Frist of all i want to thank Kenny for mentioning my work,i actually saw his video making the bear and i love it a lot,also he is very clear and practical in his explanations and i told my self,that i was going to try it but the problem arrived with the flocking,it was very expensive for me ,so by chance i found some videos on how to do it with saw dust and acrylic paint,so i got to work and with a lot of practice,that bear that you see in the photo was the result,what i used for adhesive was white glue in which i applied a few drops of the same color of the flocking it resulted for me,as Kenny says just do,it ,I'm retired now,73 years of age who likes crafts i got interested in intarsia about 8 months ago and fell in love with it,again my thanks to Kenny.Please forgive my spelling it´s has been a while sense i lift the states...

Thanks for the kind words. It is me that should be thanking you for the inspiration to make my own flocking and bring it to the show. It just demonstrates that no matter how old you are or how much experience you think you have, there is always something to learn from others. If it wasn't for you and your willingness to try something new, I would have never tried this process. Thanks for being the inspiration for the show and for tuning in. It's very much appreciated. I can't wait to see what intarsia piece you come up with next.

Kenny, what a brilliant solution to save money not to mention the ability to make custom colored flocking. I like it!!! Oscar hit a home run with this one.

A flocking great show and you, sir, are a flocking brave man to use Mrs. Kenney's spice grinder to do the experiment. The result is outstanding and, in my experience, I have never really ever gotten the brilliant color out of Deco Art acrylic that the label would lead one to think they would get. . .and that is after sometimes adding 2-3 coats. A more red comes from the Tuscan Red color. Also, a top coat will bring out more color but usually we don't top coat flocking. But a great show and I think it opens the door to some really cool experiments. I would agree that using another adhesive base with some color to it, as we do with commercial flocking, may lead to a more brilliant hue. And a last thought. .If you have Ollies or Dollar General or any any steep discount store around, get your own shop spice grinder or a mortar and pestle. You may not be as lucky the next time with Mrs Kenny's spice grinder .. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Great show. See ya next week!

Thanks for the great words of advice and for chiming in with them. As for getting my own grinder, I live by the moto.....if you aren't living on the edge, you're taking up too much space. Thanks for tuning in and for taking the time to leave your comments.

That was great tutorial on use of recycling materials. Colour wise pine dust would’ve given you a greater red colour too, time to pick up the belt sander and pine scraps 😊. Thanks again Kenny 👍🏻🇦🇺

As a professional cabinet maker we'd seal product first (real important for best results), spray project with an Oil Based Paint, similar color to the flock so you can't see gaps or throughit - This process provides best results, ensure you Don't touch it and keep project in very clean area until completely dry. Others than using an electrode magnetic flocking machine this is actually a really cool and helpful vid. Great job Kenny - vid on making homemade flocking device would be helpful too.

Great idea and such a cute bear Oscar. Ken, however, I think you should keep this ice chopper in the shop and buy your wife a new one. I think you'll both be much happier. 😄

Never heard of flocking before I watched this video. I understood more toward the end of it where you would actually use flocking. I could see it being used on diorama progects. What are more common uses for it?
@acutabove_woodworkings

Dioramas, train set landscapes, adding plush effects to intarsia, band saw box drawer linings, or anywhere that you want to add a softer, textured look to a project. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
