Episode #817 Today, we're introducing the newest router bit to our arsenal! This this is AMAZING! We're using it on a large Cedar bar sign. If I was using our normal 90 degree bit, this would've taken twice the amount of time.

Dang.....that is a game changer bit! It sure would have saved you a lot of time on some of the big signs you've made in the past. Eric better hide that bit when you move to Arkansas or Ryan will go wild and have all the tree trunks on the property carved with designs. LOVE how the sign turned out. It's AWESOME!!!

@littleliftera8244 7 ай бұрын

Awesome videos I noticed you said you prefer a flex trim router instead of a plunge router. Can one use a regular router and just buy a separate base? I tried using a plunge router years ago and damn it was so difficult….your videos re inspired me to try again.

@oldave100 7 ай бұрын

Usually the large routers come with the plunge and fixes base so you can use either. We like the trim routers just because they have plenty of power to do whatever we need them to and they're smaller so easier to maneuver.

@ericrhoten looking to buy a router, would u recommend the Flex trim router or that new milwaukee 1/2 plunge router kit. Mostly want to carve out signd and stuff like yourself?

@oldave100 8 ай бұрын

I don't care for using a plunge router for carving signs. It's too bulky and really not necessary. I love the FLEX trim router. It's super powerful, comfortable, the batteries last a long time and if you get it before the end of this year it's 100% lifetime warranty

Howdy Guys.... Nice video. I finally got around to getting myself a Carving Liner and a Profile bit. Ive been using just a 60° and just tilting the router for sharp edges and Dremel for higher detail. I was surprised when i heard you say "10 to 12 coats". Im curious, was that specifically just because you was going to do painting on top of it? When the painting was done, did you add additional coats of Clear ontop of the painting? Looking forward to the next videos. 😀

@oldave100 8 ай бұрын

The more coats, the better the finish looks in my opinion. But it was mainly for the painting. There's no need for another coat after the paint

@williambowens8291 7 күн бұрын

Nice work. I have both the large and small beer stencil. What color yellow are you using for the beer? I was going to purchase the 5 half pint sample cans and it comes with a yellow but it looks a bit light.

@oldave100 6 күн бұрын

I'm not 100% sure. I can't look right now cuz we're in Utah. Shoot me an email ryan@makeawoodsign.com and when we get back in town I'll look at it for you

@Luvs2fish76 6 ай бұрын

I have a question for you guys. Why don’t you or should I use a bowl bit to clean up the scalloping in and around the art not the edges but everything else to make a smoother look. Btw just started following you guys, love the tutorials and the banter between you and your dad.

@oldave100 6 ай бұрын

😂😂Thanks man! We have a lot of fun working together. You definitely could use a different bit for a smoother look, and maybe we'll do that in the future. We just like the rough texture look.

No, we keep our routers full speed when carving. The only time we ever turn them down is if we're surfacing a board on the router sled

Nice work. You said you linked everything in the description but I didn’t see a link to the paint you were using to paint the beer mug. Also, do you have to seal the sign again after you paint it.?

@oldave100 8 ай бұрын

Oh man, sorry about that. I don't have the link right now but just go on Amazon and look up One Shot paint and there's a ton of different colors on there. And no need for more sealer after the paint.
