The number of different skills you excel in never ceases to amaze me. Wood working, metal working, upholstering, sewing, painting, cattle farming, building barns and infrastructure to name a few. And when the Jeep project comes up, I'm pretty sure we viewers will be surprised with many more. Congratulations for your superb craftsmanship and thank you for the great content as always.
I was a painter and wood finisher for a number of years and was trained by a couple older painters. When working on a double hung window with multiple panes (9 over 9 or 6 over 6) it was impressed on me that repetition was the key to a good finish, especially on a clear finish. I immediately recognized you were using the same method with the wheels and it sure worked well.
I owned and worked in automotive and truck restoration shops for close to 40 years. I've probably painted around 30 sets of artillery and wood spoke wheels. It was nice to see you did it exactly as did for all those years. I also used 1 shot paint on all the wood, including truck beds, an old sign painter taught me that. Beautiful work!
I have come to believe that the "secret" of success in any trade is no more in the skill of the craftsman than it is in his self-discipline, at least when and where it matters. Those who are this good in one trade tend to do well at anything else, and in your case, Dave, the proof is in the pudding, as they say. You then combine that discipline with years of wisdom so that you know what battles are worth fighting and which ones are not. As you probably realize, what you are sharing with us is not only your techniques, but also the philosophy behind them, and I believe that is the gold mine that makes your video series so forever valuable. Thank you for letting us into your paint booth!
Three years ago I planned a cross country trip on my motor cycle. I wanted to stop to visit. Three weeks before I was to leave I had a stroke. That stopped my whole life. Thank You so much for bringing this to me❤❤💔💔💔💔
Veramente un capolavoro di realizzazione la verniciatura e venuta sicuramente sorprende certo come dicevi la mano è tutto il movimento costante è molto importante auguri per la tua prossima realizzazione 👍👍👍
Dave, I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much you have inspired me by watching most, if not all, your videos starting with the Borax wagons ! You are a truly gifted man and I wish you and your wife Diane, God's Blessings !! Onwards and Upwards !!🙏
I can certainly tell this was not your first rodeo on painting wheels. The results speak for themselves !!! Anyone that can have such a finish and make it look easy, is way above my pay grade !!! Excellent job !!!
a simple video that explains your entire ethos Dave, straightforward approach that aims only at the top and always achieves it. you are a master of your trade and should be recognised for this/ perfection is the only goal and you hit it everytime in everything you do. if future generations have half of what you strive for we would be in a much better place.
I've spent 30 years and counting in an autobody shop and spent some time painting industrial equipment too. I have never painted a wagon wheel, but your method is exactly how I would have approached it. I was even counting along as you were spraying. Lol! The only thing that surprised me was that you sprayed the outside first. Maybe you can get away with that with the slower drying paint. With fast drying automotive paint you would be risking some dry spots. A "professional" is simply someone paid to do a job. It doesn't mean they are any good. And this seems to be especially apparent in the paint spraying department. Thanks for another great video.😢
Dear Mr. Engels, Thank you for your advice on painting. I have a lot of experience in woodworking, I once had an expensive furniture company. So my experience was only with the wood that will be in the house. I have learned from you that the easiest way to protect wood that will be used outdoors is to apply the first coat of a very diluted paint or varnish to protect the wood from weathering. And it really works! :)
That was some great information on your painting techniques and products you use to get your fantastic paint jobs completed. More of your historical in the videos you share with everyone. Excellent job Dave, stay safe and keep your lessons going in the books. Fred.
You made them purdy! My daughter came by to see what I was doing, OH dad you watching paint dry, no watching the wheels get ready to go to work. They are going to look beautiful in you museum.
Can you imagine, craftsman back in the day used to hand paint these without a single run or drip, and even getting a glass finish with just a horse hair brush. How they did it, I'll never know but I gotta admire their skill. They were a breed of their own back then.
The advantage of using a brush, you avoid any run. But it takes very very long. My dad taught me how to paint with a brush when I was a mere teen, I can do a good enough job; I never managed to spray paint properly. Nice work Dave.
I was dumbfounded. I thought you were putting a lot of paint on for the tack coat. And I was wrong. I knew you knew what you were doing, but I don't put that much on for the first spray. I'll come back. But I am not doing wagon wheels. I always enjoy watching you. And enjoy your gentle laid back delivery. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for that. I doubt I'll ever paint a carriage again, but yeah, I had trouble with runs in exactly the places you pointed out. I also wondered about the automotive paints that were so popular back in the eighties. I love maroon on wheels. I've always thought that black with maroon wheels was a really classy look.
I learned a long time ago that, "a good paint job can hide bad woodworking, and a bad paint job can ruin the look of excellent woodworking". Great to see excellence in both aspects here.
You have an excellent system. It shows in the finished product. A very interesting comment about the use of automotive paint. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Thanks for sharing. I tried my hand a painting years ago as a hobby. I can see a lot of similarities with painting bicycle frames. It's the intersecting points as you point out. Patience and experience comes with practice of the craft. Good clean ventilation helps too.
17 years ago I had a bleeding ulcer nearly take me out. I have nerve damage from lack of blood flow to my arms and legs and developed benign essential tremors. I have to brace my wrists against something if I need to do something that requires a steady hand. That ended up making a lot of things I used to do almost impossible. I envy your steady hands because I wouldn't be able to paint with a sprayer now without having runs and drips because of how much my hand shakes.
Learned to paint airplanes with lacquer, epoxy and polyurethane, but none looked as nice as that enamel thinned with naptha. Will give that a shot on next ‘gotta look pretty’ paint project. Thanks. Also loved the tire masking trip; one piece vs. many little segments.
I love that, no matter what you are doing, you strive for that above and beyond quality. Thanks for inviting us in the paint booth. (They look amazing BTW)
Thanks for the painting lesson! It is interesting that you don't use automotive paint. Your explanation makes total sense, I just never thought about it I will remember this for my future projects!
Ahh, that masking tape peel was so satisfying! I've painted automotive steel wheels many times, but never thought to mask up like that... Quite agree about automotive paints on wood, they just don't work. Anybody who says 'paint is paint' is heading for a disaster.
G'day Dave, Yay Team ! Thankyou for making and posting this...

The Alloy Joins were then Served with Twine, and all the White Kite-String then blacked-out with a Sharpie to match the blackness of the Motorcycle (!).

I think the top design of the gun looks more like a DeVilbiss model or a knockoff unit. Binks had a different area at the hook point if memory serves me correctly. However, a real painter can shoot with any type of gun!
Thanks I can see the practiced method and can see why you follow that plan ,done a fair amount of finishing myself and I go in with a plan too most complex geometry first then fill in the fields.
Very informative tutorial Dave. That looks more like 1" wide tape than ½". There are various automotive products that would shine up that rubber. Happy weekend. Any snow yet? None in Southern Ontario Canada.
Very interesting, thank you. Funnily enough that colour is what I want to paint my Riley more or less. My challenge is painting a new, vintage car and not have it look modern so I want to avoid modern 2 pack paint if I can. I know you can flatten it and so on but it's awful stuff to spray at home. I also don't want a paint that always looks new. I want the paint to fade and get scratched and dirty and wear. It's an old car! But I don't want fake patina. I like that finish you got, that's the sort of look I want to achieve.
Brother had a Grumman AA1A plane, He painted it with a WWII paint scheme Yellow wings and tail, Gray fuselage with red stripes. After the tail & rudder was finished and still wet a swarm of gnats landed on the freshly painted tail... Little gnat foot prints all over . . . He was peeved . Ha ha ha ha ha ha
I really enjoyed your vid this week. I'm curious as to your mixture ratios. Looks you used a common siphon cup sprayer. I'm trying to better understand how to get a good result out of my painting. Thank you!
I have always heard painting is 90% preparation. I get discouraged when it takes forever to sand something then clean it before painting. I have learned to take my time and 2 coats is always better than one. We got about 3 inches of snow up here in Great Falls.
the song of the masking tape is the illustration of the precision of your work. all those who have already posed it have appreciated
The number of different skills you excel in never ceases to amaze me. Wood working, metal working, upholstering, sewing, painting, cattle farming, building barns and infrastructure to name a few.

@@giuseppearditi7963 I wish I could read your language??🙃
Dave, I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much you have inspired me by watching most, if not all, your videos starting with the Borax wagons !
You are a truly gifted man and I wish you and your wife Diane, God's Blessings !! Onwards and Upwards !!🙏
Wheels came out beautiful! Thanks for sharing your process with us!
I can certainly tell this was not your first rodeo on painting wheels.
The results speak for themselves !!!
Anyone that can have such a finish and make it look easy, is way above my pay grade !!!
Excellent job !!!

Thank you for teaching us your painting. It looks great.
Oh No!!!! We know your secret proprietary process!!! I guess we will have to sign a waver. Lol! Awesome job. You’re a true artist. Thanks!

Beautiful job.No one gets a finish that nice without a lot of planning,practice and diligence.
I am impressed by how well it turned out. The explanation is clear and informative. Illustrated is what it takes to get superior results.
A true craftsman in many trades! It is always a pleasure for me to watch and learn.
Thank you for sharing with us Dave😊
No runs , no drips , no errors - just well thought out , methodical and much practiced execution !
Wow....beautiful work!
A great big thank you for taking us along on this painting trip Dave. Loved it.
Yes a big thank you!
Dave,
Thank you for sharing your years of experience with us. I find it very interesting, to say the least. Thank you.
Your results are amazing, what works best for you is all that matters
You made them purdy! My daughter came by to see what I was doing, OH dad you watching paint dry, no watching the wheels get ready to go to work. They are going to look beautiful in you museum.
Once again thanks for the video
I learn a lot about using c-clamps from watching your page. Thanks.
Very nice. Look forward to seeing your videos. Very informative. Thanks.
Thanks Dave
You make the process look effortless. Great work and fantastic results!
Wheels turned out stunning. Beautiful job and thank you for sharing with us your knowledge, skills and abilities.
That's quite mesmerising to watch. Lovely colour.
Can you imagine, craftsman back in the day used to hand paint these without a single run or drip, and even getting a glass finish with just a horse hair brush. How they did it, I'll never know but I gotta admire their skill. They were a breed of their own back then.
Beautiful color and I love the high gloss shine.
Beautiful job Dave. You have a tremendous amount of patience. And it shows in the finish product.
Once again thank you sir for your knowledge.
The advantage of using a brush, you avoid any run. But it takes very very long. My dad taught me how to paint with a brush when I was a mere teen, I can do a good enough job; I never managed to spray paint properly.

Carmine red. I love that color. We had a horse drawn sleigh that was painted black and carmine. Just beautiful.
Thanks for that. I doubt I'll ever paint a carriage again, but yeah, I had trouble with runs in exactly the places you pointed out. I also wondered about the automotive paints that were so popular back in the eighties. I love maroon on wheels. I've always thought that black with maroon wheels was a really classy look.
great color and a very rich look can't wait to see it done !
I learned a long time ago that, "a good paint job can hide bad woodworking, and a bad paint job can ruin the look of excellent woodworking". Great to see excellence in both aspects here.
Those are some gorgeous wheels! Love the color and the finish!!
Well done, again, sir!
A real interesting video on painting. Thanks for showing us your technique.
Wow ! Much better then the brush ! Looks great
Hypnotic and delightful. Thank you.
You have an excellent system. It shows in the finished product. A very interesting comment about the use of automotive paint. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Very interesting. I had 4 questions, and you addressed each in your final commentary.
This was very interesting. Thanks for letting us in to see your painting techniques!
Thanks for sharing. I tried my hand a painting years ago as a hobby. I can see a lot of similarities with painting bicycle frames. It's the intersecting points as you point out. Patience and experience comes with practice of the craft. Good clean ventilation helps too.
Thank you for freely sharing your knowledge with us.
Thanks Dave for sharing! Your work is, as always, top notch. I love the rich deep red.
Thanks Mr.and Ms. Engel !!!!!!!!!!!

Always loved to watch you build a wagon or buggy, maybe this year you can build a racing buggy!
Learned to paint airplanes with lacquer, epoxy and polyurethane, but none looked as nice as that enamel thinned with naptha. Will give that a shot on next ‘gotta look pretty’ paint project. Thanks.
Also loved the tire masking trip; one piece vs. many little segments.
lol watching paint dry, but it is a art in its self. great work always a joy to see your work.
I love that, no matter what you are doing, you strive for that above and beyond quality. Thanks for inviting us in the paint booth. (They look amazing BTW)
Thanks for the painting lesson! It is interesting that you don't use automotive paint. Your explanation makes total sense, I just never thought about it I will remember this for my future projects!
🙂 Real good technique from former paint chemist
That was much more entertaining than I would have imagined. I thought it would be like your sanding video. lol Thank you! Rick in east TN
Ahh, that masking tape peel was so satisfying! I've painted automotive steel wheels many times, but never thought to mask up like that... Quite agree about automotive paints on wood, they just don't work. Anybody who says 'paint is paint' is heading for a disaster.

Very, very nice.

Happy Friday Dave and Diane!
great job Dave enjoy your Channel very much
Old Bink's style paint gun!! I love those!! HVLP is the rage these days.
I think the top design of the gun looks more like a DeVilbiss model or a knockoff unit. Binks had a different area at the hook point if memory serves me correctly. However, a real painter can shoot with any type of gun!
Fancy looking wheels.
Great paint work with a pressure / siphon can. If you are self taught you have had lots of practice. Love that color.
Thank you sir!
Looks really sharp.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
thank you Professor...indeed
Amazing work! Nicely done.
The longer dry time also allows the paint droplets to flow and get a smooth shiny finish.
Thanks for sharing that method hopefully someone benefits directly
I know this is going to sound weird in a painting video, but I have learned more uses for C clamps in the last four years than the other 40 combined.
Thanks I can see the practiced method and can see why you follow that plan ,done a fair amount of finishing myself and I go in with a plan too most complex geometry first then fill in the fields.
Excellent video thank you so much .
Very informative tutorial Dave. That looks more like 1" wide tape than ½". There are various automotive products that would shine up that rubber. Happy weekend. Any snow yet? None in Southern Ontario Canada.
Most excellent.
Very nice painting.
Thanks so much for this!

Nice Job !
That's a really nice color, it looks great.
I'm surprised a wagon would have such a high gloss finish.
Happy holidays for you and yours. Have a blessed ending for this year.
What a nice Christmas color of red ❤. That's looking 👌 so nice before the holidays to be in a parade 😀.
Boy that was like watching paint dry. Anyway quite interesting
Excellent video. Iwish
Brother had a Grumman AA1A plane, He painted it with a WWII paint scheme Yellow wings and tail, Gray fuselage with red stripes. After the tail & rudder was finished and still wet a swarm of gnats landed on the freshly painted tail...
Little gnat foot prints all over . . . He was peeved . Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Beautiful, those wheels are simply gorgeous!!! Wonder if you could explain difference between a buggy, A surry, and a cutter?
You snucker by😂. You made me laugh. Good info, and good job. 🇺🇸👍🏻
good work good video
I really enjoyed your vid this week. I'm curious as to your mixture ratios. Looks you used a common siphon cup sprayer. I'm trying to better understand how to get a good result out of my painting. Thank you!
"What's today's job?"
"Watchin' paint dry."
"Woah, complicated."
"Didn't know masking tape sang his-and-hers serenades!"
And here I thought they were all shot in black, white and shades of grey........:^). That is a striking color.
I have always heard painting is 90% preparation. I get discouraged when it takes forever to sand something then clean it before painting. I have learned to take my time and 2 coats is always better than one.
We got about 3 inches of snow up here in Great Falls.
