. Like all the instruments I have made for film.
Thanks for that! I use the wrought for knives, (cladding). This is another great way to “upcycle” the heritage items in our lives.
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!
Merry Christmas my friend... Now there is a thing that Works...If I had a wood stove, or a cabin to go with that...Then I would ask you to make me one also. My very best for you and yours. Jim
I loved the 10 inches, roughly!
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
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.
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.
reminder-keep flammables 3' from stove , nice woodstove accessory, Dave
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!
Love the final leveling adjustment being carried out with a ball peen hammer.
Congratulations on your idea of recycling rims for wagon wheels. Greetings to you and your wife from the city of Catania
if only I had old wagon tires and a blacksmith's station... it would be a good idea for weekend housework ;)
It's a beautiful thing! Give up wagon wrangling and go full-time on firewood holders!
This construction made me smile from beginning to end. What beautiful and functional piece of art. Thanks, for sharing.
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...
Greetings from Germany.... Just now watching one of your episodes that I some how missed along the way... 'Better late than never' I supose...
In the light of our Christmas season the idea to have a couple of your stands on display in your new Gift Shop maybe have an old wood stove with one of your fire wood stands. Consider throughout the year ... when spare time allows that is... fabricate a few for selling in your gift shop.
Wishing you, family and friends a blessed Christmas... For He truly is 'The Reason for The Season...' Amen
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.
Always good to see some blacksmithing!
Beautiful and it will last another 100 years!
Elegant and simple repurposing. Beautiful!
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!
Reduce, re-use, re-cycle...... Purrrrrrfect ! ! !
If only I had wagon tires,, nice work And a fireplace
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.
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.
Great blacksmithing project!
What a beautiful piece of work! That's what I call recycling... 🤠🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵
A real pleasure watching a True Master of his craft.
Nice Dave. Looks like you have a little inventory, maybe market those, they look great. Keep on smiling.
Thanks Dave. Merry Christmas to your familly and community
Buenas noches.
Usted es un artista y hace arte con sus hábiles manos, ¡Felicidades!
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.
Nice use for old wagon tires.
That looks like a Buck stove.
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.
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.
Wow! How cool is that Dave way to go
You are not allowed to retire Dave! I've grown to love your erudite drawl. Creativity personified.
You should make a custom stamp. A stylized "D.E." or maybe "Engel" that you could stamp into metal projects like that. Somewhere inconspicuous, but so your master craftsmanship will be verifiable long after you have swung your last hammer. You could heat up the stamp and use it to burn the same mark into wood projects too! Just a thought!
Reheating a hot stamp is counterproductive. Make 2.... one to heat for branding, one to stamp in red hot material.
@@stevesyncox9893 Good point Steve! 👍😁👍
I hope you make one of those firewood holders for your museum.
My reserve is under the stove, so... But very interesting lesson about how to do this work! Thanks!🙏🧡💚
Your videos totally bring back memories! Did you ever work with Dallas Stoller J Diamond Carriage Shop in Rupert Idaho? He was my neighbor and i would be out it the shop "helping" when i was a kid lol. Then when i was older i would help him heat and shrink tires onto wheels. When i was in high school working at a machine shop i made a hydraulic brake set up for the front axle of his mud wagon! Anyway thank you for the fond memories!
Cool! Dave doesn't remember him.
You are simply amazing. Nice job shaping the metal for the wood holder. Stay safe.
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.
Wonderful firewood holder you made. Great and thanks for showing us.
Beautiful work, Dave!
Wish I had an old hand forge and an anvil. Nothing is scrap when you have those two tools.
Boy, this makes me realize a bunch of the material I scavenged off a old home built round bale feeder might not be leaf springs, but chunks of wagon wheel tires. Going to have to look closer. Probably saved me some frustration wondering why it wouldn’t harden like leaf spring later!
Stay safe and we'll see you next week.
Nice! And sweet move with the hammer flip when banging those rivets. So smooth I almost didn't realize it happened. 😎
Definitely a cowboy way of using what you got on hand. I was happy to see you did it with rivits...I enjoy watching your hammer work on the anvil.
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
I bet this man could build Noah's ark for the one and only. Such a great man at work with so many skills.
wow Mr Engels what a beautiful Idea. looks awesome next to the fire place
I have came to see that Dave Engles is a master.
Great job.
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. 😊
Beautiful wood rack. Great that you riveted the pieces...a wonderful attribute.
Pretty cool little project.
I'd buy one if it was for sale, great idea.
Love to watch you work the Iron....
Thanks, Dave

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.
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
That is cool, what a great idea.
super cool idea! Genius at work!!!!!
Amazing job Dave, you’re a true magician 😁😁
Love them log holders, ❤️ . Mike.
Outstanding job once again Dave! Put them on the market! I'd buy one.
Hi Dave. The on-camera talking with your good microphone is a real bonus I think. Another great video. Thank you.
Well done!
Good job and I bet it sold for a good price as well. As always, Thanks for another great video.
Functional and pretty good looking too. Here's wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas.
I'm sure you'd be busy just making these if you did that for everyone who's asked since this video came out but man, I'd love to have one of them!
Making sure to get it just right was satisfying.
Being new to the channel in the last year, you had me scared for a second with those nuts and bolts!
DAVE, GREAT VIDEO, TELL ALL HELLO, SEE YOU WHEN...
Awesome trash to treasure Dave. That's a great firewood rack you made is such a short order and worth a grate deal too. Thanks for sharing with us while making a thing of beauty for a purpose. Stay safe and Happy Holidays to you all. Fred.
Grate comment !
@@TonyWhite22351 I saw that too! :)
I've found when spraying paint especially from a can its best to have some cardboard behind while applying so it rebounds not just blow past that's wasteful. Indeed its covers better because much of what's sprayed isn't lost and at a slight angle more lands on the material like a wind brake. The siloquette it leaves also lets you know what's not missed especially when the paint and what its applied to are close in color like black over red rust-primer.
I watch this craftsman at work and feel inadequate 😢…another great watch ..👍👍
Dave, You should offer these and more on a website store! Jim
That is a pretty cool repurpose project and its big enough to hold a days worth of lumber.
Looks like you've got a 'product Line' there. Great stuff, as always.
Dave, you are one handy son of a gun. I like your firewood holder, gives me ideas.
