- MY wife has been on my case to make this sign as a gift for a team at her office, so I finally found the time to do it, but told her she had to help. By the time we got to the shop that became "you're doing the work" and off she went. Jessica has learned a lot of the years from watching me, helping, and even watching (she calls it "studying") my videos. Join us as she goes through the whole process of creating a sign start to finish!

Jessica doing a hell of a job welding great work Mrs 42Fab on the entire build
Cool trick with the sand, I'm stealing that!
Absolutely, loved that idea.
Agreed! Never seen that before but it’s ingenious! Definitely stealing that!
She's lovely. You really got a keeper of a wife there.
"work out of the wrist" took a hart beat to catch onto that one. lol.
I'm about 98% convinced that almost every youtuber is out for one thing: to show off how cute their significant other is!
Really enjoyed this video. Love seeing couples work together on projects! Great job!
You two are great together. Never lose the ability to laugh and tease each other, but only in cheerful ways. My wife and I have been together 40 years and that's probably the single best thing we've learned.
Hey dear, look at the dust move in this magnetic block? priceless.
Nice Sign! I love the finish of steel! The light has modernized the sign! And!:) the workshop makes you want to make stuff! Really Good job!
I think you guys are great, the wife has some skill thanks to her teacher!! keep up the good work, I really enjoyed watching this!!
look out she take over you job soon. well done jess
Nice Sign, bet the rest of her team are as enthused about displaying it as Jessica was building it. Good Job guy's !!
That plasma cutter is pretty sweet. Nice job on the video and build.
This was actually fun to watch. Thanks.
(There's something cool about husband/wife teams working together. Maybe it reminds me of my wife working alongside me)
First, keep that wonder-woman in the shop, she is a natural and woman always bring creativity and imagination aside from common sense, something some of us could use... and some inspiration too. You're way too lucky she's taking a genuine interest in handy work which in a girl, is a bonus. Way to go Jessica! don't forget to wear gloves.
great work you too! and that sand trick is very clever
Love that idea with the sand, going to have to borrow that.
Hello!
Respect for your work, I found you because I want to do my business with a plasma machine. I watched a lot of videos and was amazed at your hard work! When my wife saw this video, she said that you are the wrong Americans))) slim, beautiful and hardworking! You have a very cool workshop, many will envy what you have achieved. And of course a beautiful wife! sorry for my english i'm just learning it.
Awesome job, awesome wife, awesome chanel. Keep up the good work
she did a great job
You have a cool Wife. Very nice couple. 👍 nice project.
awesome. I love the sand trick
Nice job! I would love it if my wife, or as she insists I call her, my better 3/4's, would help with a project. Thanks for sharing.
wonderful work done
It looks Great!!
Sweet video and build! 🤘
It's great watching a shop newbie freak out when you get hit by sparks. After a few months of shop work you can't feel anything lol
Like the teamwork. My wife is afraid of all my motorized tools, lol.
try this sometime. do your cuts and face finish , and then get some mica pigments off ebay or amazon , and add them to fiberglass or epoxy resins , and or even urethane . makes for a candy like with pearl accent , transparent finish . also protects the raw steel under it , which gives it a bit of depth and cool light refraction . can also use LED's as well for night lighting . always fun lixing mediums . hope you all are well . have fun .
I just came across your channel, love the work. I’m getting ready to pull the trigger on a table of my own and start a side gig.
I figured I’d add my two cents about the flapper wheel, I like to keep the spacer that’s meant for cutting disks behind the flapper wheel. It spaces the disk out so the threaded portion of the grinder’s shaft doesn’t protrude as far making it less likely to scratch the work surface. But hey great work and keep it up!
Good way to do it
Great vid Rich! Loving the content bud :) Jess is a natural too
Nothing artificial about her
That sand trick is good thinking
Nice production on the video and a fun project. You two are cute together and should collaborate on projects that will pull in more female viewers.
That was great. Awesome idea qith the sand.
you got it made buddy!
Very cool!
Awesome!
Very cool
Great jokes throughout video!
Needs more of the wife for these golden jokes.
Great job my wife doesn't like it when welder sparks she thinks it's burning me lol ofcourse some do lol but that's welding
👍👍👍😜🏴😁✌️
Great videos lots of great information even us old guys can learn a thing or two. LMAO keep em coming subscribed.
Great looking sign. Never seen the sand trick before with the paint. Just don't get to close with the spray paint can or you'll have a textured sign. lol :)
Right?
Love the videos ,try to get my wife to come work with me in the shop but shes not fond of being burned and getting shot with sparks lol .
Great video Mr. and Mrs. 42Fab
I learn a lot watching you. Thanks for all the great videos. I like the back light but would like a more even light. Just a thought would making the shape to hold the LED in a more similar shape to sign border help?
Yes, definitely, just offset the border in by an inch or two
Ok don't know if I'm more impressed on your wife's welding or the sand idea. But either one I'm impressed on the turnout
Nice one.
@11:00 ....absolutely. Spray paint tops are much harder to get off recently.
Dunc u need to pinch the sides and pull to get them off
sweet sign!
Thanks
Nice work :D
10/10 on the dad jokes
What a beautiful lady! I'm not jealous, because I have one too. Cheers sir!
"Wife welds a sign". "She opens up her eyes and welds a sign". That song was the the first thing that poped in my held lol.
She's cool.. 👍
you're so lucky to have a really beautiful and skilled wife :)
Totally understand why she's a wife... She's really adorable :)
Hell, I think so
awww she is awesome !
lucky bastard
nice wife, nice job! 👍🏻
After I fight with the top on my spray paint for more than about 5 seconds I just smack it on the nearest object and the top pops right off. If you hit it too hard though the top shatters, so it takes practice to keep the top reusable lol.
I do the same, often as first resort
Dude I like your videos and I am sure I am not the first person to point out it would be harder to work blind, keep your safety glasses on while the wife is grinding! Big Fan!
We don't do safety police here. Every one takes their own risks, I won't complain about yours, nor tolerate anything less in return
You get it done Mrs 42 fab
This video was funny. My son works for snap-on here in TN. He gets me a discount but even with the big discount my God it's still expensive. Lol, I think she did a great job. What other channels would you recommend to watch like yours? *Chris*
Check out jimbos garage and you can make this too
Saw your vid on reddit, cool work. Just thought you should know that a plasma arc isnt that different from a welding arc, aka you need shaded glasses to look at it. Just a heads up to not get sunburn in your eyes.
Yeah, been at it for years, they aren't as bright but not something you want to stare at
Awesome...but you not wearing safety glasses worries the crap out me..lol
If i can't open can of spray paint i just hit the cap by table and the the cep fly 5m
I'm looking for a magnetic hold down like you used with the letters. Where did you get it?
My Magnetic Chuck: amzn.to/2C6o0dS
Great video 42 Fab
Can I get some details or a link to those magnets you use to hold flat plate still for grinding?
Called a magnetic chuck, linked in description
Hey great vid, but where's Jessica's safety ear muffs!!!
Wear gloves too haha don’t want flash burns on ya hands, cool video
Another great question, where the heck did you get that large table magnet ?
Check the description. Magnetic chuck
2:59 LMAO dude
Your wife did well d 🤣
Did you make that magnetic plate for Grinding small pieces or did you buy it? I need that!!!
Bought it, link in description
Forgive me but I don't see that in the description...unless I'm blind, which my wife would argue that point when she asks me to look for something...its not there.
Huh? Odd, here's the link www.amazon.com/VEVOR-Magnetic-Permanent-Powerful-Rectangular/dp/B07D55W52G/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1546931970&sr=8-3&keywords=magnetic+chuck&linkCode=sl1&tag=42fab-20&linkId=fcd77de36c51a32f16b1e961de22695e&language=en_US
I love your work Sr can I join your company please am a welding guy
That masterbation joke was 11/10
Question, does your wife happen to have a twin sister?
I'd have her snapped up too if so
Hope i could find a woman like that one day
she is looks like an actress
Good video, but when she's working around rotary tools, she may want to put the hair up tight. I saw the comment where you said you "don't do safety police" here, but we don't know if you reminded or told her about the hazard or not, and for her sake, it'd be good.
You're right here, we had a talk about it, forgetfulness happens, The camera does lie as to how close she was, but you are definitely right here, hair in tools is BAD
@@42Fab I appreciate your response and not getting all high-horse or a-hole-y with me - it was certainly an awesome video, I came upon it randomly and subscribed now, and I'm not even remotely a metal worker kind of guy, lol
iron work in glamor nice
from pakistan i love usa and usa peopls
she does good work, how long til shes in the shop with you full time?
She likes to be there, sometimes
@5:50 somebody call OHSA
Pro tip I learned from Ave on YT, pull your face away when welding. You do not want or need to be that close...the fumes are not tasty enough or odorously pleasant to justify the health risk.
Let your wife use even a paper mask better yet a good $50.00 mask it will save have lungs on the long run God bless both of you..
I don’t have a lot of time to watch videos so I’ve only seen a few. It’s great to see you guys working together so few couples do that these days!!
I was really surprised to hear you went in college. Honestly I’ve never met a self employed College kid and I never and I mean never expected to hear of a libertarian college kid, man you must of been the odd man out!! Either that or you figured out quickly the liberal BS wasn’t going to cut it in the real world.
The stronger wrist It’s because of the way guys hold their tools and use more wrist action girls when using their tools tend to just apply medium to heavy pressure with their first two fingers not sure why but wait till she pokes you in the chest when’s she’s mad at you those first two fingers are abnormally strong!!🤔😂.
Anyway I appreciate the video’s and hope you keep them coming and I’m going to try to catchup.
Happy to have you as a viewer, but metalworking comments aren't the place for political fighting (even though i mostly agree with you)
42Fab - Metal Fabrication & Signage you are correct I apologize!!
cute :D
Use a guard for the grinder, das dangerous
You literally married a supermodel.
one of the hottest welders i have ever seen ! good job you two
looking for a partner like her
I don't know if she stole your job, but she may have stolen your Channel. Nice Job Jessica. Female welders are huge on Instagram... Probably here too, I just see them on Instagram more.
A battery operated grinder? I had the same one and that same battery went out after 10 minutes! Never again! Only corded grinders from now on. Plus the battery grinders have lower rpms... they suck big!
To each his own
@@42Fab roger that. Forgot to say, the wife on fabricating is awesome! You definitely got a keeper.
Great video. You have an awesome wife 😎 . You talked about safety but didn't wear safety glasses when she's grinding bud. Your more likely to get crap in your eyes than her .
We don't do safety police here. Everyone decides the risks they are willing to take, I'll respect your decisions, I only accept the same
my girl never comes in my workshop. only to tell me to come to eat
Surprised more people didn't catch this
"I mean guess I get it. Ladies don't grow up getting as much a workout on their wrists as guys do."
Great job young lady !
But your a "WELDORS" wife ! Not a welders wife . Unless you married a miller or esab ! 😁 Just sayin !
Thats the first thing i teach the help . Er is the machine ! Or is the operator !
Sounds like an uneducated religious position unless you've used my equipment. Both make good equipment, but that doesn't mean HTP cannot hold its own
This was me being grumpy while driving, the grammar thing is true, but not worth the argument with most people. My bad
@@42Fab i wasnt bashin the equipment brother ! You missed what i was saying ! Spelling sir ! You are a WELDOR !
Not a welder . Welder is the machine ! Your title says Welders wife . That would dictate your wife married a welding machine . Mrs Miller . Mrs HTP . Mrs Esab !
I learned in the late 70s n 80s when you had to go to the library to learn lit . The literature clearly states : you are a Weldor ! Welder is the machine ! Great video ! Great cpl you make ! Just frustrating how little stuff like spelling has slipped through the internet . First thing i teach a new helper . You are a WELDOR ! Last kid i taught sucked it all up ! Learned the lit ! Now hes a cwi for a outfit in chicago pullin 100,000 a year ! You folks be safe !
@@42Fab you think your grumpy now 🤣😂🤣 wait till your 60 my friend ! Take good care your wife ! She seems like a keeper 😁 i got 4 daughters n 2 grand daughters ! Tell your wife every day how much you love her 💖
Gonna hit the subscribe ! Seem like my kinda ppl 👊
Great job Jessica.
@4:41 I thought Richard was going in for a kiss.
Lol, kinda looks like it
