The simplest way to make geometric wood mountain wall art (scrap plywood and hardwood flooring)

[@rickmelcher6845]

I’m shocked you don’t have more positive reviews. Like DAMN people. You shared a ton of great tips. Easy to follow and clearly helpful . (What size is yours?) Thanks so much! I’ve wanted to make one of these for my adult son. He loves the mountains & things made of wood. This is perfect & will help me make him a beautiful gift. Thanks & God Bless 🙏

Appreciate that, thanks a ton!

GREAT video. I like the "two square" technique. My son-in-law is a flooring estimator so there may be some oak in my future. Thanks again and this video shows that the good ones are always relevant! !! !!!

This was a great video. I’ve watched several and this one is my favorite. I’m working on some wall art… sorta. LOL. I’m actually making a mobile bar cart for a friend. The front will have some geometric art. It’s simple. I have some reclaimed oak flooring. It’s only like 1/4” thick. I made a planer sled and got them all the same thickness and removed all the grime and the previous finish. I finished planing it all and I have my substrate ready to glue it onto. I had a TON of the flooring. It was gifted to me and I’ve been holding onto it. This was just the right project for it. I milled all of it so that I can make some wall art pieces as well.

Very good video. I used a miter box for the small pieces.

Really enjoyed this one!

Thank you!

[@zachzywiak3403]

I just used this to make my own version. I can say I am also not proud of how cutting the little pieces went!

[@shannonjakoby5109]

Great, thoughtful video. I've been making wood mosaics (and quite a few mountain mosaics) for about a year now, and I still learned a lot. I like your use of the speed square and carpenter square for more accurate angles. I've just been using a wood triangle under the mountain peaks to make sure I have the right angle, but I like your method better. Nicely done.

Thanks!

[@vilmareynoso7343]

That is stunning! Thank you for sharing!

[@NotThatMattNagy]

Glad you liked it!

[@paulshaw9355]

How small were the pieces for the far away smaller mountains Thanks

[@gulfsouth6231]

Looks great! I read that you commented that you used drywall anchors and keyhole slots to hang it but whats the total dimension and approx weight?

[@robjtko]

Very impressive!!!

[@neubauer6]

What did you use for hangers?

[@NotThatMattNagy]

I used two heavy duty drywall anchors and hung them on two keyhole slots I routed into the back

[@mark3431]

Beautiful! Got me motivated to make one now! Are those 1" or 1 1/2" wide pieces you're using for the larger mountains?

[@robjtko]

Friend I have the exact same band saw that you have. I have never used a band saw before. I couldn’t get my saw to cut straight. So finally I slowed down not pushing the wood through the saw so fast and it seemed to do a good job cutting straight. Any suggestions other than what I mentioned to get a straight cut? Also I am using the blade that came with the saw. Thank you friend and thank you for the video. I’m going to like and subscribe. 👍

[@NotThatMattNagy]

I would say 1) treat it like a table saw and make sure you’re applying force both toward the fence and pushing forward, 2) use the thickest blade your saw will take, and 3) go slow.

Sir, those dumbbells are hardly heavyweight. Got to up your strength. Otherwise, great video!
