What’s a good wood to use for a marquee 5ft letters?

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, thanks for watching. For making marquee letters there are two woods used most often. Plywood or MDF, I have been using MDF most of the time due to cost. With recent events plywood pricing went crazy high, more than double the original cost. So, I used MDF which is good, smooth finish and takes paint well after primer. But can be heavier and absorbs moister more than plywood. I have recently went back to plywood as the pricing has gone done some. Plywood is lighter and creates a more rigid structure. I am planning a video soon to talk about in more detail about marquee builds and the different techniques. Thank you for your question.

[@gracellesu]

what material did you use for the cylinder cover?😊

[@mlevenstone3]

Great video! Love the way you explain. Have you ever painted the polywall panels? If so what did you use? I need to paint one for a client!

[@MakerDecor]

Hi thanks for watching. I have used spray paint, a spray gun and I have also used a roller. The roller worked better than expected. Just make sure you use the smaller, smooth roller.

[@mlevenstone3]

@@MakerDecor Thanks for your reply! So I don’t need to sand it a little to get the paint to stick? I’ve read that since it’s plastic paint can be harder to adhere. Do you use a specific paint?

[@MakerDecor]

@@mlevenstone3 Sanding does help adhere to plastic. However, I did not and it adhered well. I used interior / exterior hi-gloss white.

[@loRdpharaoh]

I just bought the plans! thank you I just had a question I love the size of the diameter of the big one but if I wanted it taller can I just make the legs taller? sorry im so new at this!!!

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, yes for sure. Just lengthen the legs and adjust the height of the polywall that wraps around and you should be good!

[@beautyantedote1797]

In total how much does it cost to build these?

[@user-pw1oz5hz9e]

love seeing your tutorial. Did you use paper to wrap it around? If so could you specify which kind? I didn't see in description. Thanks!

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, no it is polywall from Home Depot. Like a thin plastic.

[@vacevedo15625]

Hey man love your videos and plans , my wife has made me to multiple of your decorations and your plans are very simple and easy to understand I just have a simple question do you prefer doing these circle platforms in 3/4 plywood or 1/2 ?

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, thank you so much for the support! I do try to stick to 1/2 inch for most of the things I build or thinner. Just because when I start using 3/4 inch, the weight does start to add up. I remember when I first started I built backdrops out of 3/4 inch and man I learned quick because I had to setup. lol So if I can get away with 1/2 inch I would stick to it. But there may be situations where 3/4 is required, I think for these pedestals 1/2 inch gets the job done. Hope that helps!

[@vacevedo15625]

Yes it does that’s exactly what we were thinking , weight is going to become a factor after all the things she’s having me to from your plans lol but appreciate the respond keep doing what you do 👍

[@walking_back_home]

Hi, I was planning to build this for simple events at home, i would just like to ask what material is used to cover for the sides of the plinths. I was planning to DIY this, but since im not from the US, I'm not so sure the material used on it sides is available around where I'm from. Thanks you in advance :D

Hi, it is polywall purchased from Home Depot. Thank you and Good luck

@@MakerDecor where do you buy polywall? I want to buy your plans just want to make sure I can hey all supplies Do you have a video on how you put the Polly wall on

[@MakerDecor]

@@juanitamartinez531 Hi thanks for watching. The polywall can be bought at Home Depot or Lowes. It is at most hardware stores. The cheapest and thinnest one is at Home Depot and that is the one I used. It is easy to wrap. Just tack one side and wrap it around the plinth enough to cover it and screw it closed. You can also get it at Lowes for a little more money and it is a little thicker but can work. If you have any other questions please let me know, thank you.

[@michellecreative701]

What is the wrap called?

[@MakerDecor]

Hi thanks for watching. I do have the plans available on the etsy store with more information. To wrap the plinth I used a plastic you can find at Home Depot in the plywood section. Its only sold in 8ft x 4ft sheets. But you can use other options as well. Most people I see use very thin plywood and a nail gun or thin sheet metal using sheers to cut. This was just the way I did it. Thanks so much!

[@angelietubanza272]

[@MakerDecor]

[@anaguzman9410]

Hi, do you know the name of the polywall in Spanish? I am making my own cilinders and dont know how I can find the material here in El Salvador.

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, I do not know the name but here is some of the description of it. The 1/16 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. Plastic-Panel. This Panel is resistant to rot for durability. This Panel is great for commercial bathroom applications. Plastic material, White color, Resists rot and moisture. These plastics are mainly used in commercial restrooms or laundry rooms where there will be increased amount of moisture or chances of splashing on the walls. These plastics are glued to the wall to protect from any water source, mostly commercial applications. I would go to your local hardware store and search for thin plastic wall protector for moisture or water. They are usually thin as they are meant to be glued on, not nailed. That makes them very easy to bend and usually very cheap compared to other alternatives. Good luck

Hey brother, I have a question. What if you want to paint them..let’s say..pink? Can they be spray painted with a color other than white?

[@MakerDecor]

Hi, yes. with high quality spray paint it should be no problem. What actually works great is a small smooth roller and paint as there is less chance of the paint dripping compared to a spray can. Good luck.
