When a Woodworker Builds a Wagon 

Thank you very much John.

Thank you, will do.

my papa hand built me wooden toys when I was little, a rocking horse, a train, some trucks. I really never truly appreciated them until I started wandering around youtube watching stuff like this.

Thank you. I like the idea of dating this piece. I'm going to do that.

Mike Farrington Mike just an FYI..... don’t use a sharpie to sign it... A pro Woodturner and woodworker I know said they can bleed and or fade. He said go to an artist store or Hobby Lobby and get an acid free marker and then what ever you sign or date will last a lifetime.

@@ronh9384 hmm, my papa used a wood burner. properly permanent :)

@@thefirebuilds Have to agree. If you're going to sign it, burn it!

Thank you. Thats just me trying to keep the viewers on their toes.

Thank you.

Agreed. I loved my wagon as a kid. I hope my little guys loves this one.

Thats great to hear. Thank you very much.

Thank you. Its been a great wagon so far.

Yep, just brilliant! So satisfying I imagine too Mike!

Thank you very much Matthew, somehow I don't think that is going to happen. You Keep watching and I'll keep posting.

Ha! Love it.

That is such a nice compliment. I was just watching some old Norm videos last night.

Thank you. Good tip.

Thank you. So far its been a fun and useful addition. We take it out almost every weekend. Trips to the lake, the park, it really helps hauling kids and gear.

Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you.

Thank you. I must admit I am truly heart broken over what has happen to Notre Dame. I am lucky enough to have been able to travel to Paris a few times. Notre Dame is a place I never miss, I have spent many hours sitting in, walking around, studying, and absorbing all it has to offer. I had already planned to take my kids to visit, now they probably won't be kids by the time its rebuilt. Lets hope its restored to its former glory within my life.

@@MikeFarrington If you do decide to come over again, you are forever cordially invited à chez nous while you are over here.

@@joeatkins4470 Thank you, that is very kind.

Thank you Andrew.

Thank you, I hope you are right.

That you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. Will do.

Thanks 👍

Thank you David.

Skis would be totally cool. Great idea.

Thank you very much.

Thank you Josh.

Ours are close in age. Thank you.

Its like magic. I'm just trying to keep everyone awake.

Thank you. We will see in the coming years if he will take an interest. I think it would be fun to have him around, but I wouldn't pressure him to get into woodworking.

@@MikeFarrington Oh absolutely, they should do what interests them, not what interests the parents :) Hopefully he at least creates fond memories of working together and sometimes that can inspire people later in their lives!

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you. I hope you are right.

Thank you. I would love to have seen the Beach Boys in concert.

Thank you. Its a work in progress.

Thank you very much Andrew.

Thank you. I have room for another kid, sure.

Its a great song for sure.

Thank you very much.

Happy to hear you like the video. Thank you very much. The sponsor thing is an interesting topic, the comment section is probably not the place to talk about it....

Thank you Mike.

Thank you very much Mark.

Thank you Geek.

Thank you. The apprentice really likes the wagon.

Thank you Paul.

I hope so. Time will tell.

Good point. I hadn't thought that we could look back on this in 10 or 15 years, that will be great fun.

Thank you.

That is a really good piece of music trivia. I'm going to go back and listen to them back to back looking for influence. Thank you.

Thank you, we have used it a ton. It's now got a few dents from use, but still looks pretty cool.

I thought about that, but ended up keeping it simple. I like the idea though.

Totally awesome, kids projects are fun.

Thank you. I hope you are right.

Thank you.

Thank you, thats great to hear.

Thank you very much.

Thank you Tom. Let me check on the floating shelf video.

Thank you very much.

Sorry about that, check my website. Its just my name.

Thank you.

Thank you very much. Fortunately I just started wearing glasses so that problem will solve itself.

Thats great to hear. Send me an email via my website.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much John.

Thank you for the input. I think carriage bolts would be stronger, but the screws I used are strong enough.

Thank you very much. I hope my kiddos have fond memories of this wagon too. That would be really neat.

Mike Farrington I’m sure they will. It’s the basic stuff that can be used for whatever a kids imagination can come up with that will stick with them and I’m sure that the times that you play with them with it will be a great memory for them as well. I can clearly remember pulling my baby brother around with him sitting in our old wagon. Also when they get older I’m sure that they will want to add their creative marks to it giving it even more personality. I have to say that yours looks like it is better able to handle outdoor play better than my old one could.

@@surviverskywalker6515 I really hope to see my little boy pulling his baby sister around in this very wagon. That would be really special.

Thank you. I picked up a macro lens recently.

Mike Farrington - well we appreciate the setup time, and also appreciate the polish on the chisel!

Thank you.

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Thank you Chris.

Thank you Keith, my pleasure.

Thank you, but that is giving me way too much credit.

Why thank you Shaun. If you find yourself in the Denver area, I'll happy give you a tow.

Thank you. I really like the rounded front edge as well as the rounded front rail. I totally agree it really helps give the wagon some stance. Kinda makes it look fast.

Thank you very much.

Wheeee!

Thank you. Great to have you onboard. Wouldn't it be Nice is another great song!

Thank you very much Bert.

Thank you.

Your very welcome Mike!😎

Thank you. Seeing The Breach Boys live would have been really neat.

It was The Beach Boys and Chicago in an outdoor show. They then all took the stage together and made some MUSIC! Also got to see Bob Dylan and The Band before he got too weird. Good Old Days. I was friends with the Guys in the band Kansas. Rich always called me to be his goalie in fooseball when they were in town. I saw them when they were called “White Clover” in the National Guard Bld In Atchison KS in 1972 or 1973.

@@MJ-nb1qn Thats pretty cool. I have a pretty big fan of Kansas as well, I had no idea that they went by a different name for a time.

Weeee!!!!

Thank you.

Thank you. Its a real treat to build a project for my kiddo.

Thank you Curt.

Thank you very much and thank you for the song recommendation. I'll look it up.

Thank you very much.

Thanks James!

Ha! Gotta keep you on your toes.

Ha! Good luck with that!

Thank you. Yes it is!

There will be a cooler in this thing some time this summer, and there will be beer in the cooler. No joke, I sized this to fit one of our small coolers.

Mike Farrington Man, that needed to be an end cap to the video. P.S. The beer cooler fits perfect. [Fade to black]

@@Purveyorofawesome I like it!

Ha!

Thank you. I will give that a listen.

Thank you.

Hopefully this is the first of many.

Thank you. The second kid is 4 weeks old. We age beginning to settle in to being a family of four.
