This video definitely helped me. I use the calculations in vcarve. So if you enter 3/4= vcarve should change it to .75

Finally, a simple way to make flags! You did a great job in going through each step, my results came out exactly the way I was expecting.

If you would click on the draw star icon and set the inner radius percentage to 38 the would work too. Just set the outer radius to the required value.

AWESOME, AWESOME!! Not only do you show how to create the "Perfect Flag" but also show us some GREAT features in Vcarve Pro and how to calculate items! I'm a novice in this hobby and looking forward to your next video on how to "implant" a design (maybe a 3D Eagle) in the flag!! GREAT JOB!! Thank you!! John...

In Job Setup you can enter the fraction value and vcarve will convert for you.: The height (Y) value entered as "8 17/32=" (no quotes, obviously), will give you the result of 8.53125.

Good video. You should learn how to use the array copy function. A good chunk of time was spent with the stipes and stars that could have saved you a ton of time.

Hi Matthew, would you be able to explain how that function works or how to do it? I just finished a flag following this video, it was my first time. It came out good!! 👍

watching you trying to anchor the union to the corner made me so unreasonably angry. JUST ANCHOR IT TO THE FUCKING CORNER THE BUTTON IS LITERALLY RIGHT THERE OH MY GOD LMFAO

great video. Have a question. Instead of copying each rectangle for the union wouldn't it be easier to use the array copy tool. I am a novice so Im just asking.

Yes you absolutely could use the array copy tool. As it really wasn’t that many I chose not to at the time. I may update the video since everyone is pointing that out!!
