congratz on graduating Dominic and a new house with a new set up woot woot ,,WD40 nooooooooooo get sewing machine oil bro be green ,its howling that oil based wd 40 all the guns are made in china ,all of them ,but i do hope u have bought a new 1 ,:)
The idea of tufting rugs have been tickling my mind for a long time, but I never knew where to start. Now I know exactly what supplies tools and other things I'd have to buy to start out! Thanks fo this elaborate tour man! You helped so much!
WD-40 is not necessarily lubricant. It is a water displacement. So it moves the water away to keep rust from setting up. The best thing you could use his either sewing machine oil or white lithium grease, which also comes in a spray can. The same area is WD-40 sold
The best Tufting gun oil I’ve used is gun oil. Like the kind for firearms…Rem oil, Hoppes 9, Lucas. Also just like…a few drops of car motor oil works well too. Don’t complicate it too much…as long as it’s lubricant meant for lots of mechanical friction, and doesn’t have any detergents, you’re good to go.
Sewing machine oil is not recommended as its qualities are for sewing machine parts to move in a way that is more sticky. You want lubricant for the gun, so knitting machine oil is better. However, I think the DW40 is good and probably easier to find. Clean the fluff out thoroughly after each use before oiling. Spatula.
Hello going to do my first rug tonight thankyou for the video.... I have seen people say Sewing oil/ lubricant after the wd40 because the said the wd40 isnt a lubricant... I dunno just an idea :) have a nice evening :)
Great video, really helpful so thank you! I would love for you to show us your process of making a face rug. Like when you are putting the picture into photoshop and adobe and getting it to where you only have 6 colors. I have been wanting to make a face rug, but am not sure how to work with adobe and Photoshop. Keep up the good work!
Great video. I was having trouble with ways to do backing and I liked the way you explained it. Can you do a video on line work. Where to start and finish?
Thank you for watching! I understand that a lot of the URLs I pasted are not currently working, I tried to use a URL shortener so that the description could fit it, I will fix that soon!
Awesome video man! I may have missed it but do you know where ya got those foam blocks that your frame pushes against? I saw you added them from the video and it looks like a great idea
Hello! I can’t wait to start tufting :) newbie here but your videos are informative and i really enjoy watching them, but when you purchase your fabric from i make rugs does it take a while for them to ship it out? did you have any issues with them? Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this insightful videos. I live in Nigeria and would want to venture into doing things mostly based on wools. Do you know maybe a site or an online store I could buy those(wools) in wholesale, preferably red heart yarns. Please anyone with an idea can please let me know, thank you
How many mm the yarn has to be? I have seen some RUclipsrs using 4mm and others 6mm which one is the beneficial for making profit too? Sorry if I missed those info in the vid
Based on the tutorial on how to build the stand. You have it sideways. The side pieces should be in top and bottom and your top and bottom pieces should be on the side.

how many yards of yarn could you spend on a rug?
very helpful thankyou
Bro what kinda fabric are you using for the structure
Awesome video man! I may have missed it but do you know where ya got those foam blocks that your frame pushes against? I saw you added them from the video and it looks like a great idea
I actually ordered them on Amazon to use as soundproof for my room and then ended up realizing they would work great for protecting the wall

Re: lubricants: I have been told that WD40 will gunk up over time, but that Innox wont.
Does anyone elce have thoughts/ experience with this ??
How many mm the yarn has to be? I have seen some RUclipsrs using 4mm and others 6mm which one is the beneficial for making profit too? Sorry if I missed those info in the vid
I typically use 4 mm because it is easier to find for me personally
@@dwrugs Thank you brother! Keep up the amazing work. I love your transparency when it comes to share your knowledge.
what type of yarn do u use ? wool or acrylic ?
I generally use acrylic yarn
Hey bro any recommendations where ca i get a software to transfer the photo . Thank you
The software I use to create the rug images is Adobe Illustrator
Very nice video brother. Made a few commissions so far after only a month or 2 and a lot thanks to you
That’s great to hear! Congrats!
Based on the tutorial on how to build the stand. You have it sideways. The side pieces should be in top and bottom and your top and bottom pieces should be on the side.
Should be 43” wood on the top and bottom. 40” on the sides.
Thanks for the heads up, I’m planning on building a new one soon, this was the first one I ever built and it was done very poorly 😂
what is the size of the yarn 4,5/5 ?
4
ur awesome
3 in one oil its a machine oil
That gas pack
