I like the way you did the vid. No talking or wasted verbals just plain and easy demos. Your work shop an d equipment are nice and clean. You are an excellent craftsman. As a real gobstopper I tend to agree that an acid test at the end just to make our jaws drop. Thanks mate. AWESOME.
I am a 71 year old shipwright & used block & tackle quite a lot. Fascinating seeing the fine craftsman ship used to make them. love this video well done sir cheers OXOX
I've been using a cast-iron block and tackle system for 15 years on my balcony to haul heavy loads such as sand and bricks. It's regularly used to save scratching the stairwell walls from awkward objects of furniture. They are old century design but extremely functional, and many jobs can be done by a single person. Saves my knee joints too☺
Not only are you a great craftsman, but you're a super awesome teacher! There's quite a few people out there that are good at what they do, but few that are good at teaching it. I'll proceed with checking out the rest of your videos. Thank you very much for sharing!
This is great. You have a GOD given talent. I also like how organized your shop is. You must have served in the military. That is something that we were taught in the Army and has always stayed with me. Everything has it's place and clean as you go.
Great video! When I was kid I kept my saddle hanging from a block and tackle from the barn. I was small for my age and couldn't lift the saddle onto my horse, so I had to walk the horse under the saddle and lower it onto my horse with a block and tackle. When I got done riding, I'd undo the girth and hoist it back up. For the memories!
I'm about to use a block and tackle pulley system to lift a basket seat about 15' into the air in one of our barns. Wish I had the time and resources to make my own vintage block! This is awesome. Well put together and you know it won't fail.
Work of art! I appreciate your level of perfection...so many you tube-video-guys show "me" how to make a piece of garbage. True, having the right tools and so many, helps, but you obviously have great skill beyond the tools. Hope I can acquire all the tools someday!
Once again "FEDDIE" the MASTER Craftsman at it again! Pure precision in what he does. Subscribe to his channel it is always a wealth of knowledge! Keep it up Feddie? Great Job!
Yikes, what a beautiful shop! I could make almost anything in there. Great work. I watched this video because I sell antiques online, and have an unusual pulley with brass wheels. The problem is the strap is spread inside from over strain. After watching this, I might have to "slice and shim"... This was a pleasure to watch.
Liked the video, it's a long time since I've seen someone Make a block. I once rigged some tall ship (a brigantine and a fully rigged ship) we made blocks much like this, we didn't finish with varnish, we dropped them in a barrel of linseed and tallow for a couple of days. We tried turning wooden sheaves but found that they either swelled or broke unless they were made of lignum vitae or red gum. In the end our sheaves ( the pulley wheels)were made either of iron ( reused from old blocks) or Tufnell, we always used a steel axel sometimes stainless. To hold the axel in place we had one end riveted ( or used a long coach bolt). The other end was held in place with a metal plate, the uk had just gone decimal so we usually used an old penny for this plate. Keep making the videos.
Robert Sheffey Outstanding. Thanks for letting my know Brother. I would not have known unless you would have said something. Funny though, I knew something was up yesterday because my subscriptions went crazy for a few hours. Then I saw your comment and it all made sense.
That was the most entertaining woodworking video I've ever watched. The project is awesome to begin with, but the video editing and wordless clarity had me riveted. Thanks!!
Absolutely the best DYI video I have watched. I retired about 2 weeks ago. A project/dream to do in my retirement was to build a block and tackle set. Up until I saw your video it was just an dream, without a plan. But not any more I found your video ---- it is a dream that has come true. Many thanks for this video and you other videos I have watched. However the one thing holding me back The one thing holding me back now is the name of the tool you used to bend the steel please!
William P McAleer Thanks for watching, William. I really appreciate it! I bent the metal using a cheap bender I bought at Harbor Freight. Send me an email and I will give you the CAD templates for the cutouts. blazingnailgun@gmail.com
What does he have to do, to make you believe, it looked pretty clear to me. Every guy should have a basic woodshop when he needs one. Clean, organized, well lighted, nice and airy, vac system, refrigerator, coffee maker, micro wave, Mini Split Hot & Cold. Bathroom with shower. Storage for materials, Forklift, XYZ platform system at least 60"x 60" with 8" depth capacity, Video editing studio, Secure locker for Camera light sound equpt. How else could we make a unbelievable Pulley block as good as this. Can we all agree.
Very well done build and video! I've always liked their simplicity and functionality! Yours is a beauty to behold. I know it's a decorative item but think it would work well for the right weight. The router cutting the groove on the wheels was great and something I will use. Thanks for sharing.
One thought - were it for practical use, it would be stronger if the grain of the cheeks was in line with the direction of lift. You made them cross-wise.
wow fuzzy worry your having a bad day but on the other hand with the strength of the metal the wood only really acts as a spacer so direction really dont matter much
Awesome video sir! Awesome attention to detail. After 11 minutes and 9 seconds of cool craftsmanship though, all I could think of was a multitude of ways to secure that drill press solidly. Just my 2 cents, not a troll, and MakingIt is a gold mine. Looking forward to checking out your other videos.
Grate video. Thanks for taking the time to edit and share it. Now I saw that it's a decorative block in your notes so it doesn't really matter. But just as a polite pointer, the grain running the wrong way. So if someone going to make one for pulling some load, make the grain run length way not cross way as you lose strength and it may split under load.
Woodkrafts FWI Thanks for watching. The wood is not carrying the load on a block and tackle. The steel bar carries all the load. The pretty wood is just window dressing. :-)
Great video for sure. The grain of the wood doesn't matter! It takes NO load. load transfers from the hook to the metal straps to the axle. Side cheeks are for decoration and to keep the sheaves apart.
Add a steel shaft and brass bushings to your pulleys and this block will hold a surprisingly heavy load. Brunel pulleys were made this way in the 19th century Portsmouth, but from a single wooden block (which was drilled then mortized for the pulley's slot). This was among the earliest series productions to ever take place (around 160000 pulleys/year at the time).
Really enjoyed this- beautiful work and nice technique. My father had a set like this around our house for many years, I don't know what ever happened to them. He "borrowed" them from work to straightened out my sister's tricycle frame after backing over it with this car- an old family legend- my sister was about 4 and cussed him out in some kind of baby talk. One note of safety- at about 3:21 in the video, you should really use a vise or solid hold down when drilling metal- this gave me shivers of what could happen if the bit caught...
Great job, wow, tons of work for something so small, lot's of details. I especially liked how you made the pulleys, I must try that . Thanks for showing the video.
***** Jimmy mentioned your channel on the second episode of making it, talking about the cnc ruler. You're even in the show notes. After that I was hooked I really enjoy your work and these methods were really cool and unique. Thanks and keep up the good work!
That's a lot of work. Very nice. I have a three pulley block and tackle I got from my father that I still use occasionally on the job (construction). You will need to build a second one to be able to use it though. One issue I see other than the wooden dowel instead of steel, is the two steel strips used to hang it had a gap between them so all the weight is on the inner steel strip. Next time clamp the two together before drilling the through hole. But very nice work
great stuff it would have been good to see you lifting something with it as well in this video but still very attractive pulley very fine woodworking skills all in all just awesome
I want the metal strap to go through and loop around the bottom like a real one, so in the worst case scenario of total wood failure, the rope through the middle wheel can't actually escape the block.
Nice build, and metal working. I wish I had more space for metal related tools. A tool question for you... I see that you have the Porter-Cable disk/belt sander. I have an older Delta disk/belt sander. The belt sander can't be used for sanding sides (small boxes, etc) flat because the belt isn't tight enough to keep the sandpaper absolutely flat against the platen. It's only good for very rough sanding. I was wondering about the quality of the this belt sander in terms of achieving flat surfaces. If you were to sand a small surface and then test for flatness with a straight edge, would the surface be flat? Your opinion would be valued, so if you have any experience here I'd appreciate reading anything you have to say. Thanks!
Marty Backe Thanks for the kind words and encouragement, Marty. I don't us the belt sander a lot but it has served my needs well. Yes, I can get a flat and straight surface when I sand something fairly small. Hope that helps out.
Marty, I have the same one, and I think it works great for the money. Dont waste your time and money on the skill one (sold at Lowes ) Its the first one I've ever owned, (Porter cable one) and I couldn't be happier with it. Thought another opinion of it might help
Wow - That was 'The' Best Video / demonstration I've ever seen. Your skills (all-around), & your 'Executive' planning skillsets with execution, Including visual layout are like a Surgeon. With 'That' kind of talent, you should have More Professions.I don't know who you are my friend, but there are more 'keys' in your tool-box that can open 'doors' in many other walks of Life
If the straps made a complete circle, around the bottom also, it would be safer, I've got some originals like that. They also have brass wheels and a steel pin though. If your wood pin shears, there's nothing but a little wood and glue to keep it from busting out of the bottom.
Very nice!! No blather, just information. I am strongly sound oriented (singer) so I LOVE the visual presentation with no superfluous, distracting yakking. And...regardless of what Doctor Michael Andrews writes below...I think your voice sounds fine.
I probably would have made it so the grain ran vertically and with a steel pin instead of a dowel you would have probably doubled it's lifting capacity. But i guess it's just a show piece.
You are the master of all !!! Enjoy your video's and would like to have the ability to build like yourself !!! I'm sure you can do more with a rusty can opener than I could do with a shop full of tools. Jeff
Fedi, really cool project somehow missed til now in my feed. This would be a great decorator item, for the vintage "flair" I probably would have roughed it up some and added another layer of some darker stain. They seem to like grunge not nice and shiny and new.
Pat M Thanks for watching, Pat. I appreciate the comments. This was a fun project. Since then I have drawn it up and cut a couple on the CNC. So much easier!
I like the way you did the vid.
No talking or wasted verbals just plain and easy demos.
Your work shop an d equipment are nice and clean.
You are an excellent craftsman.

I don't care if the grain goes up, down, left, right or sideways. It looks awesome and is a mighty fine piece of work. Congrats

Yikes, what a beautiful shop! I could make almost anything in there. Great work. I watched this video because I sell antiques online, and have an unusual pulley with brass wheels. The problem is the strap is spread inside from over strain. After watching this, I might have to "slice and shim"... This was a pleasure to watch.
For some object that appears so simple that is a hell of a lot of work. Very interesting to see, thanks for sharing.

Its amazing that you can build a $100 block and tackle with only $8000 worth of machines.
Nice work. The router cove on that wheel was a nice touch.

makes me wanna go build my own workshop! imagine all the stuff you could make
That my friend is not only Bad A$$ but also a beautiful wood piece. Great job!
Todd Gardner Thank you for the kind words, Todd. I really appreciate the encouragement!
This is one of the COOLEST Videos I have ever seen!!.. The way you presented it is AWESOME. THANK YOU!!...

Todd Bailey Thanks, Todd. I appreciate the compliment.

Jakfilm fuck you cross-wise
fuzzy wuzzy why do I get the impression that 1. You didn't finish high school, and 2. You voted for Trump.
It don't take much to add two and two together does it ?? Except if you're fuzzy
Sounds more like a Bernie supporter.
wow fuzzy worry your having a bad day but on the other hand with the strength of the metal the wood only really acts as a spacer so direction really dont matter much
Excellent work. What a great shop? Especially liked the up and down tool . . . great job. Thank you

KF7AIK Thanks for the kind words and for the view!
Nice build, and metal working. I wish I had more space for metal related tools. A tool question for you...
I see that you have the Porter-Cable disk/belt sander. I have an older Delta disk/belt sander. The belt sander can't be used for sanding sides (small boxes, etc) flat because the belt isn't tight enough to keep the sandpaper absolutely flat against the platen. It's only good for very rough sanding.

Marty, I have the same one, and I think it works great for the money.
Dont waste your time and money on the skill one (sold at Lowes )
Its the first one I've ever owned, (Porter cable one) and I couldn't be happier with it.
Thought another opinion of it might help
Wow - That was 'The' Best Video / demonstration I've ever seen. Your skills (all-around), & your 'Executive' planning skillsets with execution, Including visual layout are like a Surgeon. With 'That' kind of talent, you should have More Professions.I don't know who you are my friend, but there are more 'keys' in your tool-box that can open 'doors' in many other walks of Life

norm1124 Thanks Norm. I like listening to that too.
I probably would have made it so the grain ran vertically and with a steel pin instead of a dowel you would have probably doubled it's lifting capacity. But i guess it's just a show piece.
A steel pin ( axle) only would be required. The wood, really has no stress on it at all. But it does look nice.
Beautiful workmanship!
The Dropcord Workshop Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. I really appreciate it.
thumbs up hell how about a both ! WOW what amazing work ! NO THANK YOU ! for an amazing video !
You are the master of all !!! Enjoy your video's and would like to have the ability to build like yourself !!! I'm sure you can do more with a rusty can opener than I could do with a shop full of tools. Jeff

Pat M Thanks for watching, Pat. I appreciate the comments. This was a fun project. Since then I have drawn it up and cut a couple on the CNC. So much easier!
How's the electric work coming along all good I hope?? CNC you say, buddy old pal.... lol
Good to hear from you, Pat. Yep, been cutting my teeth on the CNC and haven fun with it.
Very impressive, well done!
Thanks!
Nice work. looks awesome!
Always love your videos bud.
