Excellent film. I loved the train analogy he used. I also like his comments on the "troubled" youth being do'ers and not sitters. We need more men like him in society today. His comments on being like a bent spring and dueling with yourself for your entire life after serving also strike home with me.

Many times I've thought of making a large pneumatic tire'd wheel barrow. From the opening clip of the video, it appears I'm just re-imagining something they were doing over a hundred years ago.

You know Eric, if I were you I'd be tempted to repost this in either the General Tools Forum or Free Parking. I think it applies to more than just the old tools audience. I don't usually cruise this part of the site and just happened to click on it.

I'd put it in the General Tools portion personally.

You are probably correct. I thought the vintage machinery and old school attitude made it fit here best.

Excellent!

Awesome!

Inspiring!

Profound!

So glad I watched it.

Make it a sticky somewhere?

These options have pretty much removed from the schools today.

I would have never made through high school if it hadn't been for wood shop and my half day machine shop classes.



Thanks for sharing.
