You are a very good sign maker and a good teacher!!!
Thank you for the kind words and for watching, Eric
This sign is beautiful, can't wait to see the final! The voice over is great, almost like closed captions, lol.
Thank you Cheryl. We're learning, slowly but surely....
Eric -- that was hysterical regarding the batteries, your reaction was classic, I laughed right along with you...
Most important was the content of using the water-based sealer. I used the oil based and man it took some time to sand it off. Thanks for the video.
Yep, we're like keystone cops comedy team over here. Glad you guys stick with us. Glad I could help. The water based sands off easier for sure.
Great video Eric and Vicki. I enjoyed this a lot. Finishing is always hard and tend to do ok. I made a sign and brushed a coat and got the drips on the back. Didn't realize you can cut them off. That is good to know for next time.
You're welcome buddy, glad to help
Hi Eric, I had the same problem as Woodchuck Signs. I used oil base sanding sealer and waited 2 days for it to dry. It still gummed up my sandpaper, so I had to rip the finish back down and start all over again. This screw up took 2 more days, so I wasted a lot of time and labor using oil base. Your sign looked great and the small bit of comedy with the silent film made this video a bit humorous and educational. Great job!
Happy to help. Thank you for watching Jay!!!
Beautiful sign
Thank you👍👍
Classic blooper I think you missed your calling as a silent film star! LOL
LOL.... Yea we're real pros at this stuff.....NOT
Thanks Eric, Just what I am looking for.. Here in Pa. there is tons of pine boards.. Still searching for cedar fencing..
Glad to help. Thank you for watching
glad i watched this had a problem with ink smearing, sprayed sealer problem gone, thanks for the hint
Glad I could help Jim. Thank you for watching, Eric
Good times! Also Great recovery with the voice over Eric! Being a sound engineer, I'm so anal about putting new batteries in both packs almost every shoot. Better piece of mind, after this once happened to me. One last hint of advice for when you shoot outdoors like that, if your mic came with a little foam wind screen to slide over the capsule, this is when to use it.
Thank you buddy. I'm learning. I got your Christmas card today. Thank you my friend. Please give my best to your ladies. A very Merry Christmas to the Caruso's.
Oh so glad you recieved it! Merry Christmas to your entire family, from ma'ladies and I. All the best, and stay warm!
Wow I'm impressed this is cool
Thank you for watching, Eric
Great looking sign Eric, my question is, you said you apply the sanding sealer as soon as you get the boards home so are you not concerned about the moisture content? wont the sealer prevent the board from drying to the point that you like?
Good question Glenn. On the select pine on the redwood I use I've never found one with excessive moisture in the board. I really only have that issue with the cedar fencing.
Minwax also makes a water based Helmsman. Have you used it and is it as durable as the oil based? Thanks for the great videos.
I haven't used it yet, but I hear great things about it. Thank you for watching, Eric
Thank you so much. Gigi nw.
Thank you!!! Please email me directly if I can answer any questions for you, eric@makeawoodsign.com.
Eric what do you use to clean your brush after using the helmsman spar urethane - Burt
It's oil based so I just use paint thinner
Eric, under which circumstances do you use the brush on vs the spray urethane? Thanks!
On bigger signs I always put at least 2 coats of spray on first Then I brush coats because it's allot less expensive to brush coat. 1 brush coat is probably equal to 10 coats with a spray can and the spray cans cost about $10 per can. For smaller signs I pretty much use the spray can for convenience. Hope this helps, Eric.
can u show a picture of the can with the drilled holes
I will do that on Mondays C & Q. Good idea. Thank you
What kind of black spray do you use? Tried regular spray paint on a live edge slab and the paint bled through and couldn’t sand it all off. Had to plane it and start again. Thanks for any advice.
I use either black spray stencil ink, flack black primer, or black primer/paint matte finish. Check our video Fri night fun with the Rhoten's 1/10/2020. We go over them all. If you can't find it, or have more questions please email me directly, eric@makeawoodsign.com. Thank you for watching!!!
New to making signs. Would you still apply sanding sealer if your wanting to stain the wood? If not how do you stop the black from bleeding? Thanks love your videos.
Only on pine. Remember the way I do it, the sanding sealer is all gone from the sign once the black is sanded off so staining isn't a problem. Please email me directly if you have any other questions. Thank you again, Eric@makeawoodsign.com

Egggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggslent content. Thank You!
Thank you buddy!!!
Hey Eric. Great looking sign. I have a lot of milled cedar and want to make some signs for family and friends. From your video you said that you don’t have to use sanding sealer on cedar. I hope I can save a step by not using it. Can you confirm that I don’t have to use sanding sealer on cedar please. Thanks.
Hey Danny, cedar doesn't bleed at all when using flat or matte finish spray. You should be good to go. Just make sure your moisture percentage in your lumber is under 12%
watching here phillipines can I ask what is the procedure for wood finish materials?
I have a playlist title finishing where I go over lots of way. My prefered way for finishing signs is with my critter spray gun. Here's a link to a video that should help th-cam.com/video/QbF4Fw8G7gQ/w-d-xo.html Thanks again for watching. If you have more questions you can email me directly, eric@makeawoodsign.com.
I like the color of that sign. What type of wood did you use? Mike from the east coast.
I used Redwood on this one. Probably going to be tough to find in the east. Try Red Cedar...
Dave Rhoten I found cedar fence at a fencing place. I will have to see if they have red cedar
Do you recommend sanding sanding sealer on live edge boards?
Only on pine, because of possible bleeding issues with the spray primer
I needed that 2 weeks ago hahahaha
Sorry... at least you have it for next time.
Okay now I understand the Sanding Sealer. Saw you mention it and don't remember ever hearing you mention it before.
Wondering what signs do you use the Pine for? I use pine for a lot of mine, because of the cost of cedar here, but this video is the first time I've seen you work with pine. Secondly, you mentioned bleeding; I've had the marsh ink as well as acrylic bleed, and found out if I use Minwax Wood Conditioner after I cut my pattern, leave it for a few minutes then apply the paint/ink, the bleed is minimal, or non-existent. (Follow the instructions on the can.) Of course, this bleed happens from the wood being too dry, having been in my shop or it was too dry when I got it. Sometimes, I'll put a second coat on if I notice that the wood really soaks up the conditioner. You don't want it to "pool" on the wood, but you want to see it set on there a little. Then I'll paint it, let it dry, and sand it.
Barb, I use the pine because I don't have cedar available to me that's wider than 5 inch. So that's the reason I go to 1 x 12 Pine. I just use the sanding sealer on pine because it's susceptible to bleeding. I don't use it on cedar or redwood. It sounds as though you are using the wood conditioner much like I use sanding sealer. I want all of my boards to be dry down to approximately 6%. Glad you found a process that works for you. Thank you for watching and the feedback, Eric
To get cedar wider than the fence pieces, I either have to go to a mill work place, or Menards shows they have it. I never realized you worked on pine. I always thought you used only cedar. Nice to know. Since starting my sign making, I strive to get the quality I see in you and your dad's signs, and always felt mine were lacking from having to use pine. As for the sanding sealer, I may have to try it for the pieces I know will be sitting in the shed waiting for me as I've had them curl on me. Wish I would've known about the sealer when we got our deck wood earlier this year; it curled something fierce. Wonder if it would have helped. (Making another deck next year... will have to try it.) Many thanks for all your videos, and I'm sure I'll be bugging you with my two cents on other videos *smile*
Thank you Barb for watching and your feedback. We don't have too much humidity out here in AZ but I have had my pine cup on me if I don't get sanding sealer on it right away. I make sure and apply it immediately after I get it to the shop. You can always email me directly with you 2 cents eric@makeawoodsign.com. Have a great week....
What is that black spray you use ?is that a paint ?
I use either Spray stencil ink, flat black primer, or primer/paint that is matte finish. Here's a video dad and I did a while back that goes over all the details, hope this helps. th-cam.com/video/AA4ZCXotYCQ/w-d-xo.html If you have more questions feel free to email me directly, eric@makeawoodsign.com, Thank you
how do u clean your brushes
With sanding sealer just warm soapy water. The Urethane I use paint thinner.
Do you stain after?
No stain, just used spar urethane and the redwood.
Does this stop paint bleeding
Yes sanding sealer does help prevent bleeding as long as you use the correct spray and you don't over spray...
@@oldave100, thanks for the reply, I actually like to use acrylic paint rather then spray as it's just easier on the pocket and goes further but it still bleeds into the wood, I'm only new to sign making so will now use sealer and hopefully this will prevent it
You're welcome Gerald. It should help. If you have any other questions feel free to email me directly, eric@makeawoodsign.com
Try 0000 steal wool on the last sanding.
Thank you.....
Dave the voice over actually works a lot better on your outdoor videos. When your recording outside you are getting a lot of wind noise. You might consider voice overs for all your outdoor videos. Just a suggestion.
I'll keep that in mind, thank you
So now your a master at karaoke lol
Not a master yet, LOL
You need a Lazy Susan for this video. That way, you can brush all sides the way you like and not get in front of the camera :)
Yes you are right
