I've an old German goat wagon in want of repairs. I found it in the crawl space on the house when bought 27 years ago but left it alone. I'll be repairing it now having been encouraged by these videos, just taking my time and getting it right. - Richmond VA.

Dave's version of "Hey Dave can you fix my flat tire! I'm broke down"!. This kinds makes all the tubes I replaced in tires years ago look awfull simple now!. Thanks for another great video and lesson Dave. and thanks for shairing

A friend in need is a friend indeed. You get some angel wings for helping this friend.

You built a wagon wheel faster than tire shops can change one tire. Amazing, well done sir!

Now that is one happy customer, well done! Your ability to repair that wheel from stock you had on hand and to just do it like you did tells us all we need to know about what a master wheelwright you are! Cheers from Tokyo

This gentleman is soooo amazing,i can watch his videos all day long,art put together..!

Reminds me of back in the day when the wagon trains were running. I wonder how many towns were first settled because someone busted up their wagon real good and decided it was time to just give up and stay right where they were!

Unbelievable - it looks so easy and effortless.

It was for Dave but me , you that's another story

This is what I love about the people of the west; no matter how busy the day is, if a guy is in a pinch. They are always glad to stop what they are doing and pitch in to get them out of a tight spot. Moreover, the guy help out is truly appreciative of the work done. Hats off to both of you gentlemen!

Randy, may be hard to believe but I've been to Red Bud. In the late 1970's I worked for a company who built some of the first Hog confinements. We built one just out side of Red Bud. My family originally came from a town about 70 miles west of you as a crow flies. Called Sullivan MO. If I make the trip I will look you up. LoL

Dave....like I said a few months ago, I always hit the Like Button before I even start to watch your videos. I am That sure you will give me the best experience you are able to and that has always been top notch for me. You have not disappointed a single time. Keep up the great work. Thanks again for showing us your correct method for building a wagons and wheels with all your custom tools and rigs and set-ups.... You are one of the best in my Book. Can't wait t see more ..... Russ

There's near enough; close; almost there; then there is Dave - perfect, every time.

My Friday is complete now. Seeing how you postponed your plans, stepped up, and fixed that wheel reminds me of service when I was in the business. Take care of the customer's needs, with courtesy and professionalism. We are a different generation, you and I, to many in today's world. God bless you always!

old school work ethic to be sure!!!

In this day of electronics gadgets and computers, there is something very satisfying about watching a craftsman create something out of wood with his hands and basic power tools.

Great to watch a real craftsman at work.

Hello Dave , l'm down here in Australia and have just discovered your u-tube posts . Absolutely amazing work mate . You are an artist all the best .

He was sure lucky it happened near your location. My luck I’d be on the east coast somewhere and nowhere near ya when I snapped a wheel. Lol That’s awesome.

There was great old time honor and dignity in this, things we don't see much any more. We've lost a lot somewhere along the way. That man was lucky! That wagon was his ride. And it's not like he could call the Auto Club for a tow truck! They wouldn't know what to do!

Rare demonstration of real craftsmanship, so cool to watch an expert working.

Puts a whole new slant on 'getting a tyre (tire) fixed'😂😂😂 Fabulous as usual Dave! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

I hope you have an apprentice. Those skills must be passed on. Hopefully that person will be every bit the artist you are. Great video, Thank you.

A true craftsman at work.

So who was yhe fool who didn't tie the wagon down properly in the first place? It begs belief the lack of care taken sometimes, "it'll be fine , it's just round the corner" has seen the loss or damage of so many items. The repair was classic workmanship and beautiful to watch, well done sir.👍

Mr Engles,we took a picture of (husban's brain,Wife's brain) photo.So funny and it states it all,Godspeed goodman!

Oops... They say the wheels on the bus go round and round- have they forgotten that wheels on the wagon went round and round FIRST. Thanks Dave for another wonderful build and video to document the process along the way.

Mr. Engels, my hat is off to you, such an artist in what you do, you took a difficult job and put it the music of hammer, forge, and knowledge. I thank you for your dedication to a job well done.

I second that.

I really enjoyed this video. I used to repair furniture and sometimes customers would stop by and ask for a repair or some obsolete part. I was always a bit nervous repairing their furniture with them looking over my shoulder so to speak but I did a good job and thanked them for choosing our company. They didn't have to say anything to let us know that it made their day and I can see that same feeling in that man while you were finishing up. That made this repair all the better. Thank you for sharing what you do with us!

Boy oh boy do I know that feeling! That’s when you just be yourself and put on a happy face and get the job done. Most times the customers are super great full and happy to be going again. I’ve got a fab shop at a major race track and when people are racing they want it now!

Every time i look you have when another 10,000 subscribers here to reaching a 100,000 in no time. Very well done on the repair of the wagon wheel. KZread advertising pays of.

It is good to know such craftsmen still exist in this world.

You can bet that I’ll be tuning in every Friday by 4:01 CDT, and if I ever get within 500 miles of your shop again, I’ll be dropping by. Your work is very interesting to me, I’ll be making my first wheel this winter, mostly for decorative purposes, although I may incorporate some into outdoor chairs or other projects. By the way, I’m now on permanent vacation.

MR Engels, I would just like to say with all the, sorry but crap that is on youtube and people that pretend to be craftsman/carpenters you are the real McCoy. YOU ARE A TRUE CRAFTSMAN... and very humble about your skills. I have a couple of hubs I would like you to have. It would break my heart to see them in a scrap pile. Thanks

How embarrassing! I bet that wagon gets lashed down a whole lot better in the future. Thanks for taking the time to document the emergency repairs.

I haul my antique tractor which wieghs 6 to 7k and it used to get 2 chains v shaped holding it down before i put the loader on. Now it gets a 4 point. I have had chains get a little sloppy but never move. I hope nothing got hurt beside the guys pride and the wheel and hopefully learned an important lesson on proper securement.

I really like to watch you repair old wagons it is interesting how those craftsmen did such fine work with what they had to work with . I have worked on stagecoaches and it never ceases to amaze me how they build the wooden bodies . I worked with JW Brown in Weatherford Texas on his coaches and enjoyed it very much , he has passed away several years ago .

A master craftsman. When those wagon trains went West in the old days, they must have had wheelwrights like this to accompany them.

Wheels While You Wait. Tremendous job on this piece, man could not believe you actually repaired it for him & in style too. I was also. Thank you for bringing us along on this repair 😊

Well you have to take the work when it comes in, it is better than when the work does not come in at all. Another awesome job wheel better than before. One of the best craftsmen on the world.

I thought you were kidding about the “while I wait”, but you weren’t! You are indeed an artist. 😉

Ah!Those Speedy Hammer Strikes.. Always enjoyed..

You never fail to amaze me. Your skill and attitude is right out of the nineteenth century. If there were more folks like you this would be a better world. You are a true artist and your knowledge is astounding.

Amazing to see the tools, equipment, methods and skill as it becomes a piece. Interesting to see the modern tools speed and ease the fabrication. I've seen them use drag sticks in place of a broken wheel.

To be such a rare skill type and still be willing and able to perform this level of service for a customer is top shelf. If I'm ever that way (North Idaho here) I'll be seeing if I can stop and shake your hand.

Seeing the work progressing at an even, careful and nice pace makes what appears as easy and without trouble reveal itself as careful and skillful attention to details and a fair amount of knowledge, the marks of a true craftsman. As always, a pleasure to see these videos.

Wagon wheel repair while you wait.... Unbelievable!👍🏻👍🏻

a wheel is a wheel is a wheel is........ not just any old wheel !!!!!!!! good stuff dave !!

I am just seeing this video now but I guess this the equivalent to repairing a flat tire 1800's style. We sure do have it easy today! Thanks Dave for the videos.

I truly enjoy watching your videos. You style, similar to that of Mr. Chickadee's channel, to to teach by showing rather than telling. You are truly a master of your craft. I've learned quite a lot from your videos, and I hope you will continue to make videos for your channel.

I love that drill press giant pencil sharpener taperer thingy. You do incredible work. A real pleasure to watch. 👍

Great to see a tradition like this still being practiced... God bless brother, never let it die!

Only possible with the unbounded talent of a true master craftsman.

I don't even own a farm or a wagon but I enjoy watching these videos

Not your typical "git er dun" job. The fortune of having you available cannot be underestimated. Great video as always. Thanks for Sharing

There is customer service ‼️‼️ I enjoy your videos very much. Thanks.

He left your shop like a kid with pockets full of candy 😂 Amazing job 👌👌

You never cease to amaze me! Who'da thunk you got all that done in 20 minutes oh wow! Really, that is as good as brand new. I've been in tire shops that don't do that good with car tires or truck tires let alone a Wagon Wheel-outstanding!.!.!

@@EngelsCoachShop I've been to at least 20 or more of the Cheyenne Frontier Days parades over the years. I actually know what I'm looking at when the wagons pass, including my favorite Yellowstone coaches, from watching your weekly videos. Perhaps a bit critical when I see something in poor repair now. Have a great week.

A lot of people are commenting about his talking all the time, and not tying the wagon down. Well everyone makes mistakes and you can bet it will not happen again to him. His job is cooking at cook offs and everyone wants to stand around and talk and talk. You could see the talk didn't break Dave's concentration, he knows what he doing and listening doesn't bother a true craftsman. He is so modest it seems like it embarrasses him to hear these things being said. I found Dave in the wheel turning for the water wagon build then back to the wagon build. I have watched him in 8-10 others videos and each time it shows and proves to me just the type of craftsman he is. His low music and the way he sets the camera make his videos better than most. Did anyone notice the Yeti, the best way to keep your drink cold while waiting for tire repair on the trail. Thanks for listening, Stay safe

Thank you, Mr Dave, for making the day that we look at your channel happy. It is the gentleman who has been able to take the road with confidence. Greetings from Catania

Beautiful work, it's an honour to watch a master at work. Love your videos, no crappy modern music blaring away in the background.

My thoughts are at one time there were wagon repair shops everywhere...amazing work.

Northwood Acres Yes Dr Dave at your service. Thank you and come back

We have a junk yard near us named The Broken Wheel. It never made sense to me since wheels don't normally "break". After watching some older western movies and shows, I realised how the name may have come about - those wheels broke.

Amazing work as usual Dave. Having repair parts available sure helps, but making everything match in a short period of time. Just amazing. Thanks very much for sharing.

In an odd way, I feel kinda jealous of Rich Herman. He got to spend a day or so in Dave Engels' company, and get his wheel repaired right in front of him! Dave you're a right remarkable fellow, and I'm sure I speak for many others here, when I say I can only wish to spend some time in your shop with you, and have my own touch with greatness!

Well that puts a whole new meaning to ‘while you wait puncture repair’!

Watching 'horse operas' since the 1950s, I will never see them the same now that I know what goes into the making of the wagons that are in films. Imagine the army of wagon builders back then and everything was done with hand tools! Dedicated craftsmanship for sure. We are so accustomed to ordering everything online through Amazon and the like that we don't stop to realize the work that went in these items in the video. Want your wagon wheels recapped with new irons? Come back in about a week or so. Back then, we said 'ok,' today we throw a hissy if not finished in an hour.

Fairly involved to get er dun all in one time frame. Darn near a complete new wheel once completed. Very accommodating shop for the needs for the customer.

That was an incredible amount of work to do, as a favor, and as an emergency job. You have patience beyond most. Well done man, you are an artist.

Dave Engel's, The Les Schwab of wooden wheels. Great job on repairing the wheel .

Another happy customer!! You make it look so easy.

This never get old.....

A man would be lucky to find himself in a job like that, awesome work!

Me encantaría visitar su taller, verlo trabajar y disfrutar de sus hábiles y expertas manos. ¡Felicidades!

What a wonderful man, a True Craftsman!!

What beautiful mountain rangers in your opening video breath taking

every video you make just amazes me how you can fix all these wheels as i have said before you are a true craftman and it will be a dieing art that will be lost in the future

Dave I feel your eye is more accurate that my digital calipers.

Mr Herman is an extremely lucky man to be able to have you and your skills and talents to rebuild his wheel. My hat is off to you.

Rich is very fortunate to have you as a friend and once again your craftsmen ship is incredible. Your a very talented man but a band saw with no wheel guards makes you a lucky mana also! Keep em coming GOD BLESS!

You are a real hero! I am a 20 years old boy from the Netherlands and watch you for a wild now, and still love it

Truly a gift from GOD!

This video just goes to show why you are considered to be one of the best at what you do.

NOW THAT'S HOW THEY REPAIRED WHEELS ...WOW AND I THOUGHT A BIG HAMMER AND A COUPLE OF BARS WAS A JOB.I GUESS IT IS ALL RELATIVE ,TO YOUR TIME/ERA.. AWESOME AS ALWAYS.. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

The predicament faced in today's video called to mind a story from my heritage. My paternal grandparents were first generation Americans born of Irish immigrants who came here in the mid 1800's. One set of these great-grandparents was traveling from County Clare to the port of Limerick when a wheel of the cart hauling their luggage broke. The first leg of their journey was delayed while the wheel was repaired. When they finally arrived at the port, their ship had sailed so they took the next available. On arriving at New York, they learned the ship they were originally due to take sank with the loss of all aboard. But for a broken cart wheel, 25% of my DNA would never have made it!!

Like Rich said, You are amazing. One of these days, I'll get to Frontier Days. I the fourteen years I've been in Cody, I've never been, and don't know why. Thank you for another great video.

A lost art that is so well displayed.

Enjoyed the video Mr Engel. That was something. It was like the gentleman blew out a wheel on his wagon and went to the local wheel repair shop and you fixed him up. Thank you and y'all take care and God bless.

How ,long was the repair in real time, if you don't mind sharing that.Great craftsmanship as usual.

I am really in awe of your talent and knowledge

I don't mean to piss in your pocket, but that repair was absolutely superb!!! Well done, KUDOS! Thanks for sharing this!

Excellent Service with a first class repair. If that was a typical modern factory that has to abide by over the top health and safety rules, ( In case a person might not have the sense to keep clear of moving machinery etc) that customer would have had to wait in a waiting room complete with high viz jacket and safety glasses.

Not all heroes wear capes. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Wheels Done While You Wait. Truly impressive!!!
