Happy Friday! We are in Lebanon Tennessee for The Redneck Rumble! Come on out and visit us! If the WiFi is strong we will go Live tomorrow to bring the show to you! Have a good weekend! ~ The Roussels 👽👽

[@georgehancox3174]

I’ll be watching can’t wait to see it too old to be able to go to those kind of shows but you make me feel young again back when I was in the body shop thank you

Say high to "rat rod bob builds" for me

[@Tanman799]

​@@unusualpodcastlove rat rod Bob!

[@davidohler5611]

Happy Friday folks - very cool video as usual. Once again I have frustration because I subscribe again and you tube unsubscribes me and so on and so on. I feel it’s unfair to us who subscribe and to you who look to see how many subscribers you have. Sorry but feeling a bit of big brother happening. Didn’t used to be this way but sure glad you keep posting - Rock solid

[@normanvincent1217]

There is a rattlesnake round up not far from me this weekend. You would love it.

[@billweinholtz154]

Best show on KZbin. Hands down. Thanks Jamie and Ian. I think everyone should watch you both and the projects you work on.

[@fullcustomIan]

Appreciate that! We really enjoy creating the content together and Ian is enjoying slowing the car building process down to share with all of you!

Jamie does an excellent job editing, selecting music and production. Ian, give Jamie a big pay raise!🥳

[@vinceromano8245]

I never get tired of watching Ian cut, shape and form the sheet metal to fit his vision. Truly amazing. I’m also fascinated by the various sheet metal forming tools. Thanks for creating these great videos.

[@richardkilb8305]

It's an honor to watch a legend at work! And recorded in a brilliantly produced video.

Mr Gene Winfield's birthday is today, June 16th. Turning 97 years young, landed on Father's Day this year, pretty cool. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mr. Winfield.

[@MichaelMaxim-ft5sv]

Ian is teaching class on how to fabricate using tools that most of us have or could buy without spending a fortune..have fun in Tennessee

[@derekwalters6132]

That’s what I was thinking, even if I don’t fabricate a wild looking car like this Caddy-whack project, with a few select tools around the garage I should be able to fit some repair panels into a project

[@consanna]

I was jonesing for a little Full Custom Ian, as I brought up KZbin I said come on, please. And you appeared on my feed. Thank you both.

[@donaldrivas8872]

Yes always looking for the next show!!!

[@jaysonhallson-ow5gp]

I love how Jamie adores you Ian. You can tell by the way she laughs at you and with you... and the way she admires and talks to you. Your interaction is refreshing to watch.

[@malcolmgaskell7514]

Great to see you guys having fun while you work

[@jimstrieby4998]

I've learned a lot in your last few "english wheel" episodes. Thanks!

[@fullcustomIan]

You are welcome!

[@KeithRutledge-t1w]

Hi Jamie and Ian ! Jamie your video work is always stellar....there is so much more to it than just standing there with a camera. You make us feel that we are right there beside Ian as he works his magic with metal ! Ian I'm so very ,very impressed at how quickly you are picking up all the ins and outs of the English wheel art....and I don't use the term Art lightly. It is a skill using motion , pressure , speed , and direction....you Sir are an artisan in your craft ! All the Best !

[@enriquenietojr5452]

Ian, Hello this is my first time checking in on your website please forgive me for that, I have been watching you for a good while now, and you are not short of amazing, the dance you and Victor do are so much fun to see on how it unfolds. The automobile you had the factory put together was perfect. The Packard you made for your friend Tom was Keen, Keep up the good work I am really happy to see you have a personal fan club that understands the basics of car building and has room for growth.

[@vinceparatore]

Great job, so cool to see you always learning new things. You guys need some solar panels, get all the power you need in the desert!!

[@mesasavage]

I will now forever think about metal shrinking as "the reach around". Thanks for that!

[@MrT01582]

Gives a new meaning to the term special tool 🤣🤣

[@donthorne2722]

I really like watching you do your magic. At first I was shocked as to why you were cutting the caddy up, but the car is going to be spectacular!!! Keep up the great work... You are very lucky to have such a great partner!!!

[@dr.zacharysmith1207]

Jamie you do the best editing work of any videos I’ve ever seen or heard ! You are what makes all that beating and welding noise tolerable .Thank You for your professionalism and good taste in music.👍👍

Wow, thanks! I really try!

Good to see you on KZbin.

[@michaelfust9520]

Great to see the "enhancements" to already great skillsets.

[@ddmau7995]

IAN, I noticed you use light refraction to help you determine shape .The dentless remover guys do the same thing.they have a 4 wheeled cart that has an adjustable arm that holds a 4 lamp 24" wide fluorescent lamp .you can move and adjust the lamp vertically or horizontally to create the needed light . They cut cardboard shades about 11/2" wide x 24"'s to diffuse the lite over each bulb . The soft white light lit up the metal they were working on. I was allowed to watch them take out 8 or 9 dents viciously put in my Harley front fender . Perfect no painting required! He then went over the Burgundy metallic with a hair dryer because he claimed the mettalic chips " stand up" when dented !

[@badad0166]

TV crew! Love how you knock down the volume for the hammer blows and leave the voice up around it. Very watchable! This is much better work than most audio engineering. "Everybody" seems to always have the driving rock music interstitials way too hot. The viewer is always setting the volume for the narration but then scrambling for the button to "Turn that crap down!". So, thank you!

[@dave-uf8ir]

Excellent guys cheers ❤😊

[@dougbutterfield1739]

I feel your pain, we're supposed to hit 110 today here in Yuma. Looks like the fab guy is having fun learning his new, old tools. You have a great day.

[@101scetch]

Hi Ian. He has jammed the radar. Raspberry, only one man in the universe would dare to use raspberry, lone star. LOL. Classic movie. I used to watch you on the Discovery Channel and now you have your own channel on KZbin and you still amaze me to this day. Absolutely incredible work. I remember the episode you did when you lowered the roof on I think a Pontiac at some old boys farm and he was freaking out on how quickly you were doing it and all I could do is laugh because you weren’t using any new tools and he was going crazy. Awesome episode another great video from you. Thank you so much. Please take care of yourselves and blessings to both of you from the UK.

[@StanSzalkowski]

A clean shop is a happy shop 😁

[@SuperMickey57]

Aww man! You made me think about the OG Shop Inspector! R.I.P. "Dude"! He used to love it when you made the wiggling a sheet of metal noises.

[@SteveHorton-u3i]

Great show! I will wait patiently for the next one. Thanks guys!

You make it look easy Ian . Great job. 👍

I do panels and parts like the arc. In pairs. Lol. so I don't half arse the second one!!😂😂 used your handed down skill and knowledge and a cut up bat to fix fenders on my 37 the other day!! Thank you!!!!!❤❤❤

[@shloopter30]

Ian flexing that steel reminds me of when I used to do sounds for theater. I used half sheets of steel to create thunder.

[@hummiesatmv]

It seems you are quite the teacher. Watching you learn the English wheel gave me an understanding I couldn't have gained without actually doing it myself. The trial and error then finding the answers and then going back at it was the key. Seeing what happens when it's done incorrectly is way more helpful than showing half of how to do it and none of how it looks when you screw up. Thanks for the lessons. I don't have a stretcher or shrinker but I know everything has a limit, what does it look like if you stretch too much in one spot? I bet if it doesn't rip you probably still can't weld it...too thin?

[@geraldsundberg3610]

Your skills are beyond my thinking Ian!

[@johncatt1867]

This is A W S O M E, watching and listening to the thought process of this Master Fabricator and Jamie asking the perfectly timed questions. Thank you to the both of you for sharing the creative process..

[@TerrenceMurphy-k4i]

Of all your builds, this one has the most potential.

[@Havasumaker]

Top 10 channel. Honestly the best hand fabrication that shows every step

[@terryosz8458]

I love how you make things and parts by hand cause not everyone can afford all those pieces of equipment I'm learning from the artist Ian thanks Jamie and Ian stay safe out there

[@jamesrankin9833]

Instructions smucktion who needs them! 😂 amazing! Mr. Victor’s gotta love it! Have fun in Tennessee! Good stuff!

[@larryhilmes3360]

Glad to see you back, missed it. I have A.C in my shop and heat, but I had to upgrade to 100amp service. The A.C. is good when you first go in, but then after you get working you can not tell it is on except when you go out and come back in. I have a big shop fan that does a fair job. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the show.

[@GregoryBamber]

I understand where you are coming from Ian. You are proving things can be done WITHOUT ALL THE GEAR SOME SAY YOU NEED !!!! I was building bicycles then doing most of the work on my vehicles and now bicycles again with only a mig welder, a dropsaw, an angle grinder and basic hand tools and have managed quite well.

[@richardraphael4851]

That hammer is so cool love how when you start banging on the metal that it plays music and when you stop the music stops.

[@dave-uf8ir]

The English wheel force is with you lol 😊

[@jefscoupe32]

Welcome to Tennessee. I'm down near Memphis, but in the middle of painting right now or I'd be up there in Lebanon. You timed it just right. The low humidity was this past week. Y'all got here just in time for the sauna season. lol Enjoy and have fun.

God job you two, bit by bit it is taking shape, stay cool and see you next time.

[@charleslawrence7194]

Ian does amazing work regardless of the "dated" equipment. It's hard for me to imagine that he looks at himself as a beginner in metal forming. Very humble. Great duo. Jamie is getting polished. Y'all have to mes with ASCAP??

Lumping fender extraordinary extravaganza

[@mikebeidelman6051]

Ian dont need no stinking power tools, he is all the power the tools need!

[@selbord1]

Thanks, Ian for posting this honest fabrication progression without a doubt, the best manufacturing shop/show that truly takes thought and applies a vision with no slight of the hand bull works through the rough edges with what is at hand, the true meaning of believing that you can achieve your dreams, goals, and desire to "manifest" reality by putting intentional energy into hard work. God Bless You Ian, & your Lovely Lady Jamie.

Jamie go on youtube and watch people play music on a hand saw. Ian playing with the sheet metal made me think of that. You will be blown away. Another great job on the camera ❤

[@kensteffes6712]

Your home base location is beautiful. Az is 110 today, and it's awesome.

[@larryreece1403]

I'm always reminded of the great Italian coachbuilders who used a tree stump and wooden hammers to make their car bodies. Or my body shop teacher who wouldn't let anyone use the air powered long boards until they had spent a year manually using a long board. His reasoning was you don't know what you're doing yet!

[@georgehancox3174]

Glad you’re doing great on the tube

[@dosedoze9121]

Delighted to see that Honest Ian’s has relocated to the desert with you - Finding the stretcher in your toolbox (that’s been there for 11 years LoL) reminded me of the measure once, cut twice moment from a previous episode. Lesser content creators would have edited that stuff out. Love the real time thought processes and discussion. I only wish Jamie would chime in more, or better yet, full on assist (apprentice?). Appreciate you both braving the heat for us (your biggest?) fans. Thanks so much!!!

I CAN NOT AFFORD ALL THOSE "TOOLS" THE "OTHERS" ARE RECOMENDING ; I AM AN OLD SCHOOL GUY , LITERALLY , SO = WHEN YOU TEACH ME HOW TO DO EACH STEP I CAN DO THIS WITH THE TOOLS I HAVE & CAN MAKE OR SIMPLY UTILIZE & MODIFY AND "MAKE DO" I AM SO GLAD I WATCHED & SUBSCRIBED THANK YOU FOR TEACHING ME

[@davidohler5611]

You really said a mouthful regarding belief in manifestation. I too believe letting go releasing and visualizing the outcome, allowing God the universal power works. It does and has in my life. 3 years ago I lost my wife of over 40 years to cancer and today although I’m still getting accustomed/acclimated to being alone ( this year turning 70) God the ethereal power has rewarded me muchly for putting my faith and trust in it/Him. See it believe it and release it. I like you two a lot - bless you both. Thanks for making interesting educational and enjoyable videos.

Good Morning you guys ⚙️🔧😎
