Thanks, Tom. There's an interesting video in that group from 1918, making Ford wood spoked wheels. I enjoy woodworking but working in that wheel shop would get very old in 15 minutes. I'd suggest that wheel making video also should be linked to the forum if Adrian agrees?

Thanks for posting that one. I have seen some clips from it but not the whole thing.
Amazing to see how they did it. Often without gloves.

I have seen outtakes of that wheel making before, but not the whole thing!
Thanks for sharing!

Always nice to see those old-time videos. How times have changed.
