    I love how you start with feet and inches for the size of the plywood, then quickly changed for centimeters for the distance between nails hahaha Thank you for the tutorial, that's the best one I found, even 3 years later! I'll try one now hope it will end up as good as yours!

    Hello Jack. I did some string art when I was about 5 years old in school, I am now about to turn 71. I am really wanting to do some string art but don't have a clue about how to achieve the look I would like. I love the art Deco era and have just decorated my living room in touches of it. It was all about shapes then. Arches and curves but also boxes and lines. I just don't have a clue how to go about this. Can you help. You have been the only tutorial that really caught my eye. Also, well done with that piece as it looks stunning. Shirley from the UK.

    My son had some of this art on his apartment wall. I took several photos hoping I could get into this one day. It somehow reminds me of the heavens in a near death experience. I am her now and I believe you are my teacher.
    I could do without the music. I've had to mute and follow the cc directions.

    When I do string art I usually go from one nail at one side to the other side then I loop around the next nail on the same side before I go to the second nail at the first side. By doing it that way you will have more "parallel" lines which enhances the illusion giving it a more 3d effect.

    Would it be easier to use the ruler to find the 14th, 21st, 28th, etc nails since each point was a cm apart? I love this video. It helps to draw/paint them also. Although I’m thinking I might like to paint the background and use string art to intensify the shapes. Thanks so much, Jack.

    • @JackWood25
      @JackWood25  3 роки тому +2

      Yes, it would be much easier to use a ruler to find all the marks. I didn't even think about that until I read your comment. I also really like your idea of painting the background then adding string. That might be one of my future videos! Thanks for your support.

      I generally purchase them from Home Depot. Although, I don’t know if this store is in your area. You really only need 1 inch, or 2.5 cm long picture hanging nails. For a pack of 200, it should cost you more than $5.

    You say that there are 109 marks needed in the diagonal. Do you count both of the corners as a mark? I did it exactly like you sad, but from corner to corner I do have 110 marks.

    • @JackWood25
      @JackWood25  3 роки тому +1

      It’s okay if you have 110 marks. I’ve built this a few time before with more than 109 marks. Just keep following my video but when you add the last color, you’ll have one more nail to pass and you color may overlap at the middle of the diagonal line. If this is still confusing to you, I’m here to help.

    • @JackWood25

    • @JackWood25
      @JackWood25  3 роки тому

      So sorry to be responding to your question this late but if you're making this project for yourself, the thickness of the thread is up to you. You can decide. If you want the thickness that I used, the thread is roughly .0163" or .414 mm. if you're wondering the number of the thread, I'm not sure what it is but I have a link in the description to the thread that I used for this project.

    What size nails do you need and how thick is the thread?

    • @JackWood25
      @JackWood25  3 роки тому

      It doesn't matter what size nails you use but I used 3/4 inch nails and the string is about 0.125 millimeters. I have a link in the description if you want to purchase the thread I used.

    • @rayrogers3597
      @rayrogers3597 3 роки тому

      I can find the nails pretty easily but as I live in Germany they sometimes have different descriptions for the thread and wool than the US. It sounds like its really thin like you’d use to sew something like clothing or is it thicker? Could the thread fade?

    • @rayrogers3597
      @rayrogers3597 3 роки тому

      I’d love to try this but not sure if I understood which nails to where:(. Maybe if i play it back on slow.

    • @JackWood25
      @JackWood25  3 роки тому

      Yes the thread is very thin and it's used for sewing but you can also use thicker thread if you want. It's up to you to decide. The thread will most likely fade only if it is in direct sun light for multiple hours a day for many weeks. If you build one and display it inside, you should be fine. If you have any other questions, I'll gladly answer them.

      I’m not completely sure what are the best nails. I’ve made multiple string art projects and I’ve found that 1 inch picture hanging nails work really well.

    Can you tell me the math how you figured out the nail count?
    I bet this is not a trail and error.
    Please let me know .
