How To Make Wooden Wheels With Bicycle Tyres

[@matthiaswandel]

I like the more casual tone of this one

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

as oposed to my normal manic tone? : - )

[@matthiaswandel]

@@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299 Its just more the way you would casually talk to a friend.

[@cooperised]

Of course Matthias watches this channel. One magnificently ingenious mind watching another at work!

[@normanboyes4983]

That was a real pleasure to watch and listen to.😀👍

This is the video that I found you guys from! I remember thinking this guys is nuts... now I'm looking around my farmstead thinking, "I need a railway!" Lowe Ridge Farm

[@ccamen]

Dave Engle, from Engel’s Coach Shop, would be proud.

[@jasonac]

Though I do imagine he would squirm and cringe watching this process as not being quite orthodox.

[@samueldougoud3289]

Wow... both work and video are remarkable. Hats off !🤓

[@SamsWoodCreations]

This was the video that helped me find you all those years ago

[@Mrsstick07]

I never thought I would watch anyone make a wheel, why would I 🤔 For some reason I couldn't watch fast enough. Such a great channel. Thank you. 😊

[@FlyingRivets]

great work as always! your ability to take on such different jobs always amazes me

[@l_szabi]

You've quite literally reinvented the wheel! Nevertheless, beautiful work!

[@mohammedtroy4296]

you are a very skilled man i ranked you number 1 i am a maker also tim

[@nquinn91]

I'm loving these re-uploads, I never saw them the first time!

[@robertbarrett8902]

Absolutely fantastic 😅

[@tracybowling97]

Every time you reupload a video, I think to myself "I thought I'd seen all of the videos." But really I've missed some really great episodes!

[@tnttim1973]

Great looking wheel and the rubber tire I am sure is a great improvement over a steel band. You should sell these. I am sure some people out there may have a use. Also, they make screw on extensions for the air valves for semi truck tires. These can go from 1 inch to 4 inches. Then you can make the valve hole smaller. Keep up the great work.

[@MattBrownbill]

Yeah very good workmanship. +1 on the valve extensions, was thinking the same.

[@Toto-os7lc]

re-upload of this quality is brilliant. Thanks

[@roycarter6235]

That is quite clever...............well done............again. I hope that Covid recovery is progressing.

[@jonnno100]

Thanks Tim.

[@markirish7599]

Beautiful craftsmanship and thanks for sharing

[@paulsharpe3794]

Hi there I just wanted to say what a brilliant way to make a wheel I have a progect to make a 1/4 church bell as a training / recruitment aid

[@BuzbyWuzby]

Genius! Although you can get metal valve extenders, or even make them ;-)

[@gramursowanfaborden5820]

there seems to be a wealth of old videos you've made i had no idea about!

[@Eric-nu3wh]

love your stuff

[@Jimmy_in_Mexico]

What a beautiful practicle wheel. There is no reason not to make these for a slow buggy.

[@white_truck3820]

Thanks Tim! Great project!

[@marekwieckowski7038]

Lovely Job Tim.

[@arty1799]

nice work.

[@DianeD862]

We just love seeing the older ones even if we’ve seen them before my husband loves to see them as well especially what Tim does.GodBless.🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

[@d.jerrycook2994]

nicely done...

[@SoralTheSol]

Pipe on pipe is fine. Just give each a good sanding. The less friction it starts with the longer it will last.

[@mischef18]

Ya wheely good at what you do bro. Cheers for taking us along while you made these. Safe travels up your way

[@frederickmoller]

That is so neat, Tim you are a Master Craftsman in my eyes! Thank so much for two videos in a row!

[@jonjessen]

That's impressive

[@mrstratau6513]

nicely done

[@09conrado]

I like how you found out that you can buy four wheels plus an undercarriage for 50p at the supermarket!

[@ronmartinmhg2804]

They are quite beautiful. A great job.

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

Thank you!

[@Lee-qp6gf]

Love your engineering.

[@richardsolomon8076]

Wicked cool 😎👌

[@jerrydempsey3490]

Tim, you never cease to amaze me. Your ingenuity and skill is wonderful. You make me proud of my Irish heritage. 👍

[@TomS-ce8hi]

Amazing!

[@nealroche1652]

Great work Tim. I never saw this one before. Perhaps they’ll make a nice donkey cart.

Pretty darned cool. Say hello to Will for me, a fellow ex Swallow Boat employee.

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

[@joethompson11]

These are brilliant!

[@lauraandedwardcannon8861]

Actually that sort of bearing was used for many years in the railway business, at least in the states. They had a pad and a box for extra oil, but basically just an upside-down U with a pipe in it.

[@SimonAmazingClarke]

Awesome

[@NicoSmets]

Those wheels are amazing! The pimped out shopping cart in the end also tickles my curiosity.

[@davekimbler2308]

Very nice ! It looks like you’ve made them before ?! Your restrictions are the same as far as the tire is concerned. Without the tires those wheels would be perfect for your locomotive drivers!

[@Not_Dane_Heart]

Soooo useful

[@careychen7275]

Adult tricycle rear wheels are designed to be supported on one side. The hubs can be ordered and you then have to build it in to a wheel. But with ll your tools, resources, and abilities what you made is quite amazing.

[@douglasmaccullagh1267]

This is great, Tim, thank you. How much weight will you wheels be carrying?

[@sergueiothonucci1638]

😃😃

[@diymanable]

You are a very clever little man aren't you. I find myself enjoying your videos quite often. Question did you ever get the doughnut card finished I stumble across the series of 3 videos that you put out on that build would be interested to know what the outcome was

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

It ended up too heavy to be practical : - (

[@cyrildhy8993]

You need a valve extension

[@madsamsamsam]

Love it!! What did you use them on?

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

I made them for a market stall - but that ended up weighing too much to be practical : - (

[@samvalentine3206]

@@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299 - Where are they now, Mr. Tim?

[@neffk]

It's pronounced "fell ee s". That's actually the only thing I know about wheels. Lucky for you, in spite of your pronunciation challenge, you've actually made quite a few wheels.

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

I hadn't heard your pronunciation before so I had to look it up - and we're both right.

[@karllautman]

What are these wheels for? Did I miss it?

[@wayoutwest-workshopstuff6299]

I made them for a market stall, but it ended up too heavy. I have a few ideas though for what else I might use them for though

[@jimallen9442]

Engels coach anyone?

[@eckosters]

In my next life I'm going to be Tim's apprentice (assuming he'll take on someone who has zero tool experience)

[@Falney]

The axel on a bike wheel is typically 8mm while the bore for it is usually 10mm. I know it's only an extra 2mm but some times it is enough. It is certainly enough for a 4 wheeled vehicle that carries my obese, 150kg butt places. Well... The whole of me is 150kg, not just my butt. The real problem comes with the bearings.

[@Piterdeveirs333]

Yeah, I know how dangerous a circular saw can be. When I was in high school the guy the hired to replace the guy they fired in woodshop cut two of his fingers off when we tried to cut a bowling pin in half. Did it right in front of the students too

[@samvalentine3206]

Eeks!

I knew a judge who lost all his fingers in a similar fashion. Locals knew him as Justice Thumbs.
