Thanks again for sharing your skills. It's also good to see how your video skills have improved too - knowing what to show in detail, what to summarise and where you can skip some of the repetitive processes. Looking forward to the next instalment.
He does so many things that underscore how expert of a craftsman he really is. He and Mr. Engles are two amazing people; it seems fitting to me that they're in-laws.
You are such a masters. Thank you for sharing this beautiful project with us. I worked in a funeral home and we had a coach for parades, back in 1967 in Rawlins Wyoming..
You and Dave are by far my two most favorite craftsman channels. Thanks for making us smarter in your craft as it's very enjoyable to watch you bring the ugly back to beautiful.
Rick, I can see you enjoying sweating pipes together when plumbing.... You continue to amaze me with your craftsmanship and patience. Keep up the great work!
Rick: I got totally caught up in what you were doing and all of a sudden you said “and thanks for watching”! 😖 Over way too soon. The sign of a great video! Love it! Steve A.
WOW that was the fastest 24 minutes in my life. You showed us so much of your knowledge, skills and abilities in such a short time. Those flanges are looking outstanding. Your craftsmanship in so many different fields in incredible. Me, I can't make a decent solder joint if my life depended on it and you make it look so easy. Looking forward to the follow up videos as I know those lamps will be stunning
Looks like from the disassembly, that there were numerous repairs, and modifications done on these lamps over the years. Some of that soldering you removed was terrible, and so ugly. Can't wait until the rebuild starts.
The lamps certainly were built to last. They appear rugged yet attractive. Also noticed the nice shirt you wore. Rugged yet attractive. ha What brand is it?
Back in the 80's, and 90's I built Jaguar cars, Series 3, XJ40, XJS, XK8. I often wonder all these years later if any of those cars I worked on are still on the road. Rick, do you ever wonder if a craftsman in say 50-100 years will be refurbishing the lanterns that pass though your hands?
Do you wear a respirator when soldering Rick? I recently had to get a blood test to check my lead levels. I have been handling lead and soldering daily, in my job as a stained glass artist for over 26 years. Here in Australia the government can legally remove you from your work if the lead levels exceed a certain level. Thanks to respirator and working in well ventilated garage my lead levels actually fell.
I usually have a fan running to carry the fumes away but I have to admit that sometimes I get involved with what I'm doing and forget. Blood test have never shown unacceptable levels though.

I agree
Thank you for the videos . You show a skill set that's almost extinct . The intricacies of manufacture is amazing . Thank you .

Thank you for the latest video, stay safe and well 👍🏴
Thanks for sharing the process on these lamps. By the way, the penguin behind the grinder is dusty! :)
First video and a new sub. One observation is that, Rick has really nice hands for a craftsman. Cheers!
Your skill is awesome,
Thanks Rick
Great job Rick! Thank you!!
Looking forward to the end result!
Thanks Rick 😊
Outstanding workmanship, outstanding dexterity, outstanding camerawork, could with a bit more closeups pls, ty
Thanks for sharing!
I wonder if the occupants of the building know they have hearse lamps installed (assuming it’s not a mortuary)? Thanks for the video!
These lamps have been in the family for several decades. Thanks for watching.

Красиво получается!.🙂
Loved this video, Rick. Thank you again. Please see my comment on the first video about these carriage lamps where I describe a bit of their history.
Thank you Jonathan!

That is a possibility. I sometimes wonder what they would think.
Dave, Are you running propane with an oxygen concentrator in your torch?

Hiya Rick
😍🤝✌❤Meister
Is the stop on your foot shear too cumbersome to use for so few parts?
It takes longer to set the gauge than to just measure and cut for just a few cuts.
Is Dave Engel your brother??
Brothers in law.
@@TheLuminaryShoppe Ohh wow, you sound and act and work just like each other. Youre both true craftsmen!
@@TheLuminaryShoppe was being a lil sarcastic, and wasnt far off lol
Wow this is niche
So I guess the lamps died since their hearse lamps?
