The best part of your videos are the fact you are a down to earth teacher, humor and all. I like the fact that all your videos are for the Roly only unlike the others. I do follow them, but yours are the most interesting.
I also turn wood bowl, and spent weeks trying to come up with jig to center my bowl so I could laser some decorations on them. BOOM, you showed us the find center tool. Next, I couldn’t figure out how to how to cut shapes. BOOM, there you were again. Then last Wednesday, you show how to use the Cut and Print for something other than the pass through. I alway enjoy your videos, and pickup something from every one of them. THANKS!
When working with oily woods like padouk, purpleheart, etc, wipe them down with a solvent like naphtha (dries faster than mineral spirits). It will eliminate the bleeding plus the clear finish will adhere better.
Steve, I'm a bit behind viewing your videos, so maybe I missed it, but why did you not engrave your inlays before you cut them out? Anyway, a method I've used to decide if my engraving will be in the correct spot: when I cut the inlay, I also cut a few piece sof cardstock with the identical shape. After the glue-up, I tape the cardstock over the inlay, run a test engrave, make any adjustments needed, then do the actual engraving. Sometimes I may go through a few pieces of cardstock until I get it right.
Sorry I missed the live. Was in the shop. Get soooo iritated with glued spots in the Baltic birch that pop up right in the midst of my project - happened with 2 different pieces, and yet a couple days prior, it was perfect.
@HoboWithWood Sadly, no. I bought a couple boxes from Amazon before I found you. Once the first is gone I will be buying some of the premium you list. Hey, thank you so much for the cut and paste video. It was awesome. I am working on a design and was ready to completely redo it that is, until, I saw how you broke apart those pieces. I accidentally welded something together early in the project and when I finished and went to cut it out, what I wanted left in, fell out. But, with the new info I have, thanks to you, I don't have to reinvent the wheel. I knew there was a way!!
I learn something new in aaaaallll your vids!!!! 😊 Also what type of set up do you have for your cameras, that you are able to feed them all to your monitor?
sorry if i type something wrong. I am in bed while watching the rerun of this episode. I clicked the notification bell but i don't get the notified. youtube issue. if you don't use print and cut before you move the work can you still use it and not lose your work or is it to late?
If you were on the computer, it should have given you a small popup notification. Another thing you can and should do is make sure you have the notifications "allowed" for TH-cam on your phone.
Be careful with your sanding, you can create a low spot the you won’t be able to fill in, and withe the glossy finish it will stick out like a sore thumb. It might be best left alone. You may see it but not everyone will notice. Remember you never noticed that the ice cream spelled TONYS.

Sorry I missed the live I was out on the road.
Excellent video as always ❤
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Steve you said you were doing a clean on your Roly could you maybe do a video of the strip down and what you clean please, thanks peter
I agree that the grain in the Paduk looks like a scoop of ice cream.
It’s melting. Wipe down the Paduk with acetone before finishing may help to prevent that. The horse is out of the barn now, but future reference.

Are you using my https:hobowithwood.com/premiumbalticbirch?? I have never had glue spots with this product. Not once.

If the case is suppose to shield your eyes from the laser, why wear the shades?
They are my Elvis glasses. They make me look COOL! Just one me level of safety. Kinda like wearing a life jacket in the kiddie pool.
Looking for the thanks tab on TH-cam, but it is nowhere to be found. Am I missing something?
Others were doing the super thanks during the stream. Don't know why you weren't seeing it. But I see from your subsequent post, you found it. Thanks.

How about doling out the files over a year in bundles?
I am working with my webmaster to create some roadblocks for the unscrupulous.
Suggestion. Make your coupon code, keyed to their name, good for one or two or three files a week, their pick.
I am working with my webmaster to find a plug-in or means to set some limitations.
I am sorry that jerks are too ignorant and have criminal tendencies and have cause you to do what you need to do. I would rather buy your creation.
