That's awesome. That is why I made them in the first place. With the new CNC I hope to do the same with the VCarve Desktop and UGS. New chapter coming. lol Thank you very much.
Not sure if you heard. But minwax have changed their colors. Tru blue and crimson are no longer available. Also you can get solid or semitransparent. Most are saying the solid goes on more like paint, and the semitransparent shows the burned grain better.
I love the project and will be interesting in making this myself, but what I noticed that I could really use at the moment are those clamps that you made up for panel glue ups. Any chance you might be able to show those off and a quick how to video. Thanks for all you do. This Army Vet appreciates it.
Yes, I have shown how to make this jig in a previous video. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/Ekzobz6CGGU/видео.html Thank you very much and thank you for your service.
Have always enjoyed your work. And super generous of your to share your Xcarve file. Had a question about that - what is the smallest you attempted to make your union field and carve in stars? Thanks for all that you do.
It is drying uneven. That can be a problem and is why I usually use a 2x4 for the flags and rip them down. This 1x12 was purchased and cut the same day and I did not have the cupping problem.
Hey, what size bit are you using to carve your stars? I am having some difficulty getting mine carved. I am attempting with a 90 degree V-bit 3/8 diameter. The router plunges the initial cut, but then raises and jogs over the work material. Thanks!
On the vast majority of the projects that I carve they are shallow. For the stars I want a sharp point at the bottom. The .2 does that. If you want a flat bottom then set the depth at .1.
@@PawPawsWorkShop im guessing you like them better for your flags and I may have to go pick one up for mine, usually use a brad nailer. Your videos are very helpful.
Love this instructional just have the others in your library. I saw that you glued and stapled the back braces. Did you glue up each board in seem as well? Thank you and keep up the great work.
Thank you for your comments. As I stated in the video an average person without a cnc can create a stencil and paint the stars. It is a very easy process and many people do this everyday.
It's tragic and very upsetting what happened. However, there are many fine officers in the country who put their life on the line each and every day for all of us. My son is one of them. This flag will be going to one of these officers.
@@PawPawsWorkShop Any alteration of the flag is a desicration of it. Sure, there are fine police officers, but they don't get to alter the flag to suit them.
Thanks for sharing the stars on the project page. It’s one of the nicest unions I made.
Awesome! I'm glad that it worked well for you.
Love the videos. I go back from time to time to your old videos to help me with my xcarve. Thanks

you make everything look so easy.. well done again
Thank you very much for the compliment.
Nice work as always
Thank you very much
Great looking flag!

The small union is approximately 7.5x8" Thank you very much.
The problem I am having with 1x12 is the cupping, what say you? Thanks.

Could you add the link to the acrylics that you use. Thanks
I do not have a specific brand. I look for the big bottles at Hobby Lobby, Michael's, or WalMart. The cheap stuff works great for the flags.
Paw Paw how did you make your stop block for the miter saw
Yes, I did make that stop block several years ago.
@@PawPawsWorkShop Can you put that building a Stop Block on a up coming show that would be a good thing. and Love your Shows
Yes, I had never thought of doing that. I have had that stop block for so many years now I guess I just take it for granted.

What depth do you set your stars at in easel? And where can I find that star file on inventables?
The link to the file is in the description. The depth of the stars is approximately .2" I looked at the preview to set the depth.
I noticed on this file when i open it that the depth is set to .2 Is that the correct depth? I've seen in the past you said no more than .12?
On the vast majority of the projects that I carve they are shallow. For the stars I want a sharp point at the bottom. The .2 does that. If you want a flat bottom then set the depth at .1.
@@PawPawsWorkShop Thank you!
Do you like the staples better than the brad nails?
I like both depending on what project that I am working on. The staples have a better holding power.

I have in the past but it is not necessary.
I love your work. How long did it take you to do this?
Thank you, it takes about two hours.
I found that when people resize the image to fit what they are fitting in the program they will not resize the whole drawing.
Yes, that certainly can happen
The union I’m pretty sure . Should be 14 13/16” x 10.5”.
That very well may be, however, I have chosen to alter the ratios slightly to make my flags with a little easier measurements.
You are correct. At least should have kept it closer than 13” (14.5” or 15” ) It looks disproportionate. There are flag ratios for a reason.
@@bhutch216 shut up karen
beautiful, all i need now is $2500 for a cnc machine!
You can do this with a much smaller cnc machine for less money. It is possible. Pick and chose your tools wisely.
How much do you charge for your flag?
The basic flag is $100 plus shipping
☺️👍👍👍👌❤❤❤
Thank you
Was really interested till I saw how the stars are made, average guy will not be able to do this.

You should do a confederate flag next.
No, I do not think that would be of interest for my subscribers
