Peter Czacho of AZ had this to say:

:Hello Pam,

Most of the Buckboard is basically Douglas Fir 2 X 4's for the framing and undercarriage components. I left the saw marks, cuts and other rough characteristics intact, for effect.

Used your 28" and 18" Light-Med Duty wooden wheels/metal rims and your Stub Axles.. Great wheels!  Quality build on them."







Rod Neverman used our 18" med duty waggon wheels with rubber tires to make this cart






MICHAEL NOSEWORTHY of VA used our steel wagon wheels to fabricate thiss wagon.  He said; "I’m making a wagon for my son’s wedding. My 9 month old granddaughter and her 10 month old cousin will be pulled down the isle at an outdoor wedding by my granddaughter’s 6 year old cousin.  The entire wagon will be painted white."







Alexis' step father fabricated these wagons using our nedium duty wagon wheels.






Joel Bernstein of CT fabricated this peddlers cart using our 24" medium duty wagon wheels.  Joel had this to say:  This cart was stick build out of Pine for my daughter's wedding reception. It was displayed as a Candy Cart where guests could stuff their own bag of goodies.

I used a LED string lighting under the canopy for a dramatic lighting effect.  The Wagon Wheels and the stub axles added immensely to design as you can see.

They weren't painted so that they would contrast with the white cart. R & P Trading's Wagon Wheels are so authentic and sturdy.They are the "real deal" and I could not make a better recommendation.

Best regards,
Joel Bernstein

Thanks.

Steve , from FL sent us photos of the cannon he fabricated using our 24" medium duty wagon wheels rather than ou cannon wheels.  Still came out nice.  He had the following to say:

"Hi Pam, included are two photos of the cannon I built using your wheels. I bought the 1" bore cannon barrel and built the carriage myself, it's been fired several times and makes for a great time.

I had difficulty in finding good wheels for this project until I found your website, these worked perfectly and look great.






Phil in Mass. used our 36" heavy duty, metal hub wagon wheels in the fabrication of this wagon with his pizza oven on it.  He had this to say:

Ronnie"



 
Andrea Wright fabricated this cart using our 24" med duty wagon wheels and had this to say"

Hello!

We absolutely loved the wheels! My dad and I enjoy doing some woodworking together and were so excited to find your products! I work in a hospital and wanted a way to spread some cheer to our staff members and local nursing facilities that we partner with. I took my idea to my dad and he came up with this idea for a cart that could be wheeled around the hospital. My dad, Ken Wright, built it from scratch and it turned out better than I could ever imagine. I currently change the theme of the cart every month but for National EMS week, I changed the theme daily for my ambulance department. I’ve even had friends borrow the cart so their kids could run a lemonade stand!




 


Christopher Earick, of Georgia fabricated this golf ball cannon using our 20" medium duty wooden wagon wheels.






Nick Galvan, of Indiana, used our 24 inch med duty wagon wheels tpo fabricate this donut cart. 

"He had this to say; "The wheel and axel kit were extremely easy to install on the donut cart that I made. We decided we wanted donuts rather than a cake at our wedding and wanted something different to display them.

I would highly recommend these wheels! They were sturdy, well built and have received numerous complements."






Susanna Poeysti. of Kentucky, fabricated this "Desert Cart" using our 20" medium duty wagon wheels.  She had tis to say; "We used them for a dessert cart. We painted them black. I think it is a great product that can be used in many different ways! " = Susanna





Stanley Rowe, of
Michigan, used our heavy duty wagon wheels in the fabrication of this wagon,  He said, :Here are a few pics. The first is how I painted the wheels one side at a time. The second is the wheels installed on the nearly complete wagon with blue painters tape on metal rim to protect till moved to destination. The third is the completed wagon in my friends front yard.

Thank you for such a fine product "





Kent Bacon, of Michigan, used our 28" med. duty wagon wheels to fabricate this cart.  Kent also said "I was very happy with the way it turned out.  It pushed & pulled well and the harness helped distribute the weight."





This a wagon being created and fabricated by Bryan Elbell, of Florida, using out heavy duty metal hub wagon wheels.



Bryan had this to say:

"The buckboard wagon is finally done. I was slammed at work until Christmas break, and with the weather and work I had to piece it along slowly.

Here's a few pictures of it when I rolled it out of the workshed for the first time for the trip to the front yard area.

And some final pictures as it sits completed.

The wheels and axles are from RP Trading.

The wood is rough hewn Cypress and Eastern Red Cedar. Thanks to The Pasco Sawmill and Tree Service in Pasco County, Florida for the wood. I chose Cypress and Cedar for the wood because of their tolerance of water here in Florida. They won't soak up and expand like our other woods do.

The flowers in the back are in a 36" x 36" x 6" solid box made of HDPE, which is a solid high density poly ethylene plastic, with drain holes and a support platform underneath. Florida weather will rust and rot out galvanized metal, so I went with something that won't rust or rot in a couple of years. The small rustic lanterns up front are solar led lights I found that match the color of the wagon, and the hooks I found are from a local nursery.







The wagon is stationary as I intended it to be a flower cart more than anything. I would've liked to be able to give the neighborhood kids a ride now and then pulling it with my tractor, but Florida DMV laws are strict when it comes to anything that can be attached and pulled down a road, and they would've required lights and reflectors, so I left it as a flower cart.

Any other questions, don't hesitate to call me.

"No dogs were harmed in the building of this wagon". They insisted on trying it out...!!"

Bryan Elbell

The wagon is sitting on pavers with a Cypress wedge glued to them, 2 on both rear wheels.

The decorative gears on each side by the tires are actually old rusty shelf brackets. They help keep the wheel drops at a good angle, but are mainly for decoration. The front flowers are sitting in a 36" window box help up by a 4" x 4" x 36" piece of Cypress.

"The big day in South Boston is March 17, commemorating the day in 1776 when the British evacuated, thanks to cannon delivered to Dorchester Heights by Col. Henry Knox.  We ordered your wheels to complete our Revolutionary-era cannon, and here at the September Street Festival Colonel Knox showed the cannon off to a group of pirates. 

The wheels really made it.  Will be using this cannon in South Boston history events for years to come."



Sara Swanberg, Props Supervisor, and Scenic Designer Dane Laffrey of The Public Theater, 425 Lafayette St. NY, NY 10003, was good enough to remember to send us a photo of how they used the "Heavy Duty" wagon wheels that we sent them.  Thank you Sara.

The wagons load sure appears quite heavy.

Visit the Public Theater's website.  If your in the area you may wish to stop by and see a Production.  Check their schedule......   https://publictheater.org/

Whoever constructed the wagon did a great job.





Zee of Connecticut was good enough to provide us photos of his project using our Light Duty metal hub wagon wheels.

He wrote:  " We  decided that on our first attempt we would build a simpler cart based on the movie "UP" and then go from there.  (Didn't figure on the shortage of Helium, which put a slight damper on the finished project.)  Took it to a festival for fun and had a good time.   While at the fest we noted that there were a great many visitors with dogs vs those with small children.  So the next cart  concept to go along with the "UP" cart is a small dog house version of a balloon cart w/ paw print balloons."



Bruce Hermann  of Minnesota used our light duty metal hub wagon wheels with rubber tires in the fabrication of this that he uses in weddings.  He wrote:   "The cart wheels were exactly what I was looking for. High quality construction. Will definitely use your company on future projects. Thanks
RP"

"Hi Ron

This is for Naturipe (largest Blueberry producer in the world) but they grow other berry's as well as Avocados and this cart was built for the Alvarado's but was so large they did cranberry's on the other side. This was a hit and other customers where asking where they got this so could be more in the future.

I was happy with this products and our builders also thought these were well built. The fact they were raw was also helpful and we just did a clear coat on them but could of stained if needed. Thanks.

Vinnie"

Randal Mosely, of Illinois ordered 4 of our light duty wagon wheels for his wagon project.  He send us this photo and said:

"Hi, I wanted to send you the picture you requested of my wagon with the wheels I ordered from you.  Here it is.  Plants will mature more later but this is what is looks like on May 30."

"I built the wagon several years ago and did my own wheels, but the wheels would deteriorate.  So I upgraded to R&P Trading wheels for this year.  I grow perennials and annuals in several beds around the yard, with the wagon being the centerpiece.   The wheels really look nice."

Thomas Bucolic, in Il. called us and wanted 4 of 28" heavy duty metal hub wagon wheels to use on an old buggy that he had just procured.  He had the hub hole bored out to 1" from 7/8".  It had pnuematic wheels on it, and he wanted a more realistic set of wheels for it.  He gave us the specifications he needed.  We had the heavy duty wagon wheel hubs bored out to a 1" hub hole to fit his current axle spindle.  Fortunately; the width of the hub on them from side to side was such that they would fit fine.  Tom sent  some photos of the buggy as it was when he bought it.  Upon completion of the project he is going to send us photos, and we know the new wheels will add a great deal to esthetic appeal to his buggy.

Below are the before and after photos of the buggy.  Thank you Tom.
