Branding Irons & Tool Boxes | Engels Coach Shop

Branding irons are a signature of ownership in the west. After building 2 new tool boxes, these are branded with a rare one-iron family brand we built just for this chuck wagon owner. Thanks for following along in this chuck wagon rebuild.

Dave, your wagon is the most beautiful of anything mechanical I have seen built out of wood. You truly are a master of your and thank you for being a video creator.

Has anyone ever mentioned your background music? I really wish all other YouTubers would take a tip from you. Your music is both pleasant to the ear and so low as not to distract. So many others have music that is deafening or distracting. Thank you for being my favorite YouTuber for so many reasons.

Yee haw. It's Friday and time for an Engels Coach video!

In 1974, I worked at my Uncle Jake's ranch.
Learned how to drive a truck, a car, a tractor,
and my favourite, Mike the Horse. Snowflake
Arizona. F Bar Cattle Co. (Senator Jeffy Flake
was another cousin of Jake. Look up the Gilbert
23, if you want to see the demise of Jeffy, and his
son Austin. Happened right next door to Jeffy's
cousin, my older brother.)

Uncle Jake passed on, quite a few years ago, and
his wife, the surviving sibling of all my father's
family, a week or so. Tenth of ten to pass on.
Beautiful Lady. Uncle Jake, was a most impressive
man.

Your talk about brands "spurred" a memory for me.
(So did spurs.)

I realized, I have a wee bit in concert with you. David,
PLEASE keep these coming!

I look at this art, this precision work, this passion, and then I think of the crap that comes out of Detroit - I could cry....

[MrJoey]

The skill level I see in so many different forms of 'making' is astounding. I love this channel. That's a lifetime of learning on display.

[bobvogel]

Watching you use clamps to hold the toolbox parts together before nailing made me realize ONE of the differences in the quality of your work vs. mine. 🙂

[garrettswoodworx]

Once again I find myself enjoying the heck out of gaining knowledge that in all probability I will never make use of. As always, thanks for allowing us along on this wonderful journey! Stay well.

Great video and my bird boxes will never be the same again . Must make me a branding iron too, I can use it for pokering cider in the winter . Great video 👍🇬🇧

Once again the most enjoyable 20 minutes I have spent in a while

That short little blurb about making brands stand out better really caught my attention. Those little bits of knowledge I find really interesting and also make me wonder more about you. Thank you for all you share.

Tapering the steel and cutting the relief at the junctions can make the difference between a brand and a blotch! Tells me that he has been to some brandings.

[jjohnson]

I love to see how common items from that era like a toolbox can be so simple yet so functional. Just a good purpose built overall design.

[RobertFay]

*- Simple tool boxes...yes. But incredibly sturdy, too ! ! !*
*- It was interesting to learn about branding irons, Dave. Thanks.*

Glad to see you were gentle with the vise. The therapy must be working!!😂😂😂

[stevel]

Nailing everything by hand brought back memories for me. When I started in my trade as a cabinetmaker we were still hand nailing and gluing and clamping. About a decade later we were using nail guns. Anyway, this was great, it's fun to watch a true craftsman at work.

[tubehound]

Well done good and faithful servant. Stay safe

[MrPlankinton]

Wow 😲 Nails. It's rare that I see nails used on this channel.

[ditzydoo]

Our old family brand a Winged-7 was first filed by my 3rd great grandfather and is still used by the family today.

Mark of a true craftsman, puts slotted screws in with a driver!! Mind Blown!!
