Barbie The Welder is an American metal sculptor, published author of six books, and an advocate for the skilled trades from Pompano Beach, Florida.
Growing up in a deeply creative home, Barbie’s Mom is a published cartoonist and her Dad a jack of all trades, Barbie was encouraged by both parents to work with her hands and mind to create. Inspired by the movie Cast Away, starring Tom hanks, Barbie attended an adult welding program at Elmira, New York Boces in November 2007 and was hired at Cameron Manufacturing And Design in Horseheads, New York in March 2008 where she learned the art of welding and fabrication from the brilliant craftsman she worked with. Barbie took her fabrication skills home and taught herself how to design and create art in her garage after work at night and on the weekends.
Barbie quit her job she loved to realize her dream and become a full-time artist September 1, 2014.
Because of the influence Bob Ross had on her growing up, Barbie began teaching how to weld art through her TH-cam channel in 2015 after not being able to find resources to learn.
Soon after she was invited by a publisher to write a book teaching how to weld art, and How To Weld Horseshoe Art; 30 Projects You Can Easily Weld At Home was born. Barbie went on to write and self publish five more books, How To Weld Scrap Metal Art; 30 Easy Welding Projects You Could Make At Home, How To Weld Silverware Animals Metal Art Welding Projects For Fun and Profit, The Inspiration Blueprint; How To Design and Create Your Inspired Life, Fuck You Fuel; How To Turn Shit Into Sugar, and The Artist Guide To Branding, Marketing and Selling Art Online.
Working with Bogi Latiner for a month in 2017 on Bogi’s Girl Gang Garage all woman’s frame up build of a 57 Chevy pick up later unveiled at Sema became a mentorship for Barbie that continues to help her grow herself and her business. Barbies other inspirations include Indian Larry and Billy Lane both who caught her attention through the TV series biker build off in early 2000. The craftsmanship and creativity of both men spoke to her soul.
Barbie started out riding on the gas tank of her dad‘s Honda motorcycle because she was too little to hold on sitting behind him, so when she was asked by Jesse James Dupree, lead singer of Jackyl, to design and create two sculptures for Harley Davidson she jumped at the chance driving the 24 hours to Sturgis by herself from NY and sculpting HOGs 35th anniversary sculpture live at Sturgis motorcycle rally at the Pappy Hoyle Campground and then she returned home to sculpt Harley Davidson’s 115th anniversary sculpture in her garage which was later presented to Harley Davidson on stage during the Jackyl concert at the 115 anniversary celebration in Milwaukee.
Barbie has welded live at Americade Motorcycle Rally, SEMA show in Vegas for Miller Welders, Harley Davidsons 115th Anniversary, and at shows and events up and down the east coast.
Barbie has designed and created sculptures for Miller Welders, the American Welding Society, Chicago Pneumatic, Carolina Shoe Company, two cities and clients in many countries.

Barbi you are the real deal, nice to see a woman at work, nice table, nice shop, nice job...glad you didn't pour a glass of wine on this job...cheers
+blakkkatt9 lol I'm a beer girl!😜🍻💙👩🏭
I think I've found my kindred spirit!Girl you ROCK!
+Zoran Bilbiloski 😊Thank you!
I just bought the same thing.
I subscribed to your channel.
I like your style!!
Nice job on the table, I built one already that I lost in a fire and learned a couple things along the way.
I didn't notice on yours but I found you really need to clamp the frame pieces to the table before tacking for a perfectly flat table.
Some work from the inside out, you went from the perimeter. It's all good!!
I'm a female welder/fabricator myself. It is so refreshing to see other women doing this.
+Christie Turner proud of you girl!!
Barbie you’re the real deal!
Nice table and welding technique
Great video - I was going to build myself another table, but getting a Certiflat make way more sense. Thanks for sharing. The 3X4 footer looks like it would work great for me if I put some legs and locking wheels on it. Very cool.
I think these are great tables, no matter how precise you think it is made learn to use a square and level as you build.
Just thought I would tell you,I have learned a lot from watching your videos,I have been welding for a long time,but I still seem to learn something from every video,I love the table,gotta get me one.
Great to see a proper real review on a product,I need a level table too,how I,be got to now on my wobbly table hell knows!!aloha from Ireland,great videos!
+tom mcloughlin I'm honored you would take your time to watch! Thank you!💙👩🏭
Nice I just ordered one last week still waiting on arrival ready to put it to work thanks good stuff
+Brand O Nice!
well done girl you show them
Hey Barbie, I just found your channel today and I had a visual of a Barbie Doll all rigged out as a welder.
Okay, so I have an overactive imagination, it does come in handy when fixing stuff or making things [welding] for projects around the school I work at. Gotta love those Fab Block Tables, but I cant afford one, so I am in the process of making my own fixturing welding table.
thanks for this video and I would have struggled with getting that beast up on the table (thanks for showing that!)
Had to subscribe this lady is the real deal👍
Just found your channel and subscribed! Not only can Barbie weld but she is an attractive lady! Keep the vids coming!
+constructiontech1970 Thanks!
cool video look forward to seeing what projects you do with that awesome table
+MRTYREMULISHA Just finished a small production run and having the ability to fixture cut my time by 75%!! This thing is going to pay for it self in about two weeks!💪🏻💙👩🏭
It is so awesome to see you work... Much respect... God bless you
+anwingm Thanks for taking your time to watch my videos!
Liked and subbed. Very nice table.
A beautiful woman that welds, awesome.
Just saw this video and now I'm about to check out your others.
I really gotta stop watching welding videos late at night. It always makes me wanna
go out to the shop and weld something. Something very hypnotizing about watching welding.
Best skill I ever learned.
Thanks for the video.
+Bruce L. My pleasure!
Great job. Enjoyed watching. Look forward to seeing more videos.....
+ltbernard Thanks! I post one to two videos a week, if you're not already subscribed make sure you do so you can stay caught up! If there are any projects you would like to see send me a message! Thanks for watching!💙👩🏭
I weld stuff on my channel and this project is on my to do list except a scrap build. Nice
Will be very cool to see that! Happy welding!
That was a pretty well organized shop. I wish mine was like yours.
It’s only like that for five minutes after I clean it then I start a job and all hell breaks loose!😜
Good video. Congrats on the new table.
+Danylo66 I appreciate you taking the time to watch it!! Thanks!😊
Good to see a woman in the trade !
Sweet table, great job.
Thank you!
@@BarbieTheWelder Wanted to let you know that I start a one year welding school this fall !!! Can't wait - I love all your videos - thankyou so much, sincerely ⚡👁⚡.
Excellent work. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!!
Nice table. Good to see your sub count rising because you deserve it. I will never understand people who feel the need to thumbs down a video. If you don't like it, go find something else to watch. They probably thumbed down the eclipse too. It was really cool. ken
+gmctrk63 lol Ken on the thumbs downing the eclipse!😜 I'm not everyone's cup of tea but I'm cool with that! How boring would the world be if we all liked the same stuff? Unless it's welding hunting fishing guns dogs and beer then it would be a beautiful place!😁
True, add cruising down the road on 2 wheels, and it would be perfect!
BarbieTheWelder ,Th if sounds like my life, fabricating, hunting ,fishing, relaxing with friends over a cold beer . You have it going on girl!!!
Sweet! Nice Job and Smile
I just heard about you from Mrhevyshevy. That's a really nice table. My wife used to do a little craft welding but can't anymore do to heart problems and an ICD (pacemaker ). So she has been doing wood working. Also, I speak from experience, get some knee pads and maybe a mat to stand on. After 28 years of working on concrete and crawling under and climbing over machinery and conveyors my knees are shot, my feet, hips and back hurt. So, protect the rest of your body as you do your eyes and hands. I will be watching more videos.
Thank you that’s excellent advice!! Please tell him I said thanks you!!
Cooooool female fabricator that's rare in Australia. I've never seen one in Australia
that could be your next project,a mcgregor sculpture i,m sure McGregor would but it!! keep up the cool videos !!
+tom mcloughlin That would be sick! Thanks! 💙👩🏭
I was waiting to see how you were gonna move that beast around, oh well. Subbed!
Lol thank you kindly!!!
We love our Fab Block. Congrats on the upgrade.
+Weld.com I did a small production run today and the ability to fixture cut my time by 75%! I'm in love!!😍
Very Nice!!
Typically Awesome!!!
+Jack Hilterbrandt Thank you kindly!
Nice work, that's a good piece of equipment, you really need to build some sort of hoist for your garage, i can see you are low on space but it will be worth it.
+Bojan Maksimovic I have a hook in the ceiling I can hook a pulley to but the table weighs approximately 350 pounds and I know the hook won't hold it.
Saw this on another TH-cam channel. Very cool.
+Elizabeth A Mizdail Thank you!
You are beautiful, and the fact that you are a woman welding makes you even more appealing. Great vid and greetings from uk : ) x
+Jules Webb Thank you Jules! Greeting from Erin, NY 😊💙👩🏭
BarbieTheWelder you are welcome. I am mainly a woodworker/carver, but also occasionally weld and make metal sculpture. A fab table is what i need, so thanks for the inspiration. Subscribed : ) x
+Jules Webb Thanks for your support!
BarbieTheWelder oh, damn...you're only about 90 mi SW from me.
Sis i love the grind. Over time it all pays off! HogOn
I just stumbled across your videos They're pretty awesome ...keep'em coming
+andy kosh Thanks for your support Andy!!💙👩🏭
Another video worth watching twice. Thanks!
Truly only Fab Welders can think ten steps ahead in order to see the BIG PICTURE.
🇺🇸👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤❤❤❤ love your video we need more women to get in fabricating and Welding Bob Elkhart Indiana
Thank you!🥰
I love how everything slots together. This table would be great to put together with my powerimig welder. Heck even a small powerarc stick welder could be used to put one of these together unless I'm missing something
Great job very informative
You sure got your strength
I'm impressed with your work. Good job welding. You just got a new subscriber.
Thank you kindly George!!💙👩🏭
Cool. I might fet one aswell. I want to get into welding and machineing lathing and milling.
+STAGING & LIGHTING SensatioN I love machining and lathing and milling but it's been a couple years since I've had a chance. It is fun!
I love this video
Thank you kindly!☺️💙👩🏭
You have beautiful hair. Do you ever worry about catching it on fire? I love the table. I am interested in seeing what tooling works best for it (clamps etc..).
+Darrel Wilson thank you and yes I've signed it a couple times, stinky! I have a couple clamps that fit in the holes that work wonders even on small parts. 💙👩🏭
Miss Barbie I like what you fabrique
+Carlos Linarez Thank you kindly!!
Awesome, I like your methodology first things first.... throw away the destructions 😂🤘 epic
Thank you kindly Mike!!!
Awesome! You Rock lady!
Great job.
Thank you kindly!!
You are very diligent... And pretty also...
+Chetan Chunekar 😊
very good
Good work girl keep them coming 😍
Wow! All that work would definately build up an appetite. Wanna go to dinner? Lol
+Ryan Millsap I love food!
Excellent presentation BarbieTheWelder. I hope you don't mind but i posted this video to You Tube Machinist. It is a great group and lots of good people on there.Keep up the great work. Terry from Texas
I appreciate your support! Thank you kindly!💙👩🏭
Mädels wie du lassen mich an die gutaussehende Frauen power glauben.!!
Looked like a lot of work to put together? I'm going to lite a Bong and weld. I guess I'm not going to be getting one of those tables, just yet! LOL
+GeneralAlex4 Lmao! It's not hard at all. If I wasn't filming it would have taken me about 4 hours to fabricate.
Nice job on the table and videos. I know the prep and weld time would be much greater, but after going through the build yourself would TIG be better for heat/distortion control? The tab and slot box design creates all the strength and stability. The weld beads just keep it together. Don't get me wrong I am a huge fan of the MIG process, but TIG is such a finesse process when you need heat control.
+Michael B TIG was my preferred method but I didn't have my new TIG at the time. 💙😊
First thing, a better microphone setup. Try a Rodeo shotgun mike, they're reasonably priced and work great. Make a video detailing the video equipment you're using and let the community help you. I was a machine shop production manager for many years and women make great welders. Keep up the good work.
+Charles Lukey Thanks for the information Charles and for taking your time to watch the video!💙👩🏭
A hot day in the shop indeed ^^
Wow from a welder and rider everything about is attractive
You Rock ! Great Job,
Thank you!
Gr8 job first and foremost. I've seen people build their own and now i see you can purchase it and put together. Was this an expensive buy or do you think building from scrap would be cheaper. I looovvve ur work.
Thank you so very much for the love! I appreciate you!!
Ну ты вообще мастер. Не каждый мужик сможет, умница.
I subbed as soon as you threw out the instructions lol
😉
gettin' fancy with your intro...nice
+CCs Welding 😁 My 12 year old suggested I step my game up!😜💙👩🏭
Nice to see a welder work within one inch tolerances. I wood frame behind them occasionally and it’s usually pretty awful for elevation and workmanship. They just don’t know how buildings need to go together
Amo a las mujeres soldadoras, y más, si son bellas. Saludos.
I'm in love
+mike216ism it's a great table right!!!😍💙👩🏭
BarbieTheWelder the table is great. But you are as sweet and beautiful as they come. I love tig welding myself, the fact that your into metal fab and art is so unique and your art is amazing!
+mike216ism Thank you Mike!😊
Awesome
Those tables are nice. I'd like to have one some day.
+The Tranny Shop Stick around and let me beat the hell out of it and I'll let you know how it holds up to my use and abuse!! 💪🏻💙😜
Cool thanks!
It's nice seeing a women in a male dominated industry
nice work mam i like it..
good build
Thank you!
felicitaciones!! muy buena mesa!! saludos desde Argentina!!!
You look like Alanis morriset. Good video
+victor noles Isn't it ironic, don't you think? 😜💙👩🏭
Thats cool trying too get my boss to get one
+Alejandro Farfan I got to do a small production run today and having the ability to fixture was a huge time saver!
Is she the lost sister of chucke2009?
Harry I thought I was the only one thinking that! 😂😂
+johnrtrucker Will someone let me know what's going on? Who is Chucke2009? It's not as funny if I can't laugh at myself!
chucke2009 is another TH-camr he makes great instructional and review vids and other random happenings
Barbie, just look for your unknown brother, chucke2009, you will enjoy some good information about different metal fabrication experiencies.
+johnrtrucker Thanks! I appreciate the compliment and I'm going to check him out!
Nice job ✓ thumbs up ✓ subscribed ✓
+john wadsworth I'm honored! Thank you!!
Forgive me for asking, but did something happen to your eye on the right side? Was it from welding? I'm a new welder, just wondering!
When you tried to lift that table I kept saying "put your leg on the other side. Put your leg on the other side!". And then, you heard me!!
Q: How thick is that plate, and how flat is it? It looks surprisingly thinner than I expected.
+Da L. Lol thanks for the boost!! 1/4" plate and absolutely flat!! 💪🏻💙👩🏭
It might be sweeter than me, but it ain't sweeter than you. This is my first time seeing your videos. I have no idea how I got here, but I'm pretty sure I love you.
+TheAnomaly I'm honored! Thanks for your kind words and support!
Thanks
I didn't have all those long clamps when I put mine together. I bought alot of all-thread, washers and nuts to clamp mine together to weld it. It was easier to square up, but damn was it heavier. Lol
Someone's put a lot of thought into that. If I had the room I'd probably go for one, or whatever the UK equivalent is. I bought a couple of pop up welding tables, they're OK to keep the work off the ground, but that's about all.
+v8trauma yeah I've had two pop up tables and the only thing I found them good for was taking them to shows to weld live. The provide no stability.
Can't purchase things like that here in Australia. So I guess I'll just have to do my best to make something similar.
Yes you can (machineryhouse DOT com DOT au / Welding-Tables)
It's a pity this company does not ship to Europe. The most similar tables I can find here seem to be super-high-tech products made for industrial use. And they start at 2.500€ + shipping !
Parabéns, belo trabalho!!
Hi Barbie, what measurements are the profiles of the base legs of the perforated table
Serious welders build their own table😊
+angus bull Yes they do but when it is more cost effective to purchase a table with the capabilities of this one serious welders make strategic business decisions.
i'm a noob and even i built my own welding table... with my jobs welder... and my jobs materials LMFAO, hey! I BOUGHT THE CASTOR WHEELS THOUGH! LMFAO. OH AND I PUT MY OWN VISE ON IT, and i did have to buy a piece of 2.5" square tubing because my vise has a mount for a rig trailer hitch, so i made like a hitch receiver essentially, just one 6' piece of suare tubing on the underside of my table top, adds structural integrity, and now i can slide out my vise and put it on the left or right side of my table! i'm pretty proud of that table. built it all on my own XD
Ya. My table top is 4'x5'x1/2" to within 1/32" flat cross measurement. The frame is 2x2 120 wall sq tube and the legs are 4x4 80 wall. It rides on 4 4" 500# casters. It also weighs about 700#. I totally get this table Barbie bought. Those holes are handy if you know fabrication. I use jigs alot though so..... However, even though I spent less than $200 and about 4 hours building my table, I can see where I might get one of these in the future. Let's face it, I don't have a mag drill and I am totally not ambitious enough to drill that many holes with a hand held.
True .... is what your home built table won't be.
@@draytonPW Exactly. I was on a tight budget at the time. But, Barbie's weld table is pretty freaking awesome. I'd totally trade straight across.
Hot stuff! Oh yea, the welding was nice too!
+OchoVera 😊💙👩🏭
Excellent welding table. Any tips on the top product to prevent oxidation?
I’ve never had a problem with oxidation
nice work barbie ,,
