The Backstory of Jamie's Jeep....
Jamie has wished and WISHED for a Willy's Jeep for her Christmas and Birthday present 🎁 . Ian has had a beautiful Willys 1946 CJ-2a Jeep in the back sitting on a Willys M38A1 Chassis for the past few years. Ever since Ian and Jamie were married, Jamie has been eyeing it for a build on Full Custom Garage, sadly the project didn't make it to the show, but now she gets her wish! Jamie is learning about the history of these jeeps and is learning a little wrenching from Ian. The desert is a great place to go "jeepin" and Jamie wants to be part of the club in the warmer months and feel the wind in her hair as she drives to the local market. Jamie is down to get her hands dirty in the garage on this one! We appreciate our amazing support system in the desert with helping us procure the parts needed for this fun build!

Thankyou for playing the Marine Corps hymn. I'm a Vietnam veteran U.S.M.C and I joined the corps in 1964 and got out in 1970 and the Marine Corps hymn always makes me remember , I'm A U.S. Marine till the day I die!!

[@capt.spaulding5858]

Thank you for your sacrifice and service. 🫡🇺🇸

[@warriorviper999]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@larryhilmes3360]

It was nice but I am a army vet, still like the music. Welcome home brother 67 to 68.

[@136092195]

Thank You Sir

[@derrekjohnson777]

Semper Fi

[@JonStein-mu5eb]

I love that you played the Marine Corp Hymn.

[@billweinholtz154]

First thing I’m glad you are okay. I’m a machinist of 50 years and yes I have all 10 digits. I also have to tell you every time you post Jamie’s Jeep I have to go back and watch the first episode when you introduced the Jeep project I like seeing the excitement of Jamie with her project. Stay well and safe

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

I just mentioned I have all 10 before I saw your post

[@dazleecy1344]

I've nine and a half

[@billweinholtz154]

I hope you’re able to continue working though

[@steveemm9245]

Extremely happy to see you with only minor injuries, i have seen you many times and thought that your guard was not on the angle grinder , very happy to see that your lesson didn’t cost you to much

[@toddpowell6313]

We all have near-death moments. You just dodged another one. Thanks for making sure that we all remember safety never takes a holiday. Thanks for everything Ian and Jamie.😎

[@stephensano9156]

Love the patriotic Marine Corps background music!

[@charleslawrence7194]

Everyone gets complacent from time to time. Thanks for the reminder. Gotta respect them power tools. I like the title one of the other viewers gave Jamie. The Jeep is going to be a cool ride.

[@larrymarkee8277]

Over 91 thousand subscribers. Getting close to that 100 K goal. And it’s a relieve that no one was injured during the making of this awesome video. Take care and be safe, both of you.

[@billstaats1817]

Noticed the Marine's Hymn in the back ground. Semper Fidelis.

[@Ron_Masterjohn]

Thank you Lord for Ian not getting hurt or Jamie.😮 Another awesome video that Jamie knocked it out of the park on all levels.😊

[@rickteegarden5763]

Thanks for being forthright regarding your lucky escape and to serve as a reminder how important our safety gear is. Well done.

[@ronbunker5778]

I'm glad you shared your experience about the wheel blowing up. I took a guard off my grinder one day, because I saw another shop do it, and the disc kicked back and put a big gash in my finger. I learned an extremely hard lesson that day and now I never remove guards. I always leave the handle on my grinders also and I always hold the grinder with both hands. I also wear gloves and most importantly eye protection! Glad you didn't get hurt!

[@Kahuna54]

So glad you are okay. I worked for a chemical company in Los Angeles in 1973, we has a gasoline tanker from the 50s that had developed a leak. We hired a specialist to come and weld the tanker. He had thoroughly cleaned the tanker, flushed it several times and didn’t even dry it but he couldn’t leave water in it due to the location of the leak I guess. He was repairing it at our shop, had it in a corner of an open yard. Apparently there was still some gas trapped between the inner and outer walls and it exploded. We never found any remains! Always be super careful!

[@mavwrik4605]

Ian, I love ya man. You started this video with a serious safety lecture & then drilled with a hole saw & a drill bit with no safety glasses on. Okay, your a seasoned pro. Side note: When I was an apprentice millwright in about 1979 I too was drilling without safety glasses that resulted in 3 days of great pain & an eventual trip to the eye surgeon to remove the shard that flew in my eye & started rusting over those 3 days. They dug it out with a needle & to this very day when I look at something like a white wall I can see the scarring from that like a small piece of fur dancing on the wall where ever I look. Stay safe. PS: You did well, the wife's a keeper . . .

[@scottkrolik4699]

Great job Ian every day you learn something watching you glad you didn’t get hurt !

[@wayneullman5079]

Thank you for addressing the tool issue. Unfortunately not everyone sees your word of caution but everyone watching sees the way you use the tools correctly or incorrectly. We learn from you either way. Please be careful. Accidents happen to all experience levels. Love your work.

[@scroungasworkshop4663]

So glad those chunks missed you Ian. I’ve got a really cool scar on my left wrist where a cutting disc on a 5” grinder bit me. It was so fast I hardly saw the grinder flash from my right side to my left when it grabbed but I remember looking at my wrist and seeing the white tendons inside the gash moving when I tried to wiggle my fingers and thinking “this isn’t good” especially when some of my fingers weren’t moving. I was lucky to have an amazing micro surgeon at the hospital that stitched everything back together and after 12 months of rehab I was all good. Complacency was the problem. Just making a gate and using the grinder with one hand and no guard so when it grabbed I had no control of what it did or where it went. It certainly gave me a wake up call. Cheers, Stuart 🇦🇺

[@josephkanakry7040]

Be safe! We want you to continue doing what you do, you’re a great teacher of your craft.

[@chrismahoney7213]

Thanks for the safety reminder

[@rickardjohnson4524]

Serious Stuff, Truly, Noted! Thanks and Thumbs Up!...

[@shotsrodder]

Great safety tip on the importance of speed ratings on stones and discs. 🧐

[@elsdp-4560]

Thank you for sharing. Safety Class 101 No Joke.🛸👽👍

[@stevetravels6160]

I am happy to hear that you survived. It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt. :(

[@terryscully7389]

Thanks for sharing that news and being honest, thank God you were not injured

[@davidmanhire5532]

Fine choice of music 😎 but you are one lucky fella, it's easy to forget just how dangerous tools are when you use them all the time. Glad this one didn't bite you. Also happy you shared it so others may take notes! 👍

[@billlevassiur5891]

Glad you weren't seriously hurt. Safety is easy to ignore.

[@donlandenberg8126]

Thanks for sharing with us.

[@dennisgauck7526]

If you choose to ùse another cup wheel on a 7 inch grinder ,try suspending the cup wheel on a rod(through the bore) clamped horizontally in a vice and tap around the o.d. listening for a sharp pinging sound, which means the wheel's good ,but if you hear a dull thudish sound; the wheel's cracked. The outfit I worked at had a rule about grinding wheels of all sizes and the sound test was it. If you've ever seen or heard a 36 inch o.d. grinding wheel explode while at full speed on a machine you'll never forget it. You might try wearing a leather apron, neck to knee length to keep an exploding grinding wheel or disc from penetrating the body, the shards will knock the snot out of you but that beats taking the dirt nap. Stay safe you two!

[@65cj55]

They're just not mean't for high speed.

[@MarkStavig]

Glad nobody was hurt by the flying debris! Also steering work can be tricky...thanks for walking us through it. Tech tip....anti-seize on the tie rod threads make life a lot easier. You can adjust them without even having to set down your beer. 🙃

[@Gary-fc5tk]

Just😊a thank you for your great work, love the videos, very interesting builds, USMC. 1968-1971.

[@robertbennett9243]

Nice setup. I like the fact that you went thru the front cross member with the steering.

[@scottmason1937]

Glad you're all good, look after yourselves ❤

[@gcjabo]

I'm glad you are ok. That stuff is dangerous so a person has to always be aware and act accordingly. Be safe, Brother!

[@DanielSilva-ws5cq]

The background music was spot on

[@edm4847]

I was amazed to find out you had an injury THROUGH the gloves. Could you imagine without gloves? Also, that angle of the material was aimed back toward the subject grinder. Lots of good stuff to learn from there.

[@Dagrond]

Good PSA - glad you're lucky.

[@jefferybonem7336]

Having worked many years at large capacity steel fabrication facilities, we had a procedure in place that required a trained person change the grinding stones and check them in steel trash can with a covered lid with hole that was covered so as to ensure that the wheels had no defects or cracks I. Them. We fabricated heat exchangers with to 6” thick plate.

[@KaycieCarryl22654]

That was one heck of an FYI on the grinder. Nasty stuff, that.....and the Jeep continues! 👩‍🦳

[@lawrenceb-go6ul]

I'm glad no one was hurt

[@dazleecy1344]

Wow nearly game over, good 👍. An 4 sharing your experience ian 🙌 bless

[@derekwalters6132]

Nice little start to the video Ian, glad you never got hurt. But a reminder to wear proper PPE when doing a job is never a bad idea. My great uncle lost the sight in one eye when he was helping a guy poor an acidic substance into an acid bath his safety glasses were in his pocket, instead of taking the few seconds to put them on he thought “ it’s just a quick little job what could go wrong” well it splashed up and into his eye costing him his sight as I said in that eye, and this was the last day on the job as he was retiring. So thanks for putting that message out and Jamie great shots as usual and before too long you might be able to drive this thing.

[@nedkelly2864]

They made us tough in the 70s mate glad your ok.

[@Dabaspony]

Wow, you definitely dodged a bullet there Sonny glad you only got a small injury. A friend of mine was using the thin wheel desk one-handed and it kicked back and caught him just above his eye and the forehead. 43 stitches later and a nice scar. please be careful look forward to your next adventure, your biggest fan.

[@jamesbuck6623]

Hi that's why a full face shield helps glad your alright whoa!

[@dominicalbrecht7039]

And then use's a grinder with no guard..yeah that safety talk was helpfull..😂😂😂

[@MLFranklin]

Sweet Jeep!

[@jeffreybowman1787]

I like the wooden pallet trick

[@LeslieSmith1970]

Looks cool all the hidden bits and pieces been added like a puzzle getting put together.

[@martyscncgarage5275]

Thank you for sharing your unfortunate experience Ian, and the aftermath.

[@KayakCampingOffGrid]

So glad you didn't get seriously injured by the sudden unplanned disintegration of the rotating disc! Phew 😮!

[@65cj55]

It was a cup stone, they're not reinforced and speed limited.

[@terryosz8458]

So you are ok the Marines hymn was great thanks for sharing Stay safe out there

[@user-sp3te3rm1e]

I had a smaller stone explode on me back during my factory days. Tore up both legs about 2 inches below my " happy place" so it could have been worse! Stay safe!

[@rolandlewis2356]

Hi Ian, Thank you for warning people/fans that what you do, you make it look easy. If pros can get hurt, imagine people without training and experience. I know I'm a nag but steel is heavy. A pair of steel toed boots in case a piece of steel falls out of your hands or round stock rolls of a work bench. I enjoy your content so stay safe (selfish aren't I ?). All the best to you and yours.

[@bradkay1210]

Great job Ian and Jamie. The jeep is looking good. Glad it was a near miss from the grinder Ian Glad your OK keep up the fantastic work 👍

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Thank you for using the Military songs as your background music, I heard my beloved Marine's Hymn playing. Semper Fi to my Brothers and Sisters of the Corps. Was watching a car show on TV years ago and a guy was using a cutting disk that exploded and a piece embedded in his face shield about an inch in front of his face. Use proper PPE.

[@snoopu2601]

I'm glad you put that out there with the grinder. I'm always putting on my leather gear full face shield bandana around my neck. When using the grinder. Making shire someone is around just in case I have to speed dial to the hospital. I need to invest in a "turnakit" to cut off the blood if it's really serous to get some medical attention. Yes practice safety is for most important when dealing with power tools. Safety glasses even with doing something simple, dust, chip's of metal, something snap and go flying.

[@williamsnyder1205]

I thought of the Emerson Lake & Palmer song Lucky Man when you were talking about your mishap, what a lucky man you are!!! I know you are but be safe my friend!!!

[@davidweir3217]

glad your okay projects r looking good

[@donnieslaughter764]

Another step closer

[@brianrichardson7946]

They don't call them death wheels for nothing, glad you all weren't hurt. Couldn't really see the piece that you were showing the camera because the graphic was on screen at the same time but I imagine it looked gnarly.

[@capt.spaulding5858]

Ya beat me to it ! 🤣

[@jerrybailey5797]

Wow that as a lucky escape you had there lan 😮 , glad you're ok Sir. We can all get complacent at times , take care out there 👍

[@martyb.1291]

Looking good I'm excited for you Jamie to get it done! Ian I'm glad your ok stay safe 👽🤟👽😎👊

[@The.Real.Timmii]

Thank God you are ok!

[@samuelnoller1565]

Grinders of all kinds are no joke. In machinist's school, i saw a kid not activate the magnetic chuck on a surface grinder. A 1x1x2" chunk of steel took a chunk out of the cinder block wall and flew half way across the shop. That would kill. Every grinding wheel/attachment has a max rpm for a reason!

[@huntz3215]

Even a twist on a cutting disc is enough to have them explode, never did see where the pieces went.

[@Curleyutube]

Genius to time this project with Masters of Air on Apple TV. Leaning into that WW2 nostalgia. Love it!

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Glad you’re okay 😮

[@fredcarrano]

Great safety information. Happy you did not get hurt from that exploding disk. Now for the steering. WOW. great job!

[@user-ds9ce1db4z]

When using a holesaw, drill with a 1/4"and bit then put a 1/4" cut off bolt in your drill to keep from breaking your bit hurting yourself with the holesaw

[@johnnypetross7204]

Glad you’re OK

[@jimwhittemore1610]

Good to be lucky too, stay safe both of you. Kind of a layered video, US Army vet

[@bigd2203snuffy]

👍🏻 Every day is a school day! Everyone needs a reminder to be safe.

[@aaronfranson7564]

Thankfully you are alright!

[@user-jh1yv2ui2i]

Love the Marine Corps Hymn

[@baileyrivers7771]

You are so lucky you didnt get any major damage when the grinder exploded,years ago a friend of mine was trimming a large grinder wheel on his lathe when it exploded ,there were 3 of us standing around the lathe when it happen ,i dont how but none of us got hurt ,the large grinding wheel was all over the place ,it was sheer luck we didnt get hurt so i know how you feel, Jamies jeep seems to be steering in the right direction ,going to be one sweet ride ,i still think you need to get Jamie a Mini Moke California then she would have a full set ,keep up that good video work Jamie

[@Gas_n_Gears]

My uncle built a CJ-2A with a 427 Chevy and started mud racing. They hated to see him show up because they knew who was going to win. RIP Uncle Homer! The motor pool in heaven is a lot faster now.

[@davidohler5611]

So cool you can update this piece of history. NOS/surplus was my salvation when I had my 54 M37 and 53 Willy’s M170. Enjoying watching this adventure - Thanks for sharing once again.

[@matthewcheney9161]

You are lucky not to have gotten hurt. There is a piece of a cut off wheel in my shop ceiling... I leave it there as a reminder

[@dougwiest9318]

DITTO. SAID THE 4" WHEEL WAS GOOD TO 17,000. THE CUTOFF TOOL SAID 17,800 MAX. WHOOPS. STILL HALFWAY IN MY CEILING TOO.

[@SteveBueche1027]

Can’t wait to see what’s cooking today.

[@brianwillerton8659]

Making that Wooden Indian sculpture I showed you, I was doing the same thing with a grinder, but I had all the PPE on because I'm a wuss and hate getting hurt like when big chunks of walnut came flying off, it made me gratefull...be careful, Big Guy, we dig having yew around, even if yew has a nurse on hand for special occasions! ark!

[@gregorysuddeth581]

Semper Fi Ian.

[@br549200]

I’d watch to listen to Jamie laugh!

[@achilesmalta3827]

Wow! Glad you are OK, Ian. I am glad that in the work that I do, I don't have to use tools: There is safety in just using computers and reading books 🙂!

[@aaronbieman3490]

I do hand finish work. I have prescription safety glasses and wear a full face shield along with hearing protection (ear plugs), and I always wear gloves appropriate for the work you are doing. Yes I am required to use these protection items and I want to.

Not really fair that the entire steering system completes only one check box. Glad you are both safe from the death wheel. I got hit by a cutoff disc once. Now I suit up for combat whenever I use it.
