Welcome to the Nicole Bianco Designs Channel
Personally I'd recommend printing the PLA prints sideways directly onto the printplate. That way only an edge of the coin is down and you retain details on both sides.
This was super useful, thank you! I'm trying to figure out a better tool than X-ACTO knives for cutting foam board for RC planes, and this appears to be the most cost-effective option.
I completely agree and glad you liked the video. There are so many hobby power tools that can do the job well and significantly faster/easier on your hands. Thank you for watching!
ok i have the pdf, to what scale do i enlarge it too? right now its the size of a single sheet of paper.
Hello, Thank you for watching my video! You should be able to select the poster printing option and it will print 100%. I updated the version of the pdf with the sizing specifications on the blog post just in case that is needed. It should print on multiple to the correct size. Thank you, Nicole
Out of curiosity how long was the handle with the head attached
I need foam that 0.8 or 0.6 for flowers where to buy in B.C. Canada
Hello, Thank you for the comment. I am unsure about Canada but I would check to see if the stores mentioned in the video ship to Canada. In the US, they have started selling EVA foam at local craft stores and even Dollar stores in some areas.
Thanks for the help! really very helpful)
Glad it helped! Thank you for watching!
Hi where I can buy footwear eva foam in usa like 55-60 shore c or 60-65 shore c , thankz
do you think a bench saw would do the same job or better?
Any saw that has a small blades would be better. Something like the scroll saw in the video, a band saw, and even small hobby table saws (thinking the small one sold by Harbor Freight for example) would work. You want fine detail blades to make the cuts smooth against foam. Hope that helps! Thank you for watching the video!
This is really useful, thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have any more questions and I would be happy to help! Thank you - Nicole
Amazing Job!!
Wait, I could have been tilting the foot as well the entire time?? Thanks so much for pointing this out (and the other tips)!
This comment is a complete mood. I love that this saw has the ability to add an angle when cutting. I would have never thought of it until my dad pointed out that the foot tilted as well. I literally said "why didn't I think of that???" I hope the tips help and thank you for watching the video. I appreciate it!
How is the thread getting on needle threaded. Your hand is in view when you hit button second time.
How much was your machine?
Good information
I think this is brilliant! I love doing things like this for my campaigns. Thank you so much for sharing your crafty creativity! You're an inspiration to the community!
Thanks!! This comment made my year so thank you for your kind words. I appreciate them.
Nice informative video Nicole, I am planning to cut the foam for my tools with EVA foam, can you also use a hot wire?
what's the price for this machine.. looking around and can't get a price, I've seen 2 or three prices, but it was up there in price , where I'm not believing it's the right price.
Ray, Prices for this machine vary a lot based on your location. My suggestion always when looking for any embroidery machine is contact several dealers and get their current price/offer deals. Some may be a better price or come with more add ons but be just a little more of a drive. Also depending on which dealer you get it from they may have incentives like 1st tune up is free. I have seen prices vary over thousands of dollars. It just depends. I hope this helps! Good luck!
What did you use the sample embroidery for? I would have cut a pocket for a polo shirt. This would be awesome to show off when you make the first design shirt.
Thanks for that great video! :)
Thats amazing!
Thanks!
Wow what an awesome video. The DT is my favorite weapon in dnd and you absolutely nailed it 👏👏🙏
Can it be used to cut foam board??
Hello Dion! I believe if you use a thin blade on a higher speed, it would cut foam board. The real test would be if it would cut it nicely on both sides. Definitely worth a try just make sure to be safe especially with the particles. Some of the particles from foam board can be nasty/toxic. Hope this helps!
I'm creating a culture in which the act of gifting someone a Deck of Many Things is effectively telling that person you want their campaign to end immediately, and permanently.
Super chaotic! It would be cool if that was a part of the campaign dynamic. Like if a player character accepts the deck and picks a card, that triggers the reality to change. ::starts to write a new campaign setting right now::
Thank you for your video dear. Is this a commercial embroidery machine?
No problem! So it is kind of in-between. It is marketed for those who do a bunch of embroidery projects and might want to have an embroidery business.
@@nicolebiancodesigns7793 Thank you for your quick response.
you are so right that that there is NOT any good videos of setting up your new Brothers machine. i purchased m9ne last year April 2020. i did a couple of projects, but now my dilemma is how to transfer new projects to my machine. do you have a video available for help? thanks again
Hello Ruby! I do not have a video yet but you let me know what kind of videos you would love to see and I will get right on it! Thanks for the 1st suggestion - I will add it to my list and make a quick video.
Great concepts for a project like this.
Thank You for the inspiration!!!! Looks awesome
Bonjour est il possible d’avoir l’explication en français s’il vous plaît . Merci
What is the largest area you can embroider on this machine? I have the Personna PRS100 and thinking about upgrading to this model.
Good camera angles.
Thank you!
I am looking for an EVA foam to glue on kitesurfing bars as handle grips.. What density would you say is best for that aplication? And where could I get it in different colors. The thickness is 2mm
I ended up printing the coins in silk gold, silver, copper, platinum, and silk green pla with my under 3pro. No painting needed and they turned out great.
That sounds so amazing! What is your go to brand for those colors? I am always looking for cool color options to try out and tell others about.
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool!
Thank you!
This is super cool, I want to make this for my players :)
Can you use eva for making slippers?
EVA Foam could be used for the inside. Most thin EVA foam isn't strong enough to withstand becoming a full slipper. Like a flip flop. I have seen a ton of people making EVA foam covers for shoes to make boots for cosplay. Those usually are thicker EVA Foam more like the workout mat thickness.
@@nicolebiancodesigns7793 cool. Thanks for the info.
@@wormwood6424 Any time!
Thanks for sharing and thumbs up 😚
Thanks for sharing and thumbs up 😊
Thank you so much for watching!!
If you want more info on priming, punished props has a great video on a bunch of different methods
Love their videos. Thought I would provide a quick post about what I do.
If you're going to be doing cosplay for more than one piece of a costume, I highly recommend a kershaw sharpener, foam dulls blades incredibly quickly, so after every cut you want to sharpen your blade, it will save you a lot of money, and blades
where do you get Prop Monkey Primer?
TNT Cosplay. They have two sizes but the small size really does cover a lot. tntcosplaysupply.com/product/prime-by-prop-monkey-studios/
Great video girly!! ❤
Thank you!!! Trying to make them happen!
What gel type Rosco or Lee?
Very cool goggles!! Love them!!
Ha ha ha googles🤪
THANKS!

Clever idea, printing bitcoin 🤭
Cool project! :)
Would hot glue work for EVA foam?
Hot Glue does work but I wouldn't advise it for your EVA project gluing. More information: Hot glue tends you unglue depending on the fluctuation of temperature and it doesn't allow for seamless visuals. Now if you want to use it to attach some details and you will cover your project with a thermoplastic, it might be okay. If you are worried about fumes from contact cement, there are other glues that work, as well as, a company named Cosbond who makes non-toxic glue sheets. I am working on a video talking about their products because I love new options and some people may not know about those options. Hope this helps and let me know if you want more information!
You can use hot glue, and if you work with it enough and learn how to use it well you can get near seamless, seams. Also you can fill seams with a product called kwik seal, it's a flexible caulk that you can smooth with water, I reccomend this as a final step before priming, as it takes a while to fully cure. Elmer's rubber cement is also a decent adhesive option, I haven't put it to the full test, but it's plenty strong for most things, use more than one layer, and either put a line of hot glue on the back of the seam, or a strip of thinner foam to really hold it together
Btw, you can print coins on SLA printer without support,) I have anycubic too and its work, and quality of model will be really cool)
