That’s amazing!!! So glad I could help, I bet he looks adorable as a little Eddie 🥹 I think it’s great kids are getting my into metal because of stranger things. 🤘🏻 Also, 2AM?? Damn you must be the best mom ever!

@@JJMetalhead far from best mom but I love you for thinking it! The 2 am was because 1) I screwed up the first couple of tries and 2) I started really late (ok and 3 - watching you with your chalice maybe inspired me to drink a little-lot while designing, hence #1, ha). Would you believe those tasteless little middle school trolls thought he was a “biker” or “pirate”? Ugh. But he’s thrilled and I’m pretty sure the parents and older kids in the area will appreciate it tonight :)

@@mbstewart4810 Hahahaha “Tasteless middle school trolls” I’ve never heard anything truer In my life! Cheers! 🍷

I’m glad you still own them! I hope you do start your own patch business!

That’s awesome! Do it!! 🤘🏻

Glad you found this helpful!

Cool idea IMO would be buy or make a shirt so that when you cut it out it would fit the shape of the back of the vest better

Sounds badass! I wish I was that talented at making my own patches!

@@JJMetalhead thank you! I heard that you can trace a logo over a screen to make good patch. Sometimes I’ll just write the name of the band on the fabric. No real logo.🤟

One of my favorites as well. Check out "Legion" by him, its short but good.

Thank you, and thanks for watching!!

Great tip, I'll have to try that out!

Thank you! Let me know how it goes!

Holy crap! Christian metal is a thing!? Thats the greatest thing I've literally heard all day! Do you have any bands that u would suggest? (Its not for me, it's for my VERY religious grandparents who were giving me crap about punk music and told me I'm going to hell)

@@lucidasewerrat396 The only Christian metal-adjacent bands I know of are Stryper (cheesy 80s glam metal with biblical references) Demon Hunter (a metalcore group that to me sounds like a poor man's Motionless In White), Lamb of God (super well-known), August Burns Red (metalcore), The Devil Wears Prada (metalcore). There's also this thing called White metal (it's just black metal without sacrilegious content). I'm not gonna lie, though, sacrilegious themes are so popular in metal that it's hard to find something without it. Christian metal tends to be very unpopular. This makes sense given metal's history and reputation as "outsider/rebellious" music. Same goes for Punk. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that what your grandparents have an issue with is solely their problem. People will forever have their individual preferences. Feeling you "have to" change yourself to satisfy someone else's wants or expectations, however (with your devout grandparents, in this case), is usually dishonest to your personal character. You owe it to yourself to be the truest version of you. Good luck and have a great day! Signed, an atheist P.

@@averydoesstuff thank you for the recommendations and advice👍👍

@@lucidasewerrat396 No problem! Be sure to check out my comment again, I added several things and made edits.

Lol oops! I didn’t realize that was in the shot hahah

I’ve never even heard of folk punk, but it sounds awesome!!

I'll be posting an update here soon!

Here is my update on the patches: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtt4lrqW07SWf6M.html Thanks for watching. The horror jacket sounds awesome!!

No, I just see them right on by hand. However, if I’m using part of an old tshirt for like a back patch I’ll fold the edges in before sewing so it doesn’t fray.

I love Metallica 🤘🤘

You can, but I wouldn’t as it would likely make them fade very fast. I’d stick to hand washing.

Let me know how it goes! And they've held up pretty well. i did a video update if youre interested: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtt4lrqW07SWf6M.html

@@JJMetalhead Thanks so much! I tried searching the channel but couldn't find anything

Well said. Please don't be dissing other people's choice of music. I thought we were all one family. Metallica are thrash legends and have influenced a lot of people over the years. 🤘🤘

I was just using Pages I think but you can use anything like Word or PowerPoint. Whatever you’re more familiar with. I drink various things throughout lol I can’t remember what it was in this video, probably some kind of beer:)

@@JJMetalhead haha OK thank you, I have a mac and used pages with some success. Thanks again.

They did! However, since 2020 was a total bust, I have not been able to test how they held up through shows/mosh pits/festivals. Hopefully I’ll be putting them to the test by the end of this year.

I just use Microsoft Word or Pages.

I’ve heard of spraying it with hairspray. You can probably find some other good ideas from others in the comments here.

Thank you!! I miss my hair being red. I stopped dying it because it was too much upkeep but maybe one day I’ll go back to it.

Here's what she used as found in the description: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YZ8RVA/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B000YZ8RVA&linkCode=as2&tag=jjmetalhead-20&linkId=063fe0daf44bf845d476ca64d65122dd You can find iron-on transfer paper on Amazon and in craft stores like Hobby Lobby or Michael's. Walmart only carries copy and photo paper. :)

You can also find it at fabric stores or craft stores.

All irons heat settings are different, yours must be a lot hotter than JJs. Try again on a cooler setting, then increase it a little at a time until you get to the right temperature.

Nicole Tuttle No, unfortunately it only works with ink jet printers.

I wouldn’t say paper thin but yes it is quite thin fabric material.

Any ink jet printer will do!

I did I video update! Here it is: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtt4lrqW07SWf6M.htmlsi=mSEW83ttmR_a2EDg

I just use word or pages.

Just Microsoft Word. But any program where you can move images around should work.

I think both those ideas are great! Especially if you’re artistic like that. I think embroidery would be difficult (I could never do it) but I’m sure some people have done it and I bet it looks cool. Would definitely be more unique. I have seen people paint their vest before and it looks really cool. Not sure what kind of paint they use, might me fabric paint. Let me know how it turns out!

@@JJMetalhead okay thank you :D I’ll let you know then its done

@@faydrabassett6771 How'd it go

@@EvelynSucksAtLife it went really well actually, I finished it and had it that way for like a month or two until the paint started comin off and so I bought an actual back patch and now im in the process of sewing that on :]

@@faydrabassett6771 Epic! What patch is it?

I’m not sure but probably quite I bit. Maybe half a cartridge of I were to guess?? RIP Dio!!!

@@JJMetalhead Thank you!

Try this link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YZ8RVA/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B000YZ8RVA&linkCode=as2&tag=jjmetalhead-20&linkId=063fe0daf44bf845d476ca64d65122dd

I have not, though I suppose that would work so long as you still see it on after.

@@JJMetalhead Thanks!

I’d replace your ink cartridge or maybe try running a few sheets of blank paper through your printer to clean it.

Just Microsoft word. But any program you can move picture around on and trust to print well will work.

I found "paint 3d" that's on all Microsoft computers works really well! Just keep in mind, on average, ever inch is 300 pixels, so you can make the page the right size for the sheet (8.5in x 11in) and can make th3 patches the exact size you want relative to the page

I wouldn’t suggest putting it through the washing machine (even for embroidered patches). Definitely hand wash instead.

Or what app can I use to do this

No app needed. I just use Microsoft word or pages to set up the page for print. And I just took the images off google.

@@what.theguac9290 You can use Picsart if you want (an amazing and free alternative to photoshop for mobile phones). You can make and edit almost anything you can imagine on that app for free, if you wanna be artistic with it. Also, if you have a computer that can handle it and know your way around software, GIMP is basically free Photoshop.

@@averydoesstuff or procreate on ipad

Ok you printed it and peeled it and ironed it, but After you peeled the backing off, what did you "iron" it on before rinsing it?

Hahahaha they’re fabric scissors

@@JJMetalhead but why are the handles that gigantic? My fabric scissors are huge too, but yours is quite the pair, but the weirdness is the charm right hahah

@@xjustapersonX Hahaha I guess it’s for people with big hands? Lol 🤷🏻‍♀️

It is indeed! I'm half Filipina.

fandompuppy I haven’t tried it yet, but the fabric is supposed to be washable, I joint don’t know to what extent the ink will fade.
