- I make Spoked Steel Wheels in an Industrial Style, using Rebar for the Spokes. I love anything industrial and if it has rebar in it then it is even better, and this project is one of my favorites, maybe because of the bit where I bend the flat bar into rings, using just a hammer, I have done this before, but I have never tried to video it before.
It was a fun rebar project to make and I hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.
The wheels are 215mm (8.5 inches) High, the flat bar is 6mm thick (1/4 inch), and 50mm wide (2 inches) The rebar is 26mm across the widest part.
The main tools I used, were a MIG welder, angle grinder, drill, Hammer, and bench vise.
Tools / Supplies, I often use are.

Gavin Clark DIY - Навчання та стиль
This guy reminds me a lot of my dad, he was always making some cool project like homemade fireplace tools complete with with fire tongs, poker, shovel and stand. I still have a huge completely functional bear trap made with teeth and double sprung. He even made his own hot rivets he forged and hammered in. Of course he did that forging on his homemade anvil. I sure miss him. ❤️
I give u proms of keeping up with your dad memory’s that’s what is all about and telling his stories thump’s up 4u👍👍👍👍
You dad reminds me very much of my dad, I learned a lot from dad, it was him who made me who I am today, Cheers! to your dad and mine. Thank you for your comment.
Wow Gavin, fantastic work. Anyone who can make a ring out of steel like that, without a ring roller, gets a huge thumbs up. I admire your metal working skills. Thank you
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it, and I very much appreciate your comment. Cheers!

Another Texan , from Houston !!!!! I love it
. Excellent idea , execution , succinctly explained ......... without the normal cr**ppy background music , gushy excitable over the top high fiving with your mates , closeups of the dog , cat , wife , kids no ton of other sh**t on the bench , underfoot ...... brilliant .
Mate - your videos just keep getting better. I also really appreciate that you take the time to explain layouts design and thinking. Rather than just only doing assembly. Really excellent content - thank you.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it, and I very much appreciate your feedback.
Your creativity is inspiring. I've used rebar for cooling trays on my bench grinders. I used it for my handle on my bandsaw stand also. Just beautiful work man!
Thank you very much Ross, I appreciate your comment. I love the look of rebar. Cheers!
Loved the jig for the spokes, how to set out the degrees and the hole for the center made it so much easier by the looks of it. The wheels looked fantastic when on the axle, cant wait to see the finished product.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. I appreciate your comment.
It's rare to see someone on yt do everything correctly. This guy is a pro.
Another excellent engineering project Gavin. Love it.
Thank you very much Mike, I appreciate your comment.
Wow, those look like a piece of art. They can be used as an ab wheel for exercise.
Hola Gavin, es para mí un placer poder verte trabajar y fijarme en tus trucos que después yo utilizo para mis proyectos particulares, ver como sujetas con las escuadras, con el tornillo de banco, taladro, etc.
Me encanta ver tu sabiduría en mis pequeños trabajos, gracias una vez más y cómo siempre saludos desde España.
Muchas gracias, me alegro que te haya gustado. Te deseo lo mejor para tus futuros proyectos. Saludos desde Australia.
Mechanical Art like that should bring riches!
Nem drága,praktikus megoldás.Köszönöm
I hope you teach...young folks need your experience...amazing faber!!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it Ray, I very much appreciate your comment.
Perfect axles for the outback . Love the real world CAD , same as I used for last 50 years , cardboard assisted design. Ripper mate 🤘🏻
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. Cardboard was the way I did it too many years ago too mate, Cheers!
Dang, Gavin! You can't go so long between videos where you make neat stuff. I start having withdrawal symptoms...shakes, fever, uneasiness. I always enjoy your work. Thank you!
Doctor Gavin says just watch them all again, problem solved, and my bill is on the way. Hahaha, Thank you very much, I am glad you like my work. Cheers! mate I love your comment.
Outstanding job, Gavin!!! Thanks for posting!👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you very much Lemev, I am glad you liked it and I appreciate your comment.
You sir are a true master! Thought you were crazy when you started whacking that flat bar. Turned out fantastic! Way to go!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. I appreciate your comment Jay. Greetings from Australia. Cheers!
You are truly a skilled craftsman! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it.

Thank you for watching.
Really enjoy watching your work, thanks for sharing!
No problem, thank you very much for watching, I am glad you liked it.
that looks AMAZING man... you have a really good eye for that industrial looking metal style that I love. keep up the great work!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it Chris. Industrial style metal is my favorite. Cheers!
Thank you Gavin, great idea and skills.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it.
I would be down with a set of these for my DIY tool chest instead of inflatable tires. Theyd look exo on the big chunky coffee table too.
Outstanding video and craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. You always have something to teach and give to others. Saludos desde México
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it and I appreciate your comment. Greetings from Australia.
So amazing. Your use of common sense and common tools, to make amazing and useful products. Thank you. Love it. Keep going.
Thank you very much John, I appreciate your comment.
Great work and inspirational for anyone trying to make something from available resources instead of putting out huge dollars, enjoyed, cheers!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. Your comment is very much along my idea of making things and using simple tools if I can. I appreciate your comment.
Gavin great work I enjoy all of your videos you do super clean work and looks great. Thank you very much and keep the videos coming.
Thanks Stan B👍
Thank you very much Stan I am glad you liked it. Cheers!
Brilliant. When I saw the final product at the beginning I thought, "oh this time he'll need a serious tool to bend the rim." Yeah, right 😅
Hahaha, smart people would have used a bit of 8 inch pipe and cut it up, or used a bender, not me, I use a hammer. Cheers!
The layout on the white piece of board was a strike forhead moment, I have been burning paper layouts for years. Seriously, thanks, man. The wheels are pretty dang cool, too.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. I use paper too, but if I can make a quick template from an off-cut it is much easier. I appreciate your comment. Cheers!
Really well done. I could see two sets of these becoming an old style warehouse cart.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. I love those old carts. Thank you for your comment.
That was an awesome way to make a circle from a flat stock. Great job, nice video.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Really terrific work. I always get good ideas here. Thanks
Thank you very much, I am happy you liked it.
Good work, I took on a project that was a cart that held a large bell.I had the wheel tire rolled for me but I have used the cold forming method on lots of other projects it really is a cool way of doing it.
I do think it is a cool way to do it too, and you appreciate the job more when it is finished. Lots of fun, Cheers! Kathleen.
Always love your work, this is no exception.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Your work is always clean and on point plus you make it look so easy and that is true talent
Thank you very much Bradley, I appreciate your comment mate.
And today on the screen : The Master of bending grinding and welding.
Extremely impressive, as usual !
Greetings !

G'day Gavin, your an absolute Artist !!! Love your work!!!
Thank you very much Michael, I appreciate your comment.
You have that industrial look down to a science with minimal cost and just a little bit of sweat🤗😎🤗😎
Thanks Garth, I do love doing these things. Cheers!
Gavin, my man, you never seize to amaze me. You are the ONLY guy on this planet, that has made an ugly piece of structure material, into an art masterpiece.
Hahaha, Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Great wheels Gavin! I have made some steel wheels for my hit and miss engine carts. Instead of bending band iron I had a steel shop cut 3 inch wide pieces of 8 inch diameter steel pipe. The five spokes is great, not often you see 5 spokes, nice touch! I also like your hub design, plenty of "bearing" surface but looks proper on the axle end. The castle nut is another nice touch that makes it look the part! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. Cutting 3 inch strips of pipe would be the smart way to do it, I don't do "smart" I have a hammer. Hahaha, I appreciate your comment. Cheers!
Nice work Gavin! Thanks.
Thank you very much Waterboy, I am glad you liked it.

Hello Cavin
Nice to see you at your workshop
I haven’t seen you long time I don't know why, now happy founded you again.
I have had a few other things on so I have not made many videos, welcome back.
Another excellent engineering👌Very nice work😎
Thank you very much.
You have given me a great idea. Shepards hut wheels are difficult to come by in the USA. I shall make my own, using twisted rebar spokes.
That sounds awesome, I wish you the best for your project.
Excelente trabajo....!!
Muchas gracias, me alegro que te haya gustado.
Hi Gavin, great work yet again.
Showed this video to my dad 85
He was a wheelright in his day.
Say,s your a real craftsman.
He said making round from straight is an art.
But just thinks you should modify lump hammer with curved bottom to help with shape of bar to round.
Love your work, just asked my nephew on railroad to get me a piece of track to make anvil.
Thank you very much, I am glad you and Dad liked it, he is giving me very good advice a curved bottom on my hammer would also have reduced many of the marks on the inside of the ring, say thank you to him. I wish you both the best, and I wish you the best for your anvil project. Cheers!
Mestre seus trabalho e uma obra prima! Parabéns! Um abraço aqui do Brasil.
