I found your channel in my feed because I have been searching for tutorials on ways to apply gilding to a vintage velvet fabric for a Victorian style keepsake box I will be making for a dear friend. Your work is gorgeous! This piece is very beautiful! So glad I found you, and I subscribed immediately! Thank you so much! Truly inspirational! Lisa

Thank you very much for the kind words, I’m really glad you’re enjoying the videos! I’ve never gilded on fabric before so I don’t have any tips unfortunately, but it sounds like a beautiful project so please share some pics of the finished piece because I’d love to see it :)

Those rolled up sticks you're using to clean the excess gold off is called a "tortillion" or "blending stump". They're paper, and theoretically you can roll your own, but I just buy them. Artists use it to smooth out and blend colored pencil/graphite/charcoal/etc .

I was wondering about CNC. 1. Apply the vinyl 2. Cut with a drag knife. 3. With a pointed tool, get the CNC to start the picking. ie, go into a corner, and move in a direct that lifts the vinyl 4. At this point I suspect you have to hand pick the lifted tabs. 5. Same for the glue, apply, use the drag knife to outline and the pointy tool to start the lift. 6. Drag knife again in the remaining glue to see if you get a controlled chip. For example a line for the stem of a leaf. Would that work?

@happygilder Жыл бұрын

It might work. My main worry would be if the glass wasn't perfectly flat, the pressure of the router blade would break the glass. Unless there's a pressure setting on there you could use. Let me know if you give it a try!

@@Nickle314 you can but it’s like setting off a glue bomb in your laser. I did it once and will never do it again

I'm curious; how would you acid etch in-place on a vertical surface? I would like to see this on a thick old door we have in our shop. Thanks in advance.

@happygilder 7 ай бұрын

I would take the door off and do it horizontally. If that's not an option then dammar embossing gives a similar effect. I've made a video about that process too

Hey, I'm a beginner and I love what you do. I want to know where I can purchase. the mica you use for etching.

Thank you I’m glad you like the vids!! I get the mica from LKAB Minerals. I use the coarsest variant which is Mica 1700
