Making a barn lantern, part I

[@samfalzone8271]

I used to do trades relief at Black Creek Pioneer Village where this was videoed ... I knew him ... he was a brilliant craftsman and a great guy. The shop is exactly as I remember it.

I love watching videos like this… I admire the gentleman who is teaching. I just hope that younger people will take the time to learn and pass it on too. There are so many things that have been lost in the past 100 years. Sad. 👍👍👍👍👍🐢

[@plucknpick6414]

Passing it on in a class I am teaching!

[@flowerinherhair8195]

Soooooo beautiful! Absolutely love it ❤🎉

[@design321]

I watched both parts of the process. Fascinating! Thank you for sharing your skill.

[@nicholasnewlin1138]

I'm a young person, and unlike most young people, I greatly admire stuff like this. Well, I'm 24, but still. Very fine work, sir. I'd love to learn tinsmithing. My generation could learn a thing or two.

[@ZacharyBurgard]

Agreed I picked up blacksmith a couple years back

[@Carpenters_Canvas]

Learning why you do something is more important than knowing how to do it thats what I love about your videos

[@rayodelsol80]

Stephen Lee so true!

[@maidindevon]

Thanks, it was a fun watch

[@latinadesigngirl2427]

I love this! Excellent work and thank you for the helpful information. I'm going to research the equipment used to do something similar.

[@CathyCrothers]

I love art history, thank you!

In Sweden (and probably lots of other places) these where known as skirt warmers during the 16th and 17th century. They where used mainly in church during winter and put under the skirt to keep warm during sermon.

[@criticalmass613]

Ha! That's great.

[@MissWobbles]

Wow!

[@nowirehangers2815]

This is very interesting thanks

[@Carpenters_Canvas]

I like you bro , when doing any project you should do research on the history of it so you know why and how this came to be , which you do , I love all “old timers” vids because you guys are hard workers and you do stuff the hard way but most importantly the right way thanks for your public service

[@Carpenters_Canvas]

@@criticalmass613 do not stop my friend sometimes people don't like to put there names out there . They are called silent viewers . Keep it up

[@frankwhite1231]

More videos i enjoy them

[@JamesBrown-vn7bn]

Mr. McGuire, what is the dimensions of the sheet of tin your pattern in on. Is it 12"x18"? Thanks.

[@dustinjenkins1032]

Any idea what size those pattern plates are?

[@silviosouza7694]

Excelente!

Hello! I changed it to 500 likes! I watched this in school today

[@criticalmass613]

Good stuff! Glad you liked it, Mariam. How did you find it?

[@jlgoins64]

Is there a Part 2............

[@criticalmass613]

Yes! Check the KZbin page. Thanks for watching!

[@sarahgilman5911]

what gauge (thickness) is the tin plated steel that you use?

[@youview1327]

But late but probably 0.3 mm if i had to guess.

[@imapseudonym1403]

Thanks for the video. Are you using actual tin, or mild steel? And if you are using tin, where the heck are you getting it?!? Honestly, unless it's in bar form, for solder, the guys at metal shops look at me like I've lost my mind!

[@samellowery]

Bit late but it's usually mild steel coated in tin.

[@emmettford]

This is at This is The Place Heritage Park in Salt Lake Utah.

[@karlschmidt]

It's at Black Creek Pioneer Village in Canada.

[@criticalmass613]

That's cool! Good to see others are embracing the old school trades. That's one of the reasons why I love visiting the USA... you folks embrace your old-time history. It's great.
