  • The complete process of building a chuck wagon box from scratch. It is placed on an original, restored undercarriage, also viewable in the synoptic playlist. I build and restore horse drawn vehicles, with wheelwright, blacksmith, upholstery, painting and striping demonstrated. I focus on traditional carriages, wagons, coaches and buggies.

    At 77, I'm not very likely to go into the carriage trade, but for some reason I really enjoy watching these projects come together. Keep up the good work.

      @Quickquiver These projects are to demonstrate how a wagon was fabricated and assembled decades ago. Have you been in his shop and observed his work close up? I have, you are wrong. Oh, did you know latex paint was developed in the early 1940’s?

  • @pebrede
    @pebrede 2 года назад +8

    A job well done, thank you.
    If I might suggest, an interesting addition to the videos might be a clock or calendar of days showing the hours, days weeks and months these projects absorb so that people can appreciate that your time is precious and it doesn’t take a few hours to collect the materials, rework and kit up the parts and pieces before the fastidious assembly even begins.
    I for one appreciate the archive of your knowledge that you have created.
    Take care.

    Mr. Engals,
    You are without a doubt a true craftsman in every sense of the word. I truly believe you have a great passion for the craft you do. I've heard you say it took several years of trials to get each one right. I am amazed at the way you seem to move thru the cut, glue. Drill. Align, stain, make new wood look old and the assembly. There isn't a car manufacture that can make cars with better seams and fittings. God Bless you my friend. You inspire me with my project. My 1860 Newton which I lovingly refer to as FIGGY.
    Thank you for all you show and share. I truly love watching you work.

    @haroldhaugaard410 2 года назад +2

    I am not trying to compare myself to Mr. Engles, just trying to show a little of my back round.
    I was a Union Sheet Metal helper in 1962, and over the next 5 years I went to night school for sheet metal and I became a mechanic and welder.
    Over the years I honed my skills and finished my career in 2006 as a Designer, fabricator, sketcher and superintendent for what was one of the largest sheet metal companies in N.J. at that time.
    When I retired I started working with wood and love it.
    I say all this so that I can speak from a position of knowledge when I say that I am very impressed with Mr. Engles skills.
    I love his videos, thank you so much.

    As high as prices are with horseless carriages now days, a covered wagon sounds better by the day. Don't think the wife would like the bumpy ride and open air for air conditioning. Winters would be tough! Hay burners and vet bills maybe the decision point going this route. As always thanks for sharing. Ken

    Impressive. My mind kept imagining the various steps to complete the wagon to the days before electricity and power tools. How hard life must have been for those folks and the contributions they made to our present societies. Thinking on that, I sometimes wonder if the world is really better off now. Having been a cook in my past years I thought about the ones that cooked the food to feed the people on trail drives and was reminded of western bound wagon trains and the likes in movies and TV shows. Great video and work on that Chuck Wagon. Many talents in one.
