Nice

Do you think that oramask would work just using hand held dremel to carve out a stencil since I don’t have a CNC?

What was the name of the second bit, the straight one? Thank You! Never mind it was in your discription.

When tramming, do you skim the waste board AFTER you tram on the glass?

How long did the project take to make?

How long did the project take to make?

one question, why can't you just do the entire carve and tape off between each painted section vs stopping to do the painting as you go?

informative video, but defiantly confirmed my decision to go Vcarve which is easier and more powerful.

love the video. as far as beefing up the xrail, Do you thing inserting a piece of maple inside of the rail would stiffen it enough.

Finally, someone using Easel in a professional capacity. 😆

Just the video I needed!!! thank you so much...

What shim kit did you use?

Do you know, that the Amana v-bit costs here in my country ? 69.93 Euro's thats 75.36 Dollars In America its $27.72 I'd call that "GRIFTING" Oh and by the way the 1/8th bit is 2.7 times the American price. So thanks very much But I go to aliexpress or some other cheap brand I can buy 50 of those

Great in depth tutorial video!! I Recently purchased the Shapeoko 5 Pro 4x4 (great machine & I absolutely love it btw) & have been wondering how everyone keeps getting different colors on their signs/projects & knew nothing about vinyl & using vinyl. Truly thank you for showing this! ** Love the sign 🪧 too btw ** 👍

OCD kicking in... is the bottom of the "E" missing? Still looks great though.... Great tutorial. Delivers the point.

thanks for sharing

Can you send a link to the PNG file please

Awesome

Does that z axis upgrade have ball screws?

Wait, you did all that. The clamps, the shims, just to adjust 1/4 of a 64th in 12in? On a 30 in work area. What in the world are you carving out of wood? 4 1000ths? That's serious ocd man. 😂 Im no machinist, but my dad was a millwright. I have his starret indicators. But I hardly know how to use them. You only squared the Z. I use a pencil in the collect and the 3,4,5 method to square my X axis. Can you show us how to square the X with your tool and indicator? Or try to explain it here. Im looking for an easier and more reliable way to square my machine. Reading a tape is too subjective and is too prone to error. Especially measuring the corners of a work area that has no place to secure the tape end and spans over 54in. Thanks. Good content

On your comments about the Amana V bits, you made a statement that you only get one use out of the insert. Are you saying that after every V carve, you have to replace the V bit blade insert? Do they really go dull that fast or is there more to this statement? Thanks, keep up the good informational videos.

That is awesome!

looks great, how do you set Z?

Which comes first Leveling the spoilboard or tramming?

iF YOU COULD RUN IT FASTER??????? you would of!!!!!!!! why does everyone fib!!! about that ??? Or why even bring it out??? JUST DO IT! MEANWHILE STAY @ feedrate!!!! and there's nothing wrong running it 70 FR IF THATS ALL YOUR hobbyist machine can do?? instead of tearing through everything!!!!I strongly say run your machine at the rate that it best moves!!? HA!!!

Just found this video and what a great tutorial for me. You explain it so well and is exactly what I needed. You included the bits, depths and all that I was looking for. Well done on a great video and will definately subscribe.

Your title states “How to” implying that anyone can do this. Well genius not everyone has a 100 thousand dollar wood cutter. So in reality you can’t hand make anything.

I pass a heat gun over the oramask and press it in with a credit card or roller before making my cut. Seems to provide better adhesion to the wood.

No more videos?? These are neat.

Wow. This seems as though you figured all this out on your own. That is impressive. While not quite a professional production process, you are making a product that is absolutely professional quality. Kudos to you.

I love that keep on going ❤ it looks good

Nice technique, sign looks awesome. Music is too loud compared to your voice, but still a good video!

BEAUTIFUL!

Next time hit the whiskey with the torch first before smoking, it comes out better.

Reallly cool design! Love it

awesome!

Nice. Trump 2024

Looks like I've got my work cut out for me this weekend. Thanks for the info! I have been dreading making that adjustment in the Y axis, didn't think about shimming the whole sled there.

What does this do exactly?

You could have held off on all the painting until the profile being done.

💪💪💪💪🥰🥰🥰

Yup beautiful 🤩

Thanks Tim. I have been looking for something like this since I have essential tremors and can not paint and keep it close.

Good job Tim

Great vid! I think unless you are spraying the piece, you could get away with a single pass for everything needing paint

Best decision we made. You're going to love it. It's awesome using a machine that actually works like we all hoped the Xcarve would have, but just didn't. The good thing is the xcarve was a good first machine. Good luck friend!

QUESTION: When staining/painting before carving... Does the stain/paint gunk up the bit?

Ve Carving

It’s way Easier and faster to just staying it red, carve the whole thing out when hand painting it lol. This is how to do it if you were spraying it…..

That should be Phillies red paint! Sorry but the Phillies just won game 4! World Series here we come! The sign is awesome. Trying to learn about routers and lasers and I appreciate the time and talent of all these TH-cam contributors. Wish us luck😊
