the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzitem.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

Hey man I have built and sold a few flags and had a few questions if you dont mind. #1 I started making my flags without a separate Union and found that it was more challenging with the dremmel due to the wood separations for each stripe. I have since gone to using a separate piece of wood for the Union which I find is much easier to carve now. My question is, how does the CNC machine do with the going over the stripes? Also, how hard was the learning curve to learn how to use the machine? Last question, why that specific machine opposed to others? I have been contemplating getting one but the people I have sold to already said they appreciate the hand touch. However, its very tedious carving each star and I would love to do more complex designs. Take care my friend. Thanks for your service!

Very nice! My Shapeoko is shipping tomorrow! What did bit did you use for the key hole? Very slick idea on that simple jig BTW!

You're gonna love the Shapeoko! The bit for the keyhole is a 3/8" keyhole bit. The one I use is made by Bosch

Excellent work, thanks for sharing.. Key hole jig is great, but since you have a CNC you can create a cut file and use your CNC. I have 2 files I use, one that cuts 0.32 inches deep and one that cuts 0.44 inches deep for heavier signs. They both are base on X0 and Y0, so I just need to jog my router to the location of the keyhole, then temporarily set X and Y to zero, then cut. -Les

Thanks for the support! I've thought about using the CNC, but with the jig it's so quick to put the keyholes right where I want em. Not sure if I could do it quicker on the CNC

Hi mate, I’m a Cop In London UK and I’ve recently started doing flags and punisher skulls etc... the orders are flooding in and I want to speed up my process a bit. I’m particularly interested in your cnc machine, can you post a few details please ? Obviously I’ll need one the same size as yours which will increase my designs AND profit margin 😉👍 Great work Brother !

I really like your technique with the Frog tape. Do you use a similar technique when making Red, White and Blue flags? I was wondering how you create a clean line between the Blue and Red section of the stripes. I have been using razor blades.....thanks...

Water based stain will still bleed a little with frog tape, but gel stain works really well
