No offense, but Dave Engels is, in my opinion, the most painstaking and informative craftsman on UA-cam. He is perfectly accomplishing his goal of creating an exhaustive video library of the work and best practices of the carriage trade. Even if we never work on wheels or wagons, he has much to teach us about geometry, blacksmithing, sanding (inside joke), and ethics.
When I found Engels I was hooked. The way his videos are done, in terms of how he presents information, is the very best. Nearly every channel that makes something has endless video of someone doing things with no explanation as to why or how. I am so very tired of seeing someone fill time by filming themselves using one tool after another, pushing wood through saws, sanding, etc. Over and over again. Their content is a huge waste of time, until the end, if at all. Engel is the antithesis! He explains everything as the work is done on projects that don’t exist anywhere else. Essential Craftsman, and John’s furniture restoration are the only exceptions I have found. A tip of the hat to you all. Thank you EC for taking notice and the time to stop by his shop.
I did see a little sanding on the last video....and the one before that!!!!...but I watched it all - no skipping to the end. I must admit I've probably watched more Engels than EC
A Real Master Craftsman! Used to walk by Dave's shop almost daily or drive by. While he was constructing the Twenty Mule Team Borax Wagons' And, peer in when his door was open. Before moving from Joliet to Roundup, Mt. 2015-17.
Scott if I was you sir I would have been getting my hands dirty there is so much you can learn from this great gentleman we have gentleman in the uk 🇬🇧 who do the same and these people must be listened too thank you gentleman dam good video stay safe 👍👏👏
Love both these channels, so glad they came together. Dave deserves so many more subscribers, his craftsmanship is incredible and his videography is excellent too.
I wish I had a grandpa..now I hear ima be a grandpa! Looks like I'll get the chance to be my grandsons hero! Im so very excited! Thank God for My life!
Scott I have been watching Dave at Engels for about 3 years now and have been amazed at how much knowledge this Renaissance man has and you start to think of people like him and Cy for example that Carry so much knowledge and what a huge loss it will be to society when they pass you can put much info into books or videos but you can't have interactive conversations with them and learn... And nowadays a lot of the youth are more interested in playing games on computers rather than keeping the old crafts and skills alive I wonder where the world will be in 50 years? Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Two of my favorite guys to watch. Dave is unbelievable in the amount of knowledge he has and shows. The most impressive thing is patience. this man is the most patient man I've seen work. thank you for taking the time to visit and to let us see the camaraderie among craftsmen. and for sharing.ECF
I LOVE💖 Dave's channel! I've been watching him since he started the Borax wagon series. I'm always in awe of the craftsmanship that comes from his shop!
Really glad you stopped by to see Dave! I’ve been watching him since he built the borax wagons so 7 or 8 years! I picked you up about 2 years ago and really enjoy your line of delivering a story! Keep up the good work!! Thanks Jennings
If you don't take Dave up on his offer to help set tires then you're out of your mind! I've said it before in the comments on Dave's channel, but if my father was alive today he would get no end of joy watching both of these channels. I'm very thankful for what both of you do.
EC, When Dave started work on the Borax wagons that's when I found him and subscribed immediately and still watch. I truly appreciate watching Dave Engle.
This is a great idea for a new series after your spec house series wraps up. Travel around the country and do videos on fellow craftsmen and their workshops.
Two of my absolute favorites in one video! Dave is an unbelievable craftsman and watching him work is calming as much as it is enlightening. I know I would enjoy seeing a video where you help him set tires, or help with any other task. Thank you for bringing attention to another great content creator!
It is about impossible to find two of my most favorite 'Channel Masters' on the same video! Oh, and large diameter wheels are easier to assemble than little small ones..... if I've learned ANYTHING from watching previous episodes! Thanks to BOTH of you for your Public Service!!
A few years ago I had the pleasure of visiting the coach shop of Harley Chandler in KY. What an amazing experience that was. Unfortunately Harley has passed. It's great to see people trying to keep the past alive.
Made my whole weekend. Two true craftsmen together made me think back to the fine folks that allowed me to learn from them. I always made a point to teach those that asked and were sincere in their quest for knowledge. Thank you both for the lessons I have learned watching your videos.
The videos I watch on your channel always show and talk about doing a good job, do it right the first time. You hire the best at their profession, not the fastest. You want the best craftsman to work on your projects. You’ve heard the saying jack of all trades, master of none. Well you have met the MASTER of probably 20 or more trades. His attention to detail on whatever he’s doing far exceeds anyone that I’ve ever met in my 77 years on this earth.
Yep here I am again a year later, and still watching two of my favorite craftsmen, thank you both for all of your video's . I'm an Octogenarian now but still learn from both of you God Speed. ECF.
This channel has made me not only a better craftsman, but a better person, and most importantly a much better father to my son's. I thank you guys and be proud..👍🏻🎩
Three things have changed my life over the last year; Learning woodworking skills, planting a vegetable garden, and reading old books. Thanks for all this amazing content.
Read. Read. Read and read some more! Not fiction story books but factual nonfiction books. Books are knowledge and all you need to do to receive that knowledge is read! Stay away from the internet (except for guys like these two) as everything is tainted on the internet now! 20 years ago you could come to the internet and easily extract fact from fiction but now, now it's all opinion based statements as opposed to facts!
I saw this video pop up and could not believe that two awesome channels could come together like this!! I also loved seeing Scott wondering around the shop, asking questions and being genuinely interested in everything. It definitely put a smile on my face. Please, please, PLEASE go back and help set those log arch tires!!
Been watching Mr. Engels since about halfway through his Borax wagon series, and the videos of the mule teams pulling them in parades is fascinating. We always hear about mules being ornery, but these mules were very docile and friendly. Dave's craftsmanship is amazing, running the gamut from upholstery to blacksmithing.
My grandfather built/restored a Jinker in retirement circa 1980. My dad had located it on a local farm (Australia) where it had rotted into the ground and there wasn't much of it left. We still have it.
I've been watching Dave's channel for several years now, so it's nice that you can help others find it. The only people who can hold a candle to Dave's woodworking skill are the shipwrights engaged in building or restoring wooden boats, for which there are several channels. It's certainly nice to see these skills carried forward by whatever means are available. Steve from Circle
Thanks for the visit. What I love about Dave's videos is the number of skills that he has developed which are essentially lost today. Sit down and write them out and the list keeps growing.
Enjoyed the video.When I was in High School in the 60's,the wood shop had a huge Oliver table saw with two blades.There was also a 36" surface planer and 12" joiner.Looking back, I think they were war surplus.
Let's not forget Rick at the "Luminary Shoppe" he builds carriage lamps from the ground up. and his restorations to very rare carriage lamps is truly amazing
I don't know if it was because of EC that I came across Engels Coach Shop, or vice versa. But the key attraction to both channels is the excellent sharing of wisdom and craft. Keep up the good work, indeed!
@@Anglo-EgyptianMan Right about OSHA. I'm retired from doing construction, but I've refused some jobs because OSHA and HUD would have caused me too much aggravation and possible fines.
@@Anglo-EgyptianMan Oh also, I had an EPA permit/license and often enough bid jobs where I knew some EPA regs would be ignored because if I followed all the rules the quote would be too high to get the job.
So glad I checked IPad after lunch, my two favorite gentlemen on You Tube together at Dave’s place. What a great video. I want both of you to know how over the years my shop and skills have improved because of you two. With winter coming soon to SD, I have been busy rounding up shop supplies, wood and iron to get ready for the long great days in my shop. Seeing you two together has been inspirational for the day. Keep up the good work from both of you. Spending the rest of the day organizing the shop. Have a great day to all.
I watch both channels and never considered a collaboration, however this was perfect. Two master craftsmen working with the same media, yet with much different practical applications. Splendid and perfect!
Interestingly, the owners of this rare octagon mail order house, lived in Bahrain for decades and worked as a limo driver for oil company executives. There is a complete history of how american oil ended up under middle east land. It’s a bed and breakfast, or was the last I heard.
These guys are two of my most favorite UA-cam Content Men. Dave and Scott, your old school and ultimately most critically useful skills demonstrations, work ethic and life philosophies are why your subscribers come here (and Engels Coach Shop). The definition of you two in the shop at the same time is synergy squared.
It's extraordinary to see you and Dave together. Two of the most skilled people on UA-cam. I have followed both channels for a very long time, but I did not know the details we learned about the table saw.
It’s really nice to see you both connecting. I discovered Engel’s Coach Shop by chance one day, around the same time I discovered Essential Craftsman. Dave is a gentleman, and his unhurried quiet manner is really soothing, and always a pleasure to watch. I have some catching up to do on his videos, but it’s going to be great. His brother in law at the Luminary Shoppe is also worth a visit, with the same care taken on old carriage lamps.
I have been following these 2 channel from when they started love them both. Good to see you to together and yes Scott you need to help set that big wheel.
This was awesome. If we could get these two gentleman, Lou from tips from a shipwright, and Matt from Next level Carpentry all together to talk craft, it would be an an incredible conversation.
Logging arches were used behind oxen here in the ozark in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Still see a few originals around amusment areas in Branson Mo.
Two of my favorite old codgers😉😉😉
My two favourite American channels in one video superb
Two of my favorite people in one video! Very cool....
Thanks Scott. We thoroughly enjoyed your visit! Looking forward to more to come. Dave & Diane
Your comment makes me hope that there is more collaboration to come?
My three fav channels:
Engels
Scott's
Tips from a Shipwright
@@rickrudd what about Leo over at Sampson Boat Co?
I got so happy when I saw you two in the same video
My two favorite channels all in one , what a day 👍

Yep,… the “essential“ is good,… the coach shop is more than good!
Each has their own specialty. I'll take EC on a home build, but for crazy machines ECS.
No offense here but the one that goes around your house.

I can not believe I missed this one Mr. Dave. Once again 1st. class.

Two national treasures standing side by side.
I miss the world where strong men with integrity knew…..
Jim
Just seeing these two in the same room put a smile on my face. Great men, the both of them.
Love both these channels, so glad they came together. Dave deserves so many more subscribers, his craftsmanship is incredible and his videography is excellent too.
Dave's channel is so underated.
I wish Scott had actually watched Dave's videos before doing this. Anyone who has watched Dave knows what the rubber tire machine is.
I wish I had a grandpa..now I hear ima be a grandpa! Looks like I'll get the chance to be my grandsons hero! Im so very excited! Thank God for My life!
Scott...Dave was my Neighbor and Best Friend growing up in Montana. He's a Pretty Good Ole' Sod!
Two legendary craftsmen in the same room.
Two of the best Craftspeople around. EC sounds like a kid in a toy store.👍👍😊😊
Scott I have been watching Dave at Engels for about 3 years now and have been amazed at how much knowledge this Renaissance man has and you start to think of people like him and Cy for example that Carry so much knowledge and what a huge loss it will be to society when they pass you can put much info into books or videos but you can't have interactive conversations with them and learn...

I wonder where the world will be in 50 years?
Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
2 of the most knowledgeable men I've had the pleasure of learning from since we have this wonderful invention of the internet! You 2 are class acts!!!
Two of my favorite guys to watch. Dave is unbelievable in the amount of knowledge he has and shows. The most impressive thing is patience. this man is the most patient man I've seen work. thank you for taking the time to visit and to let us see the camaraderie among craftsmen. and for sharing.ECF
This is the adult version of a kid in a candy shop. Put a smile on my face just to look at you looking at the machines.
I LOVE💖 Dave's channel! I've been watching him since he started the Borax wagon series. I'm always in awe of the craftsmanship that comes from his shop!
I watch every video Dave posts. This warmed my heart.
Wow! Thanks for this. 2 of my favorite craftsmen’s worlds collide.
One of my favorite videos is dave giving Scott a shop tour both of you guys are impressive
Really glad you stopped by to see Dave! I’ve been watching him since he built the borax wagons so 7 or 8 years!
I picked you up about 2 years ago and really enjoy your line of delivering a story!
Keep up the good work!!
Thanks Jennings

I concur !! I love watching craftsmen of any trade show their skill set.
That would be super awesome.

I know I would enjoy seeing a video where you help him set tires, or help with any other task. Thank you for bringing attention to another great content creator!
Dave is truely an essential craftsman.
I live close by the this shop. I was able to view the Borax wagons before they were shipped out they are amazing!
It is about impossible to find two of my most favorite 'Channel Masters' on the same video! Oh, and large diameter wheels are easier to assemble than little small ones..... if I've learned ANYTHING from watching previous episodes! Thanks to BOTH of you for your Public Service!!
Dave is a man that was transported from the 1800's to show us how talented he was/is. Love his channel.
My two favorite UA-camrs! Both of you guys are far beyond great! Please don't stop!
A few years ago I had the pleasure of visiting the coach shop of Harley Chandler in KY. What an amazing experience that was. Unfortunately Harley has passed. It's great to see people trying to keep the past alive.

Dave Engels is the ultimate educator. The tools in his workshop are as smooth as the man himself. He is a a master tradie
This channel has made me not only a better craftsman, but a better person, and most importantly a much better father to my son's.
I thank you guys and be proud..👍🏻🎩

These two guys and Thomas Johnson antique restoration are the only things I make a point to watch. So many smarts.

While pleased to see the two dear ones meet, Mr. Engels's workshop was interesting in this side. Good luck .
I have been a subscriber to Daves channel since the borax wagons,thanks for stopping by and for this video🤗😎🤗😎
Thank you for making this video and letting it see me. The right appreciation for years of craftsmanship.
That shop is a working museum. Totally enjoyable and informative. From his videos, I had no idea of the size of his shop.
Enjoyed the video Scott. Thanks for taking us along. Y'all take care and God bless.
I've been watching Dave now for some time.
Thanks for the tour!
My grandfather built/restored a Jinker in retirement circa 1980. My dad had located it on a local farm (Australia) where it had rotted into the ground and there wasn't much of it left. We still have it.
Scott Wodsworth visiting one of the finest craftsmen I ever laid my eyes on, and a thoroughly decent person to that!
Two masters of their craft.
It was fun to see Scott turn into a kid in a candy shop. Loved the video
Good to see one expert respecting another.

Steve, I'd like to see David visiting Leo, at the Tally Ho
build. Doug, in Tulsa, and a whole raft of others.

Two craftsmen sharing. Dave looks as proud as punch having EC visiting and he deserves to show that pride.
Necessity is the mother of invention and Dave is clearly no stranger to tackling those tasks!
What a small world! Two of my favorite channels!
Wow, two of my UA-cam heros come together...
Two great craftsmen in one place! Love the approach to life that these guys take. Thank you both for sharing your lives with us!
Dave is one amazing craftsman .
Let's not forget Rick at the "Luminary Shoppe" he builds carriage lamps from the ground up. and his restorations to very rare carriage lamps is truly amazing
Engels Coach Shop - my favorite UA-cam Chanel!
Thanks for the time to give this tour and host this very special guest. I hope you guys feel this was worthwhile because a lot of us do!!
The both of you need to collaborate on a project. Episode of the decade
Amazing Collab I love both of these guys. What a pleasure to watch. Thanks!
I don't know if it was because of EC that I came across Engels Coach Shop, or vice versa. But the key attraction to both channels is the excellent sharing of wisdom and craft. Keep up the good work, indeed!
Two of my favorite youtubers together! Made my day, thanks to you both. God bless Texas and long live the Republic.....
I just found Dave's channel and was pleasantly surprised to see Scott show up in a video. That table saw is a beast.
I felt like I was visiting an old friend,,,, I've been watching Daves movies for a long time now.
2 peas in a pod.. Love the content these men offer to us..
Two legends have met!
OSHA would have a meltdown in that shop.
Open, crushing, maiming mechanisms everywhere.
Beautiful machines.
Thanks for another outstanding EC episode.
OSHA can shove it, I'd love to have a shop like this.
@@Anglo-EgyptianMan Right about OSHA. I'm retired from doing construction, but I've refused some jobs because OSHA and HUD would have caused me too much aggravation and possible fines.
@@Anglo-EgyptianMan Oh also, I had an EPA permit/license and often enough bid jobs where I knew some EPA regs would be ignored because if I followed all the rules the quote would be too high to get the job.
Osha needs to be abolished
@@DIGGER19860 No. It has done some good but just needs to be reigned in with some common sense if you can find enough people with some commom sense.

The amount of knowledge & amazing tools/equipment in Dave's shop is beyond words. A treasure/museum for sure. They don't make em like Dave anymore...
I watch both channels and never considered a collaboration, however this was perfect. Two master craftsmen working with the same media, yet with much different practical applications. Splendid and perfect!
One of my favorite you tube channels.
thank you both and (your better have's) thoroughly enjoyed the visit
One winter in tech school, I stayed at the octagon “Holt” house in SW Minnesota. Very cool history of track drive!
Interestingly, the owners of this rare octagon mail order house, lived in Bahrain for decades and worked as a limo driver for oil company executives. There is a complete history of how american oil ended up under middle east land. It’s a bed and breakfast, or was the last I heard.

Two inspirational masters chewing the fat. Love it. Oh to be a fly on the wall. Thank you.
Glad he is keeping the art of wheel making going!

This was awesome. If we could get these two gentleman, Lou from tips from a shipwright, and Matt from Next level Carpentry all together to talk craft, it would be an an incredible conversation.
That was most enjoyable, Scott. Thanks!
I'm a big fan of both of you. Thanks!
Logging arches were used behind oxen here in the ozark in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Still see a few originals around amusment areas in Branson Mo.
