    The very first thing I noticed is your voice speed. So easy to understand! I struggle with tutorials where a person talks and clicks like they're in a hurry. It's hard to follow what they're doing. I thank you so much for that and the awesome tutorial in itself.

I appreciate your time and expertise in this field and will def be looking for other videos by you to learn more. Thank you!!!!

    Thanks so much for demonstrating how to make larger than mat stencils! I’ve been working on a wood round and have had to redo the stencil several times. Finally got it right after watching this video a couple of times. I was slicing and keeping the original words instead of the square. No wonder I had so much difficulty getting the squares to match. This makes so much sense. Grateful there are people like you willing to share.

    I love this video. It's my go-to whenever I want to make a larger-than-mat project. But I have to say, every time Chris feeds in the position of X and Y, it is an automatic flashback to math class in junior high when we all complained that we would NEVER need to plot x and y coordinates after we graduate 😆

  • @dandmpug
    @dandmpug 4 роки тому +2

    Wow, these are great instructions! I never would've figured this out by myself, so thank you! One little thing I noticed, though, is that when you weeded the design, you didn't leave the center of the "f" where it loops over itself. I've done that before, too, and had to go searching in my trash for the tiny piece! LOL

    @kerchalmier3013 Рік тому

    Thank you for the excellent tutorial. Two questions. Wouldn't it be possible to rotate your design 90 degrees, and use a 12 x 24 mat to make longer individual stencils? Also, couldn't that piece of your design that made up part #7 been parked on one of the stencil squares with lots of open area at the bottom? In essense, you would get that piece cut from one of your original squares. Again, thank you very much for the tutorial!

    Hi, I just have to say I have my maker nearly a year and was about to give up as feel very overwhelmed with other tutorials, and then i came across YOU, thank you , you are excellent at explaining and easy to listen too. Just one question, i have been challanged to make a over door out side stencil for a friend but i am struggling with what size my fonts should be, the board size she wants is 60'wide by 16' high, and needs to be seen by her customers . Could you please advise , thank you so much

    • @DailyDoseofDIY
      @DailyDoseofDIY  3 роки тому

      For SLICE they would need to be ungrouped first to do individual letters (And SLice you can only do 2 layers at a time, so if it's a full word or saying you'd need to weld it first).

  • @AliciaEastLyme
    @AliciaEastLyme 2 роки тому

    Thanks for showing the tiling technique. one note: if you overlapped your squares even a tiny bit when slicing you wouldn't have a line between them that paint can leak through. also you could have cut the bottom squares as 11.5 x 4 instead of wasting all the bottom template paper

    • @AliciaEastLyme
      @AliciaEastLyme 2 роки тому

    What vinyl would you use instead of the stencil material?

    • @DailyDoseofDIY
      @DailyDoseofDIY  3 роки тому

      Removable vinyl. Just don't use permanent, it's so sticky it will rip off your base paint. (tho that does leave a pretty cool distressed look!)
