Try clamping the wood pieces together with out gluing. Then carve while clamped. Paint or stain individual slats. Then glue together. Reduces taping time and messy paint/stain bleed
Great idea 👍🏻
Well done, My Friend! And it’s borderless…just like the US!😳🤣🤣
Thank you and i cant argue with that! 🙏🏼🇺🇸😂
Lmao
Hahahaha! So true
Max, I’m not sure if I have seen a more beautiful piece of work!! You have the gift and the talent to turn wood into masterpieces!!
Thanks a lot man I appreciate it!!🙏🏼🙏🏼
Absolutely awesome!!!!
Love your work what would you charge for something like this
That's smart as anything
As a Navy chaplain on terminal leave after serving for 25 years, this is awesome!!
Thank you for the feedback Sir and thank you even more for your service to this country!!🙏🏼🇺🇸
As always, great job Max. Wavy flags are one of the hardest to do. You make it look easy. The edges puts the flag a step higher than others I've seen. Great touch. Your shading with the torch added a great touch as well. Something that works for me to keep mistakes and paint bleed to a minimum: When you have the first stripes taped (in this you taped the white first), after you stained the red stripes and it dries, you can spray on one or two light coats of seal. Once that dries, change up the taping (take off the tape on the white stripes, put tape on red strips) then stain the white stripes. If any stain bleeds, it shouldn't stain over the red before you can wipe it off (seal coat should stop the stain). This method works even better for staining stars. Blue stain for union, one or two coats of seal, then carve out the stars. Start staining stars white. Any white that gets on the blue cleans up quick and easy with a wipe of a rag.
Thanks a lot I appreciate it and thats a really good idea, thank you for sharing!
Wow! Sounds like excellent advice. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Yes Sir, Im 69 yrs with lots of woodworking experience. Always looking for faster ways to create worthful and meaningful Americana crafts. Thank you for sharing the ways that you have learned by trial and era that will give most of us the opportunity to create an almost unflawed art piece the first go around. In wish that i could make the stars go faster. However, I must be dilegent and consider the soldiers who have given their all for this flag. thank you,
This wood flag technique is the best I have ever seen! I believe I have watched some of your other videos. This is definitely the one I want to try and make. Thanks for including every detail and method to create this. You answered every question I could think of. Well done video! Most of all, thanks for sharing! 👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸
Nice job ! People don't realize just how much time and work goes into something like this, I've been a carpenter and wood worker since 1971,
sale price for this should be in the at least $75-$120 dollar range, good craftsmanship there young man. 👍
I have seen flags like these, not as nice go for over $200 and they sold out of them at every show.
At a minimum. This takes a long time. 1 per day? $30 in wood, glue, stain, sealer, saw blade wear and tear, electricity, tape etc. so unless you're cool with $10/hr. At least $200. Plus, it takes time to get this good
I thought you would get the wavy look by using Home Depot’s 2x4s😂
No kidding 😂
Omg so funny, I need to go through so many to get a straight one
😂😂😂
Hey … I made my first flag today using your technique of angling the corners. It looks great! Thank you!
@@mentorJu thats awesome!! No problem! 😁
😳 That flag is freaking AMAZING! What an awesome result, and a great tutorial. Well done all the way around. 👍🏼
Thanks a lot man i really appreciate it!! 🙏🏼
Nice quality job, and a lot of detailed comments.
@@retiredtom1654 thank you very much!
I'm Canadian, and I LOVE it!!! How are you not a millionaire selling those by the truckload?! Great work
Beautiful, love that sculptured wood look. Great job & explanations.
Thank you!
This is definitely my favorite flag, great job Max! Love it! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
I've seen a lot of these done. Finally, someone does it in my opinion correctly.. flags are thin, so i like how you did the edges to make it look thin..
Thank you very much i appreciate the feedback!!
Saw a lot of videos 'bout carving waving flags, but that's great! Very awsome work!
I'm from germany, so greetings from here.
Thank you very much! Greetings from America! 🇺🇸
You did such a beautiful job on your flag! It is the small touches that make it so remarkable! God Bless you & the U.S.A.
Thank you so much i really appreciate the feedback! 🙏🏼 God Bless!!
This flag is beautiful and I really appreciate how you have shown step by step how to do this! I am excited to try to make one myself!!
Thank you very much! Im sure it will turn out great!! 😁
I'm excited to build this flag. I have my boards cut down to one inch. Had a mishap with blade that's stopping me a little bit. You do make it look easy. Handcarving the stars will be a challenge
Thanks for your posts.
Heck yea thats awesome! Just take your time and itll turn out great! No problem! Thanks for sharing and best of luck 😎
I've done pretty good selling flags over the past few years. I did a thin edge one like this a few years ago. I always considered it my flag cause it took 3 years to sell. I had it listed for 100 more than my normal flags. A few friends told me it was cool but not necessarily worth the extra money. Now that it's gone I miss it cause I really liked it.
It's worth the money
How was it not worth the extra money when it takes a lot more work to make one? I guess your friends never made one.
Max F - very nice! I have also made many for sale, folks really love them. The modified Betsy Ross (13 stars in a circle with '1776' in the center of the stars) also looks very nice. One suggestion though.... The waves in a flag always originate in the upper corner of the hoist side (that is the upper corner of the blue field) and move towards the lower right. Never from the fly corner towards the lower left. Just has to do with where the flag is always fixed...the upper grommet on the hoist side. Cheers, John
❤️🇺🇸💯
I love it! And everything it stands for!
Thank you!! 🙏🏼😁🇺🇸

Absolutely beautiful work. No more needs said.
Thank you very much! 🙏🏼
Really nice job, educational and entertaining. 😊
Thank you very much!! 🙏🏼😎
Very nice result. It appears to be adaptable to a Betsy Ross flag, or an 1812 (15 stars, 15 stripes) flag.
You did a really nice job. I make mine almost the same way. Keep up the good work.
I thought this was done with a CNC. Good on you. Great project.
Your way is the best way of making one that I have seen. Nicely done and a great video too!
Thanky you very much!! 🙏🏼
That flag rocks
@casesimmons2645 thank you very much!! 🙏🏼
Beautiful! 🇺🇸
@@lisamoore4711 thank you!!
Very nice work, i will try it on my own next vecation. 👍
You should panit/stain the back sides on the edges too, that would make a perfekt look.
For the glueing proces use baking paper as table cover. The most wood glues dont stick to it and you can often reuse the paper, because the glue will fall of, if it is totaly dry. Just do a dry run befor using a new gluetye for the first time.
Keep on the good work!
Exactly. Parchment paper works great.
Think this is my favorite flag you have done. That grinding disc while putting out a ton of dust really works well.
I'm with you on using the frog tape on these, I don't have a lot of issues with it bleeding the stain like the blue tape does.
Thanks a lot Jim and thank you for the feedback!
Very well done!!!
@woody1320 thank you very much!! 🙏🏼😁
You have been a great inspiration for all of my work. Awesome job as always. Back to the lumber yard I go.
Thanks a lot Ryan! That makes me really happy to hear 😎
Looks amazing… Great job. Thanks for sharing… 👌👌👌
Thanks a lot Raymond!!🙏🏼
Beautiful man! Well done.
Absolutely Awesome!
that's great! def on my list of things to try :)
Thank you! You really should its a fun project 😁
The way you did the edge by trimming out the back side made a really nice effect.
Turn our flag into art. Makes me want one. That thing is cool
Thanks a lot man I appreciate it!
Wow, that’s really beautiful. Amazing workmanship 🇺🇸
Thank you very much!!🙏🏼🇺🇸
Hola Max, es un gusto ver un trabajo tan bien hecho, se agradece tu esfuerzo por mostrarnos paso a paso como elaboraste esa bonita bandera. Saludos desde el norte de México.
Fantastic I am looking at getting back into woodworking, this would be a fun project
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!
Thank you!!
Hint I saw on another video. If you have a couple of bleeds, torch them darker and they "disappear"...
You can use wax paper under your glue ups to prevent the work sticking to the bench. NICE JOB my friend!!!!
That's cool man. You should do other flags like Ireland, Scotland and so on. God bless
Beautiful......I think I would have just sprayed the stars white.
Very nice I might have to try this. I bet you can also carve those waves in with the table saw. You would need to make a little jig to hold it at the angle to ride against the fence. Then you clamp a strait edge (Make shift fence) at a 30 to 45 degree angle of the table saw blade. You raise the blade a 3/16 to 1/4 in above the table of saw and push the wood across the blade. You are basically using the saw blade as a large shaper. Then just raise the blade a bit more and make another pass. It sounds way more dangerous than it is. LOL Izzy swan ha a few videos on it and one he even makes a really nice jig that is far more advance than I am describing. But I have done it myself several times for projects that need coves. My dad was a wood worker cabinet maker and he shown me this trick 30 plus years ago. Izzy just took it to the next level. But you might play with it a little maybe it will work. Link below for Izzy's video. But really nice work. I have made a lot of nice things with 2x4's. It is cheap lumber. You just need to be a bit picky when buying them.

That looks awesome. I definitely want to try that. Great job
On the Punisher one I was going tosay I like how you can see the wood in the back.
great video as always, i made your mini flag build and use it when we go camping as our site sign ive made 3 in total i gifted 2 of them both to veterans and they were really appreciative of it thanks again for sharing your knowledge and talent
Great job! Only thing I would have done different would be to use a sanding flap disk on my grinder to smooth most of it before I used a palm sander. but the flag looks great. Just curious, What kind of price would you ask for a flag like that?
cool idea dude.. I like it.
@@yemarican thanks dude!
Very nice a lot more work than it looks. 🇺🇸
It's Beautiful!
Nice work looks awesome
Thank you!
Amazing job.
Thank you!
Did you also paint the stars? Thanks for the video!
My friend Jim did one of those years ago they come out awesome
Pretty ballin Mister
absolutely beautiful job!!!! Loved the video and subscribed!
glad to see it's not just another cnc vid. looks amazing bud great job
Very cool. I have the wood glued up and ordered the carving disk and stencils
If you had not put on your safety shield, I would have not subscribed or continued watching your video. Good job. We are inspired to try this ourselves. Thanks.
You do such a good job. The flag is amazing.
Thank you very much Brian I appreciate it! 🙏🏼
That looks amazing thanks for sharing your techniques you make it look so easy
Great video Thanks
Gorgeous Old Glory!
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Thank you!!
That is a cool flag. Nice work. I don't have the patience for doing those stars like you did. I'd have just painted them.
Great job man. I must say you have the patience of Soloman.
🎯Awesome! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!!
Very nice work!!! I will definitely be making these!! Thank you!!👍🇺🇲

10:00 - This is the point where I'd be thinking, "You know, a Betsy Ross 13-star flag would look good!"
That was superb
Great video and awesome flag!
Gorgeous ❤️
