To finish building the safe, I make a few last minute modifications before getting the safe powder coated. I build wood shelves for the interior of the safe and wrap them in a velvet cloth. Lastly, Kelly designs and hand paints the front of the safe.

Man, you can’t imagine how much I missed the vibe of your videos! ❤ great to see that you’re back

Great and impressive project. I was a.sign painter in the past. One of the ways we would lay out a sign like this would be to draw it on a piece of paper to scale. Then use a tracing tool called a pounce wheel to make small holes on our outlines. We could then lay the sheet out on our sign and pounce it with a small fabric bag filled with baby powder or a charcoal powder if the sign was white. Once lifted we had a delicate but readable layout that we could hand paint directly to. Thank you for sharing your work.

Good to see a new video. The safe is gorgeous and I'm so happy the velvet shelfs worked out because it's amazing. Side note I'm sad we live so far away because me and my friends need more wingspan buddies ;)

I was actually worried that something happened to you m8! Hope you are well and everything's fine. Keep up the great work

This is so refreshing to see someone take time to do something right. Taking time on the welds, powder coating instead of a quick spray paint, velvet, hand painted decals. It could have been done in 1/4 of the time with someone hurrying, but it's refreshing to see someone get all of the details right. Looks amazing, great job.

He was very happy to see you back. It's been a long 10 months of waiting. I hope you'll be able to bring us new videos more often. Congratulations on your work and inspiration.

If you ever get robbed, the robbers will hopefully appreciate the craftsmanship once they open the safe.

Great to see you back JD! And congrats to you both 🥰

We sure miss your metal work and farming videos.

Nice work as always! Good to see you & Kelly once again, and your assistant is adorable. Thanks for sharing!

Gotta say, making a preliminary toolpath to mark out safe spots to put pin nails to secure your workpiece is inspired genius and I'm unashamedly stealing that!

We missed you

Welcome back Justin! We missed you! Nice job as always!

Glad you are back. Hope you had a great farming season. I was wondering when you would have a child! She is adorable! Congratulations!

These videos of yours give me something to look forward to. I’ve missed them. I know I’m not the only one.

I always love your attention to detail throughout the process of everything you do! Like how you marked out the safe locations to shoot hold-down nails on the CNC. Such a good little idea!

Kelly has such a steady hand and the safe looks beautiful. So nice to see your daughter helping out. The artistry goes on… 🙏🏼
