- I had the pleasure to visit Jamey Jordan in his recently-refurbished home shop, and he offers a lot of insight about the surprisingly simple tooling he uses on a bead roller to create his exquisite artwork in metal.

I have lots more RUclips videos, and here's a link to my website - which lists 20 full-length videos you can rent, stream, or download, plus the Covell line of fine-quality metalworking tools: covell.biz/
You can see the great Covell shirts, cups, and stickers here: rons-store-10.creator-spring.com Авто/Мото
I can understand how he does the artwork, but I would like a video on how he keep his workshop so clean.
Yeah - I wish I could keep my place like that!
Starts with: don't be lazy.
I mean don't forget that this is not really a machining workshop. There's no chips flying around, no coolant, no wood dust, etc...
If you weld (and then have to sand), or mill, or turn, or grind metal, I think your shop will require a lot more cleaning :P
I can tell you how; "Ron Covell is coming to my workshop to film."
Fantastic Ron. 👍👍👍I love yours videos.
Wow - three thumbs up! I'm very glad that you liked this video, and that you took the time to comment!
That was great Ron.
Thanks for posting.
Thanks, Joe - I'm glad you liked it!
Ron's smile at the end is so wholesome. One of the most heartwarming metalshaping videos I've seen.
Thank you so much!
How C😎😎L Ron ! Thanks for sharing & you too Jamey 👍
Thanks, Rod - glad you liked it!
Incredible! Thanks for sharing another great artist
Jamey truly is an artist!
@@RonCovell he is an aspiration. I didn't realize that it was possible to do this kind of work with such a simple machine. It's like quilting metal. Beautiful results
Thanks RonCowell, for your great job sharing. those hand make craft are attractive.
I'm glad you enjoyed this video!
That was really cool!
Glad you liked it!
Very clean work. Great Job!
Thank you!
Always good to see Jamey at work. I miss doing beadroll art, time to get drawing I think. Thanks for making this video Ron. 👍
Alan - I'm delighted that you liked this video. I would love to see a new video from you where you do some great work with a bead roller!
Jamey is an awesome guy and a great teacher
I certainly agree!
That is amazing
Jamey is a very talented man, and a nice guy, too!
Jamey's work is straight up otherworldly. I would love to see some type of collaboration piece with his beadrolling on the flatter surfaces, and some of your incredible hammerwork to create a 3d piece. A dashboard or something like that comes to mind. Two masters of the craft, for sure.
I would certainly welcome a collaboration with Jamey, but he is fully capable of making 3-dimensional forms from sheetmetal!
@@RonCovell oh absolutely, but 2 chefs don't make the same chicken soup.
Fantastic video Ron. I'm a beadrolling artist, no where near Jamey Jordan's level, I learned a secret for what sets his work apart from everyone else. I didn't know he used a skateboard wheel to give it that extra flare. I've seen the flare and have tried replicating it with other dies. So thank you for coaxing that out. I know I appreciate it
I'm very glad you found some useful information here!
I am not a metal fabricator or beadroller artist however my idea to you would be to try and 3D print your own type wheels. You can try out many iterations. They will not hold up well for a long time but they are very cheap, and once you found a great shape or shapes for you you can still mke them out of metal.
The collab on a bike would be something I'd be interested in seeing.... 😁
Hi Ron its Adrian from australia I've just about got all your dvds and put them to practice. The art Jamey is doing is fantastic and makes me want to try it 👌
I hope you DO try it!
what a nice clean and quiet workshop , great work.
Tom - I certainly agree. Everything in Jamey's shop is as 'clean as a whistle', and well organized. I only wish I could keep my shop anywhere close to that clean!
@@RonCovell To be fair I dont think there has ever been so much as a grinder turned on in there ... lol
Jamey does most of his dirty work outdoors in a nice, covered area.
I just found your channel Ron. I'm not a metal worker at all but all of your content is fascinating!
Thanks!
These signs look fantastic
Glad you liked them!
@@RonCovell I like them very much, I also like your work. You have inspired me to do a small project of my own in fact.
I have build a wall cupboard for the living room, to store Blu Rays and DVD´s.
The only piece missing is a sliding door. Initially I wanted a 3D printed design but I think I will be making a sheet metal door instead, with nice round lightening cut out´s with flanges, this way I can practice using dimple dies which I intend to 3D print (I don´t have a workshop I live in a small apartment). And as a "skin" panel I will be using a Polycarbonate sheet to not hide the metal structure beneath and also as a window for the movie collection.
Now I have seen those beautiful panels, those would fit as a sliding door as well, with some movie themes on them.
Yeah, greetings from Poland ✌️
Glad you liked it!
I am familiar with bead rolling for cars... but wow... this is on a whole different level. Great work! Looking forward to checking out more of your videos soon! Got your name from Keep it Kustoms 👍
Welcome aboard, and I have a LOT more videos you may find interesting!
Great interview Ron but i wanna add this lower rubber wheel on bead roller it was Wrays Schelin idea .
first thing that came to mind is do embossed skulls and gravestones to a chevy panel truck lower quarters to make a hot rod "grave digger" then airbrush the details in , oooooh Buddy that would win at a show for sure!
Hey - perhaps you are the right person to do this!
Hi Ron. I love mechanics and above all create and invent. I have learned mechanics, welding, working the video fiber, to be able to make all kinds of pieces.
But I have not had the opportunity to learn how to work sheet metal. I find it exciting what you do with your tools and your knowledge.
Have you thought about teaching online? I think it would be a good idea, I am convinced that there are many people who would like to learn how to use your tools.
Thank you very much for your videos.
Well, I think that many of my online videos are designed to teach people metalworking techniques. Perhaps you have some other idea about how to 'teach' online, and I'm eager to hear your ideas!
@@RonCovell I think you make it very clear in your video's that you have courses available. So either they "haven't seen it" or they mean "put it on youtube" ;)
Wow !!!
I'm very glad you liked this video, and took the time to comment!
Muy buen artista un gran saludo desde argentina
¡Gracias por ver mi vídeo!
I wish i could be his student and learn his art
Jamie does give classes!
👏👏👏👏maquinas boas mas o rapaz já trabalha muito bem.
Nosso dinheiro aqui não vale nada mais essas maquina de vocês e um sonho.
Compreendo. Muitas pessoas fizeram suas próprias máquinas a partir de sucata.
Great
Thanks!
nice
Thanks!
🤙
Wow, never even conceived that such a thing was possible. Thought bead rollers were for doing very basic edges. So, I guess that's a DC powered roller? Is that aluminum sheet, I wonder. Definitely something that's accessible to people; I can see a lot of people placing orders, as opposed to parts for a $30,000 bike or $100,000 car. And that shop is cleaner/nicer than most people's homes!
Glad you liked the video. Yes, the motor is DC: www.grainger.com/product/DAYTON-DC-Gearmotor-90VDC-4Z130
Jamey works with aluminum sheet.
@@RonCovell Thanks!
Aww...yet another thing I'd like to learn, but no time to do it.
You can do it if you put your mind to it!
👍👍👍👍👍cooooooool
Hey - I'm so glad you liked it!
What's he working with ga. wise and material?
I believe Jamey is using .062" (1.6mm) 3003 H-14 aluminum
Ковёр в мастерской , нормально.
Спасибо за комментарий!
Поставить под стол кнопку, которая будет отвечать за силу давления ролика, так вроде лучше будет.
Это отличная идея!
I wonder what the bead roller cost , i bet more than my cheap one
You can see the listing here:

Ron Covell only 10 times but it looks like very good quality, and built for professional use
need a computerized bead roller
I'd like to see that!
Ron, I was always thinking, yeah it's ok for Ron to be travelling all over the country working, but I'm not a young as I was so I'm taking it easy. Now I find that your are five years older than me ! Stop selling videos and instead sell whatever you are taking.
Todd - I just turned 76, and I do plan to cut down on my traveling in the future. Most of my travel was based around teaching, and starting in 2021, I plan to teach primarily from my home base in California. I think I was blessed with 'good genes', since I do feel like I am holding up pretty well, and I see others my age with more visible ailments. The primary thing I have done is to keep a positive attitude, and I do my best to avoid people who have a negative attitude.
@@RonCovell Thanks Ron, you are an inspiration to all us old metal freeks. Keeping positive is essential, being enthusiastic is another key to a good life. It's obvious that you have both of these attributes.
