[@johncoonradt9000]

Nice job what was that plain white paint you were using.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you! I think just a plain white, can't remember exactly.

[@jeffmay1024]

How high of a grit number sandpaper did you use for your orbital sander for the polyurethane?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I think I went to 320

[@usernamemykel]

Clever use of clamps.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks!

[@usernamemykel]

@@SecondSonWoodworks You’re welcome

[@casper7784]

Outstanding!

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks!

[@SenshiDragonGaming]

i know its been 5 years, but just curious, why didnt you use the double sided tape to secure the wood to the bench instead of using 4 clamps?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Good question, not sure if the double sided tape would be sufficient to hold while routering and sanding

[@Nmdresser]

Awesome work man. Very helpful!

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks! Glad it was helpful. I’ll be posted another sign video this year, stay tuned

Gracias Amigo! 🙏🏻

[@gerryturley6070]

I think you realy should see Eric Rhoten to see much better and crisp ways in producing signs.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Okay

[@sandersjones1577]

That sander looks pretty good about now.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Treated me well for over 6 years now!

[@andre1987eph]

I like the use of white lettering.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you!

[@shannonmarie6227]

Cool!

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks!

[@dashermike3207]

What program did you use to produce the large font letters?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I thinkI used microsoft word

[@PFHS-101]

Nice job. It came out great and I actually like the white paint. You can rename your channel tombradywoodworks

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you! Haha I guess I should do that huh?

[@yourunclesam6780]

Hello my friend! Un saludo desde Santa Barbara 😊

[@christinebored8809]

The finished product looked very amature..you should have done the letter insides flat...well done for trying though little fella 😊

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Alright Christine, thanks for your unfiltered comment tiny little gal.

[@DennisDolan-fl3mw]

I think the tree would have looked good green.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Ohh that’s a good idea!

[@sloanIrrigation]

Why would you place the camera so that we got a clear view of the back of your hand instead of the work you were doing?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Sorry! This was an early video for me. Still learning. Check out some of my newer videos; the quality is much better.

[@1492junus]

Why do you use the masking tape on top?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

So I can see through it to the letters.

[@bigdog5561]

That’s way you use packing taps not masking tape but I thing was we wanted to know is what is it holding down seeing it on top of the paper so it’s not holding anything down

[@lightningfisher8177]

@@bigdog5561 plus it keeps the paper from disinagrating when routing

[@StuffUCanMake]

This is great! It's a subscribe of course.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you!! Right back at you!

[@johncoonradt9000]

How much do you charge for a sign like this.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Hmm one like this, maybe 40-50 dollars. This was a while ago so I can't remember exactly. Now it would be worth more with wood prices and inflation. Thanks for watching!

[@johncoonradt9000]

What color was the stain

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Dark Walnut!

[@xaviergarcia2301]

You should really check out some (or all) of Eric Rhoten's videos

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I checked them out! Great channel, lots of info! Thanks

[@seanelucero]

Like the other guy said. Great video of your elbow

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

ha! you obviously only watched a section as there is more than just that part with my elbow! Check out my new videos as I have become better at filming :)

[@timlist4173]

Looks Nice! But the audio of you working reminded me of the dentist drill. Next time per mute it down a bit or cover it up with the music.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you! Hahah that is good to know. No one likes the dentist drilling. Thank you for watching!

[@sandersjones1577]

Spray a little glue next time and sand it off 80 grit paper . Thanks for the video

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks for watching 😀

[@PhoenixRising-nm1he]

Good video! Thanks. Hated the music though! Do you really need it?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you! Probably not haha check out my newer videos and let me know if sound is good

[@dgroover5044]

Beautiful job, sir! Quick question, how can I get that good? 😂

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thank you for the support!

[@johnconservative469]

I thought there was a lot of good effort in this sign, and the basic design was good. There seemed to be too much feathering in the letters and the tree. It made the end result look a bit amateurish. Perhaps the bit was too fine. I've seen other videos of hand-held carvings which showed much cleaner letters without using chisels afterward. Wood selection might be a problem also. I am not a professional, and am making my comments as personal opinions only.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks for sharing!

[@brahmaiglash76680]

Bit name kya h sir

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Hello!

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Thanks for watching

[@TracyJammeh]

tacky spray would have probably worked better to secure your stencil. And moving your camera so we could actually see what you were doing would have been nice.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Okay Tracy

[@124adams]

You spelled the name wrong - Tinsleys < is the proper plural of the family name, what you carved is the contraction of "Tinsley is"! If you want to dress it up you can add the apostrophe after the s... as in Tinsleys' . Masking Tape is made of paper not clear plastic - what you used is known as "packing tape"

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I think the clients wanted it this way so they could hang it above their front door and it would indicate that the house was theirs. And thanks for the correction.

[@leightonwestbury92]

@@SecondSonWoodworks some people have nothing better to do than correct other peoples mistakes and ignore their own, keep up the good work and ignore their negativity

[@Exsig12]

@@leightonwestbury92 I second the ignoring of the negativity aspect of putting yourself out there. Focus on the positive!! Comments help you understand some things though, they were correct on the tape. Someone not knowing the difference would run out to buy masking tape only to realize it wouldn't help them. Nice job on the project!! 👍

[@srenlauritzen7457]

Might move the camera 🥹

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I always try to! Watch some of my new videos and my camera movement is a bit more frequent 😊

[@normanengland7592]

I suggest that you watch Makeawoodsign.com. and Johnathon Whittaker.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Good idea! Thanks for watching!

[@ourjourneytohope]

Poor camera angle for a how to video.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Okay check out my newer videos for better angles

[@usernamemykel]

Your "masking tape" appears to be wide clear cellophane tape - you're not "masking" anything.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I probably used the wrong term to refer to this tape. I think I meant clear packing tape! Sorry

[@jennadollface]

music in back ground is annoying

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Okay

[@bernielamont825]

I'm guessing it was pretty good, just quit watching because all I could see were your hands and your shoulder

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Sorry, been trying to get back with my filming, check out some of my newer videos and let me know

[@ticzone34]

Im a subscriber to your chanel and you do some good things but,,, that sign is horrible... Leave the sign making to Eric Rhoten's youtube channel....

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Dang dude, that’s not nice! At the very least be more specific, I think this sign turned out nice and the people I made it for really liked it!

[@MeyersCTR]

Not much of a painter are ya?

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

I got the job done didn’t I? Or didn’t you only watch a tiny bit of the video and then make your judgement?

[@botjimllfixthatellis4805]

Sorry, but that looks awful.

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Disagreed🧌

[@romeliapolly4171]

I was using WoodPrix instructions to make it and I did it already :)

[@SecondSonWoodworks]

Nice
