Not sure if I commented already.Thank you!.This is the best way of explaining this I have seen.Everybody else drift off in some nonsense that dont make any sense.Very well done.I think I will be able to get something like this done now.

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Thank you.

Awesome video, maybe a part 2 showing the paint/ stain side of it. Thanks for all the help.

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

I have an older video on it, but it probably wouldn’t hurt to do a new one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5eQi4B9eauco8k

[@Hinkleshop]

Great stuff Chris! I picked up some new tricks from this one Thank you sir

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Glad to hear it. Thanks!

[@dodgeram2500ism]

awesome video as usual chris. just a helpful tip you can also right click and it will bring up the merge and subtract either way works

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Thanks. I need to make a hot key for it.

[@dodgeram2500ism]

@@ChrisPowellFSD yeah i was just designing some flags for an upcoming craft show and saw ur video im like ur always one step ahead of me lol

[@ElCidPhysics90]

Very good video. Thank you. Quick question: If I wanted the corners of the stripes to be sharper how would I go about doing that?

[@rafikshaikh7530]

Thanks you sir

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Thank you

[@warriorwomanwoodcraftdesigns]

Great video Chris! I didn't catch how deep you cut your stars. What do you recommend? Thank you!

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

I don’t set a max depth on them. I make sure that option is disabled. I talk about it at the beginning of the toolpath section.

[@Dogoargentino.mississippi]

Thank you

[@davegirimonte9945]

Hello Chris I just enjoy your videos I started the fire department flag in Carveco. My problem is trying to take the stripes out of the logo, I go to vector and all I get is is weld and explode no subtract comes up at all. Trident quite a few times it just doesn't work if you can help I would appreciate it thank you

[@cliffpurdy5970]

Hey Chris can you do a short video on how to pull an image from google I.e. the marine corps eagle globe and anchor or something like it and inset it into the flag using Carveco maker

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Yea I can see about doing something like that. The process would be similar to this for getting the image. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m53IiYWgdriEbqs

[@15Romeo19]

This was a great video! Mind posting a link on the shapeoko you use? This is something I've been wanting to get into for a while now

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Thanks. Mines a pretty modified Shapeoko 3. They don’t make it anymore. Now they have the 4 and Pro.

[@15Romeo19]

@@ChrisPowellFSD with the shapeoko 4 pro, it has the option for a hybrid table, I'm guessing that's optional? Pros and cons of a table and no table?

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

I think that’s sort of like the t track I use on mine. I think it’s a good option.

[@15Romeo19]

@@ChrisPowellFSD thank you so much for the help/guidance. I ordered the Shapeoko pro today! Anyway to get your contact info, I feel I'm gonna need it in the near future 😂😂

[@cliffpurdy5970]

Hey Chris went to calculate the fire logo and it says vector intersections were found in the selection and to correct in vector doctor. Not sure what I need to do or if you can do a video explaining Vector Doctor

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Carved I had a few available. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYjOhKCsmN6kf6M

[@ald.3449]

Can you do a video on how to design flag for a ortur laser master 2. I'm a newbie at lasering. But bought the laser to do some flags instead of dremeling!!

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

What program are you using? Lightburn?

[@ald.3449]

@@ChrisPowellFSD yes. I'm just learning that as well

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

I’ll see what I can come up with.

[@ald.3449]

[@kurtstrachota3969]

Does the toolpath save file matter if it is the Carbide MM type or the Carbide INCH type? My router is just diving in to the hilt when it begins. I am only doing a profile tool pass.

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

I don’t think it does. Where do you have zero set? Top of the work piece in the program and machine?

[@kurtstrachota3969]

@@ChrisPowellFSD top in both. I started over and remade the project but got the same results.

[@mikeledee8786]

How do I change the work area size after I import a vector design? Thanks

[@coachalan22]

How can you make that into a wavy flag

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

You would need maker plus

[@coachalan22]

Thank you is there a trial of that , I would want to see if it is worth the money as there is a considerable price difference

[@coachalan22]

@@ChrisPowellFSD and again thank you for your help, I have just upgraded to the longmill and looking at getting more involved in this

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

@@coachalan22 I’m not sure if there’s a trial. You could always try it for a month and then cancel is. Personally, I’d probably just buy it out right if it is something you like. CHRISPOWELL should save you some money.
