Today I am going to show you how I made this wooden American waving flag out of a couple 2x6x10 pine boards. If you are interested in purchasing one, email me at toolreviewzone@gmail.com for details
Check out Kutzall grinder disks for very safe, and smooth carving. You can find them on Amazon. You can also look for Graff grinder disks, which are a bit less expensive than the Kutzall, or if you have the wallet for it, Arbortech. Of these 3, the Kutzall disks are my favorite.
Couple tips for ya: I used a vinyl sticker i made on my vinyl cutter instead of a stiff stencil so that it conforms to the curves and looks a lot more natural. Then take a sand blaster and blast the stars out after you stain the entire square. You get the same look, takes 10 minutes to get a nice depth and the outline is spot on. Also, i used black acrylic paint and used it like a stain and wiped it off right away. Results are amazing. Great video by the way.
Love it! Cant wait to do a waving flag for my collection! I think if you wiped the stain and did a second coat it would have done better, he sounds like james franco lol loved his video I'm trying to clean the house I put this on and got distracted, and that poly thick is amazing!
Amazing work you have definitely motivated me to attempt this. It also gives me a reason to buy more tools haha. I see you said Amazon for the flag stencil, was there a specific size you got for that. I just want to make sure everything is proportional. Thank you in advance.
I would price them about around $250 plus shipping then go from there. Believe it or not, shipping costs is not bad using USPS, and material is super cheap. I had a ton of orders at first in my area, they everyone started copying me and selling them too. I could still get $175 easy per flag, but the time it took to build was my only issue and couldn't keep up with the demand
It looks awesome brother man you should make one donated to veterans organization I think they would love it cuz I do take care of your wife and kids and yourself man check out my videos if you can thank you
Hey Texan. I will probably never make these this thick again, so for this one in the video you probably looking at $250 shipping included. If interested, shot me an email at toolreviewzone@gmail.com
Tool Review Zone You mentioned not going as thick. Would you be able to make one out of 1 x 6 stock and have enough material to still put waves in? Loved the video and would like to try this.
I actually made one with 1" stock. It's a bit this and the waves won't be as prominent, but can be done. Check out the video I did called (wood carving tool for beginners) I did it again and think it came out better
I really like your approach and your video....BUT, I have never seen an American flag that is monochrome black and white. What the.....?? Why not red, white and blue?!? I think it would have looked far better with the actual colors.
@@ToolReviewZone --Well, yes, I have seen people make black and white flags before. What I meant was I have never seen an actual American flag that is black and white. Seems like quite a bit of work....I just think that it would have looked better using the actual colors, to make it look like the flag we see every day. You did a great job....just, to me, an odd choice of color. Just saying.
