    I watched this and smiled. You have a very unique way of looking at things and that is a very good thing in itself. I would have never of dreamed of repurposing a bicycle rim in that manner. Good job and great work.

    That is an awesome idea, I have a couple of retired bikes from my kids and need a couple of carts for moving beehive components around the workshop. It is probably simpler to buy a cart but I do like making my own gear.

      God has said in the Quran:
      { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 )
      [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 )
      And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 )
      But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 )
      And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 )
      Quran

    We had metal wheels on our cart. To stop the noise when we collected our messages in Stromness, all we could do at the time was attach old rope we had picked up off the beach. When you say an easy way... I see a lot of hard work, but the end result looks amazing. Thank you for sharing.

      I do wish I might have seen this a few years back when we were commissioned to make a set of wheels for a cannon from 1898. Myself and Russ Radford, now passed took a winter from start to finish. We had very little left of the originals to go from. It was great sport. Once the snow decides to leave I will post a picture or two.

  • @carmelpule6954
    @carmelpule6954 9 років тому

    Well, Sir, I must congratulate you for many issues but mostly about the fact that you realised that when you had the thin metal spokes, the working spokes where those above the shaft and they all worked in TENSION and there were so many of them that while those on top held the load in tension all the rest of the thin metal spokes held the thin rim in a circular shape.
    Now here you go using a thin rim with wooden spokes which work in compression with the lower ones taking the load. Now I admired the manner in which you realised that when the load is taken by two wooden spokes away from the vertical, the rim would not be able to take so much load and it would deform so you put in the in between pieces to retain the shape and use strengtheners to sandwich them ensuring that when the lower wooden spokes are not vertical , the arc in between can take the load as a Bridge.
    Congratulations once again. As far as the" art" goes, you certainly created the right look.

    I know you made this four years or so ago, but something I noticed when you make things, Tim, that I absolutely love you for, is that just like my husband and Me! you get almost done, then realize you've missed a step and have to go back. It is very heartening (is that a word? I hope so!) to know that even really clever people like you make these little mistakes. And you aren't so arrogant that you hide it. So thank you for being just okay like us. And not perfect. It is really great!

      @@WayOutWestx2 My husband is a crane driver, and in that job he has to be pretty careful and can't miss any steps, but when we are working on jobs at home, that is a different story! I spend my days scouring fleece, dyeing it and then spinning it. I am disabled and can't get about very well, but thankfully spinning doesn't take any walking! Just the other day, I put all the fibre in to soak and realized 20 minutes in I had forgotten to add the synthrapol to help the dye bind. So I had to add it and then add another 20 minutes to the soak time just to make sure. Many's the time we have finished a job, got all the screws in, then realized we forgot the washers and have to take it all apart. It always made me feel a bit inept, but you have made me realize it is okay, because lots of people are like us, and I think it just means that we have very busy minds that are always thinking! Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. All kidding aside, I love your videos and the way you just make what you need. Thing is, you have to have a very clever mind to consider all the different parts of the machines you make, (the bandsaw, for example) to get the job done without blowing yourself up. I really do think you and Sandra are quite amazing people and I wish you much success. Take care.
