As a wheelwright I get to work on the good, the bad, and the ugly. This week's wheel repair is a static display stagecoach wheel that has been setting outside for too many years. This wheel is not on a stagecoach that is operated, but only used as a backdrop for pictures. So even though the finish isn't high quality, the challenge is to use what is remaining, without adding expenses that are beyond the scope of the intended use of this wheel.
In response to a number of requests for the tools and supplies I use here in the shop, I have compiled a list as an Amazon Associate. Perhaps this list will be of service to you as viewers, as well as provide a means to help support this channel.
