I would never have imagined the steps and skill to creating this work of art. Absolutely stunning!!

[@recoverytrouble]

I agree. Great looking result.

[@theoryofpersonality1420]

The gold leaf is actually much much harder than he makes it look.

[@Windys21]

I have never seen this done before. I just stumbled upon this video, I'm glad I did. What an art form! I dread to think how many years it takes to be such a great sign maker.

[@mikemay8334]

No wonder those signs cost so much, that’s a lot of work, not too mention the amount of talent it takes to keep it looking good without any screw ups.

[@asvarien]

I'm surprised and impressed how precise and repeatable the edge scalloping is. Glue chipping is a fascinating process, as is gilding. The sign turned out beautiful, a work of art.

[@melanieaway]

That word repeatable = true professional

[@dougaldhendrick3497]

I saw a dude making hand painted pub mirrors, some 8' wide, beautiful logos all painted in reverse, then mirrored over paint. Absolutely incredible to see the artistry. Sadly, they only lasted a few months when the entire complex was destroyed by fire, along with hand built furniture and fittings, years of work gone in a few hours. And I think it was an insurance job.. bastards!

[@lori3978]

Back in the day from layout to gold leaf it was all by hand. I am empressed with making the glue for the chipped glass. Much skill required and a job well done. I have to say I miss it. It’s good to see this kind of work still having a market. Good for you guys!!!

[@GiottoMoon]

[@rogerjones6033]

Fascinating! I was truly mesmerized at your glass work and leaf techniques. I've done a little reverse lettering on glass (car windows, doors at our church, etc.) and even attempted gold leaf with sizing (using imitation gold leaf) but I've never seen this type of craftsmanship done before...truly amazing! Can't believe a guy below said it was "entry-level simple stuff" - where's his video?

[@boastyy]

Beautiful work, my grandfather was a sign writer and wood grainer, this brings back memories of watching him work.

[@thisolesignguy2733]

Very nice! It's so time consuming but worth it. We usually just do gold leaf vinyl with gold fold vinyl, it's faster yes but not better. This was beautiful, take it from a guy that's been doing signs for over 30yrs. Major props.

[@AndyLawsonawl]

Fantastic work! Your scalpel work is slick too. I really appreciate the level of detail and patience for the craft. Well done

[@abp2861]

That was absolutely incredible. Dudes, thank you so much for sharing. Andy

[@asne3a654]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[@renec42]

Amazing! I've done just a few of those, but without the chipping process and sandblasting. Just plain inbrectangular glass with white gold, double outline and shade with a handpainted green marble effect in the background, a really fun project but time consuming, a lot of patience is required as well. I did it for the experience only, in the past 30 years I've done only a handful of those, including sandblasted signs with gold leaf, a few boats and lawyer and doctor's offices, now days is just quicker and simpler for us to use gold vinyl or Mylar for those customers that want the gold leaf look but for a fraction of the cost. I really enjoyed watching this video and hope that we got a little difference in the background color due to the video, the background color looks too close in value to the gold and does not make it stand out as much, I would've made the background color darker. But that's just my personal taste. Excellent job!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@artregeous]

if you cover glass with bee wax clear lettering or patterns inside than place just surface to flake the glass in sulfiric acid you can get the flaked etching but extremely toxic than painnt gold than foil it behind than mirror the back there are some antique mirror kits this suggesting is for the lowest cost i wouldnt touch edges due to grinding glass and risking breathing glass dust ( sulfiric acid vapours is also extreme hazzard for health and skin but hence lil caution anything can be done safe again this is lowest cost wise maybe equvalent to cutting stencils at the process only lettering gold leaf cost to day probably 75 bucks ) good luck do what ever but dont hurt your self peace good luck

I have been hand lettering for 35 years and this process is not 'hand made', its computer made.

[@TimFleenor]

Other than a plotter cut mask how is it not hand made? He had to design the file for the plotter as well so..

[@manlymcstud8588]

@@victorhex6380 the result is indeed beautiful, but if that part was done by hand i hate to think of the cost.

[@manlymcstud8588]

@@TimFleenor well, lol, in this case it's not as if he designed the font or never had hundreds of examples to reference to. i don't think anyone is knocking the end result or even that he *might* be able to do it by hand, but, really, there's not a lot of 'amazing talent' involved, it's mostly several little jobs akin to entry-level factory work. sure, someone did the design probably on adobe and that requires some skill that has to be learned. in other words, in the actual manufacture of the piece i don't see anything here that can't be learned inside a week aside from the design work on the computer. were you a professional of the craft, i doubt you'd view the lettering as 'hand-made,' either. again, it's a great result, but it's not all hand made. as with most 'factory' made things using simple processes, we don't go around calling our cars hand-made, either. is your computer hand-made? you wouldn't call it that, but people used their hands putting it together, and the circuit boards could conceivably be done by hand, so..

This was an amazing amount of work, talent, skill, dedication, and equipment! How did you even learn this? And what do you charge to be fair to yourself?

[@manlymcstud8588]

let's get a grip for a sec, eh? lol. first, the result was beautiful, so don't get me wrong. you can literally see the amount of work he did, and if you've ever did any factory work you probably wouldn't be overly impressed by the several small entry-level tasks you need to do to get it done. talent? sure. then again, it's a design style that probably goes back to the mid-1800's and the fonts are common enough. there's a lot of references to draw from. but, you still have to lay it out and do the actual computer work for the masks. skill... i didn't see anything that you shouldn't be able to be passably good enough at within a week. dedication? well, it's a job, you're expected to be competent and take pride in your work no matter if you're making arty glass pieces or flipping burgers. as far as equipment goes, nothing extravagant. you need a plotter, some basic hand tools/brushes, that crimper probably is pretty inexpensive, a sandblasting booth, compressor, and i assume that's some kind of UV box to 'cure' the glue like what you'd use to cure screen printed shirts (often called a burner box). were you to start this up yourself, i would reckon you'd drop about $5-7K. how do you learn it? it's not a lost art. i mean, you just learned how to do it, right? lol. you charge what any other business would charge, calculating your overhead/materials, determining what you want to earn, and being cognizant of the competition. again, the result is beautiful, i'm just trying to put it into some kind of perspective, lol.
