Wow what an artist. In the Great American Desert [Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona etc] wooden spokes [especially light weight spokes] would dry and shrink - loosen and eventually fall apart. One tool cowboys used in the past was water. The loose wagon wheels would be left on the wagon while standing in a pond, creek lake etc. The wagon was pulled to expose all spokes to the water and after a few hours the wheel spokes would tighten. Wet rags could also be tied on the spoke at the rim and rewetting gave the same results. Some of the buggy wheels [especially with thin narrow tires - perhaps iron clad then rubber capped] gave remarkably smooth rides on trails that would shake the innards out of a modern vehicle [but at a much slower pace]. These thin tires slipped past [around rocks and ruts] and the leather straps and springs on the axles worked much like the electronic suspensions on modern supercars except at a much reduced cost and at a repair it in the barn at the blacksmith's rate [25 cents/hour?]. Thanks for this post be safe and conservative.

Hi I here this story alot, same in England the farmer would go to get the haycart on a hot summer's day to bring in the hay and find that the iorn tyres had come loose and the wheels were in danger of falling apart, so he would drive the cart into a pond to wet the wheels and swell the wood. However this is a bad thing to do, and the effect only lasts a day or two, the wheels will soon dry out and then the tyres will be even slacker than before and more damage done to the wheels. Much better is to have the tyres cut and shut , The tyres would be removed and a shortened by about 1/2" then heated and refitted, this had to be done several times during the lifetime of a wheel.

A true work of art! Years ago I set out to make a pair of wooden wheels for a small cart to sell my cinnamon rolls and cheesecakes and documenting myself with countless videos such as those of Mr. Steve I could, although with the limitations that few tools give, making a splendid pair of wheels of wood that are my pride. Thanks to people like Mr. Steve, individuals like me can manage to make things that in other times would have been impossible to do ... Greetings from distant Venezuela.

I live in Lancaster, PA, the Amish couldn't do better. The most complex wooden wheel I saw was a single hub tandom wheel with wooden spokes offset like a bicycle wheel it was only about 18 inches in diameter but could handle 2 tons it was for a lowboy heavy duty work wagon with a team of 4 horses to draw it. And yes, the Amish use all power tools.

Dear Steve, what was amazing was how precisely all the components slipped together. No gaps. I guess the old adage: Measure once, measure twice and measure once again is what gave you a perfect fit. Magnificent craftsmanship. Every piece of the job went through a specific machine with jigs designed for the one job. It would be nice to have the shed space and equipment to set up similar work production schedules to make runs of whatever. All the best and thanks for sharing your craft.

What gets my attention the most is steel bed, the fitting with after there is no retainer to prevent slip. That is a an about science to know the heat/cold expansion and contraction of steel. Then it reminds me how concerned the handlers of such systems must of been with road conditions. I think they adapted slip pins or belts. Excellent video and workmanship, I agree.

I can't believe it. I've actually seen a spoke shave being used on an actual spoke ! The attention to detail is mesmerising, and a complete joy to watch. Do you do courses where you teach people how to do this ? I'm not talking huge wheels like these, but maybe 6 spoke wheels about 2 ft in diameter for use on a toy that people got to make and take away with them. If not..... would you consider it if there was enough call for it please ?

Cutting arcs on the bandsaw: if you have the origin (centre) still on your workpiece, you can put a screw through it, into a board clamped onto the saw table, and use it as a pivot to cut the arc. This can also be done on the actual wheel parts (not just the template), although the setup is a little bit trickier.
@steveibeanthewheelwright5 жыл бұрын
Yes in theory you would think so. However in practice it doesn't work like that. We use the pattern so we can make the best use of the plank avoiding knots and other defects. Stacking the felloes one on top of the other to avoid waste. Also its more accurate to hand cut with the bandsaw blade as in reality however sharp the blade may be the grain of the wood will deviate the course of the blade somewhat and this can be compensated for by slight movements of the hands. The blank your cutting from would have to be very large for you to have the center of the radius to work from.

@vincentrolfe13845 жыл бұрын
So you leave a lip of the steel tire over the surrounding edge of the felloes. That keeps chipping and water away from the wood? I like the outside radius-camber of the metal tire; gives the finished work a certain charm and dynamic. Thanks
