Simply fascinating how the wheels are made for the Borax wagons.

 Enjoy!!








Do you still use Borax? I do!

  1. That was really interesting. Stuff I never think about. Going to watch the next video in a few minutes.
    Yes,I still use Borax but the Boraxo Powdered Hand Soap. Keep a container by the laundry room sink. Great stuff. Do you have some of that?

    1. We keep Lava soap by the utility sink - that stuff gets rid of any dirt! (and don't ask me how I know it tastes terrible....)

    1. I have some of the mules left - don't know where the wagon is though - probably buried in the bottom of my old toy box.

  3. Even more. Find the section about swinging the team around curves on this website.

    Describes the job the mules had based on position in the team.
    Probably easier to fly an airplane than to drive the team. :)

    1. Amazing to think that originally they were made with hand tools, isn't it?
