This video is so helpful! I would want a frame this size so the cloth can fit well and have some left over. I will build my next frame and consider the cloth size as well as portability and being able to attach it to a table as well
Dude your channel is awesome. I watched your first video, now this one. I am in to watch them all now. I just discovered this hobby & got the same paisley orange tufting gun you have with the rad toggle switch or aviation style switch on it, based on your recommendation. I am excited to try a new thing. I got some hardware to make a 36x36 frame + an 80x120 sheet of tufting cloth so I figure I can make six 40x40 pieces that should give me the extra couple of inches on every side to do 6 rugs to learn on. So far, I think you are the authority on this subject, nothing against other channels, they are just nowhere near as tightly made & explanatory as yours - you are the rug dude to watch, for sure. Subbed & belled.
That’s hard question to answers. Stretching the fabric helps prevent tears when your tufting. If your still tufting and the yarn is getting in there without tear, your good
Thanks for your help but i have i question ,after I stretched the fabric The piece of cloth loosens when i start tufting what is the issue in that case and how can i fix it ?

You deserve more subs. A lot of people just talk and yap then pretty much do things for quantity but this video is quality and to the point
Thanks

HI! Thanks for the advice I have a question, if the carpet isn't really tight like these in your video, is that a problem or could it still be fine?

Could be your tufting cloth. If your usings monks cloth, it generally stretches a lot
@@justruginitWhat type of cloth would you reccommebd using?
Did you use a certain brand of carpet tacks? I used a blue brand from Lowe’s but I don’t feel like it grabs like yours
I got mine from Home Depot because it’s closer to me. No real reason other than that. Just make sure the tacks are pointed outward
@@justruginit okay thanks. I think my bottom row faces up. I appreciate the feedback. I love your Tiktok lives
@@SewMeKrisB here to help, and thank you, love doing the lives, it so much fun
I put nails around the whole frame
Mines only staying at the top but keeps coming off bottom an sides 😭😭
You might have the tack strip pointed the wrong way. They are slightly angled to hold
where do you get your cloth?
I sell the exact stuff on my website.
do you plan to restock your tuft guns on your site?
Yes! They should be arriving today! Hopefully. Lol. This last restock has been super painful on the admin side
Back in stock! They go quick
i’m just now seeing this! going now!! THANKS!!!
Do the carpet tacs ever get dull?
Not yet, but i stretch the fabric pretty tight and I have noticed a few of the tacks broken off. Might be time to replace a few of the strips
