@@diydallasHI I love the flag I am going to try and make this myself. What is the exact acrylic paint you used and what countersink drillbit did you buy. Sorry just new to woodworking and not sure if there is a certain size needed. Thank you very much!
Made one, working on another. Only change I made was a light coat of white stain on the white areas (bare wood on yours). Painted the field white, added stars then sprayed the blue. Great video for instruction, wasn’t sure if above my paygrade (am no carpenter). And my bench top band saw didn’t like cutting the length 2x4 so clamped on one end and used jig saw, worked fine. Thanks again.
Good video, like the template for the waves. Your flag dimensions are off just a little though - the stripes should be 36 inches long not 40. Length of US flag is 1.9 x Height, height is 13 x stripe width, so using 2x4 for your stripes the actual stripe width is 1.5 inches, therefore Length = 1.5 in x 13 x 1.9 = 37.05. The waves in the flag would further shorten the length a little so cut length of stripes only need to be 36 inches long. The size of the Union Height = 7 x 1.5 in = 10.5, Union Length = 0.76 x Flag Height (19.5 in) = 14.8 in. Amazon has the Union stencil in a 10.5 in x 14.8 in size.
I'm late to the game, but I want to thank you for the video. I've watched multiple waving flag build videos, and this is by far the best way I've seen to do this. Great work.
Dude. Definitely the best waving wooden flag I’ve ever seen. Awesome work! 🇺🇸🦅😎 Using the Cricut to make the vinyl stars was brilliant, that really is _the best_ way to do the Union. Nailed it, dude.
Absolutely awesome. I'm not a woodworker or don't have any tools but I would pay to go to a class to be able to make this. Great job, best I've seen so far.
I made this as a belated Christmas present. It is beautiful! I did notice that even though I screwed the pieces together, there was some accordion style bending. I went ahead and used a couple thin pieces of wood to reinforce it from the back so there was no movement to the pieces. I will hang some heavy duty sawtooth hangers on those pieces of wood to finish up. Thanks so much for the idea and instructions.
I built a jig to help me keep it flat when I screwed it together. Jig = plywood 25” X 42” plus a 42” 2x2 on top side and 23” 2x2 on left side (make sure it is square) This allows me to butt each board next to each other
Wow! Probably not in my skill level but certainly not in my patience level ("five hours later" and that was just for the easy sanding part!). Satisfying to watch with such a beautiful result!
That is phenomenal craftsmanship!!! This is a wood project I am going to attempt!!!! Thank you so much for sharing.. Merry Christmas from my family to yours
Would be interesting to see an inverse flag from each cutaways. If you use 2x6 you can get 2 flags from the boards. The offcut would be your second flag.
watched your video and a few others. Yours is definitely the best and you do a great job. The repeating music is annoying, but your flag and craftsmanship is by far superior!!
I gotta hand it to you that's a lot more work than the regular flat flag and if you were to sell would have to be a lot more i think it's one of the best I've seen.
NICELY done sir. One question. When cutting the 2x4’s into stripes, can you use the secondary pieces to make a second flag? I’m talking about how you essentially cut each 2x4 in half. I’m wondering if the remnant pieces will assemble for a second flag.
I saw another video where the TH-camr used the offcuts to make a second flag. I think the key is to make sure the wave template goes down the center of the 2 by 4
I personally like the music - GREAT job and don't listen to the few haters - they have nothing better to do. I'm working out in my mind the best way to do the star field, but I will probably end up following you route. Again - GREAT JOB!
My absolute favorite wavy flag tutorial! If I understand this correctly, if you cut each of the 40in 2x4s along the stencil line, you would get 2 flags worth of stripes right?
DIY great video! I appreciate the perfect mix of "how to" without having to watch a 60 minute video. Do you sell these? If so, what is the price? Have you ever put a frame on one of these bad boys?
I appreciate it! I do sell these. I’m working on my website right now, and it will hopefully be up soon. I have been selling them for $175. I made 2 with frames, and surprising people like them better without.
@@diydallas Thanks so much for all the info. I’d love to make one but I don’t have a printer like that. How much do they cost? Thanks Bud! Love how you did this! It’s Awesome! 🤝
I run my boards thru a planer but still have space at times in between the stripes, even using an extra screw to secure them along with the glue, do you not get or mind the lines between the stripes. I’ve made a lot of them but still have to go back and fill the gaps at times, usually with glue, wiping off the excess. Thanks
I think this is the best looking wavy flag I have seen. The waves look very natural.
Thank you!

Thanks for the video. Best one I've seen so far. Really like the jig you made to make it easy to make the waves on the flag.
Fantastic build and very creative technique for the waves! Well done.
Thank you!

Quite tedious, but beautiful!
Thanks for sharing!
Great idea cascading the curve at inch intervals for a repeatable design - much faster than flap sanding from the squared stock.
Doug, absolutely!
Nicest most realistic looking waving wood flag in TH-cam! Nice job, learned a lot!
Much appreciated!
Nice thank you for all of this!! Hook up with the stencil and the flag template. Thank you for an awesome job!! Appreciate you!
Thank you very much for the video and the pattern! Beautiful flag.
I'm late to the game, but I want to thank you for the video. I've watched multiple waving flag build videos, and this is by far the best way I've seen to do this. Great work.
Sir I have got to admit of all the processes in making these flags that have seen you have got it down to a science,
Thank you!

I'm with you concerning the stars. I wish that I had a cricut.
Great video. Thanks.
Very nice work. Gonna have to try that. Thanks for the lesson.
Absolutely awesome. I'm not a woodworker or don't have any tools but I would pay to go to a class to be able to make this. Great job, best I've seen so far.
Fantastic! Just Fantastic! Great work!
Very nicely done. I envy you having a place to do that kind of work.
Nice work.
On my list.
Thanks for the reminder.
Agreed. Best method I've seen. Just beautiful
Beautiful craftsmanship !!!!
Like the song lol . Relaxing who is that . Great job on the flag !
Thank you! I just make loop some samples together as far as background music. Most people hate it. It is a bit much 😂

Yea, I have definitely had that happen to me as well. It's tough finding straight lumber, which doesn't help at all!
I built a jig to help me keep it flat when I screwed it together.
Jig = plywood 25” X 42” plus a 42” 2x2 on top side and 23” 2x2 on left side (make sure it is square)

@@BigDaadee that is actually a great idea
VERY nice! My only complaint is that the video is a bit dark. Totally love the build and I am looking forward to trying it myself!
This is a cinematic masterpiece
Awesome tutorial! I’m going to give it a try. Thanks!
Wow! Probably not in my skill level but certainly not in my patience level ("five hours later" and that was just for the easy sanding part!).
Satisfying to watch with such a beautiful result!
Thank You!
Thank you, I will attempt with my son
Great video. I particularly liked your method of putting the stars in place👍
I printed out the template and it is only 41” long it seems to me yours is longer that that?
He cut his boards to 40", so they are the same size.
Thank you very much have been wanting to make a wave flag
Beautiful ! Positively Beautiful !
Nice giving the stencils ! I subbed and a like!
Just made it and came out great. Thanks for the video and template.
Great to hear!
Damn that is sweet.
Brainstorming how I'm gonna do this with hand tools.
Haha! With a little elbow grease, it should be possible!
Beautiful, I’m going to try this 😅
That is phenomenal craftsmanship!!! This is a wood project I am going to attempt!!!! Thank you so much for sharing..
Merry Christmas from my family to yours
Outstanding , good job .
That is AWESOME thank you for sharing. Once I get my shop finished this is going to be one of the projects that I make.
Thank you for doing this and sharing it with us!!
Of course!!
I would say great job Very very nice.
👍👍👍🇺🇸... Pride for Perfection

There is another guy on here can't think of the name that did that gets 2 flags out 1 set of boards
Love this video and really like the music!!
very nice, thanks for sharing
Looks good.
Fire 🔥 job bro!!!! 💪🏾 ❤ 💯

Great work. Exactly what I was looking for.
Trying to convince myself that I can do this. 😂. Really cool flag!
You got this! Practice makes perfect.
@@diydallas thank you! Just curious, what would be the best way to hang this flag?
Awesome, thanks !
This is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this video 👍 Best Flag I ever seen!!.. Definitely made me a subscriber
Is the spacing on your template 1 inch apart? Also what's the size of the union you put on your flags and where can I buy those? Thank you
Awesome video. What are the dimensions of the union?
With the Kutzall Shaping Disk, which grit did you find works best for this?
I went with the medium disk. I haven't tried any of the others.
I love this THANK YOU
Man this really looks great. Thanks for sharing the video great idea

This is 🔥 great job brother
That's Awesome!
So flipping amazing!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It's Monday morning ..this is just what I needed to motivate me ..great video..keep up the good work ..
Thank you for watching!
I absolutely love this, thank you for sharing ❤️! #American🇺🇸
This turned out so nice!
Thank you! They are really fun to make.
@@diydallas where can i source the vinyl star sticker please desperate to find one
DIY great video! I appreciate the perfect mix of "how to" without having to watch a 60 minute video.

Very cool
You are the best!!!! Like ur utensil, what are the dimensions? Almighty!!!!
Best flag ever
Great Job
Very Nice! Can I ask what kinda Vinyl Mach and or Model do you use? Thanks. And does it require a monthly subscription?
And what size it the Union? Thanks Again.
I used a Cricut Explore 2 to cut the vinyl. I think design space does have a monthly fee, but it isn't outrageous.
@@jamesbarlowjr.3762 14 3/4 x 10 1/2
@@diydallas Thanks so much for all the info. I’d love to make one but I don’t have a printer like that. How much do they cost? Thanks Bud! Love how you did this! It’s Awesome! 🤝
What is the size of the union template ,like measurements
14 3/4” X 10 1/2”
Beautiful work
Thank you very much!
How long was the stencil that you used
Awesome job brother ! 🇺🇸🤙🏼
This is fantastic
On second piece marked. Did you line up with 2 inch mark? Thank you. Best flag on youtube youtube
Where do you get your stars from, one of the nicest flags I've seen.
By far the nicest 👍
@diy dallas for the last steipe on top did u take your stencil 1 step the other way?
I run my boards thru a planer but still have space at times in between the stripes, even using an extra screw to secure them along with the glue, do you not get or mind the lines between the stripes. I’ve made a lot of them but still have to go back and fill the gaps at times, usually with glue, wiping off the excess. Thanks
beautiful! Can you please help me understand the union process more? How exactly do you get the stars to "tattoo" the piece like that? Thanks
Excellent job Dallas why not brads instead of screws to save time
Brads would definitely be quicker. I've just had problems with warped 2x4's, so I used screws to really pull them together to prevent gaps.
Beautiful work❤😊
Beautiful
Thank you
This is badass!
Could another be made with the off-cuts I wonder?
Absolutely!
You know when you cut the wavy lines what do you do with the cut off part do you get two flags out of the timber
Very nice amazing video man 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
Looks awesome what does something like that go for
I usually sell them for $200 in my area.
thats awesome
