I had my 12 yr-old daughter make this for her mom for Valentine's Day today. She did ALL the work herself and it came out great. I tried to tag you on Instagram but couldn't find a profile for you. Thanks so much for the idea. I also picked up some butter knives with the idea of making a dragon fly.
Great video! I really appreciate your sense of humor! I have 3 teenage boys. 14,15 and 17. I am going to start sharing your videos with them. My 15 yr old really loves art and is creative. Maybe a future metal sculptor? Thank you
Videos are great, very entertaining , love the music ! Very relaxing after a long day in the shop ! By the way , listened to your podcast the other day . You are very down to earth , hard working Country Girl! Much success to you !
I have NO experience with a welding machine (is that what you call it? LOL), but as an old time jeweler, I'm impressed! Not that a torch would solder or weld those spoons ANYway, but even if it did, a torch is slower than Christmas and makes a mess of metal that has to be cleaned up! I want to weld now!!! LOL
do you have a segment that teaches which types of silverware work? like actual silver ware or metal only? and that teaches welder setting stuff for people that have no clue like me? lol
My 11 yr old grandson tried his hand at the dog, it was his first try at welding. I would love to show you a picture but I can't put one on here I guess. I went for something much easier, the scorpion! The next day my grandson designed and welded his version of a peacock for his mother's garden and tomorrow says he will do your archer but with a sword and shield instead of bow and arrow.
My settings won’t work for you. Wire size, travel speed, distance from workpiece all come into play. Use the chart inside your welder to get your starting parameters using what wire thickness, material type and thickness and gas you’re using and adjust as necessary for your welding style!
wow I think you have sleep apnea I would recommend to see a sleep doc !! LOL Great work keep it up !! You inspire me to get in the garage and weld some thing :)
I Introduced my 11 year old Daughter to you after I showed her how to cut metal and make a Flower (mig spot weld). She loves your videos, and she wants to know, where is the best place to buy the flatware for these projects. Thanks for your videos.
I purchased an Easywelder to do silverware art. I watch your videos and you just touch weld. I weld the parts together but there is allot of slag and splatter. When I try your way the welds don't hold. Do you use a different type of welder?
I'm a fan of Tig welding. I cut my pieces 1/32 long and that's my filler wire built right in. But being a welder by trade, I know welding tricks and bought my equipment at a production rated level.
70s6 with c25 gas? Do you experience any rust on the stainless? Running 308l wire with tri mix would be ideal but the gas is so expensive for stainless!!!
Great job, Barbie. Want to increase your market? Perhaps you might consider "targeting" your customer base. For example: To sell more product to folks here in Maine (and also wholesale to Maine craft shops), you might consider making moose, black bear, and lobster sculptures with silverware. Targeting Florida customers, maybe alligator sculptures, etc. - you get the idea.
Cause it's not if, it's when. That's what an old pipeliner told me. Always safety first. You only have two eyes, and one face, and ya can't grow a new face, or eyes.
Hey Barbie, I Just found your great videos, they are amazing. You asked for pictures of your projects we completed, I have done a couple and would like to share with you, What is the email address to send?
well i made the dog out of nuts and bolts,i was having so much fun i forgot to put the collar on, sorry barbie.i guess my dog will RUNNOFT, he is NUTS anyway. if you saw the movie , oh brother where art thou ,you will understand the joke .HA HA HA!!!! THANKS HAVE A GOOD ONE!!!!!!!!!
I ordered a pair of them Hot Dog Cooker thingies.........they look re......dick......ulous..........do they telescope out when warmed up?????? ^_^ FYI To other viewers............available for a limited time only in ETSY.........
Please don't weld dogs cats or bunnies. Animal abuse is a serious problem. If the animal is ugly, do whatever you like, nobody cares about ugly or gross animals. Thanks from the dream team of Peta
Thanks! You are funny!
I appreciate you!! 🤘🏻😄⚡️❤️🔥👩🏻🏭
Talented, funny, & hot!! Hat Trick!! Thanks for great video.

eastwood mig 135 on sale often for $220 works great with mig gas

Luv that shirt

Yes!!! Do it!! It’s so much fun!!

Stainless steel silverware only not silver plated, that just melts. On the back of the silverware it will say.
@@BarbieTheWelder thank you for answering
Barbie! you are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love it, cool video,love it when you talk to us, ps love the shirt!!! rock on!!
This is perfect!! I've already made the cat and my kids were asking me to make a dog now.
Woof woof Awesome!
Hi Barbie, do you use stainless steel wire when welding cutlery or is it ok to use regular steel wire or even flux core?
Hi Barbie, when you are mig welding like this where is your ground clamp? Is it attached to the table ?
YES!

Email me at BarbieTheWelder@gmail.com I would love to see!!
Very delicate, lol...
What Volt/Wire speed setting are you using for these tacks?
My settings won’t work for you. Wire size, travel speed, distance from workpiece all come into play. Use the chart inside your welder to get your starting parameters using what wire thickness, material type and thickness and gas you’re using and adjust as necessary for your welding style!
wow I think you have sleep apnea I would recommend to see a sleep doc !! LOL Great work keep it up !! You inspire me to get in the garage and weld some thing :)
I only need 6 hours that gives me 18 to work and I can eat while im working!!!
lmao....good one Barbie ! Nice project :)

I get mine at Salvation Army and rummage sales but if you don’t want to go hunting You can buy them online through a restaurant supply store.

B.T.W. beautiful !
What kind of wire are you using?
Are use an ER70S .030
@@BarbieTheWelder Thanks! Love your work!!!
why not use tig? whys mig better
It depends on the application, both processes have their positives.
Quê lindo 😱😱😲😲😙😘😚👍👍👏👏👏
Why clearcoat it? It's stainless steel flatware, right?
Yes but I’ve used steel wire to weld it so the weld will rust without clear coat.
Er-70 would definitely rust. I use 308 filler rod on stainless flatware. Whenever possible, I like to match the filler rod to the base metal.
Yes that’s ideal but when I made this video I couldn’t afford the stainless
I'm a fan of Tig welding. I cut my pieces 1/32 long and that's my filler wire built right in. But being a welder by trade, I know welding tricks and bought my equipment at a production rated level.
Barbie have you had a synthetic material shirt melt to your skin yet while welding ?
I melted Mickey Mouse shirt some and the Harry Potter one. I usually weld with a jacket over my shirts when yall aint watching!
Hi! Is that arc welding you use? What electrodes you use for welding silver table ware ?
MIG welding with er70s .030 steel wire
70s6 with c25 gas? Do you experience any rust on the stainless? Running 308l wire with tri mix would be ideal but the gas is so expensive for stainless!!!
👍
What this song called? I like it. Also cool dog. I'm going to be making one
Not sure it is on the ap I use to make videos.
I want to weld a microphone stand out of chain for a friend who's in a Blues band..
Was that a Saint Bernard or a Mastiff? Cool puppy!
why do i have the feeling i have to look away when she welds xD
😜 I close my eyes when I edit welding videos!😜
