CNC Router Woodworking - This Pisses Me Off!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- CNC router woodworking is an amazing craft for anyone to take up, regardless of what they do. I have seen many craftsmen and woodworkers take it up because their hands were hurting too bad from arthritis or lugging around large lumber from the mill.
Esp[esially for those who are going into retirement and looking for something new to do that is creative. This CNC technology, routers, lasers, plasma, 3d printing are all crafty ways to build a skill. And each one has its own skill to embrace.
This is not to degrade anyone with exceptional skills. It is to call out those who think they are too good to support someone who does not have a master skill but needs to express their own creativity. Encourage, validate, and celebrate!

Garrett, i totally 200% agree. I dont pay to much attention to social media, but I quickly tire of some of the negative comments. I really appreciate your channel and enjoy following you.
I am a retired 74 year old and have taken the plunge recently and bought a cnc. Here in Austalia I managed to get one made here and am setting it up as we speak. I am using vcarve pro and gSender. I must admit I am a tad nervous as I near my first project.
Keep going Garrett, I may well be screaming for help very shortly.
Knottyyash, congrats on your first CNC brother! I am excited to see what you create.
I am glad you touched on this. We all ventured into the cnc world for various reasons. We all have our own story. We never criticize the painter for the brush they use. Without creativity and the skills we learned along the way, its just another tool that would just sit in the corner. To anyone reading this, rest assured, the haters wouldn't even know how to turn on the controller. Thanks for the straight shooting video Garrett!
Kdub, very true brother. Criticism in a negative way never helps people at the end of the day.
As a 65 year old, retired engineer and CNC'er / novice woodworker I closely relate to your experiences and the enjoyment you get from being creative and learning new stuff. I have also had similar experiences with unsolicited negative opinions from a**holes. I just ignore them. Life is too short. Thanks for all you do. - Mike, Tumble Creek Woodshop, Cora, Wyoming
Mike, very good points brother. I couldn't agree more!
You're absolutely right!
I have been woodworking for 13 years. I have hand carved pieces with a chisels and been told by other people that I CNCed them when I didn't. In my experience the people that care about whether you carved it by hand, aren't willing to pay the price for things that are carved by hand and aren't willing to believe you did it anyways. Some people need to be contrary and wrong.
I am new to CNCing. I see it as a useful tool to expand on my abilities as a wood worker and I am really enjoying learning about all of the technical things such as a down cutting bit not having fuzzies on the top surface and to not use them to bore holes unless I want to start a fire.
I love all of this new knowledge. I appreciate every bit of what you are doing.
Thank you.
WikiSnapper, I couldn't agree with you more my friend. At the end of the day there will always be neighsayers no matter what you're doing. But, there will also be the people who can truly appreciate the work and effort that goes into your craft. It's important to know your worth brother. Happy cncing my friend!
"THANK YOU!!!" What you are talking about touches on so many fields. I have been in the IT field for over 20 years and have come across so many people who have this attitude that they are better than everyone else and will trash anyone they feel doesn't meet their level of skill. Many don't give new developers, devops, testers, or anyone else a chance. I try to encourage others in things I am skilled at. I don't give advice unless you ask, just like you mentioned, with the exception of when I am training someone, and even then I would never act like an a-hole and constantly berate them. When I watch a video I always look to see what or how I can do something better than I can right now, and there are a lot of areas where that helps me.
Mrklean, you are so welcome my friend. Glad to hear you and I see eye to eye on this one.
I just finished and delivered my first job. During design, I reached out to a few friends and one of them gave me a good piece of advice. “You’re the artist.” I don’t think I will ever unhear those 3 words.
Tim, couldnt agree more brother. You are the artist!
I also got my CNC machine due to watching and listening to you!
I know I’m creative, but I can’t draw or build a piece of furniture by hand, but I can create amazing things with a CNC machine!
Thanks Garrett!!
Chris, congrats brother! I am excited to see what you create with your machine.
Garrett .. Sounds like those making unhelpful comments are jealous.. I love your channel and it has helped me on my CNC journey in the UK. Keep them coming
Mike
Gunship, I'm so happy to hear my channel has helped you brother. Keep up the good work yourself!
Good Job Garrett, No matter what you do there is always people that want to put you down or degrade what you did. If you take the lady rotate 90 degrees to the left the union is on top and she is flying leading the way. Good job you the man.
Wayne, very good points brother. I couldn't agree more!
My grandmother had a saying; Misery loves company! As I have mentioned in public and private, you and your company are a true asset to the CNC hobby. Thanks for all that you do!
Brad, you are so right on this one brother! Thanks for sharing your perspective.
Garrett, You are a great resource and you say things the way you feel which is very refreshing. Anyone making anything is awesome no matter how developed their skills are. If someone is trying to make then they are great in my book!!! There is an old saying that my grandmother used to tell me." If you can't say something good then keep your comments to yourself.
Great video!!!!
Michael, thank you brother. I appreciate the support!
I have a plasma table but modified it (on my own) to run a router. I watch your channel because you keep it REAL. I lost my mother to cancer, divorced, drank and got in trouble with the law all at the same time. My machine gave me a purpose, knowledge and a way to express my creativity. I love what I do. It gave me fulfillment. It changed my life...
Tony, your machine must be a BEAST brother! I'm so happy to hear that CNC has helped you so much in your life my friend. Keep working hard!
Thank You Garrett for making this video. Our church was celebrating 50 years of getting a new roof, I decided to engrave on my CNC machine some of the old roof tiles which I salvaged.
I had the name of the church correct but was told that the cross I engraved was wrong. The church is in Scotland and we have many different interpretations of the cross.
According to the so called expert the cross was wrong but in my eyes it was correct.
Until I saw your video I was going to throw them all in the skip, now they are going to be handed in on the day of the anniversary .
Thank you again for giving the confidence to go ahead .
please stay safe.
Bill M8-)
Scotland
BillMartin, that is one heck of a story my friend. That sounds like an amazing project. I am excited for you to show your church what you made!
Awesome carve. All I know is that no matter what side it’s on, someone is going to say it’s the wrong side. Well done! Thanks for all your videos. You have literally taught me everything I know about cnc work. Keep up the great work! 👍
Jason, thank you brother! Keep up the good work yourself!
Great rant. Also a true woodworker, artist, musician....creater will use any and every tool at their disposal to bring their ideas to life.
John, true that my friend. Couldn't agree more!
Bravo, unless you have something nice to say, keep it to yourself...its a great carve! Local kids bring projects by my house when they see me in the garage bulding something and they are so proud of their project and as rough as it is, i always build them up and tell them what a great job they did...their smiles are priceless!
1960 fusion, I couldn't agree more brother. Glad you like this carve.
Damn Garrett!! I couldn’t agree with you more!!! There are many who just feel it’s their duty to burst other people’s bubbles…Thanks for bringing up this subject…it happens way too often… I just block them so I don’t have to deal with their negativity more than once!
Onefinity, thank you brother! Nobody needs negativity like that in their life.
Been on a CNC for a year now and never looked back. It is an amazing journey and Garrett's videos helped so much. That flag reminds me of going to a friends house on a hot day by the pool and one of the ladies stood up, grabbed a flag towel to dry off and run in the house. I happened to snap a pic with the phone and carve it the next day. Take a fun day with friends and transfer the memory to CNC.
Jason, I'm so glad to hear you have found CNC and never looked back brother! Keep working hard.
I'm with you Garrett. I see those posts, roll my eyes and scroll past. It frustrates me too, because I like many, like woodworking, but never manage to get everything just right. But with my cnc, I am now cutting stuff that looks awesome and has tight tolerances and I am so stoked! I enjoy creating and am proud with what I'm accomplishing
Adam, I couldn't agree more brother. The CNC brings things to a whole new level for a lot of people.
I was in the Marines for 6 years. While a young PFC at Camp Pendleton I was ordered to the color guard for about 2 months. If you are on a Marine color guard, then yes, there are very specific rules about how to handle a flag. If you're making a piece of art like this, we all know where your heart and mind are. It's a very cool piece that evokes patriotism in a unique way. BTW- The view is from behind. So the girl in the carve is displaying the flag correctly. Some people are just wankers.
Matt, very good points brother. I couldn't agree more!
The more and more I watch you, I get more and more impressed. Those are very good points on how people wake up and choose violence for the day, it must be miserable, I just Block them.
I seen something similar where a creator in a shop was using his phone as his monitor on self mode, when you do that the image is inverted. And people missed the whole video just to get on him about his flag looked to be hung wrong in the background. Some called him everything but a woodworker.
Your teaching style works for me, the way you engage just clicks with my brain and I have learned more real world skills in this, from you than any other.
The first machine I ever seen I ran for superflow. I was one of three in the cabinet shop in 2000 ish and we got a 4x8 shopsabre with vacuum and it blew me away, at that time I was just getting a home computer, so it was so cool to have the job of running it. I always wanted my own machine and been a kitchen carpenter for 30 years I knew my way around a shop, but they were unreachable.
I had a career ending injury 18 months ago and said hell with it and bought one, used recovery time to learn it and I feel that stupid machine saved my ass from self destructive loathing.
I came across your videos while in the hospital and I truly was inspired to get that machine as soon as i could.
Thanks, for the you tube university education...really thanks.
Garrett I have never chimed in but now I will!!! I just received my Phantom CNC SCV 44 today!!! You are absolutely correct! People are Dicks!!! I have worked my ass off (as an old man) to get up to speed to make things on my laser, 3D printer and now my second CNC. All of it was tough! Nothing in this world is easy. All I can say is we all feel the same. Celebrate our accomplishments and move forward (Positively) one step at a time!! Thank you for all of your knowledge that you share!!!!!
David, congrats on your new CNC brother! I am excited to see that bad boy rip and what you create.
I’ll add another “Thank You” to you Garrett. I picked up a Longmill about 6 months ago, all because of you and this channel. The level of detail and attention you have given throughout all your videos have helped countless people go from absolutely no knowledge to a beginner/intermediate level with ease. Keep doing what you are doing and leave other’s negativity in the rear view mirror.
After seeing so many of your videos, learning so many different skill sets , the thing I have come to understand… You are only limited by your own creativity!
William, you are so welcome my friend. Congrats on your new Longmill! I am excited to see what you create with your machine!
You are a good guy, man. That was one of the most righteous and proper rants about creativity -- let alone the CNC version of it -- that I've ever heard. I was a woodshop brat in high school, and I'm an amateur musician (bass player). My biggest project was to build a bass in woodshop, like back in 1981. I didn't finish it, but I came *really* close.
Having just the knowledge that I was taught by my superb woodshop instructor, I *almost* succeeded in building an instrument I've been playing now for over 40 years.
Everything you say in that video is spot-on, and also has an analogy in music. I've become pretty okay as a bassist, but I'm not a professional and probably lack certain skills required to be one (for example, having memorized a ton of jazz standards, or being a better sight-reader).
And I totally GET when I'm seeing/hearing someone with those skills! I'm not so dumb that I don't recognize a Master. So, like you we're saying about master wood-workers: "I don't need to be told that I'm not at your level, or that I did something wrong, or screwed something up." I'm very well aware of that, because something inspired me, way back when, to learn how to play the instrument, even if I haven't risen to a certain level, and it was those same Masters!
A CNC machine is an instrument. It's a device we use to express our creativity. I myself may not be the most accomplished, and I always welcome constructive criticism.
But you're so right. Some people seem to exist mainly to tear other people down, to tell them that they messed up, that they *suck* at this, and so on.
What a bleak life that must be! Patrolling Facebook to critique someone else's carve?
(And by the way, I totally don't get the criticism of your beautiful carve. To me, I was like: Well, if he just flips it 90 degrees to the left, from my perspective, everything is right and proper. Stars and Bars are in the right place, etc. I would not have dreamed of that criticism in a million years!)
Also, incidentally, your "Luthier's Bit Set" is pretty darned inspired, and I will be purchasing one soon! You totally got to the essence of what's required to carve those thick bodies!
Thomas, wow I'm humbled by all the kind words my friend. Thank you for all of your support brother.
Spot on Garrett!
Walter, glad you liked this one brother.
Right ON , Garrett
Ted, thank you brother!
Hi Garret, I’m from Indonesia, I have learn a Lot, got a lot of knowledge about CNC from you… thank you..
Those who ever has negative thought will always be negative, just ignore them….
👍👍
Ridzeki, keep working hard and learning everything you can brother!
I’d like to give you a huge thank you from Miami, FL!!! I remember sending you a picture of my first inlay and your kind words meant a lot since I basically learned EVERYTHING from watching your videos! You really have a big impact in this industry and your help/support is mainly what keeps me coming back and wanting to learn more from you.
You will always come across jerks in the world, who are completely oblivious that they are unpleasant to interact with. It’s hard to filter them out right away some times.
Sorry you had to make a video about this. Buy once again, THANK YOU FOR BEING HOW YOU ARE WITH YOUR CNC FAMILY!
Nicholas, you are so welcome. I am so happy to hear my videos have helped you so much.
Thanks for the video Garrett!!!
Cody, you are so welcome my friend.
Best video you've done on non tech stuff Garret. Very well said on all counts. No bull and just the right amount of swearing, in the correct context. You even use "pissed off" correctly unlike most Americans in my experience. Keep it up mate. I wouldn't have noticed the carve, but I'm not American. I'd have just hung it in my bathroom if I was fussed about it. I'ts narrow with a huge mirror on the one side. At least when your doing what you do in the bathroom and looking in the mirror, it'll be the right way round. I even bought a clock that goes backwards so I can see the time properly while looking in the mirror 😆
Robots, thank you brother. Glad you enjoyed this one!
boy houdy it's all about self gratification what makes you feel good didn't even notice that about the stars on the other side didn't care the ability to do it on the CNC is wow factor for me .good job that why i'm a subscriber the fact that you so generous to share your knowledge .thanks so much garrett
Mark, I couldn't agree more about this one brother! You are so welcome for all the videos brother. Keep up the hard work!
keep doing what your doing. The thing I like the most about CNC is learning how to do something new. Different ways to setup a job etc
Joe, thank you brother. I will keep working hard to delver videos that help you early in your CNC journey.
Hey Garrett I'm a qualified cabinet maker, a supervisor at an international super yacht building company in Cape Town, South Africa. Been a cabinet maker for over 40 yrs but learning about and building my own CNC is way above the experience I've had through all these years, love your work input and valuable insight, that's a gem for me. All the best and best regards, from Chesney.
Chesney, I am so happy to hear that my videos have been helping you get into CNC. Keep working hard brother!
very easy made DIY own cnc machine and lot cheapen than all sell lot worst machines, etc onefinity machine, worst machine ewery normal men can build 4x cheapen same or better machine easy simple job, i has build my own machine less than 1000$ but have lot better than onefinity or many other brands machine who cost 4-5000$ only idiot pay 6000$ totally small and worst cnc machine when same machine can make DIY less than 1000$ sure,
Hi Garrett, I caught the tail end of the live carve which ìs absolutely beautiful, still want to watch the full video (hopefully over weekend ). Ilove the fact that you understand we all have varied skill levels and knowledge not just with cnc but with everything in life. A wise man told me many years ago always be your own man, stay honest and true to yourself, and be optomistic, praise good things because at the end of the day we all end up the same if we are lucky (if you were a refuse collector or a managing director) Retired.. Please keep up the brilliant work. Also anybody who critisises and thinks they are perfect have never done anything, we all screw up from time to time because we are human and we pick ourselves up and try again.. Take care and never let the barstewards grind you down..
Paul, thanks for reaching out brother. I couldn't agree more about what you said. Keep up the good work yourself brother!
I agree totally Garrett...I am a complete newcomer to woodworking and CNC. I built my own Workbee Z1+ relatively recently and when I put some pictures up I got comments from a few nasty people that my machine was shit and that I should have gone for another make! Also told that the things I had made were "badly done"...!!! None of this is helpful to a newcomer, their comments are unwanted and show a lack of respect to others...I feel sorry for these pathetic specimens of hmanity...I really had to "rein-in" what I wanted to say to them...😉🤣🤣Take care and thanks for all YOUR help!
Ivan, keep working hard brother. I am sure your projects were amazing!
All I can say is that is a beautiful carve. And yes there are two sides to everything, so when she is facing you the flag is orientated correctly! Keep up the good work Garrett.
Gayle, thank you brother! I'm glad you enjoyed this video.
Garrett I totally agree with you, I had a similar experience at craft fair. The person next to me made beautiful children's furniture, and I had made Gulider swings for adults and children. He said I don't understand why they are buying that crap when what I made is way better. I just laughed and ignored him, in my heart I was sad that he was so selfish an self-centered. I asked God to show him kindness. The next day he packed up and left never seen him again, no one ever seen him at any other shows or sale.
Paul, thanks for sharing your perspective brother. I'm glad to hear that gave you a bit of perspective on other woodworkers too.
Garrett you are an awesome person and an excellent instructor. You are the one that got me interested in cnc . This video is so true and what I live by every day. Thanks for all you do.
GaryJaDick, you are so welcome my friend.
Excellent video. I’m handicapped and if it wasn’t for my CNC I wouldn’t be able to do what I really enjoy. I still have to cut the wood, glue it up and ensure the accuracy of my work.
Southern, I am so happy to hear you can still do CNC despite your handicap. Keep working hard my friend!
I honestly can say this is one of my favorite address. When individuals make complaints on the Facebook page, usually they haven't posted anything nor are they proficient in computers.
Talley, I couldn't agree more brother. Thanks for sharing!
I call these people troll’s and no matter where you go they show up. Kudos to you for calling them out, so much negativity in the world thanks for standing up to them. By the way, love your bits!!
Kristopher, you are so right brother! Thanks for sharing your perspective.
110% agree with this video. When people ask me if an item is hand made, my canned answer is this, "Yes it is hand made... on the CNC."
Michael, good comeback brother! I like that one.
Mike, this is a great answer. One thing I wonder...when they ask and if the answer fits their desire, will they buy it? Might be a good come back question...
Garrett after watching your video turn it counter clockwise 90 degree and everything makes sense, just saying and keep up the positive approach!
Steve, you couldn't be more correct on this one brother! Keep up the hard work yourself.
Had a chance to watch the video! Very well said! You always do a great job with all of your content. And there's always going to be haters out there. Full of themselves assholes, narcissist bastards that are out to make everyone else as miserable as they are. They are the ones who always have an opinion, they know best and will tell you how damn good they are, and are quick to pick out fault, but when it comes down to it they've either NEVER done it themselves OR they have an excuse why they don't do it. See it all the time. Strong work on the piece, Garrett. It really is a nice carve.
Todd, thank you brother. I couldn't agree more!
Amen
I once did a last supper carving, spent weeks modifying the program, multiple carvings to get it right
I am proud of the final result!
Amen Again on your words of encouragement!
John, it sounds like an amazing carve!
Appreciate this video Garrett! #thisonesforthehaters
Nick, thanks brother! Glad you enjoyed the video.
RIGHT ON BROTHER!!!
Boer, glad you liked this one brother!
I find it funny that before you said what that guy's retort was to the negative lady, that was the first thing that went through my head. I love sewing too and yes, I use a machine. I also use a CNC for woodworking.
Glory, isn't that a great story? Glad to hear you and I see eye to eye on this one! Happy CNCing.
Amen Brother! I agree with your message 100% and I'm glad you made the video.
user-sb5ow4bk1l, glad to hear it brother. Happy CNCing.
What a great video, I have to agree with you. Yes, it is great to watch a project take shape, the effort we all put in makes it hand designed and hand finished. Tell the doubters to take a hike and ignore them. Garrett you are a true inspiration to so many and keep going brother.
Markr, I couldn't agree more brother. Keep up the hard work yourself!
Nice carve brother, I feel sorry for the haters, jealousy is one of their main drives. Keep creating my friend it's a wonderful thing. 👌
Hippy, very true my friend. I couldnt agree more!
In the first place. It's all in how you look at it. It looks great to me
Richard, I couldn't agree more brother!
Agree 100% your channel helped me a lot enjoyed your rant
William, right on brother. Glad you and I agree on this one.
I get this from time to time, and you're right, the best way to deal with them is to "not deal with them".
Mike, very true my friend. Food for thought next time this happens.
100% agreed 🤝
Falcon, thank you brother. Glad you enjoyed the video.
First of all I'm sorry about my poor Inglish but it's good to give an advice or notificate any body about a mistake they done but with love not with trying to distroy them. I can see even best car driver is not the one who made the car he's driving, or the tailor did'nt made the needle he's yosing. Every one using a ( tool ) to make some thing and I see a stunning tings coming out of CNC. The best work you are doing is helpig others and doing a BIG GREAT JOB of that remember that, and I see what you're doing is helpfull not for me only but fo all people. God bless you and keep on doing you're GREAT GRET helpfull videos.
Mohammad, I couldnt agree more my friend. Im so happy to hear you enjoyed this video and I am glad to hear my other videos have helped you in the past as well.
Sure they helped me alott. I'm not sure if I can say that there are people all ther concern is to pull your joy out of you so dont let them injoy that, so keep on keeping on. it's hard to me to see such a jentl man like you upset. @@IDCWoodcraft
Well said and God Bless you.
Thank you Fred! //ut n=eeded to be said
Great job, and great video Garrett!
Dave, glad you liked this one brother!
Well said. Totally agree 💯.
Mike, thank you brother!
Garrett,
I am a Retired Brigadier General after 35 years of service in the Army National Guard. I just wanted to say that the product you produced is beautiful and is also correct. In my opinion the designer of the file you purchased designed it the correct way. The A-hole that was complaining needs to google "us flag rules and etiquette" again and study them. Some of the simple rules that he does not understand are.
1. The first thing you need to do is determine which direction the flag is facing. It this case my opinion would be that the flag is facing the same direction that she is . The rule is that the flag is facing the direction from which it is most viewed. Anytime you hang a flag under a mail box it is going to appear to be correct or incorrect based on direction the viewer is traveling.
2. If you are hanging a flag on a room wall in a building it is simple to determine that it is most viewed from the interior of the room. Once that is decided the rule states that it should be hung so that if you turned it clockwise the union would be on top. That would mean that the union should be on your left and if you turned it clockwise it would be on top. If the union was on your right and you turned it clockwise it would be a Distress Signal. In this case, my opinion is, that if he had walked around her and viewed her from the front he would had realized that you and the designer were right and he was wrong.
I totally agree with your suggestion. Just block those kind of folks and keep on going.
Your Personal Car Consultant, thank you for your service my friend. I couldn't agree more with what you said.
The Army wears the flag on the right shoulder. The Navy wears a flag on the left shoulder. Each of them is facing differently, opposite sides. I think you're absolutely right on, she looks fantastic and I don't see a problem with the way the flag is, it's perfect. keep up the good work yo.
Trent, that is a good point about the flags on uniforms. Keep up the good work yourself my friend!
Garrett I agree with you 100% I think they are jealous
Resorter, you could be right on that one brother!
It looks really cool. Who cares about its missing a star or it’s missing a stripe. Your doing a lot in giving advice, teaching. My hat if off for you my friend
Stanley, thanks brother I appreciate the support!
Right on 'brother', you hit the nail square on the head!
PnG, thank you brother. Glad you liked this one.
Spot on Garrett! Those comments piss me off also! Especially as I am a new cnc brother. Keep up the great video's!
Doug, thank you brother. I will keep up the videos!
Great project
Bret, thanks brother!
So true…..great video
Miguel, thanks brother!
Hi Garrett, If you take a United States flag, and turn it vertically. And hold it on your back, then look at it from the back. Sure looks correct to me. So maybe that person should look closer. Always have fun watching your channel. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge in cnc.
Todd, very good points brother. I couldn't agree more!
Right on, Brother! Love your point of view and use of earthy language to drive home your point. You are the most real person on youTube and why you have the loyal following you do. CNC is available to anyone who desires to express himself or herself in a positive and rewarding way. It matters little, if at all, what others may think of your end result. Some just don't understand that its all in the "doing" regardless of the perceived quality (by others) of the end result. Cheer on! Keep up the good work my friend.
very true brother. I couldn't agree more! CNC is an amazing art that can make such an impact on a large group of people.
As a Combat Veteran I don't see anything wrong with the Flag. I have been on so many Flag details where I had to raise it in the morning and the end of the day. Like you said if she turned around it would be on the right side. But they're Trolls out there The only soul mission is to Piss people off.
I have learned a long time ago like you said just ignore them. I have learned a lot from your channel. Don't let A$$hole raise your Blood pressure young man. Keep the training going. Army Strong
Soldierskilk, very good points brother. I couldn't agree more! Thank you for your service.
We’re always our own worst critic.
I don’t need any help with criticism of my work!
My wife gets those comments about her using a computerized long arm quilting machine!
Thanks for sharing this, Garrett!
Merry Christmas!
David, I couldn't agree more my friend we absolutely are our own worst critics! Merry Christmas brother!
Well said, thank you!
Medusasnoggin, thanks for the support my friend! Happy cutting!
The flag is not wrong! Nice carve. I even went and bought the file.
gguilliams, glad you enjoyed the carve!
Took me 50 years to finally find a job where I’m having fun creating stuff and utilizing my industrial design degree!!
scottdennis6658, right on brother! Welcome to the wonderful world of CNC.
Well said Garrett, I am in my first few months of learning everything CNC and have joined several groups including yours, I have noticed this even in "beginners" groups that should be all about encouragement where someone posts something for the very first time and it gets shot down within minutes by some keyboard warrior for no reason other than trying to make someone look small, they just dont seem to realise it also makes them look like arseholes, I was always taught that "if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing" and that's a great motto to live by
Fred, very true brother. I couldn't agree more about this.
First of all; the Union is not on the wrong side. If the the flag was hanging on a flag pole, the Union would be on the top left corner. Since in this case the flag is hanging with the stripes toward the ground, the Union placement is still correct. The flag is simply rotated 90 degrees. I’d be proud of that job had I done it.
Douglas, very true my friend. I couldn't agree more.
I just ran across your channel and yes, I subscribed. You are awesome sir. I love old machinist because I are one LOL. In my 38 year machinist career I always encouraged people and do not listen to the nay sayers. I look forward to also learning from you videos sir. Love it.
Robert, welcome aboard brother! Wow that's quite a long time machining, I'm sure you could teach me a thing or two in the workshop my friend! I'm looking forward to seeing your creations brother!
Some people are just rude. I get your point, and I agree. Before a product comes off my CNC machine it has gone through concept, design, and set-up. This to me is the artistic side. I'll be 70 in July, I don't have time to do things from scratch, or by hand, ergo the CNC. Perfection is overrated.
Gary, very good points my friend. I really couldn't agree more.
The model in the plaque is facing away from the observer. If she were facing you, holding the flag in the same manner, the union would be in the "correct" orientation. I have to say your plaque is correct.
PS: Where did you buy the design from? I want to make one.
Dean, very good points brother! I really agree with your perspective on this one. As for the file, I got it off etsy brother!
Good video!
Oldtech, thank you brother! Glad you enjoyed this one.
right. on garret and so true
RAcreativewoodworks, glad you liked this one brother!
Great work Garrett, those carvings look awesome!!
Nwnimbleman, glad you enjoyed the carve brother!
Garrett , great looking project. I love your channel and have learned so much. I bought aset of your bits and the customer service provided in the ordering and shipping was something we just don't see from most companies nowadays. I can't wait to get a break from my job and the weather to use them. I like the way you are real in your videos and the knowledge that you are willing to share. Thank you Sir. Now with that being said - your dust pan on the wall is 2" too high. See, anyone can have an opinion that does matter. 😂 Again thanks for all you do.
Txm35A2, I am so happy to hear my channel has been helping you so much brother! Happy CNCing and I am excited to see where your journey takes you.
AMEN !!!!
Lee, thank you brother!
Your work is great, your videos are awesome and your help is greatly appreciated.We need more like you.
Thank You for helping newbies like me.
Kevin, you are so welcome my friend!
Well said Garrett, and by the way the flag code really only applies to official flags. Your project looks great
Clyde, very good point brother! Glad you like the project.
oh my you just talked about something that would be cool to do with that one carving do the other side of it so there would be a front and back
I'm actually considering that!
Well said. You are so inspiring. The flag lady project is beautiful.
Crazy, thank you my friend. Glad you enjoyed this project!
Tried to hit the like button more than once...well said.
Reece, thank you brother.
Turn the carving 90 degrees to the left. There. The union is in the upper left corner. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 4:04
Michael, I couldn't agree more!
Garret, Love your channel and so does over 48,000 other people!
Trent, thank you brother. Glad you enjoy the channel!
it is awesome
crztrn1, glad to hear you liked this one brother!
OK,OK,OK... We all have had this happen and it sucks. Well done.
It just kills me that some people are offended by everything and bitch about it. Like they are they only ones who can be offended.
Depending on how its done, sometimes it helps when people point out a problem, but mostly it hurts. May not be their intention but many times the mouth is engaged before the brain. Yes, me too 😞 Keep up the good work Garrett.
By the way that 30° Vbit you make solved my script text problem. Nice and Crisp. Well done.
Doug
Douglas, very true brother. I couldn't agree more!
well said
Jim, thank you brother. Glad you enjoyed the video.
If you look in the rear view mirror the union is always on the wrong side.
Southern, I couldn't agree more about this one brother!
Garrett to start with It's an absolute sweet job, nicely done, BUT I also get it where rules 'n regulations is coming from. Both sides of an argument can be correct at the same time yet fail to see that! That said it's a beautiful job!
Pablo, thanks for sharing your perspective on that one brother. Glad you liked this project.
Right on brother. That pisses me off too. I have been making wooden flags for many years and I have met with this argument. Many times. The flag code does not apply to wall art. The flag code applies to official American flags. I am brand new with the CNC machine. After watching your videos, I ordered the MK two 48 x 30. I have assembled it on a dedicated bench, made the spoil board and surfaced it. I have yet to do a project on it, but I’m excited about what I’ve already done. thank you for your videos.
otaydad1, glad you liked this one brother! Thanks for sharing your perspective.
I have to say, flags are two sided! You were right, she would be moving in a direction that had the flag moving correctly. Nice work, great cut, and righteous attitude.
Greg, I completely agree my friend. Glad you enjoyed this carve!
DAMM STRAIGHT! YOU THE MAN! COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER! OPINIONS ARE LIKE A.H. EVERYONE HAS ONE. AS LONG AS I LIKE WHAT I DID HELL WITH THOSE WHOM ARE JEALOUS OF YOUR HAPPINESS.
Glenn, very true my friend. I couldn't agree more.
Awesome rant Bro - telling it like it is. Maybe it could could be put to music (LOL) - 'Garrett the Rapper.' I won't even bother to read an entire negative comment / post. The first negative word I read, or the first feeling / impression I get that the comment / post is heading South - it is gone and the commenter / poster is blocked.
Alps, glad you enjoyed this one brother!
Garrett if you notice the stars ARE on the right side of the flag the girl in the carving is holding the flag at the end and the stripes are running vertical and not horizontal. That woman who commented on this is an idiot in my book.
Dwight, very true brother. I couldn't agree with you more.
