Вставка

- In this video I'm building a 7ft folding backdrop arch, I'm using a 1/2 inch birch plywood, which is perfect for these types of projects as it's strong but at the same time light.

You are a genius i love it
You are AMAZING!!!! 🤩
Beautiful 😍 you make it look simple and with every detail thank you 🙏
I'm trying to be as open as possible :)
If I dont have tracks for my saw, will the backdrop still be seamless from the front ?
If im thinking of making it about 6.5ft overall, is the thickness of 8” still ok ?
Great video! May I ask what the measurements are of the legs?
Love these designs. Do you have any plans? Also, have you ever tried putting wallpaper on the plywood for a design? We’re trying that out this summer and are using Canva to make some designs. Thoughts?
Thank you, I haven't created any plans yet, still have to learn that software. As for wallpapers, I know that people that I build it for put decals and different kind of wallpapers on a plywood, than taking it off pretty easy and reuse these backdrops for multiple event decorations 👍
What size plywood do you use, 1/2” or 3/4”?
And the bendable plywood what thickness is it?
Thank you for this! It’s so helpful, may I ask what kind of wood you used here? I’m making a backdrop for a client and she wants the natural wood look so I’m wondering what type of wood looks best without paint or stain
Thank you, I'm using Birch plywood, but the look in this video is rare with birch, in most cases it's a lot more pale and flat. I would suggest you to get oak plywood or walnut 👍 that would have an amazing natural look. The problem is that the regular Constraction stores don't usually carry that type of plywood, so you would need to find a local hardwood dealer
@@woodshopbox thank you very much! I’ll look into where I can find some, appreciate you
where do you get the walls for the support in standing ? do you make those too? I didn't see where you made them in the video?
I make the stand for the back as well, I'll include it in the video next time 👍
How did you get your backdrops to stand up without it being wobbly to the touch. Especially these 6 and 7ft walls?
Just make sure the back support is sturdy enough, and it's going to stand just fine 👍
Hello! What is the thickness of the board you are using in the video?
I use 1/2 inch plywood most of the time
