I know for a fact that the buggy in the thumbnail is how you get to blackwater early. In all seriousness though i remember my grandmother telling me that once upon a time it took days or even weeks to get from one big city to another. Now you can go halfway across the country within hours. Before she died she told me, probably because i loved back to the future, "When i was a child electricity and cars were nothing but a dream thats why you should always believe that you can do something even if it takes a long time its still victory.

We used to live in Creighton, Nebraska where an Amish settlement was just outside of town. They used to drive their black carriages up and down our street every other day.

That's where my dad is buried. On the rez.

@@ArizonaGhostriders Wooden spoke wheels. I've seen pictures of people with 1920s cars parked in a stream in order to keep the wood in the wheels swelled up so they don't fall apart. Looks like a pleasant summer activity, especially if you have beer. Could you do a video on wooden wheel construction?

@@lawrencelewis2592 I can. Should probably find a wheelwright....hmm.

@@ArizonaGhostriders That guy hammering the rim onto the spoke looks like a good guy to talk to. Part of the wheel is called the "felloe" I have heard, but I'm not sure what part that refers to. I am interested in knowing what's what.

Love these videos. Nice and short, but full of info. Would you mind doing a video on the Colt Pocket revolvers (1849 and 1862 especially) and how they were used in the old west? I've heard a lot of unusual things about them, such as them being common military sidearms and being favored by some lawmen, but there seems to be surprisingly little concrete info out there on them compared to their larger brothers.

@ArizonaGhostriders 3 года назад

I will. In fact...I'm thinking of getting one.

@@ArizonaGhostriders That makes two of us! I just need to decide if I want a BP 1862 Pocket Police (which has the nicest lines of any of the Colt revolvers, in my opinion) or the Cimarron '62 pocket .380 ACP conversion. I don't have any BP, bullets, nor caps right now, but I do have a mountain of .380 and nothing pleasant to shoot it through (just boring practical mouseguns). But I need to get into BP eventually, it looks like a ton of fun and I already have a Colt 1861 Navy reproduction as a fancy desk decoration.
