Bad Ass job! Thank you for sharing your time and talent!!
Great video! Suggestion - get an HVLP spray gun for finishing (much faster spraying and way more uniform in finish) - and finish your flag FLAT - don't do it standing up, way to much chance for drips and runs....I use General Finishes waterbased satin 450...been doing signs for 15 years on the CNC.
Great explanations and awesome video! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!
Another awesome video! Thank you
Thank you Sir!
Really like the approach and explanation of your possess. Thanks for your time sir.
Thank you! People either compliment the detail or complain I talk to much - Can't win LOL
Hey! Can you show us a video of how to use the CNC router?
What I want to know is how do you package and ship the flag.
Pretty cool! I make my flags all by hand, aside from using stencils for my graphics and a dremel to carve them out…. so time consuming🥵 nice work!!
Much respect to my fellow hand made flag makers 😂 tons of work 👍🏼🍻
Nice work great looking flag. Liked how you explained the different polys. On the first project for a picture frame it was good until I placed the poly on and turned yellow I spent the next 2 hrs painting the letters and washing off the excess paint. What bits do you use when you cut the emblem and stars.
Either a 60 or 90 V-Bit and always make sure it's sharp and high quality! I love poly, minus the issues with coloring :)
What bit did you use for the fine details in the seal.
where do you get the wood blanks? And how thick is it?
Hi Ryan , As a newby through your vids i have in vectric aspire sorted the majority of things - the one thing i need your help with is the tool you use for carving out your ARMY Logo - it never looks right when i do it
what vee bit did you use for the army logo
Awesome work! Any advice for someone like me who is interested in learning more about this skill? Thank you
Yup, watch as many UA-cam videos as you can as well as joining FREE cnc groups on Facebook!
wow cool best wishes from england mate
Where do you get your designs for the seals from?
Cool flag! Maybe consider making a video to show how to build the file. I was perusing youtube trying to find a video that shows me how to insert, for example, the army logo on the flag. Granted, I'm using a laser engraver, but dxf file should be a dxf file in the end.... I just don't know how to overlay the image that I want on the flag and have it visually fit, have a nice border around it and just looks like it belongs there. I know, I know...."there's so many different softwares, skill levels, etc.. out there". If you know how to use a couple different programs then make a couple different videos (that's more clicks and views for you). Maybe make one for the big ones CorelDraw, Lightburn, Adobe, etc... Just an idea. Either way, awesome flags. Glad I found your channel......>>Dean
Hi Ryan. Can you tell me the name of your CNC machine and did you take a class at a college or where did you learn how to use it? Is it a difficult learning process? I’m a jar head retired police officer so I’m board getting into the hobby. Thanks brother. Look forward to seeing more videos.
Is that oil-based or water-based?
How do you keep the pine from bowing. Every time I buy glued up pine it's bowed and then add stain it gets worse
I’m guessing the vertical slats he attaches to the back help prevent bowing.
For stars on bigger flags do you prefer using a 60 or 90 degree v bit?
It's really all personal taste or preference, for me I stick with 60* on smaller stars!
Is that one piece of pine or did you glue up two pieces?
Glued up. Can’t find pine in a solid piece that wide. 👍🏼
Looks Great!!!
I’m surprised your using rattle cans though.
Explain to me why I shouldn’t? Then we can talk about it.
@@RISENGRINDWORKSHOP
If your Producing a Fair Quantity it maybe more cost effective to purchase a can and spray with a gun.
@@RISENGRINDWORKSHOP
By being able to control the PSI also gives you more control on the Finish.
@@Ricks2Cents Your response was smart enough to get a reply :) - for short runs, rattle can all day! For production runs, I break out the HLVP spray gun. It’s still such a marginal amount of paint that gets laid down, that cans work just fine! Thanks for commenting and the compliment! 🍻
@@Ricks2Cents Have you painted CNC machined pine? There is no finish. These get painted and poly. Done! Not going to sand pockets and prime and sand again for a 150 wall flag! BUT yes spray guns for the win all day!!!!! In a production space.
what are the dimensions
18x35
I'm an airbrush artist. So far frog tape has disappointed me every time. Paint seems to get under the frog tape.
Wow that’s the fist time I’ve heard anyone complain about frog tape. I just picked up an airbrush gun myself. Granted I’m no artist. Really wish I could airbrush. It’s one of my favorite things to watch people do!! Maybe try using a rubber roller to get some good down pressure. I also see they make a “delicate surfaces” version and it’s yellow.
@@RISENGRINDWORKSHOP just practice. That's all . Watch how to's as well. It's really a good tool to master if you're into making artwork. Plus you can always ask for help. I'll lend a hand.
Way to technical for me to follow. I build flags by hand. Much more personal. But I do it for fun does not profit.
