So enjoyable to see two talented people making things like this. The obvious respect you have for each other's work is refreshing.

I have never even thought about spurs, ever! What a cool episode.

My Uncle Jimmy is a spur maker out of Cuero, Tx. He has a few spurs in the Chisolm museum there. He makes them with custom engraving and for many years only charged a very modest price. He made them for real working cowboys of which he was one of. But he retired--watching this video reminds me of the true craftsmen of a bygone era (but hope other artisans will pick up on those trades). I proudly have a pair of his spurs hanging on my wall!

Great Basin Oregon, Idaho, Nevada Buckaroos love the fancy stuff :)

just spurred me on to make something in the shop ,thanks!

I never knew or even considered that there were craftsmen that made spurs. Wilson has incredible skills!

What a great person Wilson is. Just a really fine man!

I'm quoting..I can't be more honored to have learned about you Wilson. Hats off!!!!!

Another great episode, but audio cuts out totally between 19:30 and 20:50. Looks like most of it is just working with music, but there's some talk missing at the end.

this is my new favorite youtube series!

Quit leaning on that horse slick😁😁 great episode man!!!

Loved this episode. As an engraver, I love meeting new people and seeing what they create. Everyone has a passion. The proof of it isn't where they punch in, but in the shop they have at home.

Another amazing episode! So proud to call you my uncle, hey uncle Eric it's me Logan, I just wanted to let you know that you and the people you work with on each episode do a FANTASTIC job, such a variety of craftsmanship to make the entire world go round! As for me, I wanted to apologize for not commenting sooner, you do such a great job and I should've really put more effort into talking aloud considering iv been subbed for over 6 months and watched pretty much every video on the channel. I wish the very best for you and the kind people you've worked with over the seasons, and again I couldn't be prouder. Looking forward to seeing who you be working with and working on next, PS my favorite episode is the "clock maker". With sincere love - Logan Rembecki. ♥️

This show is up there with Parts Unknown. Would probably never know about this great skill otherwise.

I wish you could have spent a week making a set of spurs with Wilson.

You should get ahold of a true craftsman gun maker, custom builder of magnificent order! D’arcy Echols, mark brown, mark Bansner…there are a dwindling few..would’ve amazing to see!

Keep doing this channel to remind us of craft that is found in all areas of life. What a legacy!

Thanks, Eric and Wilson. I believe that these episodes will become classics of craft and art for generations of people to enjoy. Excellent work - both of you.

He wrapped craftsman/artist in one sentence. This guy is going to be famous.

You should definitely have more subscribers. You let each artist explain their art then ask the questions that people can truly learn more from. Please keep the content coming!

The spur that you and Wilson made was quite handsome and a stand alone piece of art Congrads TY 4 sharing

You should travel to Woodbury,Kentucky and do a video of Herschel House he makes the most beautiful Kentucky Long rifles

Wilson Capron is a very likable man and a great artist!!

Thanks Eric for featuring Wilson. I follow him on IG and You Tube and thoroughly enjoy seeing his work and the tips he shares even though I will likely never make a bit or spurs.

Stunning craftsmanship.

I'm so glad I came across your channel. I will tell all my "like minded" friends. We all have skills, and like to make nice things. I am a carpenter, my brother is a welder, and he is really artistic with his metal art. I think he would be interested in making some spurs. Being from Texas, we have a great pride in the "old West". I think our country needs to stress the "Trades" more in school. Kids need to know that they can find another path, instead of college, that can lead to a very fulfilling life. Thanks for another great episode!

This video was very enjoyable. There's nothing like hands on crafting. Working with the hands.

It'll be great if you could do an episode with Mike Stinnett of Stinett Sticks ...

Awesome!! I learn to engrave doing western trophy buckles back in the late 70's..it's a big part of my jewerly creationz nowadays!!

I really loved this video. Enjoy all really

Really enjoyed this episode. Love the west and all the gear/stories/lifestyle it represents. Wilson, you are a craftsman and artist, beautiful work.

Heels Down Eric. This was one of your best visits by far. When i was young and still Rodeoing there were many Craftsman we relied on for our sport. I used McCloskey saddles and Smith Brothers and Kings ropes, Tom Balding and Pat Gonzales bits and Olathe Boots, Custom Chaps etc. all my Shoeing tools were hand made by GE and DS and Cliff Carol. Cowboys never mind paying top money for top quality dependable equipment. We have done this long before the word "Bespoke" came into Vogue. Over the years there have been many Cowboys that in their spare time that have done leather work and made saddles and braided horse hair reins and done custom silver work and braided bosals and wrote books and painted and wrote poetry etc. I rodeoed and have been a Gunsmith for 27 years. Wilson is right the Cowboy is often misunderstood and overlooked.

Thanks Eric for another great story about an awesome artist/craftsman……something else to add to your skill set lol 😎

Awesome!!!!! Bridge

Wow! I just love these shows. I look forward to catching up and watching all the ones I've missed.

Really beautiful work. Wow

Always wondered how they were made , it would have been great to see him do some engraving . In any case very cool nothing better then the cowboy way . Happy Trails

Thanks soo much Wilson n Eric!!Spurs look awesome,detail,finish👍😎I've got a few pair of boots,they'd look great on,lol😉 Here's to the West,cowboys,horses,n all the folks out there!!👍👍

Awesome as always!

I love this channel so much

Wilson is the real deal !

Thanks for sharing....Love you and your channel. But what impressed me the most was your tig welding. As a 20yr+ certified union welder, it is easy for me to appreciate someone who knows how to hold a tig torch, strike an arc and lay down a nice bead. Curious to know where you learned to weld?

That was my dream just never found the time with life...tho I did find the time to make one pair. Very impressive work Wilson

What a cool dude and great craftman Ps You got one heck of a cool mustache and long hair partner

Amazing! Loving these vids!

Beautiful work. Beautiful.

Loved this one. Great videos sir.

Keep these coming. Love Em!!!

you make a search for RDR2 at 2am, this is where you still be at 4am.

One of your bests!

I would love a bike designed with all your 1st season and so forth of visited craftmans.

Love the series Eric keep doing cool stuff!

This is awesome! I'm a knife maker but have been thinking about shifting over to spur making since the Knife making community has blown up so after Forged in fire started airing. Kinda became over saturated with ppl wanting to make knives. This has given me the bump I needed to take the shift seriously. Grew up a cowboy and had a bad horse accident and I walked away from it for a long time. I was almost paralyzed. Was a terrifying experience. Again tho awesome work!

Great looking spurs . My favorite rowls are Buffalo Nickels

Wow wow wow so beautiful what a craft! Stunning.. a true artist...this is a piece of your soul like when a singer sings! I would assume this is welding gear yep you mentioned it is.... who watches TV anymore this is the best education ever... super 😎🆒️ I could watch this all day... the Master crafter I just witnessed! To work with this genius so humble! Wilson is a true gentleman 👏 🙌 Thank you!

Rowels are hard to make for an amateur like me! Beautiful Spurs. Nice to see some of the jigs used. Thanks

christoval TX. up the road.

Great video. You need to do one on saddle making.

Amazing work

Beautiful spurs

The video loses sound right at 19:30 mins. Sound comes back at 20:48 mins.

I am learning how to make spurs . Is there any thing that you can help me with ,?Books ect.? Or do I need is seat time. Loved the video. Thankyou Wilson Capron.🤠

please tell me there will be a part 2 for the engraving?

Beautiful work! Are jinglebobs not a thing anymore?

Where do I find the buttons? I need to replace a couple.

I never know what they call it now I do spur

I'm sure miss Chase got a set of them there spiffy custom made spurs from big daddy 😁🐴 and big daddy got a pair for himself 😄 have you ever tried riding your motorcycle with spurs on?

19:30-20:50 Lost audio.

how would a person contact wilson to get information on how much he charges to make a pair of spurs?

👍👍👍👍👍

👍👍👍🏆🏆🏆

Great, now I need to get a horse so I can make myself a set of spurs.

I saw a TV show where the actor wore his spurs upside down. Was that a mistake or is there any reason that it could be done?

I would have done bad things to have learned this kind of work over going to school

I kinda get the impression you taught Wilson more on welding, than you learned in making spurs.

Doing the best he knows how out of a sense of pride instead of just for a wage. Compare that with "F**k it! It's not mine!"

Central Texas is not the plains 😄

What the heck is a "vacuero?"

A traditional blacksmith with a TIG welder...no thanks!!! You can't take a 2k year old craft and try to combine it with modern technology and expect it to pass the scrutiny of a seasoned blacksmith, can't be done! I've smithed for 38yrs on my own and 10 under one of the finest smithys in the state of Nevada, 3 generations from coalfire, to propane and still making the best wrought you'll find....thems pretty spurs!

Ok, seems to be a pattern here. You keep showing well-known people in their crafts. Cliched a bit. Try and find craftspeople that we don't know about.

Rodeo is animal torture.

very different from my great great great grandfathers Boer war Calvary spurs. I wear these as they only prick the horse and don't cut or bruise him. ( I suspect it feels like a ornery deer fly on steroids' to him ) Amazing work none the less.
