This old codger is really something to watch. He has the patience of Job. The work he does must cost a fortune.

I thought you might find this interesting. He did a series where he duplicated the Twenty Mule Team borax wagons. The large back wheels weighed over a half ton each.

Anyway, it's a lot more enjoyable than watching Bidet destroy the country. I'd love to hear Dave's thoughts on the direction of the country. Maybe Bidet isn't having much effect out in the Big Sky Boondocks...

Just amazing and thanks so much. Whoever wondered about how those huge wheels were made, especially two hundred years ago? Not I.
