OTHER NOTES
▶ For the epoxy application, I used three coats of TotalBoat Penetrating Epoxy (link above), thinning the first two coats with acetone. Once that cured, I gave the surface a light sanding and applied two coats of TotalBoat Gleam 2.0 Spar Varnish in gloss, followed by two coats of satin, per their instructions. - Навчання та стиль
This is incredibly beautiful. Great job!
The nerdy internet troll guy voice you do is the best! Damn funny!
I love both of their Troll Voices. Wes' Troll still has to wear his head gear (ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY HEAD GEAR!?!?) I think Jimmy and Wes' Trolls need their own podcast where they break down everything that is wrong with their own videos. Call it "Actually, That's Factually Inaccurate".
Loved the out of no where sing-songing from "Little Shop of Horrors"!
Also, nice ending! 😉👍😂
Gorgeous dude! I especially love the way you managed transferring your intended layout to the physical piece. I feel like I should give you a typography high five and say something like, nice kerning bro!
Great video. Your humor, production quality and projects are a treat!
So good to see another video of yours. After binge watching your back catalogue I’ve missed laughing alongside admiring your beautiful creations. Good to have you back and thank you for sharing your content. I love it.
Looks great. Dont forget to water the plants
Three ferns and a rocket ship walk into a bar . . . Another great project. Oh the punchline? They said "Ouch!"
Love the Jetsons sound bytes
And there was me thinking about the good old days with Jetson sound effects. Thanks Wesley
Enjoyed watching as usual! Thanks for sharing Wesley, I always learn something new whether it's a new technique or material.
As always, beautiful work. You really seem like You love what You're doing, it's a blessing to find Your perfect place in life. Keep up the good work!
Great ending!
That primer spray can was incredible! Love your work.
Awesome as always!
So clean. So classy.
I love it!!!
Ha ha! Brilliant ending 😄 and a superb sign.
Good watching a craftsman at his work.
I love watching you work. I’ve missed your videos.
👍😎👍. And Wesley, what a great world it is to have you in it 🙂
Beautiful work as usual. More please.
Excellent ... as always!
Awesome work Wesley! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

Creativity overload ! Wow Awesome 👌✌
Nice sign work
“...Seymour’s your friend!” Great build 👍 thanks for sharing 🙏 BTW, that cool spray cap is called a Transversal or Calligraphy Cap. That was a big ol’ can-o-paint! 😱
Sign here. Nice job.
Always a Treat to get a new video from Wesley Treat 🤙😊
Congrats on 100k!!
Good video like always.
Great job. I love this channel.
Just awesome! I love your videos!👍🏻
I had a little heart attack at 10:16 when I thought the WHOLE SIGN WAS FALLINGOFFTHETABLEOMG. Oh, it was just the camera moving.
I love this channel!
FEED ME SEYMOUR!!
Thank you Wesley!
i subscribe to a bunch of channels, but Wesley Treat is the only one for which i have notifications turned on.
Love the little shop of horrors song..
Great video and build. Always entertaining. Love the ending. Mahalo for sharing! : )
love the little shop of horrors nod
😂 Thanks for the explanation. Awesome work as always.
Great video as always! I like how you used both foam tape and silicone to secure the letters to the substrate. Im gonna have to remember that trick!
Thanks! Learned that one on a sign makers forum.
The combo of the VHB and the secondary curing adhesive is brilliant.
From what I understand, it's a fairly common combination in the sign industry.
I continue to be amazed by your creativity and skills. You truly have the ideal situation: your vocation is your avocation. I'm more than a little jealous!
I'd love to see you do a clock project that replicates the one on the Hudsucker building from the movie "The Hudsucker Proxy". It has such an Art Deco vibe.
If I could afford Patreon, I would definitely sign up. If things improve, I probably will.
Waiting with worms on my tongue ("baited breath") for your next project.
So nicely done! I love how you keyed the spaceship to the C. And you could have sung a Little Shop of Horrors song when your finger was bleeding too...
(excellent ending, btw. I laughed)
Thanks! Yeah, I thought of that later and I tried to come up with a way to connect those scenes in editing, but unfortunately I couldn't make it work. And my Audrey II voice was terrible, so it got cut. 🤷♂️
Great outro. Got a decent cackle from me :D
That symbol is so at the point. Earth, what's that like? Ehh, plastic plants and LEDs! 😂
I love 123 primer, but I've never seen it in spray tins here in the uk
Congratulations for 100000 subscribers
Ferns are great. I like ferns.
Your troll voice is perfect!
I always end up with spatter on the threads when I try to weld a bolt. Good job!
Thanks! Might need to increase your gas flow. (Keep in mind, I barely know what I'm talking about.) 👍
Come for the project stay for the comedy
I love so much your videos and your signs ! Mooooooooooooore !!!! :-)
Im your 100 000 subscriber! Really happy i found you :D
I was a theatre kid too. " I come for love, I come to Aldonza for loooooove!"
You should learn to "Router"!!!
You forgot to say it so I did for you!!!
Keep Rocking it out Brother!!!
Your videos are a Treat to watch.
I'm sure you've never heard that one before. ;)
Nice result! Backlighting wins every time. Are you bothered by the zinc fume Mafioso too?
Regards,
Mark Presling Australia 🇦🇺😃
The troll voice cracks me up! Every Single Time
Yay! haven't even watched it yet and I know it's gonna be good
So at the beginning when you're straining to open the ring, why didn't you just close the vise jaws, slip the ring over them and then open them up? The ring is clearly large enough to fit.
Thanks! They really weren't that hard to bend. 👍
I love the troll voice.... that would be a humorous April fools video...
Not only can you not weld, nor saw, you can't mimic my voice as a troll!! I lost my lisp in a terrible weedwacker accident! 🤣🤣
Wow! I always wondered how they align the letters so perfectly. How did you cut that stencil? Great work and a pleasure to watch as always!
Thanks! Printed it out and cut it with an Xacto. 👍
This is fantastic, really nicely put together and well considered at every step. How would you ship something like this? Do you end up building custom crates for lots of your work too?
Thanks! I sometimes crate if it's going by one of the commercial shipping companies. This will be part of a shipment of several items, so I'll hire a private shipper, who'll take it door to door and ensure that everything is wrapped and secured properly.
How hard do you have the squeeze your taps to extract that tap water?
The only complaint I have about your videos is that there isn't enough of them!
lol I like your troll voice better than Jimmy's baby voice.
👍👍👍👍🍻nice
Yeah don't breath the zinc fumes, I agree with yourself.
Actually, if you needed to do tons of these, maybe etch off the zinc with muriatic acid and you'd get better welds. Not so much about the strength, as it is about how easy it is to make look nice and clean up with a grinder.
Yeah, in another case, I might take the time to do that, but these welds are hidden and don't need to be that strong. 👍
You should learn to saw. You should learn to weld. You should learn to rout. You should learn to tap. ... Water. You should learn to.... Awww, mever mind. Great job! =0)
Always great to see your process. Did you hand cut the paper template? And his are those ferns doing with the hot glue fertilizer?
Thanks! Yeah, I print templates out at Kinko's, glue them to posterboard to keep them flat, then cut out what I need.
@@WesleyTreat Gotta get a laser! Or a vinyl/craft cutter cnc.
Any reason to not use the router instead of the jig saw to cut the circle out of the wood?
Didn't want a hole in the middle. 👍
“Not the hole” 🤣
Critics can tell you 100 ways you're doing it wrong but never do anything themselves
Knot the hole - hahaha
Because you didn't have room for 4 ferns?
Awesome as usual... So... uhm, you gonna answer that question?
Yes.
@@WesleyTreat You're the king, Wes. Lol
does this mount to the wall behind Earth's front desk to welcome the aliens here?
I ALWAYS SUSPECTED YOU WERE A THEATRE KID!!!!
And with a degree to prove it. 👍
Where do you get your PVC sheet from?
I get them locally from a plastics supplier.
I like the giant eye bolts you made! Handy idea.
I don't get the troll comment though. Why would a troll have concern for safety?
They use safety as a pretext to admonish people for doing things they're afraid to try.
Why is there a rocket ship and three ferns on that sign?
12:21 you missed the obvious "knot the hole"
I went back and forth on it. 😄
Came to the comments to say the same thing... I think he didn't want to go "out on a limb" with the pun. :)
Your rocketship sounds like a table saw...
Ah. A classic "Neal Stephenson" style ending I see...
What's Rick Moranis doing these days I wonder.
You have got to work on your JDiresta Troll voice.....
He has his troll, I have mine. 👍
YoU HavE To wORk oN YoUR JdiREsrA trOLL voICe......
At least Wes has the cojones to use it in a video. Lol
When you learn how to weld you'll know how to handle the smoke fumes.
So...Why IS there a rocket ship and three ferns on that sign? I know, I know...I have to pay to play...
No, you should pay because he makes interesting things and supporting the content creators we enjoy helps ensure that content will continue. But I will spoil the answer for you, it's a reference to an ancient Persian riddle, though it originally was about a camel and three ficus.
@@paradigm5150 Well...I stand chastised...
@@misterhat5823 I'm going to have to disagree. All of the maker channels I've seen are basically useless aside from inspiring ideas, and most tend to just regurgitate what is popular at the moment. I like to support makers who do something different, or who inspire me with different tools and techniques. Those whose content I enjoy I like to support so they know they are appreciated and they don't quit. As far as "teaser and shill videos" he only adds a couple more minutes to the Patreon videos, so this is hardly just a teaser. And I was joking about the meaning of the rocket ship and three ferns, the Patreon video ends the exact same way as this one. That's his sense of humor, which is one of the things I enjoy about his videos.
@@misterhat5823 You sure find a lot of ways to complain about videos you clearly don't want to watch.
@@misterhat5823 Mister Hat!!! Quit pooping in my thread! My post was intended to be lighthearted. While I am NOT a patreon of Mr. Treat's I certainly support his ability to make an income off of his channel. If he annoys you with his humble request to pay for extra content then go watch a van dweller or something.
I've got nothing. I'm just here to feed the algorithm. Is this tasty, Algorithm? Is this the attention you live upon?

Yes because "muh free content" takes time and resources to make.
