 What is up? Welcome back. Do you like to do a builder to make it? So do we. We have a new video each week. This week. It's another test cut Tuesday. Had some laser issues so this is literally right off the laser. It always is. It always is. We had two lasers go down and one laser was busy doing engraving stuff. A three, no, four hour engrave? Yeah, four hour engrave. It's a beast. I'll show it to you guys. You want to see? Can't show it yet. There's nothing I really look at yet. Yeah, I guess. It's just engraved right now. It's not painted or anything. It's just raw. Are you trying to get away from me? No, I was just thinking I could center myself a little bit more. You want to come this way? No, six feet, Kim. Six feet. Kids got me sick. Grace doesn't know personal space so she likes to run up and hug her friends, even the ones that are sick, especially the ones that are sick. She's such an empath. She's like, oh, poor you. You're sick. Let me take that virus back to my family and let it run lamp it through the whole house. Yeah, what happened was last week she came out. Well, I came out of the bedroom and she was in the pantry closet where we keep all of our medications. And I saw her looking at them and I was like, what now? And she was like, from me to her, there was this much space because the pantry is right next to my door. I look over at her. What is wrong? And she goes, I don't feel well. Literally blew it all over me. And then I was sick over the weekend. Then her older sister had to pick her up from school later that day and then she got sick. Kim got sick. I thought I escaped it, but like a week later is literally a week later. It's a gentle cold. It's really not that bad. It's horrible. He's all right. He's all right. I feel like I have an elephant on my chest. That's the worst part. Look at Helen. Jason joins and says, hi all you hangers. Hey hangers. And then Helen joins and says, happy Tuesday hangers. It's sticky. Helen, it's sticky. I think it's sticky. It's unstuck. What is up hangers? How are you doing today? You hanging in there? It's Tuesday. How's your Tuesday going? My Tuesday is going. I woke up sick, had laser issues on two lasers. Can you tell Garrett's grumpy today? He said nothing. My live stream crashed. He tried to update itself and crashed. Yes, I'm complaining today. I am. I'll admit it. It's just maybe if I was a little more bubbly, these issues that happened today wouldn't be so impactful. Jerry says, good company. She's sick too. Sorry Jerry. And I will tell you that there are a lot of comments excited about this file today. This is all Kim. This is an all Kim file. I helped with the E at the end. Otherwise, I couldn't get my stripes right. This is all Kim. I showed her how to do the pieces that she wanted to do and she knocked it out. Check this out. I'm impressed. Oh, you helped me do that. You did it. I just told you how to do it. That's pretty cool. All right. Oh, Chris said she made the football laner over the weekend. Oh, is that a beast? I love that file, but Tanner says it's a beast. It's a beast to cut. Yeah, some time consuming, isn't it? Scott says hello. Hello Scott. Ria from New Jersey says hello. Oh, hello Ria from New Jersey. Hi, Christina. I got a soft spot for New Jersey. Uh, Lois says she's excited about the file. Yeah, Jacqueline from Ontario. This is what we're doing today. Pretty stoked. Still stoked, huh? We'll zoom in. We actually had to, but he didn't get the other one cut. Yeah, I had to. The other one's really cool. Hot off the laser. This one just didn't make it off the laser because the other two went down. So we had some drama this morning. But I think they're up and running now, right? They are. They just got really smoky because my exhaust got clogged. So they got really smoky and then it was very humid. So the smoke condensed on all the lenses and lasers and mirrors. So it was just a cleaning morning. Just had to clean everything, take it all apart, clean it. Little maintenance, little maintenance. Little maintenance. I try to do it on Wednesdays, one laser a week, every Wednesday. But it just doesn't happen, you know. I was also supposed to sweep and take out the trash every night, but that doesn't happen. Oh, Lois says she started following us. She loves our personalities and the way we work together. We have motivated her to make signs. Oh, great. I love people that start a side hustle. I love to see people get out from underneath the man. Be your own, the man. That's what I'd say. Hi, Chantal. And I got a good one for you. Nicole is from... Ohio. Ireland. Ireland! He loves it when someone's from across the pond. Yeah, across the pond. Yeah. And then Jason says, that's exactly why we need that Garrett Illustrator 101. Man, I'm working on it. I am. Oh, he was freaking out on Sunday. I need to spend some time to work on this. So he went up there. I think he did a little bit, did you? I did. I rehearsed it. I think I heard you up there talking. I was talking to myself. Yep, I rehearsed it. I was starting to get sick, so I was coughing all the way through it. And then I sounded hoarse. But it's coming. It's coming. It's more of a conversational thing. And then Jerry says she loves the file too. It'll be perfect for the festival on Saturday. Oh, yeah. We had a great event last weekend. Oh, you had a great event last weekend? So did we. We had a great... I mean... Yeah. This was the best craft show ever. Like, I enjoyed it. I would have... I'd still be there if it didn't stop. Yeah, we were in such a great spot. I mean, we felt like we were in a great spot. We were under a tree, so we were in the shade. And we were literally across the sidewalk from the restrooms, so that was convenient. Like, across the sidewalk, like three steps. And I'm in the toilet. We were across from a big trash can, so we needed to throw stuff away. I personally appreciated that. I did. I appreciated the trash can. I could hit it from my chair. We were able to pull up right next to our spot, because we were on the end. We were able to pull up right there next on the road and pull our stuff up. It was up by a little bit of a hill, but I'll take that any day. Yeah, I'll take a hill, but it was only like 20 feet from the road to our spot. I mean... Yeah. I'll walk up a 20-foot hill. It wasn't even like a big hill. And then, of course, if you saw any of our social media over the weekend, you knew that band was right across from us. Right across. And it was a different band, like every hour, every 90 minutes. Yes. Not every 90 minutes. There was a new band or a DJ, a new DJ. Yes. Day one, the DJ hits it like 8.30 in the morning, starts popping off with like disco tracks. It was a lot of early Michael Jackson, the BGs. It was like all disco. Well, we just found ourselves, we were doing this all weekend. It can help it. Yeah. It can help it. Yeah. Even they had local, it was like all local talent. It was Matthews County. All local talent. Matthews Virginia over... I'll tell you what, Matthews County is stacked with local talent. Yeah. I mean, they had some really good bands and their local theater people impressed me. They were doing like... Yeah, their theater group came and did some songs like From Beauty and the Beast. These are musicals they have done. Yeah, they were singing with British accents. I was like, what do you know? Well, Virginia's got some brits. Well, they did a great job. They did a great job. They did a great job. I was impressed all around and then they had the bounce houses and everything right next to the bands. Oh yeah, the kids area was right over by us. Kids area. So we were like heavy traffic area. We were just in a really great spot. And then right next to the kids area was the food. So people would get their food and wander over to the kids band area and what booth is over there by the kids band and area, band area? Our booth candy. Oh, look at those cute signs. Let me go under over there and take a look at those. And by the end of Saturday like the whole rest of the craft fair was cleared out and everybody's just gathered over by our booth because we were so popular. Actually, because they're about to have a dance party but like the last two hours I feel bad for the rest of the crafters because people were just getting spots and those spots were right at the back of our booth. Street dance. That's going to be a street dance. Street dance. We were right there the little sitting area, the lawn area. It was going to be right behind us. Dancing on the ceiling. So that was great. It worked out really great for us. And we had a pretty good sales weekend. So it was a great place. Great weather. Great music. Great sales. It was all around great. It was just a good weekend. All right. Well, we better start painting. We're taking our sweet time because we only have one file. So we're kind of not in a really big hurry. I was a little slack in, I guess. Oh, wow. Yeah. Wow. Great job. Let's get that out. All right. I have to actually step away a moment and do that DTF printer. Oh. It'll take me one minute. All right. Swap them out. What color is the backer? I'm thinking we go, should it be white or ivory? I mean, you can see on there I have antique white. Yeah. It's an antique white. It's fall, aren't you? Haven't you been yelling? Yes. It's fall. It's antique white. Yes, I have. I have. All right. I have a roller. Here's your. Here's my roller roller piece. Here's your plate. And then I'll drop your paint. I'll come get it. Great. All right, guys. I'll be right back. I have to do this because these are overdue prints. Yeah. We had issues with the DTF printer. I didn't have issues. The people that we left in charge of the DTF printer last week had issues. I don't know what the issues were, but we're behind on the prints. Oh, that, and we ran out of paper. We ran out of transfers. So we're trying to play catch up. We came in on Sunday doing prints. Man, I love hate that printer. I love it because I can print on anything, but I hate it because it's so finicky. It's like we left it alone for like four days. Well, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Sunday night, we tried printing again, and I had to clean that. The print heads. I had to do a print head cleaning and then pull the ink through again. All right, once I did that, it was fine. It was good to go. Then we ran out of transfers. So it sat again. I don't know. I like it. It's to me because Kim's not here. I can say this. I like it way better than sublimation because I don't have to treat anything and I can print on anything. I think Kim's a little more partial to the sublimation because it's easier. You don't have to do that. Oh, she's back. Never mind. I'm back. See, it was quick. It was quick. I was talking trash on the sublimation. I started talking trash on the DTF printer. Carol says joining late, but she's glad she caught the live. And do you seal your MDF prior to painting it? No, Jason, we just paint right over it. We just paint right on it. We use that exterior house paint. And we have a... I'm doing a second test sign. I just left it out in the parking lot for the last month. And it looks good. It's painted with the regular paint that we use. Somebody, it was a bird house, the welcome bird house, and somebody glued it together and put the wrong perches on the wrong houses. So I stole it and that was going to get my test sign. So I just left it out in the parking lot for the last month. And it looks pretty good. Very little swelling. It's been in the rain. We've had some torrential downpours. Well, you know, about every Tuesday, we're like, oops, it's raining. It's afternoon rains. You're okay. I'm okay. I just feel complaining. It's the elephant on my chest. It's annoying. I feel like if I had to huff and puff and blow somebody's house down, I couldn't do it. Well, that's interesting. I mean, I didn't really have that issue. Really? Just a lot of congestion. I'm breathing okay. It's the old heavy chest that's annoying to me. And that was the thing with Grace. Grace kept saying, it's just allergies. Yeah. We were like, I guess we caught your allergies. It's just allergies. Because she's like, can I go to the game? I thought you were sick. No, it's just allergies. But she had to come home from school because she was sick. But then when it's time to go to the game, it's allergies. I know your game, girl. Girl, you're number six. You're not fooling anybody. Karen, this is what we're making today. Oh, turn it this way. It's a stacked H.O.M.E. I mean, you guys have probably seen those everywhere. I love them. I just don't have... I have our own version of that. And you know what was exciting? When I went to make this file, we actually had the font. All I had to do was scroll down. I was like, there's no way we have this font. I'm going to have to go find this font. And then there it was. I was like, oh my gosh, this is so exciting. Yeah. I download all kinds of fonts. So much easier. Every time I log into the fonts, they have those like... Here's five new ones. I always download those. I'm a sucker for a new font. I don't know that I've seen that. Really? Yeah, when you first go to Default, if you go to default.com, that first screen that pops up, it's like, hey, here's five new ones. There's five popular ones, whatever it is. I just go download, download, download. Download, download, download. I'm a font slut. You know what I want to do with this one is put some DTF on it. I know you're listening. Yeah. I want a DTF to back. I think that would be cool. If you put a pattern behind each letter and then a pattern over top, that would be cool. Double pattern? Definitely. I'm in on the double pattern. We have some new door sign workshops. And out of the last five registrations, three of them have been the Hello Fall with the leopard print DTF behind it. Oh, those things went quick. At the show? At the show. Yeah, tell them to be killing me. Yeah, she keeps asking for this. I haven't put them in the store. The DTF for her so that she can do this for some. I'll put the DTF behind that. Yeah, add that as an option to that one, you know. Oh, I can add it to the file. Oh, I guess they'll need a DTF printer. Well, they know, but I can add, like I can... Oh, we'll send them the print? Yes. Gotcha. Do we want to add that? One more thing to our plate. I tell you, we can sure tell Fall is here. Things are getting busy. We're kind of crazy right now. Man, I closed my laptop at 10.30 last night to go to bed. At 8.30 this morning, I'm opening it up. Getting working again. I only slept. Well, and we're thankful the store is busy too. Yeah. Tanner's doing the one to nine shift. We're working in shifts. Oh, we're working in shifts. We're so busy. Which is great because I was getting scared. We need it. We need it. All right. I'm going to start getting my resume together. We'll scoop ice cream. I know. I don't want to go back to my regular job. I don't want to keep doing this job. This is my job. There's no going back. I burned my boats. Would Valspar exterior paint do as good asking because it's a little cheaper? You know what? I would say absolutely yes. This is just kind of craft project. The internet weather is well on its own. So any kind of exterior house paint. I mean, honestly, I think the interior latex would work. Yeah. Anything but chalk paint or something that will, like chalk paint just lacks like a sponge on the outside of your project. So I would say anything not chalk paint or porous, I think you'd be good with. Because I left that DTF print out there raw. You know, the rest of the board was raw and it barely puckered. I think you'd be okay. I do too. I'm seriously considering swapping from the exterior paint to the interior paint. But I just haven't done a good test on that one yet. I need to paint a board and just leave it out there. Yeah. Let's do it. Let's do it. I don't want to know. I hope I said that right. You can correct me. Greetings. What paints do you use on your cut parts? Same exterior paints as backing. Yep. Yep. Same exterior paints. And we will actually have our own paints available shortly. We are working with a supplier now. And hopefully in the next month or so. Garrett is telling secrets. That's our surprise to you guys. Yeah, it was going to be a surprise. I just let the cat out of the bag. You sure did. You sure did. I hope it in your big mouth. That's what we're working on. That's what we're working on. I don't know. I think these people, these are our friends. They're okay with it. You won't tell anybody. Jerry says thanks for the hustle Garrett. Are there any corporate spies out there? Don't be stealing my paint. Don't be stealing my paint idea. And in what instance would you use 8 inch MDF in door rounders? I can't find 8 inch. Yeah. I would totally use 8 inch for these top pieces. Yeah, totally. It just makes it a little less heavy, but I can't find the 8 inch in anything that I can order in bulk quantity that makes it reasonably priced. I think they do have it at Lowe's or Home Depot. It was Home Depot. Well, I don't know. They had that. You're talking like hardboard, but not that. Bucks, don't use it. And we tried the birch. The birch is okay, but we were getting the like 5 by 5 sheets of birch and they were so wavy. You couldn't really get the wave out till you cut them down to almost it was like 18 inch by 18 inch before we could finally get it to lay flat on the laser bed. And at that point I don't know. I'd rather just cut a quarter inch MDF. It's flat. Throws in there. Cuts nice. I didn't hit any pockets. There's no glue pockets. And for us, we don't really use the plywood because I like the smoother finish. I like the smoother look in ours without the plywood. Carlos says yes, add it to the files as well. And that's the bumpkin piece. The DTF piece. That's a print. Somebody's got to remind me though. Lois says over 50 watching. Hit that thumbs up. Showing him and K&G's in love. What is up? Welcome back. Here, I'll hit this thing. Hit the thumbs up. Subscribe. Give me a thumbs up. If you're not yet subscribed, you should subscribe. Come hang out with us every week. Twice a week. And if you're a patron, like three times a week. You can get them all around. Like this to kind of match them. Sure. Oh, then what's the stem? The stem is still going to be the green. Back green? Yeah. Carol says what orange is that? That's knockout orange Carol. Knockout orange. Showing Williams knockout orange. I'm excited because we get to make up our own color names. So you have them mixed by a store. We do. Yeah, we currently have them mixed by a store. But what we're working on is mixing them ourselves. Mixing them ourselves. We're going to bring it in-house. I'm getting a mixer. And a dispenser. Going in-house. Adding yet another job. Yeah. Isn't that exciting? One more thing to do. Yay, another job. Another tool to repair. Yeah, it's our repairman. Our designer. Yes, our repairman. Designer. Marketing guru. Maybe not so much. Oh, you purchased a Happy Halloween. Janitor. Everyone loves it. Even with me making it. It looks great. The SVG file. Yes, I remember. Yep. Chris says she's been... She can't find it locally. She's buying it from Etsy Sellers. The eighth-inch MDF. Yeah, I can't. I don't know where they're finding it. She'd like to find it cheaper. Yeah, I'd sure like to know where they're getting it. What is scoring wood and what does it do? Scoring wood. Do I have something that's scored? I can show you. So it's just marking the wood. It's like not cutting all the way through. You can score various depths. But it just leaves marks on the wood or light cuts. There's a score mark right there. You could hold that up. See that? No, hold it real still. Pull back a little bit towards you. No, not down. Right here. See, that's a score mark right there between the bottom of the pumpkin and the E. It's leaving a line so we can see where to put the pumpkin back. But it's not cut all the way through. Yeah, it's not cut all the way through. I just use it for light markings on the board so I'll know where everything goes back. Now I've heard people use frames and use cardboard frames and everything like that. But we've tried it. I've tried it all. And the easiest, fastest way to do it is just to use score marks and glue. That's the fastest way for me. You are your own person. Do what you want. What's the difference between scoring and engraving? Scoring and engraving. So the score is just a mark. It's just like a cut line. It's a line where as an engrave is where it will do multiple passes removing material. Yes, leaving... Oh, hold on. I got something to show you for engraving. Oh, you want me to take care of that? Want me to take it over on that? I feel like you're pushing a little hard trying to get done with it. Whoa! Oh, Jason told her to look up scoring as tracing the image on the top of wood to align the pieces. There you go. Good job, Jason. It's way more proficient than I said it. This is an engraving. See how it removed the stuff, the material and left it. So what I did here is I painted it gold. I came actually painted it. Then I masked it. Then I engraved the way the stuff I didn't want. And now before I removed the masking I spray painted it black and now when I remove the black masking there should be gold left everywhere. But he's got to spray it again. I ran out of spray paint. So I can't show you. Just use your imagination. What size is the home sign? 18 inches. Still 18 inches from top to bottom, right? And I don't know what the width is. It's about 18 inches. It's about square. Because it fit in the same area as the door round on the laser. I bet Jerry said she wished they had more options in Alaska for supply. It's a paint of the butt trying to source materials. Oh, yeah. Alaska sure is a paint of the butt. Oh, look Jerry. Jerry knew. She said Garrett that is awesome. Is that from the Virginia State Seal? Yeah, that is from the Virginia State Seal. It's another military sign we were asked to do. And the last military sign was so tough. There were so many little pieces that I decided to brave away this time instead of trying to put it back together. But I tried to go with a deep engraving so that it still looked He's very excited about it. I can't wait to see how this looks. But did you see that engraving? That is what took four hours. Well, yeah. There was that and then some leaves. There's a laurel wreath that goes, it's a leaf wreath that goes around the outside of this one. It's not really from the seal, but it is a Virginia thing, yes. Oh, it's Air National Guard. That's what it was. Air National Guard. What mm is it, please? Millimeter? I'll have to do the math. Wait, millimeter thick? You should be. That's amazing. Oh, yes. Yeah. Millimeters. I don't know if she means thick? It's quarter inch thick. What is it, millimeters? I could do the math real quick. Hey, Alexa. What's quarter inch in millimeters? Wait, what? That made no sense. There's a lot of zeros in that one. I could look it up. Yeah. I think it's like five. 6.35. That was close. Now, I remember learning five millimeters. The metric system? There's a fly in here, the carrot. My nemesis completely focused on. He taunts me. He taunts me all the time. I see we have three glue bottles over there. I think they're from last week. Are they all empty? He goes... No. This one's like a third fold. This one's like a fifth fold. We're good. All right. I'm going to lay this on there and see if we're still looking good. I'm going to lay them all out. See if I like the way they look. You're each... Oh, sorry, I've got the frame. Does that need another cut? Blam, blam. Look at that. I don't know. I don't know if I like the... Brown. Yeah, I would do. Oh, great job. Yeah. Let me do it this way. All right, so we know we've got the orange pieces to go back in here. But what do we think of the brown? Do you think the brown should be another color? And if it should, what color should it be? I tried black. That was too dark. Too dark. I did an example with... Uh... I'm afraid that the... the stripes, the red stripes on the E might look a little American flaggy. I'm not trying to do that either. Yeah. So that's why I was looking at this one. Maybe go with a green. Yeah. I was just thinking like this green. What do you think? For this? Yeah. All right, we're going to mix that real quick. Should I start gluing these pieces? Oh, Andrea's got a good question. Everybody's... Everybody's... Everybody's... Are you reading it? I don't want to say the word. Everyone's Amazon device answered as well. Oh, my apologies. I didn't even think about that. She's mine. Nobody else has one. That lady is my lady. That's so funny. She only listens to me half the time. Yeah. A little shade of green. All right, me too. Everybody's went off. Sorry. Did everybody get the correct answer? Because I don't know what I answered. I said something crazy. It did. There was multiple decimal places. A lot of zeros. I'm using a starbound thick glue to glue it all together. That is our jam. Use 99% of the time. Carol said her machine stopped cleaning all the way through. She didn't know what to do. So she ended up... I think it says relaxing, but it might be realigning all the mirrors. Yeah. And it's back to cutting like butter. Yep. Clean the lenses. Clean the mirrors. Do a realign. Tanner got in deep. Tanner was even doing a bed readjustment. Are you making sure the bed is flat? I guess horizontal. All right. I didn't like the brown. We're going to change it up to green. Let's see how that looks. I'm going to catch that fly. Right now. It's happening. Wait, I think I did. No, you just flew this way. Okay. Dang, he's a little bit faster than me. Go free. Does your white paint ever turn yellow when you're done painting the MDF? Mine does. How can I fix that I see it when there is burn marks after it's cut? Oh. What are you cutting it on? Hold on. Are you cutting it on the glow forge? I'd say basket. It is so hard to paint over those that char mark. It like bleeds through no matter what. And we do if we're on the glow forge, if we don't mask it, which most of the time, 99% of the time we do mask it. It's almost like that char gets oily and the paint separates over top of it. If we don't mask it, we will sand it before we paint it. Sand that off. And on our larger lasers, our cam fives, we should basically the fender laser put another importer. I upgraded the air assist to the like, what do you call it thing? Someone brain did. It's like the air compressor with the tank. And I run about 20 to 25 PSI through the laser head. And that gives me no char. It comes out pretty clean. And it's been keeping my laser bed clean or two. I don't have to clean that as often. Shannon wants to know if the colors we use are on Patreon. They are. You should see them. Go back through the post. As a matter of fact, it just happened to see them earlier this week. I was looking for something and I saw that post. So I know it's there. Oh, look, Cheryl Tickle2Cann says hello, hello. She hasn't caught us in weeks. Hello, Tickle2Cann. It's been crazy busy when you totally get it. We were just talking about that. I'm glad you're too busy to join then. Although you can just put us on. Tickle2Cann says, yep, Glowforge. What's so great is now all of our friends out here are helping answer the questions before I even get to them. It's like great. It's because everybody's becoming their own expert. Pretty soon we will be obsolete. They'll be all grown up. All right, what do you guys think of the green? Is that better? They'll be the boys and girls. It's hard to see. Hey, what did you switch the view to? Overhead. Oh, my bad. Yeah. I guess it's the E. It's the stripes and the E. I don't know. Maybe it shouldn't be red. It should be green. And the leaves should be red. I don't need the brown. Can you paint? Can you cut me another one before I take final pictures of this one? Or do you want me to take the time to swap them out? Now I asked for two of them. I tried to cut two of them earlier. That's when I had to do all the maintenance. But there should be two of them out there. Better to go. Another one over there. All right. Well, if you guys are watching, I don't think the E should be in this red stripe. To me, it's looking too much like a flag. And I don't want that. Yeah, you don't want anybody walking up the steps and trying to salute your home sign. Like, go on, get out of here with that. Well, I think if these could be red, the leaves can be red and the E should be green. Kind of like I did it here. I don't know why you second-guessed yourself. Well, you told me you liked it better red until we saw it. Oh, well, that's because I thought my choices were brown or red. Or green or red. And I don't always give a poppier color. The more peacockier, the better. Yes, that's for sure. Oh, Clunar emailed us our 8 inch 3mm MDF source if needed. Oh, nice. It is needed. What masking tape do you guys use? It should be in our Amazon store, so if you go... I think it's ULINE. No, it's definitely not ULINE. No, it's not. Yeah, ULINE Blue Tape is good. It's just expensive to get it shipped. Which, by the way, if anybody isn't aware starting was it yesterday? Yes, yesterday the 12th for two weeks this week and next week. Uh-oh. I think these people are here to see us. Who? The people that just pulled up. Why are they here to see us? To pick up those letters. Oh, what letters? Anyway, sorry, ULINE is doing a sale. Oh. Here, let me, uh, let me step out. I was wondering if you guys were gonna come back. I was so busy, it wasn't even fun. I can imagine. Well, we're on a live video right now, so let's step out this way. Well, you can come around and say hey. I don't think he wants to say hi. Oh, I'm on it. You don't mind? I thought he was gonna come say hey. He's looking all cool. He's got his shades on. He could have popped in. I don't know about the ULINE sale, so we'll wait for him to get back. I suppose she can inform us of the sale. Yeah, we do, um, so the question was 8-inch MDF needs two coats or it looks blotchy sometimes. Now, I personally like to go with a thick coat, but Kim always puts two coats on. Alright, yeah, if it looks blotchy. Alright, what I like to do with the lighter colors is I'll put a first coat down of white. Like if I'm using the lighter color. I'll coat the MDF in white first for the first color. Not like a good coat, just enough to cover the board. And then I'll come in with the second color. It usually looks better, less blotchy. I think we're coming back in. Maybe he wants to come in and be on the show. What's happening? A little tiny piece of the bat. Oh, here it is. Oh, you're missing the bat pieces. She actually has it open. She does her live right now. Oh! I heard me talking about his cool shades. There's a bunch of people out there now. Who's it brown? A glove? Good job, Kim, good job. Hey, if she's watching. Do you want to come say hey? Do you want to come say hi to everybody? I would never say hi to anybody. I have black on my finger. That's... Give her a quick little touch-up. Nobody will ever know that I have my black finger all over it. We're still waiting to hear about that U-Live sale. And now I just got the... This is going to be a whole thing. Right, touch up the back. Then I have to touch up the frame. Whoa! 15 hours at work. Jeez. Alright, everything seems to be down. I'm putting my pumpkin pieces in now. Kim's hanging out. Pardon me, sheesh. Man, this is why I love the frame pieces. I don't really need to have to try to paint them. Cleanly. Frame hides all my mistakes. Sorry. Sorry, I'm listening to what's being said outside. I'm eusedrap. Can you guys hear it? Is it that? Like that sensitive? I was wondering if they hear what you guys are saying. I could hear you, I couldn't hear that one. I'm so loud. Alright, sorry you guys. I was able to finish it all up. You left, you were telling them about the U-Line. Yeah, so U-Line, sorry. U-Line is having a sale. Free shipping for the next two weeks. This week and next week. So if there's something you want from U-Line, you know it's a good price. Now's a great time to get it. We're certainly going to be picking up some items because shipping is super expensive for the boxes that we order, that we ship our stuff in. And shipping is usually $200, so it'll save us a ton of money and I'm excited about that. So I thought I'd pass that along. I hope Garrett was reading some of your comments. Okay, let's see. Heavenly's End Designs. Question for anyone? My glow forge kept stopping, needing to cool down seconds after starting it. Hey, mine was doing that too. Mine will also pause. I don't know what it was. I thought my filter was dirty. Two days later, I got a return email that they reset something. I didn't even know they could see anything when I let them reset something. What don't I know? I don't know, that's a good question. What can they see? What can't they see? What can they reset or mess with? I don't know how they could mess with anything. It's on your network, right? But it reaches out to their servers. Good point. It does reach out to their servers. I mean, if I were a cybersecurity person, I wouldn't let that open my joint. Okay. I notice you don't second coat a lot. LOL. On the lives, we are less likely to do a second coat like this orange. We always second coat. So, you should too. The painter is here second coat. Yes. The orange looks like it does need a little bit of a second coat. I thought it looked authentic. I thought it looked like a real watermelon that way. But sometimes if it looks good after one coat, I don't bother. But usually we second coat most things. Browns, sometimes blacks you don't have to. But the lighter colors definitely need a second coat. Oh, yeah. I was saying, for the lighter colors, I like to start with a white base. What did you say? Because somebody here says we won't tell Kims to smudge it. LOL. I don't know what they're talking about. What is that person even talking about? You can't tell. I can't tell. Is that all premixed exterior put in those containers? Source for containers? The FIFO bottles. Yep, you can find the FIFO bottles. These are FIFO bottles. And you can find them on our website. Or the FIFO bottles. Are they FIFO bottles? Are they coming to America? FIFO. Right? What did you say? FIFO. Yes. I think someone wrote that here. Jerry wrote back. So I noticed the white on the edges. Do you paint or Sharpie that? Or leave it? You can see what he's doing right now. Sharpie and right down the sides. But not always. You can leave it with that white line showing. She does. I don't. He would prefer not to, but when you're painting 100 signs for a craft show I don't get to go back and clean that up. I just make sure that that white line is nice and straight and perfect. If there's any other kind of smudge I will get rid of that. Dottie loves our project today. Thank you, Dottie. Thank you, Dottie. Are you making one, Dottie? Jerry says don't use too much pressure when painting the back of the board and you won't get that bleed on the edge. Wow. When you can edge it with black paint pen if necessary. Yes. Same thing we always tell Gary. Presses too hard so it oozes over the sides. Kim doesn't have that white line like I do. And then Rhea says, yep, great tip about you, Line. Thank you. Sorry I didn't get that out earlier. I use a makeup sponge cut down and paint the edges black easier than a Sharpie. Yes, that's a great fast way. What ribbons will you use on this one? Oh, Lois, let me show you. Let me show you. Almost looks like three layers with that white. Yes. Fififo thumb. Thumb bottles. Where can we purchase the design or cut out? You can get them on our website kngmakeit.com We just added these items. Did you set them all active? I think so. We'll just double check. I already added them to the store. I can check on my phone even. I'm pretty sure because I put the link in the description. But I didn't give it to the patrons yet. I'll do that after this. I forgot. Let me get my ribbon. Let me show you some of this pretty ribbon I have. Oh, I'm just giving you a ribbon. What kind of ribbon is it? I've got a different one. She's got so many ribbons. She's got so many good ribbons. She's got a ribbon你是 a ribbon hoarder. And if we pass ribbon, just to price check it. And there's a good chance we're buying it. Why price check it if we're buying it? It's ridiculous. I know it's ridiculous. She collects ribbons like I put bold parts. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Look at these. Can you see these? Aren't they so cute? It's got leopard print pumpkins on them I think I'm gonna put that on there because of the teal. I also have this one that's got buffalo clad and leopard print Get out of here. I have this is the one that fell on my on the way in That little got a little crazy. Oh, you want to tell them something that we noticed that the craft show this weekend Whatever sign I was working on or painting Sell before I was done painting. Yeah, hold on. Let me show in these look this cute leopard print One more and then I'm done and look at this one. I don't know if you can really tell There's my overhead button says overhead overhead PIP this one Can you see that that has? Glitter in it. Look at that. Isn't that cute? so I think these are the Ribbons, I think I'm gonna put on there. I don't I don't know for sure, but we'll see that's what I think That's what I want to put on there and Yes, let me tell you that little story so we were selling It just says welcome a sign that says welcome and then it has like a scroll pattern on the top and a scroll pattern on the bottom and It was orange with a stained backer. It was kind of a boring sign It's sold before but this weekend it wasn't selling at all. We had next to everything else It was looking a little flat. Yes next to everything else You're right because we had so many other great ones with lots of interest to them And this one was just not even multi layer just the the layer of welcome and the scroll layer So Garrett was like look we gotta do something with that sign And so he decided he was gonna use a little of this like teal color And some dark silver. Yeah, so orange. Yep and he added it he dabbed it all over it and made it like a rust color and Every time he was working on it as he was working on it people would stop and watch him paint it and then He did three of them and all three of them sold while he was working. I'll take that one. I'll take that one So my little tip to you is you know tinker was a sign. Yeah You know paint this dab something on there paint a sign Bring a semi-finished sign with you to just kind of for a couple of them to kind of finish up while you're there Give it a little maybe that's when you come in and give it the special paint jobs, you know Just let them see you working on your craft because we were getting a lot of questions like ooh Do you make these? Mm-hmm? And then when we they saw me working on them Let's have that question Let's questions about do you make these and more of a ooh, what's he doing there? Can I buy that one now? Well, and while he was painting them I was busy trying to figure out what the new bow was going to be it was some like this actually and And while I was doing the bows then they were I think they were really they could really see we made them like I was making the ribbon right the bow right in front of them and Garrett was doing the painting So that was a good little tip. I pass along. I think I'm seeing us actively making them I don't know Kim just left Garrett alone again. I Don't know the same so I just start Saying things. Yeah, I get worried when I leave alone because he will just ramble. I Hate the silence Mona says my husband I love watching the lies But anytime our son walks through and sees us watching you He moans and groans because he knows we will be doing another new project Yes Well, you should start looping him in roping them in he'll really love it, right? Jerry says that organized all my ribbon this weekend. I was told I cannot buy anymore until it's gone I will die before that happens Right, I might see another new ribbon that you need they can be oh, you know This ribbon would be great for perfect for this time. I hear that. Is that from craft club? No, I think I think Let's see. I think I got this one from you get craft outlet. I think you got it from craft outlet Karla loves the ribbons. Oh, and I put ribbon holes in this thing, too Put them at the top of the And then the oh Cluner is the is the the guy who you know who it is The retired vet His wife wanted him to get a hobby which that was so entertaining for us we We both appreciated the comment we appreciated you sharing with us.
