Where can you get copper?

[angrybird34]

Awesome solder job. They had recently taught me and my class in plumbing shop how to solder a pipe. The seniors were really hard on us freshmen. But soldering is awesome!

[jlyoung89]

Where can I get the mask on the background?

[mpetrie]

@jlyoung89 It's called "Mr. Burns". Just google "Mr. Burns Freddy Mask".

[MyComicStyle]

For how much do you sell these gloves? And do you take orders from Switzerland? If so, could you make me one, large size, really dirty, looking like the glove from the original Nightmare on Elm Street. Would you do that? Please answer.

[mikecjj]

[evildeadbully]

[evildeadbully]

can you send me some of this gloves just for right hand :D? i want one like that it was damn awesome!!

[freedomisthewageofsi]

Do you still build these mate? Your website says everything is sold out.

[mpetrie]

@freedomisthewageofsi Yes, I still build them. I just don't have any in stock to sell at the moment.

[youknowwhoyouare8]

@mpetrie Smart Idea though man, I would only build so many THEN put them up so you still have a social life. Your gloves are great man, nice work.

[Cinchi83]

compliment very very good mark

[TheHippy4life]

could you possibly give me some advise about making a freddy glove? its my first attempt and i would love some pointers about what metals and other materials to use.

[mpetrie]

@TheHippy4life Copper fingers, brass backplates and ringlets, leather gloves, and steel blades. Building a glove is way too intensive for me to really help someone build a glove of their own. It just takes a lot of practice.

[cmonroececil]

Mark I would like to thank you for being generous enough to keep these up. I watch them often and really respect your work. Some people want everything and don't understand that you are showing trade secrets that they should feel lucky to be seeing. I understand your work and I want to give you props on your soldering skills. Very professional work! And thanks again for keeping these videos posted. Everyone should appreciate this.

[sebastian920]

Very cool, thanks for sharing

[777horror]

omg my dad said he could help me build one so my friend blake is getting the metals for me cause his dad teaches welding

[deceptibot1]

how do you attach the peices together?  can you show a video of that

[mpetrie]

Well.. there are some things I didn't want to show because this isn't an entire "Do it yourself" video. It's just a peek into how I make my gloves. It's not meant to teach people how to make their own from beginning to end. So, some things remain in my personal bag of secrets. :)

[vmphuntrd]

hos=how

[vmphuntrd]

this guy makes the best gloves on the planet

the fact that he is showing us hos he dose it is great

ty and keep up all the good work

[bowelrock]

im using this same solder and shit wont work

[mpetrie]

Keep practicing... it's all about practice and trial and error. Takes a while to learn.

[bowelrock]

@mpetrie iM going to pick up some acid flux not water based

[mpetrie]

Never used acid flux before... good luck with it.

[acliffordknives]

Nice how to.......this method can also be used to solder crossguards and blades on any knife. Good job......

[acliffordknives]

how wold you explain how radiator shops repair aluminum radiators? lol

[mpetrie]

You may through the website.

[werstrum]

Not true!

You can solder alloy, it's just just easy, also it can only be done with contact heat and alloy soldier

[carnage2211]

hmmm i made my glove out of stainless steel for the fingers and aluminum for the blades...

[HeadBangerAust]

Nice work dude. i know where to get some sheet copper (if that's what you use) for the fingers, but where do you get the steel for the blades? or could i use an old steak knife?

[ryankrista666]

i love your glove

[SaLsYsTeM4life]

why doesnt my finger tips and blades stick i do the same i use 16 oz copper and alumanum?

[mpetrie]

Not sure.. I only use steel for my blades. That could be it... or something else. Can't really say.
