      I agree, I was raised being a war of 1812 re-enacted because of my dad and his friends, and they would make little projects like this all the time.

    When I was starting out in old west Re-enactor, I volunteered with Wells Fargo Stagecoach with a stagecoach opening their banks. I have always liked stagecoach’s & covered wagons. Therefore Wells Fargo strong boxes intrigued me. Never saw one being made. Good job enjoyed video.
