Indian Motorcycle Sign - CNC Cut

[@BrianSmith-mf8os]

Nice job on the Indian sign! I'm a tech teacher and have made hundreds of these types of signs in the last few years in my school shop. One thing I do to prevent the little leaks around tape lines is to use a j roller and really press the tape in before we cut it. Another thing we do is sometimes use Contact Paper (self adhesive shelf liner) as the masking material. I liked your technique of using a paint roller to fix the leaks. Good work

[@GotItMade]

+Brian Smith Thanks Brian, I appreciate you watching! Great tips. Thanks for sharing with everyone. I have studies on the contact paper before but always worried it was a tad too thick and stretchy to cut clean. I'll give er a try now though.

[@marceaton3128]

I am glad I found your channel. I have been having problems with my signs and I picked up on a few tricks watching you. The trick to touch up is get as much paint off of the roller when you make the final passes. And the wire brush. Thanks for sharing.

[@GotItMade]

+Marc Eaton Thanks Marc!

[@NotFromConcentrate]

I have no idea how you got your lettering so clean with blue tape...looks great! *jelly*

[@tubalcain1]

Very cool Feddie!.... The more I see that CNC work.. the more it inspires me to get one of my own.... Thanks for sharing!

[@GotItMade]

Danny Herrera Thanks for checking in, Danny. I've never regretted the investment in the CNC. It has opened up so many possibilities.

[@marknantais8283]

Sweet build,can't wait to get my cnc router going.

[@bst278]

I just started doing a little of this for fun with my new X-Carve. I tried to do this with the tape but had a lot of trouble with it pulling up. Love this video. I have probably seen it 4-5 times. Thanks for sharing!

[@Trainman0401]

You are an artist! Beautiful.

[@Woodnfixit]

Love the sign! After seeing your new CNC upgrades, I'm looking into getting one like it in my shop. Also, you might try using clear, self adhesive, shelf liner next time you have a similar project. One single piece of masking rather than multiple strips of tape. Saw that on another CNC site somewhere.

[@dessertman1181]

FEDDIE IS A IT AGAIN ANOTHER QUALITY PROJECT!!! BOY DID THAT TURN OUT NICE. WELL DONE!

[@GotItMade]

Dessert Man Thanks for checking in, Dessert. I appreciate you watching the video!

[@secondwind75]

Awesome sign, Feddy. Always loved everything about Indian Motorcycles. Thought it was going in your shop but looks good anywhere! Great job. Troy

[@GotItMade]

secondwind75 When I was a kid there was a hardware/garden store in Weber City, Va that used to sell Indian trail bikes. I wanted one so bad but never got one. I've liked em ever since.

[@georgescidmore5968]

Man of few words but a lot of talent.

[@pachu007]

Hey! great video there, I love Indian Motorcycles and making CNC wood carving signs, greetings from Ecuador!

[@hairlesshippy]

I'm new to CNC and have been banging my head trying to figure this out.. excellent video.. seems the step I am missing is to paint the board and cover with painters tape BEFORE carving.. Going to try this tonight!!

[@dustinhergert9499]

Well done, sir! This sign looks incredible! I don’t have a motorcycle but I think I’m going to attempt to make one of these signs for myself!

[@GotItMade]

Thank you Dustin.

[@OutlawWoodworking]

Great looking sign,I’d like to try to make one we’re did you get file to make thanks 🙏 John

[@Retroweld]

Great job and nice CNC! By the way, I bought the Fuji paint sprayer because of your review. I love it. Thanks

[@GotItMade]

RetroWeld Outstanding! I think you're gonna like the Fuji a lot. Send me some pics of your paint projects.

[@rickhaberland9183]

LOVE IT! YOU SHOULD DO ANOTHER ONE OF THE INDIAN CHIEF AS THAT WOULD LOOK AMAZING! I SAW ONE LAST WEEK THAT WAS OVER 6' LONG AT THE INDIAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT A SKY BLUE/IVORY CHIEF VINTAGE BIKE!

[@MickWoodworking]

Great looking sign ..... you are having way too much fun with the CNC, keep up the great videos

[@GotItMade]

Mick Martin Thanks Mick. I was checking out your channel the other day. I did not realize that you are using a Camaster. I've been looking at those now that I have cut my teeth on a DIY machine I have. They aren't far from me. About three hours down the road. I've been thinking about driving down sometime and checking them out.

[@MickWoodworking]

Check out CAMaster forum at www.camheads.org

[@GotItMade]

Will do.

[@scrollsawpassion2497]

Beautiful sign..... must be original Indian from 1901.... Todays indian is from around 2005..... only the name is original.....,

[@Bonaur]

Looking damn good! Can you give some insights in the, wood material (plywood or several pieces glued together), tape used and router bit. I tried a similar approach, but my tape got more torn that cut. and gummed up my router bit. Your cuts looks much more clean. Thanks in advance. Bo.

[@GotItMade]

Bo Andersen Thanks Bo. I appreciate you watching. The wood is just a cheap stain grade panel board from Lowes. It's either pine or whiteboard. It's real soft. The tape is just a good quality painters tape. This was the first time I had tried this technique and it worked pretty good but there will be areas of tear out. I just had to re-tape and trim with a razor knife afterward. My bits did not gum up too bad. I was running a 90 degree V-bit at about 14k rpm. Since then I have made a couple using the large 90 V-bit on the large letters and a smaller 90 V-Bit (running wide open) on the smaller letters and had a little better result. I buy all my bits from toolstoday.com. Here's the part number on the bits: 180-20 & RC1102. Hope that helps!

[@buccos2004]

Really great work as always! That smoke alarm is still chirping. Haha

[@GotItMade]

Dennis McCamley I'm gonna fix that thing as soon as I can fins a round tuit..... :-)

[@bassineveryday7695]

How much would a cnc chevy sign cost in a similar shape and size to this? With the text chevy runs deep under or over the logo. I love the look of this sign and would like something similar for chevy that would be awsome

[@pkaser]

Awesome! Thanks for posting!

[@dinoilcagnolino3213]

Man. That is one beautiful sign. Compliments

[@GotItMade]

+DINO IL CAGNOLINO Thanks! I appreciate the compliments.

[@MrDannyDube]

Thank you for the stuff tape for cutting I'll try tomorrow with my CNC. I also want to do an upgrade with cnc router parts PRO 4x8 or 5x10 in the next month! thanks!

[@GotItMade]

Cool. Lemme know how it turns out!

[@gacyx6802]

A couple great tips in this vid. Thanks for sharing!

[@GotItMade]

+Gacy x Thanks for watching, Gacy!

[@PSModernKitchens]

That’s fantastic!

[@MacnWood]

Great idea with taping it first!!! I'll have to use that. Turned out sweet

[@GotItMade]

Mac n Wood Thanks for watching. The tape holds up pretty week with a v-bit but a straight cut end mill tears it out some. I actually re-taped and trimmed the areas that tore out. Overall it worked really good. I had never tried it before so I did not know what I'd end up with.

[@krisbredwell2644]

So nice to watch!

[@ServiceTrek]

looks great. what's the most dangerous part of the finishing process? about @4:15 would make me nervous :)

[@GotItMade]

ServiceTrek Thanks for watching. If you don't have too much paint on the roller and don't roll it too hard then it won't be as scary as it seems. :-)

[@hugehelp]

awesome!! Just what I needed!

[@frankmartinmillworks2356]

Can I get a copy of your vector file on this project? Looks great! Ty

[@drkline69]

What nap roller did you use?

[@knuckles1280]

What tape and bit did you use? I can never seem to get clean tape lines during the cut.

[@GotItMade]

It was painters tape with a 1/4" downcut end mill. It did tear out the tape in some places.

[@OutlawWoodworking]

I’d like to try making one of those you did a great job , where did you get the file to cut it , thanks John

[@patrickmccain9592]

I enjoy all of your stuff. I'd love to see a video showing details about your CNC. What is it? Where did you get it? Table size? Anything else you can think of to help out someone who might be looking into one.

[@holdemNE1]

Very cool. Looks like a fun toy. Well done.

[@GotItMade]

I'ma wiseaker Thanks!

[@angelgegege]

Nice!! 👍

[@michaelestes8360]

[@SawDustMakerRJM]

Great job on the sign. It really looks fantastic!

[@GotItMade]

Saw Dust Maker Thanks Brother. I appreciate the view!

[@aaronstariha6841]

I have been trying to do this but the paint from the roller keeps flicking into the recessed lettering no matter how gentle or slow I go. Do you use a foam roller?

[@marknantais8283]

Nice work,great looking sign

[@sahel87]

very very nice.. what type of paint you used ( red ) .. water or oil based paint

[@MikeKapotsy]

Nice work! Very high quality sign and like the technique.

[@GotItMade]

+Chris Stevens Hahahaha. I did..... :-)

[@americagodojo3286]

[@GotItMade]

Pine.

[@steves4200]

Really love the sign, colors, fonts everything just looks perfect! Did you design it from scratch or did you find a existing logo ? seems like thee font for the Indian is unique

[@GotItMade]

Thanks Steve. I used a logo and then touched it up to suit the tool paths that were required.

[@mannyfilmsinc]

Great video.. where those fonts single line? thanks

[@AceNos71]

Really cool, nice work!!

[@GotItMade]

AceNos71 Thanks!

[@stephenromanski2816]

[@jamesperacca2606]

Love ur videos u do a great job inspire all of us out here u have a great attitude > Were can a guy get a cnc machine like that ? Sebastopol jim thanks and keep up the great work

[@stephenromanski2816]

thanks for the quick reply and advice. Is that the CNC router parts pro CNC? I was looking at their machines. If it is, how do you like it? Have you had any problems? Did you get the 23 or 34 motors? thanks

[@GotItMade]

+Stephen Romanski Yes, it's the CNCRP Pro with NEMA 34's. Very satisfied with the machine and the company. Give Cory a call and talk to him. He's a solid dude and will steer you right. Let him know I sent you if you don't mind.

[@dragnflyfabricationsllc526]

Do you have this file in dxf?

[@keithstanley2007]

A truly impressive sign!!! It looks like you made it with the same quality if wood that you used for you Harley sign is that correct? I have a great friend who rides the Kawasaki Drifter which is designed to honor the Indian and I am just going to the wood store to purchase some wood to make this for him. What colour did you use for the 'white'? Would you share the file?. I have started watching your videos and subscribed too. Thanks for the great videos!!

[@momoney2720]

looks like....no

[@treymorris5945]

Love the videos that you make! But i have a couple of questions. I am a senior in high school that has been using the schools cnc to make different products for family and friends. I recently saved up enough money to get my own for downstairs. I am a whole lot better then my construction teacher at the machine :) But when i try to recreate a masterpiece, like this sign you made here the tape comes off every time. I tried using different bits like a v-bit(60 degree .25") and a v-bit(90 degrees .5") Am i missing something? Did you change the speed rate? Are you using a different bit? What exactly did you do not to get the tape to come off while cutting out the sign? Is there anyway you can send me the saved file? Thanks Trey

[@jreid43]

Did you use PVC or wood pls?.Although it looks like extra thick PVC if it is.

[@GotItMade]

It is wood.

[@michaelnowak4078]

GREAT JOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@manvstaco]

What did you charge the customer for this sign? It's beautiful :)

[@TheRmc1972]

just out of curiosity,,,,what size of stepper motors are you using on the x,y,z ...axis.......beautiful sign ,,,well made.

[@GotItMade]

Thanks for watching, Lisa. I used a 90 degree V-bit turning at about 12,000 rpm. Yes, I get some tearout too.
