They are dear friends to me and the first people to show me how to tyre a wooden wheel at their shop. Greg tirelessly answered my thousand questions. I wear your fleece jacket during our winters in South Africa Mike! All the best to you guys and thank you for sharing your amazing skills as wheelwrights! Philip Roux

Absolutely great video

[@corinnerich9938]

Beautiful video. I'm a banker. I create nothing. I do help others reach their dreams but I don't get the same joy I get from making a simple wooden box. I'd love a trades type of job with a historic connection. Beautiful.

Corinne Rich what's stopping you?

A mortgage?

Still using the 'Great Wheel' you made for me, on my reproduction C17th Joseph Moxon lathe and the kids queue up to turn it at shows. Keep up the good work lads.

Well done, very interesting.

[@saumpferd-landstreicher]

Fantastic, nice video.

Great video!

Shouldn't the tire be fire welded? I'd have thought a mig weld would be too weak to hold.

[@adamlynch4607]

Looked like an arc weld to me. I guess the weld them that way because it's quicker and easier
