Minimum size of a board Afro any string portrait should be 18 inch diameter. As for how to calculate distance between nails please watch this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aM-cl86j0MvXlX0.htmlsi=MjsG2g67Wf_VdAfJ

Thanks 😊

Thanks 😊

Some websites start the numbering from 0 and some from 1. So looking at the template I can determine from where to start numbering, 0 or 1. But if you are not able to do so do not worry. Suppose you number from 0-179 but your template does not have 0 then in that case you can treat 0 as 180. Similarly if you numbered from 1-180 but you template has 0 then in that case you can treat 180 as 0

@@GenieCrafts wow you answered very fast! And your answer is very helpfull, I understand. Thank you so much!

Welcome 😊

Happy to be of help :)

P.S. I watched your latest video and all is clear 😇 excellent!

Line with means Thickness of thread. Not sure about transparency. I don’t know Thickness in mm but if the 0.12 mm Thickness is weight 80 polyester thread, then yes the thread will be ok.

Yes, I will be doing that in future

Yes we can make squares. There is a video posted on on my channel

Thanks. I have briefly explained that in my first string portrait video. Planning to make a separate video on prep of board for string art. Coming soon.

I used to paste 300 gsm paper, but now I paint the board with white gesso

It does not matter where you put zero. Once you have put zero you start numbering the nails in clockwise direction. That way you will not get the flip

Trying to make algorithm for that

Distance between your nails should not be more than 8mm. So if you choose bigger board then your nail count will also increase accordingly. If these is too much gap between nails like 180 for a large board, the edge of your portrait will not look good due to excessive gap between the nails

@@GenieCrafts That was super helpful. Thank you!

Lesser the nails, worse the output will be

You can start from anywhere

@@GenieCrafts thank you

This specific board has a diameter of around 35 cm

Almost 2 am long nail

Try to cover the circle with only face. Try with and without background. Lastly not all pictures work

Regular sewing thread 😊

I package it from Amazon and here is the link Kavach Enterprise 6000 m + 6000 m... www.amazon.in/dp/B08TRDJ2VR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Weight 80 polyester sewing thread

34 cm diameter

I use nails from 7 mm cable nail clip

I use polyester thread. For more information check out this video on my channel kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9GGgNWEnLm7j4E.htmlsi=pU5kildaJDCbCPL2

Depends upon size of board. For smaller board u will not be able to use as many nails as you can for a larger board. For this board I have use 180 nails at a separation of 2 degree each

I have used polyester thread weight 80. Or u also know it as regular polyester sewing thread

Sorry did not understand ur question. Please clarify.

Yes, you can. However hammering nails would be harder on plywood as compared to mdf board

@@GenieCrafts ok , thank you 😊

11mm thickness 34cm diameter

It will not look good after final work but it will not impact ur weaving process. You will get consistency after practice or u can get a carpenter to get it done

Available on Amazon online

You can buy but if u r not in India you will end up paying too much as the shipping cost will be a lot. Far easier to get the board and hammer it in. Boards and nails are available online on Amazon. You can search for mdf boards

@@GenieCrafts thank you

Still figuring out right way to do it. Once I have it figured it out, will publish a tutorial on it

@@GenieCrafts do it fast ok

Try to upload this month

If time permits then sure, but don’t hold your breath. I m currently occupied in 3-4 projects, so it might be few months before I perfect coloured string portraits

If it’s a commissioned project, then u need to restart, ideally. But you can tie the threads properly and trim off the extra length near knots. But always have sufficient length handy. In case the knot does not get covered by subsequent loops, it does not look good

@@GenieCrafts Thanks a lot :) what should be the ideal length of thread needed to complete in one go for a portrait

@@aishwaryaramasamy933 depending upon ur board diameter calculate length of one loop. Multiply that by total number of loops in ur template and ur thread should be at least 10 m longer than that

It’s not an app. It’s a website and it will work in a browser only

Check the website for ITSY BITSY store

@@GenieCrafts Board name?

Mdf board

@@GenieCrafts How many inches of board are needed for 220 pins?

More than 30 inch diameter

Valid concerns. To avoid the issues, the board needs to be prepped with wood varnish and the entire artwork needs to be framed to avoid dust and moisture

@@GenieCrafts Yeah we can frame the wooden board. But what about the thread?

Once framed, it remains safe for a long time

@@GenieCrafts framed? You mean like circular glass on the top of nails & fix it?

No put entire thing in a square shadow box

Normally when u buy the boards the seller will tell u the diameter or radius. But in case you don’t have the info you can follow below method Place the board on a piece of paper and then trace a circle around the board. Cut out the circle from paper. Now carefully fold the circle in exactly half. Then fold again in half to make it a quarter. By doing so you will get an intersecting point. Once you have the centre you can measure radius easily with scale There are other mathematical ways also but this is much simpler

@@GenieCrafts thank you so much for so instant reply. No KZfaqr replies so fast.. Thanks 🥰 . You will grow more dear💕

@@GenieCrafts just tell me one thing. In the circle potrait from which side should I start the 1st nail? If I put the circle in front of me then 1st nail start from which side up/down/right/left? Hope you understand my point.

Varies from program to program. But in general 3’O clock is the place where you put the first nail and then move clockwise

11 mm

@@GenieCrafts thanks for replying bro

11 mm thick

The distance is radial instead of in cm. For this portrait the distance between the nails was of 2 degrees

@@GenieCrafts can we take 10mm distance for 30"×30" Inches

@@GenieCrafts tq sir for video

I am also searching for that 😃

It’s in the video description. Please check out

In case your template does not have zero, you can treat 0 as last number. So if your board has 0-179 then 0 becomes 180

@@GenieCrafts no no I understand what you are trying to say but my question is if I start with 1 then what will happen......my work will become wrong or what....?

Start with the nail which is starting point in your template.

@@GenieCrafts hi how about the thread art app

Not available for iOS but it’s there for android

It’s not big enough board, nails will be very crowded

@@GenieCrafts can you provide a link of board 😂 it's hard to find it

@EE_ARTIST itsybitsy.in

Sorry your comment for tagged for review for some reason. The numbering depends upon the software or website you are using to generate the template. Some start from 0 and some start from 1.

Please refer to below videos for string art in square frame kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o9ahgNR1vLzXc6M.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fq1xhM1ny9vLcas.html

Both are same. You can go 0-179 or 1-180

@@GenieCrafts I'm sorry, you can only tell me how much between the nails, please.

If it’s a square board then u can measure with scale and space the nails equally but if it’s a circular board then the final distance between the nails will depend upon board size and how many degrees apart nails are. For example for a circular board, if u r using 180 nails each will be 360/180 = 2 degrees apart. Anyways for circular board I have prepared a tutorial on how to generate mail placement for a circular board. Please refer to this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rtWEYJqrm9elpJ8.html At the end minimum distance between the nails should be 5 mm for easy looping of thread, no matter what type of board u r using

This kind of portrait does not look good on a small frame. So I recommend the starting size to be 20 inch diameter frame. On this size also I do not recommend to use more than 180 nails. The minimum separation between the nails is to be 5 mm but this will depend upon board size. E.g for same number of nails on a board of 15 inch diameter the distance between the nails will turn out to be smaller than for the board of 20 inch diameter. Pictures matter. What I have figured out through trial and error is that picture is to be of high resolution with good brightness to contrast ratio. Also when generating the template fill the entire area with the face of the subject. The bigger the face, the better the template will be

@@GenieCrafts You mean how much bigger the picture is, you need to use more nails, for example, if it's 50 or 60 inches.

@@GenieCrafts I'm sorry, I annoy you, but i haven't seen any place except your page that makes it so beautifully clear as you are.

@@ahmadnusry9766 so first the board should be big so that the final output is not that dense. Secondly when you select an image, you have to zoom in till the circular frame only contains only face of the subject.

@@ahmadnusry9766 not an issue. Please ask away.
