- This sign was in a style I've been wanting to try for a long time! My using 3M VHB Tape to adhere a face to a backer piece we were able to completely hide all fasteners on this sign installation. Let me know your thoughts below!

Good stuff. You really do go to great lengths for your clients. They are lucky to have you doing their work!
I second this comment
👍👍👍😜🏴🦄🎣😁🤞✌️
Very well thunked out, studding went fantastically well for final lookie seeie and Mary had it righton. I'd never say a bad thing about your jobs, you know where I live..lol..besides ya might want my TH sign back. Great stuff as always Richard !!
Nice work, I love that stud welder
Like your design on fastening to wall. Keep up the good work
Looks really clean nice job👍🏻
Great video 42fab
Great job I used a stud welder years ago they save alot of time
👍👍👍😜🏴🦄🎣😁🤞✌️
Love that tape
Nice! I like it!
Pretty damn clever!
Countersunk steel spacers are no more tricky than a bit of thick wall tube, cut to length, and a few minutes under the drill press with a countersink bit chucked up. You don't even need to own a lathe. I make them all the time. Don't need to make it super expensive for a non-visible element. Just for fun, I checked McMaster, (since they offer that exact custom service on their website) they came out to be $1635 for 100 of them. Haha!
When I do inside signs, even though I have a lathe... I always just buy the nice ones from MBS-Standoffs. On occasion, I do have to drill through them to make them spacers instead of threaded stand-offs. And I sometimes countersink the backer letter, if it's like .125" aluminum. I just did a sign like that, but the faces were acrylic. It's a great technique. I've got pics up on my instagram.
love me some VHB.
This looks great, could also do a nice shadow effect with having the prices with screws larger then the front pieces.
Also those parts would not be hard to manufacture on a CNC lathe. Many small shops would take that easy job and I’m sure you can get the cost real low.
Hey great job all your videos are super informal
I get some good people to come help out!
Wanna be best friends forever?
only if there are also benefits
I’d buy them!
When I saw the recessed countersink one the standoffs I thought you were going to use neodymium magnets on top of the screw heads
Interest!
Success👍
Use a dab of water where the stud hits the material and it will atypical twice as hard and won't fail
great video, a girl who likes working in the shop? How cool is that!
Hey, even Mary's a STUD (welder.) Richard it's great to see someone challenge them self's, not accept everyday concept's, and blaze a new path. Well thought out plan. Executed according to plan. What's not to love. If I may, what new Plasma Cutter did you go with. If your doing a video about what you went with, disregard this request, and I'll wait with everybody else.
It'll be a full video, just pulled the trigger
Nice video. I’m a neon sign maker. We use a similar process for installing neon, but we use a paper layout (use a plotter to print it easily).
You might find that it’s cheaper and easier to use than metal templates. Paper gets taped to the wall, checked for level, adjusted, then just drill through the paper in the marked spots for fastening.
Let me know if you want me to elaborate.
Also, you can most likely find studs like what you had machined already made via McMaster Carr
Well cheaper is relative, as he gets the template from just cutting the sign letters from a metal plate in the size the sign is, so it only costs the amount of plate used and some of it comes back as scrap value.
@@JaakkoF Yes that is true. In the sense of convenience, you can keep the paper layout taped up until the sign is completely installed, ripping it away after checking your alignment/spacing. This is how professional sign companies operate.
@@JaakkoF Nesting your pcs saves even more money, scrap is $10 / ton that doesn't pay the fuel bill to get it there. I use the plotter as well for many projects. One of the best way to make a mock up is to print to poster paper..
@kodyps you realize the fact that I am being paid to do this makes me, by definition, a professional?
Masonry epoxy would be way overkill, that's really used for structural work.
Looks great.
I'd agree in a solid wall, but when anchoring to something thinner like 1/2" durock behind a tile facade, that grab is well worth it
Just thinking, I think you’ve used threaded standoffs in past projects. I think you’d be able to easily weld one of the threaded standoffs on. Then use a countersink drill bit after it’s welded and you’d have basically what the machinist made for you. Even if you needed to drill out the threads I think it would still be worth it.
it's an avenue I'm looking at. Not a fan of them being hexagonal vs round, but that's relatively minor. good suggestion
SAFETY GLASSES!
Do you think you need a LLC immediately if you’re just going to do small things starting off and ur not 18 yet so you cant legally form one
It's great to have for pretty cheap. If someone gets hurt from something you did, they can take your business and assets but not your home, car, etc (generally speaking).
That all said, it's a risk mitigation strategy, and we all define our tolerable risk level. Personally, I use one as it makes separating all my finances great and has the other benefits mentioned. I do not plan to build something that will hurt someone, but freak shit happens.
42Fab - Metal Fabrication & Signage Luckily I dont have any assets yet
omg, why wouldn't you use a plotter to make a pattern instead of sheet metal?
OMG, because time is worth more than the metal that was used, space in a shop has a value
@@42Fab Lol, touche. I see what you did there. I've always used a plotter to make a wall pattern cause it's lighter and easier for us, and takes about 30 seconds to print. I don't see how it saves you time, but I'll trust you know more about how you do things than I do and it does save you time.
It's more about dedicating space for something I would not use often. The backers are cut directly from the stencil, so the only extra cut is to cut the stencil rectangle out.
@@42Fab I see how that makes sense in this case. We usually form out our wall mount signs so we dont have the raw materials to use as a stencil.
@@42Fab That plotter / vinyl cutter makes me money too. The metal saved by nesting your parts adds to the bottom line as well..
why not just cut out the entire individual letters as a set alone
they spent all that money on a metal sign but didn't want to sand and paint that old wall?
Looks un level....... my be just me
Me to but I think it's ment. this guy don't make mistakes
👍 👍 👍 😜 🏴🦄🎣😁🤞✌️
its level, the opening may be out a hair, but that final shot is also stabilized in the edit as my hand was shaky, so it's a bit skewed
@@chopperhehehe your are absolutely correct. The Fab Man 42 is bad ass metal maker. With a sparky in one hand and plazma in the other. I love his chanle because he looks like he is a self made business owner and a big hearted one at that.... taking in guys and given them a chance to learn a skill. And the weld it up kits ...... he ant making big bucks at all. Truely a man among men
@@calimesacox I second this comment to
👍👍👍😜🏴🦄🎣😁🤞✌️
No face protection ? She should be fired.
