I build signs, furniture, and decorations out of mainly metal professionally and make videos about some of those projects.
You'll also occasionally get taken along for some of my other adventures like flying drones and climbing radio/water towers (legally).
Visit my at my website: 42Fab.com and follow me on Instagram at instagram.com/42fabdesign for images of some projects that do not make it to a video.
As I have benefited greatly and grown personally and professionally from the mentorship of those that came before me and took some time to teach me, I invite any of my viewers who'd like to learn to join me for a day in the shop, contact me to arrange that if you desire.
Awesome job man! I love The Aspect of Backstage Work and Took 4 years of Tech Theatre In High School and College Courses and I Have landed some amazing jobs.
HOW do you market your service? WHERE do you customers learn about your products? WHAT is your marketing strategy? please describe the efforts you took to get your 1st handful of customers? IF I have all the same equipment, and have made hundreds of parts sitting in inventory, it does me no good if no one calls. What is the method to get someone calling you?
So basically you ignored all the safety rules, yeah this is typical of all these types of videos. You know about safety but you're just going to disregard it.
I am glad you came out with all your fingers! The new contractor saw from Flex has "CutSense" which is an automatic blade stop mechanism which seems like it *might* have helped here. If not completely off, the blade might have been in the slow down phase and maybe the piece wouldn't have come off as fast? I noticed that after the injury you still had the presence of mind to shut off the blade. That seems like another thing that CutSense would have helped on...after a cut, not turning other things into projectiles! I am curious to know whether you think that mechanism would just end up getting turned off in your day-to-day operations?
🔥 I’m feeling the pain of this. I’ve complained three decent jobs, but they all are paying 30 days out. So I have no money for materials for the next job. My business is so new, I don’t qualify for a business loan.
ouch! yeah it is crazy how fast that stuff happens! I have been working with table saws for 30 years now and it is very very rare that I get a kickback these days, I honestly think the last time was 10 years ago and before that probity another 10 years, I use a table saw every single day sometimes all day long so that is a pretty good track record!...that is just because I understand how they work and what I can and can not do. I still do from time to time in a rush make bad decisions backed up by confidence of three decades of experience but that can be very dangerous because the rules have not changed, you can get away with something like this ten times then randomly you get a whole lot of nope from the saw and you can be missing fingers quicker than you can blink an eye. good to see videos like this to remind me to not take risks.just set the cut up as is needed to be safe and take the time to do it safely.
I just had an accident on my table saw because I was in a hurry. I didn’t want to take the time to take 1/4 inch off of 9- 4 ft boards with the planer. So now, I seriously cut 2 fingers, and have 2 fingers with minor cuts. Waiting for the swelling to go down so I can get reconstructive surgery next week.
Do you guys leave the table bed raw steel (no paint)? I have a manufacturer water bed that I'm currently cleaning out (usually do this once a year), and there are spots of corrosion on the bottom, and I'm trying to decide about repainting it before putting everything back together this time around. My water is about 3 inches deep, which tends to keep the bottom in decent shape, but after 7 or 8 years of use, it's getting some spots that could rust through one day.
I left it completely raw. the anti corrosion stuff in the water protects the bed too. little bit of rust around the water line, where the cutter never goes, and on the underside, not enough to matter

We all know what not to do yet when we start rushing we start making bad decisions. Have to move slow and listen to that voice in your head that tells you “wait a second this is stupid”.
