none of my business sir but 3.30 into vid. do template in pieces is my guess..now ill press play n see how how did it.. hello to Jamie also.ty for 5 star video.
Morning guys! I love watching you learn! I’m going to be 70 years old in a few months and the one thing that keeps me going is learning something new everyday. I know you’re not even half my age Ian, 😐😂, but keep on keeping on! As we used to say. Love the show, love the projects, love you guys! 🥰
Ian is 155 years old but looks a 100 years younger than that 😁 I always try to learn something new myself on a daily basis, I'm 51 and I've been this way since I could walk and talk my parents told me
I’m 51 and I’ve been watching you since the cameras first started rolling. I used to have to search for where I could find your show. You were a breath of fresh air in an atmosphere of drama with a couple clips of actual car building. Just a guy and his dog building things thank you. Now we get to see you grow your skills on camera very brave and I’m digging it. Jamie encouraging you in the background is awesome! Thank you guys for letting us join you on this journey.
My pop was a machinist and I grew up making/modifying my own tools all the time. He also showed me that when working with soft metals, like aluminum and brass, you can often use simple tools, like a pocket knife to make holes and trim stuff down. Everyone thinks that you need a million tools to do all the things, but often, you may already have something that can do the thing you need.
I think that is something that makes their channel so unique. You can do this at home and try it. If you made a mistake you can always pivot back and start again, Ian says it all the time, let’s see where this goes. I’m wanting to see the finished product but no sense rushing through and then saying we could have done this or that. Make it your own thing and enjoy the journey
Ohh, one time, I had a pair of right angle needle nose pliers that I never used, I had them 10 or 20 years and never used them on anything. One day I decided to cut and grind them down for doing electronics stuff, and they worked great, but a few months later I needed a pair of right angle needle nose pliers to take a turbo apart, and didnt have one.
I've had a long time moto..."Just Do The Thing!"...Meaning just go try it, what ever it is! The worst that can happen is you figure out how not to do it! Watching this I think Ian is the one that has inspired that in me over the years! Thank you Ian!
You are sure getting into the metal craftsmanship of the old timers who built cars from scratch. Your efforts are admirable entertaining and you two are pretty groovy folks to hang with. Thanks for hauling us along always on your adventures.
Wow, that is so amazing starting with a flat piece of sheet metal and cutting it and forming it truly amazing on what you can do Ian to learn all the things that you have learned over the years wonderful all the time you spent working with other people and learning that’s what it’s all about. Thanks for a great video and Jamie. Thanks for the wonderful time on the camera. see you on the next one.!
Lovely, I've seen on TH-cam where an armorer will use a concave top of a wood stump while pounding to help form a large deep curve. Like Jamie was saying sometimes I guess you just have to have imagination and make your own tools. Very cool you guys. Thanks.
Ian, take us to class with you and show the lessons as you learn them. This is how we see a genus artist be the creative thinker that you are. Especially learning with everything you do and learning from every "mistake, screw up," or simply something that did not work out is the true measure of genus. Keep on pounding metal, and if at first you don't succeed get a bigger hammer.
Jamie is awesome with her camara shots ! The part of filming when Ian puts the slag hammer in the vise , you can see [because she captured the reflection ] the metal coming into shape. a real teaching moment , caught on film by a real professional .
Thank you! I was really trying to pay attention to where the metal was going to bend and capture it. I believe there will be more English Wheel episodes in the near future. Ian really enjoys working on it. ~. Jamie
Absolutely cool to see you work the metal into shape, just envision the shape you want to create and use the forming tools to bend it to your will! Impressive!
Yeah when it comes to body work I'm like a little infant😮scared and timid😢 but watching you and hearing the way you articulate what it is you're doing with your work has helped in the learning process❤❤❤
Ian: I have followed your show on TV since motor trend picked you up! I was delighted to find your new show on You tube! As so many of your associates are doing from motor trend. I especially love your show because you show the profession from a grass roots perspective! You show what an artisan can do with the minimum at home without all the extravagant tool systems that are available if you have the money whic most of us don’t have! Like you I collected tooling as I went along in my craft! Over a 54 year period . Episode #14 really shows what a guy or gal can do with minimal tools actually the basics to make a very complicated panel such as that upper triangular panel to finish the top of the right rear fender that meets the right door! I also love the fact that your working with your wife on these projects who is filming the projects and commenting and conversing along with you throughout the projects! My wife and I have been retired 2015-16 I from the Automotive restoration and hot rod , custom , both cars and motorcycles, we have mutual friends in the business, Gene Winfield, and Bruce Gregory. Gene as a mentor , Bruce as a close friend and fellow Technician! Bruce was who first turned me on to you early shows on “motor trend”. I really miss the business! But physically can’t do it anymore! I don’t know how Gene does it but more power to him ! He has been a blessing to many aspiring custom car builders and folks that just do it at home now as a hobby for me! I have my own retirement project at home + all the honey- doos that my wife can come up with! I just wanted to say I love what you do , along with all the folks that are out here watching the videos you and your wife produce! Keep up the good work! 👍🇺🇸🦡🇺🇸………
Ian as an old Tin Bender the square hole in your anvil is for the placement if various "Stakes". They are for forming metal shapes, one type is called a "Blow Horn" Check with a Black Smithing company. Hope this helps you!
Jamie, Asking great questions allows Ian to pass on his knowledge. Great job! You could even have Ian answer questions that are posted. Learning about The Tools, and their history, is enlightening, and is where lan really shines. Ian, Love your Flair. 👏 Keep up the great work mann ‼️
As a long time woodworker I am so impressed that metal forms so much better than wood. This panel is impressive as I watch you form it and make the metal go where you want. I have a little experience with metal, looks like I will have to try some more. Thank you, I enjoy watching the show.
I think that crease you were looking for would have been best achieved using a tipping die in the bead roller. None the less, beautiful work. I'm always looking forward to the next video! Jamie, your video have improved in leaps and bounds. It's second to none!
Ian, you're a really good explainer, which makes you a good teacher. It was always a mystery to me what was going on beneath the metal, like forming that tool to hammer in the shape. So great!
That looks great Ian , l think you're under estimating your abilities, nothing wrong with a bit of trial and error. You really seem to be taking to the forming of the metal and enjoying it too, which is the important thing. Keep at it , Yer doing a great job 👏 👍 👌
Best of the best! At 77 I wish I would have known this sooner! Amazing, Ian you taught me so much, thank you. Now to make the complete driver side rear fender.
Wow that was great to Ian get excited as he was learning, while teach us :) you guys are getting better all the time . Best show Ive seen in a long time and getting better every time ... thank you ..
It was super awesome to see Ian work his way through this one as "beginner" metal former. Really cool that he's able to accomplish what he wanted with just the tools he has around the shop. This is definitely giving me a boost of confidence for a project I'm working on.
Thanks Ian and Jamie. I’ve been trying to learn metal. Sometimes I find myself just staring at a piece and wondering what do I do next? How come what I did had the opposite effect of what I wanted haha! 😂 awesome 🙏!!
I think it’s a great compliment you and your wife because now it’s become interactive and you are answering questions that everyone has by her asking or commenting really enjoy your work
Working on my 67 Chevelle, I have done metal work I have never done before. Its been a blast. It has been made possible by watching shows. Thx Ian. 40 plus years in the bodywork business helps, too..😊. I have documented the whole process on TH-cam.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with doing metal shaping. You show how the "everyman" can do great work with simple tools. Jamies questions and comments are spot on. Car is looking great.
You guys are pros!!!...Ian is fearless and he is an entertaining commentator is such a calming voice in the face of certain disaster!..and Jaime has skills beyond her own belief....i love the groovy music she inserts into tedious time periods of hammering and English wheel...
So, not a metal master but clearly a metal Jedi. You’re definitely evolving and learning. That piece looks pretty damn good for a first run. I think you will definitely get it. Super fun watching you make it all come to life. Kudos.
I hear ya - living in Az working in the heat can be a killer. Good to see another video Ian - thanks for what you and your lovely wife do - I sure enjoy watching your adventures.
Wow! The look on your face when the piece went right into place was priceless! I don’t do bodywork anymore but I did it for 40 years and I never stopped learning. Watching you work your magic is refreshing even if you’re just learning new things like now. Keep up the great work and we’ll continue to cheer you on!
Excellent episode. Loved watching Ian being patient and learning as he went. Knowing that this new experience is going to become part of his "toolbox" just means more cool builds utilizing his new skills are in his future. Thanks for your hard work capturing his talents, Jamie.
This was a great process to watch. It’s great that you had someone to pass knowledge along to you and now you’re letting us in on the learning too. Kudos to Jamie on her filming and editing too.
Wow guys, really enjoyed this episode. I've been watching Ian long enough to know when he's really digging something. So cool watching your progress with metal sculpting and English wheel work. Old school rules! Much love guys
It's so exciting to watch the curves beating into submission! Here in Australia car smash repair companies are known generically as panel beaters! I never appreciated what that really meant before now! 😉 Great job FC Crew! I love ❤ you guys, it's so thrilling to see metal metamorphosis. Yeh, it's metal morphology! 🎉❤😮😊
Dear Guys, I really enjoyed watching you learn, Ian one of the things I thought of was to remember= it's just a piece of metal and there is a bunch more out there. I build custom Obsidian knives and over time I lose blades by breakage and it's part of the learning process. One heck a start for Ian. Jamie= Great music, perfect fit for this video.
Ian, very nice job. You know some people use a nice tall round log and dish out the end like a bowl to shape metal. That way you are not metal on metal. The shiner you make your metal tools the shiner your piece will be when worked. Thanks for the video Jamie.
Ian, I feel so selfish when your show comes to the end of an episode, the first thing that enters my mind is now I have to wait I check daily just in case you guys drop something, anything so yes I’m that ignorant fool, spoiled when watching greatness, I just can’t get enough, even with the world at my fingertips See what I mean I had to wait for your seasons to drop now, and now 1 to 3 shows a week I still look forward to every episode. Thank you Jamie I know this would not be possible without your foresight like your man said sometimes greatness needs to be believed in. God Bless you guys.
Is a thrill to watch you expand your knowledge and skill to create amazing shapes and curves. I'm anxious to see you jump straight to the bag and wheel for future projects... Go Ian...
That was amazing and impressive work done to that fender part. I was totally mesmerized watching you form. You are really resourceful in modifying tools to suit your purpose. Jamie- great camera work.
Remarkable, Ian! Thanks for taking a risk by showing something you weren't sure you would pull off. Watching you think your way through it is so engaging. Of course, you picked possibly the most complex set of compouund curves that are on that car. And you did it! Really, really great. -- I felt like even Jamie started getting quite for the last 1/3 or so; probably feeling amazed by the same realization as the rest of us, "holy shit, he's doing it!"
Wow !!!! Awsome work on that very complex panel. I was just as surprised as you when it bent around that tube . Keep going. Its looking soo cool so far.
Good Day Ian and Jamie! I just watched this episode and it was GREAT !! Ian did an Awesome Job on fabricating that piece! It was good to see the Professor do his Magic! Shoutout to Jamie for the Excellent Camera Work and Ideas! I love what Y’all do! 🔥🚗📹🤴🏻&👸🏻💯
We never know what we can accomplish until we apply ourselves. I thought you were going to make those pieces out of wood so you would have a mould, and then be able to make them out of fiberglass. Either way it's done Ian does not accept failure!!! Thanks for sharing.
Amazing work Ian, to take material that’s flat and mold it with whatever tools you have available is a talent not many possess! Jamie you have figured this filming and production out, you should be proud of yourself! Also the respect you both have for each other is wonderful to see!
As I’m watching I have to commend you because you still seem to have fun and enjoy the adventure - good on ya - My Dad would advise me not to take life or myself too seriously - not always easy but glad to see you put some enjoyment into what you do. Cool for us folks out here too
Hey guys! I’ve been following you for a while now and I must admit that this is THE BEST VIDEO YOU HAVE MADE!!! I love watching Ian realizing the potential and moving out of his comfort zone and learning new skills that will totally enhance his truly artistic ability! Good on you both! Jamie is getting very proficient at her videographer and editing skills! My favorite YT channel! ❤
I live in Houston, with humidity and heat, garage can get crazy hot, I mean where you can’t even be inside of it. I bought a small window unit AC, cut out a square in garage wall and installed it, and now can work all day in comfort, AND have no insulation or anything in the garage. You would be amazed at how cool it can keep it for cheap. It’s not even the right size for the square footage, supposedly way too small, but I will never go back, it was a life changer.
Unfrickingbelieveable!! Watched that form right before my very eyes!! Amazing! You better go right for the other side while your juices are flowing and shucking-n- jiving! Good stuff!
Excellent work, Ian. We have all learned what can be achieved with just the tools one has laying around. Patience and determination is the key. Thank you.
Happy Sunday! We beat the heat this week and Ian beat some metal! We have had a ton of requests for merch and we now have it!

Morning there! thanks for another great video guys!
none of my business sir but 3.30 into vid. do template in pieces is my guess..now ill press play n see how how did it.. hello to Jamie also.ty for 5 star video.
I love that you step outside of your box and are trying new things🎉🎉🎉
man youre great at what you can see before its made..
i dont see things untill ive tripped over them.
just sayin
Let’s not forget the beauty behind the scenes that works just as hard so we can enjoy the videos . Hi Jamie keep up the great work
Thank you! My pleasure! ~ Jamie
Morning guys! I love watching you learn! I’m going to be 70 years old in a few months and the one thing that keeps me going is learning something new everyday. I know you’re not even half my age Ian, 😐😂, but keep on keeping on! As we used to say. Love the show, love the projects, love you guys! 🥰
Me too I turn 70 in July my old man told me when I was a kid the day you stop learning is the day you die
Love ❤ it! Jamie's intuition is spot on Ian, the best is yet to come😊
Ps, looks like us new 70 yr olds love this type of art😉
Ian is 155 years old but looks a 100 years younger than that 😁 I always try to learn something new myself on a daily basis, I'm 51 and I've been this way since I could walk and talk my parents told me
Absolutely, I'll be 73.
I’m 51 and I’ve been watching you since the cameras first started rolling. I used to have to search for where I could find your show. You were a breath of fresh air in an atmosphere of drama with a couple clips of actual car building. Just a guy and his dog building things thank you.

One day I decided to cut and grind them down for doing electronics stuff, and they worked great, but a few months later I needed a pair of right angle needle nose pliers to take a turbo apart, and didnt have one.
We can all appreciate the work it takes to make custom parts and panels. Where there was nothing, Ian created a custom piece 1 of 1 so far.
It definitely takes a lot of work!
Ian, you are a true artisan! Your patience shined through on this one. Not just the cut and weld, but true craftsmanship. Bravo Sir, bravo!
I've had a long time moto..."Just Do The Thing!"...Meaning just go try it, what ever it is! The worst that can happen is you figure out how not to do it! Watching this I think Ian is the one that has inspired that in me over the years! Thank you Ian!
Yes!
You are sure getting into the metal craftsmanship of the old timers who built cars from scratch. Your efforts are admirable entertaining and you two are pretty groovy folks to hang with.
Thanks for hauling us along always on your adventures.
Our pleasure!
Thank you Ian and Jamie for providing content in that blazing hot out West.. I watch every video Jamie sends out to the world!!!!😊
You are very kind
Ditto 😊
Wow, that is so amazing starting with a flat piece of sheet metal and cutting it and forming it truly amazing on what you can do Ian to learn all the things that you have learned over the years wonderful all the time you spent working with other people and learning that’s what it’s all about. Thanks for a great video and Jamie. Thanks for the wonderful time on the camera. see you on the next one.!
rite on.... only 89 over here in the other mohave desert today here in lucerne valley ... love u2.. god bless....
Lovely, I've seen on TH-cam where an armorer will use a concave top of a wood stump while pounding to help form a large deep curve. Like Jamie was saying sometimes I guess you just have to have imagination and make your own tools. Very cool you guys. Thanks.
BZ! Love watching you work and learn a new skill set to improve your fabrication. This and the bug are my favorite projects so far.
Ian, take us to class with you and show the lessons as you learn them. This is how we see a genus artist be the creative thinker that you are. Especially learning with everything you do and learning from every "mistake, screw up," or simply something that did not work out is the true measure of genus.

Loving the end product always great to see Ian learn new ways to fabricate
Thanks for sharing your time with us.
It is great to be able to learn metal shaping along side of you.
Ian as an old Tin Bender the square hole in your anvil is for the placement if various
"Stakes". They are for forming metal shapes, one type is called a "Blow Horn"
Check with a Black Smithing company. Hope this helps you!
Jamie,
Asking great questions allows Ian to pass on his knowledge. Great job!
You could even have Ian answer questions that are posted.
Learning about The Tools, and their history, is enlightening, and is where lan really shines.
Ian,
Love your Flair. 👏
Keep up the great work mann ‼️
As a long time woodworker I am so impressed that metal forms so much better than wood. This panel is impressive as I watch you form it and make the metal go where you want. I have a little experience with metal, looks like I will have to try some more. Thank you, I enjoy watching the show.
My morning coffee and Ian & Jamie. It's great ☕
Happy Sunday!
I think that crease you were looking for would have been best achieved using a tipping die in the bead roller.
None the less, beautiful work. I'm always looking forward to the next video!
Jamie, your video have improved in leaps and bounds. It's second to none!
Ian, you're a really good explainer, which makes you a good teacher. It was always a mystery to me what was going on beneath the metal, like forming that tool to hammer in the shape. So great!
I'm amazed each and every time I watch, simple amazing
You have metal in your blood Ian great hand work , shaping and English wheel .
I love to watch you work. Jamie is doing a great job with the camera and editing.
That looks great Ian , l think you're under estimating your abilities, nothing wrong with a bit of trial and error. You really seem to be taking to the forming of the metal and enjoying it too, which is the important thing. Keep at it , Yer doing a great job 👏 👍 👌
Best of the best! At 77 I wish I would have known this sooner! Amazing, Ian you taught me so much, thank you. Now to make the complete driver side rear fender.
I really enjoyed to watch the way you formed that metal that was really something that guy is teaching something new.
Wow that was great to Ian get excited as he was learning, while teach us :) you guys are getting better all the time . Best show Ive seen in a long time and getting better every time ... thank you ..
It was super awesome to see Ian work his way through this one as "beginner" metal former. Really cool that he's able to accomplish what he wanted with just the tools he has around the shop. This is definitely giving me a boost of confidence for a project I'm working on.
Thanks Ian and Jamie. I’ve been trying to learn metal. Sometimes I find myself just staring at a piece and wondering what do I do next? How come what I did had the opposite effect of what I wanted haha! 😂 awesome 🙏!!
Far and away my favorite episode to date. The genuine excitement and discovery as the part came together was incredible.
I think it’s a great compliment you and your wife because now it’s become interactive and you are answering questions that everyone has by her asking or commenting really enjoy your work
Thank you 🙏
I'm happy to see you are learning along with the rest of us.
Working on my 67 Chevelle, I have done metal work I have never done before. Its been a blast. It has been made possible by watching shows. Thx Ian. 40 plus years in the bodywork business helps, too..😊. I have documented the whole process on TH-cam.

YOU ARE DEFINITELY AN AUTOMOTIVE ARTIST WITH AMAZING TALENT WHO REALLY COULD BUILD AWESOME MACHINE FROM SCRATCH. 😮😊.
What a FANTASTIC JOB....
Now we're talking! Glad to see you doing it by hand. Best video ever. Thanks for sharing with us today.
That was pretty amazing! Yeah at 71 I'm see some great work, giving me ideas and courage to try on my projects! Thanks guys. 😊
So, not a metal master but clearly a metal Jedi. You’re definitely evolving and learning. That piece looks pretty damn good for a first run. I think you will definitely get it. Super fun watching you make it all come to life. Kudos.
I feel like we are learning along with you Ian and that is just really awesome! Thank you for sharing your creative process with us.
I hear ya - living in Az working in the heat can be a killer. Good to see another video Ian - thanks for what you and your lovely wife do - I sure enjoy watching your adventures.
Never too old to learn new tricks.And cool enough to share it.
Wow! The look on your face when the piece went right into place was priceless! I don’t do bodywork anymore but I did it for 40 years and I never stopped learning. Watching you work your magic is refreshing even if you’re just learning new things like now. Keep up the great work and we’ll continue to cheer you on!
It's looking great. It takes a lot of patience and perseverance to work like you do 👍🏼 It's impressive. Thank you for sharing your videos.
Excellent episode. Loved watching Ian being patient and learning as he went. Knowing that this new experience is going to become part of his "toolbox" just means more cool builds utilizing his new skills are in his future. Thanks for your hard work capturing his talents, Jamie.
I’m totally amazed by how you moved that metal around! I learned so much. Thank you.
Ian, Old dog does new trick YES! IT'S HAMMER TIME and Jamie syncs music to the beat of the hammering AWESOMELY. YOU TWO ROCK THE FAB. WORLD. MIKE
You're an inspiration to us all. Using tools and techniques you've never used before without fear,
You’re journey with the English wheel is fascinating. Keep up the good work.
Love your style and your work, so many cool projects from your mind. Stay safe and keep hydrated and healthy
This was a great process to watch. It’s great that you had someone to pass knowledge along to you and now you’re letting us in on the learning too. Kudos to Jamie on her filming and editing too.
Freestyle forming at it's best. Thanks for sharing!
Wow guys, really enjoyed this episode. I've been watching Ian long enough to know when he's really digging something.
So cool watching your progress with metal sculpting and English wheel work. Old school rules! Much love guys
It's so exciting to watch the curves beating into submission! Here in Australia car smash repair companies are known generically as panel beaters! I never appreciated what that really meant before now! 😉
Great job FC Crew! I love ❤ you guys, it's so thrilling to see metal metamorphosis.
Yeh, it's metal morphology! 🎉❤😮😊
What a great episode. Great to see you learning and gathering skills while just doing it.
Dear Guys, I really enjoyed watching you learn, Ian one of the things I thought of was to remember= it's just a piece of metal and there is a bunch more out there. I build custom Obsidian knives and over time I lose blades by breakage and it's part of the learning process. One heck a start for Ian. Jamie= Great music, perfect fit for this video.
Thank you 🙏
In a world with so much BS and drama it is a pleasure to watch you learning ,thereby teaching as you go ,thank you ,love your videos
Ian, very nice job. You know some people use a nice tall round log and dish out the end like a bowl to shape metal. That way you are not metal on metal. The shiner you make your metal tools the shiner your piece will be when worked. Thanks for the video Jamie.
Im really loving the music selection in the videos, it has been a great mix of good tunes. I liked the drums when Ian was beating it over the dolly.
Love seeing Ian try new things, its always a learning process. I love seeing the English Wheel getting used.
Ian, I feel so selfish when your show comes to the end of an episode, the first thing that enters my mind is now I have to wait I check daily just in case you guys drop something, anything so yes I’m that ignorant fool, spoiled when watching greatness, I just can’t get enough, even with the world at my fingertips See what I mean I had to wait for your seasons to drop now, and now 1 to 3 shows a week I still look forward to every episode. Thank you Jamie I know this would not be possible without your foresight like your man said sometimes greatness needs to be believed in. God Bless you guys.
Is a thrill to watch you expand your knowledge and skill to create amazing shapes and curves. I'm anxious to see you jump straight to the bag and wheel for future projects... Go Ian...
😎😎
Fascinating stuff! We never get too old to build technique.
wow!!!!!! that was super kool! seeing Ian figure it out and not quit! kick ass!
That was amazing and impressive work done to that fender part. I was totally mesmerized watching you form. You are really resourceful in modifying tools to suit your purpose. Jamie- great camera work.
Watching you shape that metal was so satisfying to see great job my friend
Thank you both for the considerable efforts it takes to produce your videos. Stay relatively cool all.
Remarkable, Ian! Thanks for taking a risk by showing something you weren't sure you would pull off. Watching you think your way through it is so engaging. Of course, you picked possibly the most complex set of compouund curves that are on that car. And you did it! Really, really great. -- I felt like even Jamie started getting quite for the last 1/3 or so; probably feeling amazed by the same realization as the rest of us, "holy shit, he's doing it!"
Wow !!!! Awsome work on that very complex panel. I was just as surprised as you when it bent around that tube . Keep going. Its looking soo cool so far.
Another great show thank you guys! I got a wheel months ago and havent really done much with it. This was very imspiring!
Good Day Ian and Jamie! I just watched this episode and it was GREAT !! Ian did an Awesome Job on fabricating that piece! It was good to see the Professor do his Magic! Shoutout to Jamie for the Excellent Camera Work and Ideas! I love what Y’all do! 🔥🚗📹🤴🏻&👸🏻💯
Thank you so much for not cutting out the parts were you make mistakes. We all make them as humans this is how we learn.
We all make them!
We never know what we can accomplish until we apply ourselves. I thought you were going to make those pieces out of wood so you would have a mould, and then be able to make them out of fiberglass. Either way it's done Ian does not accept failure!!! Thanks for sharing.
Love watching you two work, thanks!
your knowledge and determination is amazing. Love watching a master at work
I love watching your mind work to solve problems while learning in real time!
Amazing work Ian, to take material that’s flat and mold it with whatever tools you have available is a talent not many possess! Jamie you have figured this filming and production out, you should be proud of yourself! Also the respect you both have for each other is wonderful to see!
Ian is so good He even surprised himself
That's what I try to do if you impress your self with what ever work you do than it most likely will turn out well
As I’m watching I have to commend you because you still seem to have fun and enjoy the adventure - good on ya - My Dad would advise me not to take life or myself too seriously - not always easy but glad to see you put some enjoyment into what you do. Cool for us folks out here too
No matter what you always come through, I enjoy to watch the process and progress.
Hey guys! I’ve been following you for a while now and I must admit that this is THE BEST VIDEO YOU HAVE MADE!!! I love watching Ian realizing the potential and moving out of his comfort zone and learning new skills that will totally enhance his truly artistic ability! Good on you both! Jamie is getting very proficient at her videographer and editing skills! My favorite YT channel! ❤
Thank you! WE are glad you are here!
Love it when you use old surf music.
Next vid 😎😎
I live in Houston, with humidity and heat, garage can get crazy hot, I mean where you can’t even be inside of it. I bought a small window unit AC, cut out a square in garage wall and installed it, and now can work all day in comfort, AND have no insulation or anything in the garage. You would be amazed at how cool it can keep it for cheap. It’s not even the right size for the square footage, supposedly way too small, but I will never go back, it was a life changer.
Your movements on the Wheel🎉 so much more precise😊 beautiful how that piece of metal just comes into shape❤
Unfrickingbelieveable!! Watched that form right before my very eyes!! Amazing! You better go right for the other side while your juices are flowing and shucking-n- jiving! Good stuff!
I’m lovin’ Jamie’s music selections.
Excellent tutorial!..Learning as we watch.
Thanks for the video folks.
Your sound has gotten so much better. Great work.
Excellent work, Ian. We have all learned what can be achieved with just the tools one has laying around. Patience and determination is the key. Thank you.
U can build anything u put your mind too. Mainly it is weather u have enough tools to do it in a timely manner…. Love seeing u work
Love the classic old Roskopp skateboard on the wall too, along with your work!!?!!
