Thank you Step one we need to gather all of our snowflake supplies So we're gonna need for my project. I'm gonna need one one by two and Two fence pickets He had those balancing on his knee and for mine I need Three one by floors and a one by two Step two Makeover cuts This one was a tricky one, but since we did our star like two weeks ago. I'll put that video right here Yeah, we learned how to make angles even sharper angles than we knew the miter saw could do First I measured out all of the boards, but I remember to leave an inch just for mistakes Then I made all of those cuts. I cut all of my boards to about the approximate length. They'll be I Took a scrap 2 by 4 and a scrap 2 by 6 to make a guide I pinned them together at the bottom and Then I put them on my miter saw. I set the blade to 30 degrees 30 I made my cut I Set the blade back to zero then I position the board so that the blade cuts Just to the left of center then I flip the board and make the same cut Bam 60 degree point I did the same thing with the 1 by 3s But I had to use a scrap piece of 2 by 4 to set as a stop block so it wouldn't go too deep Bam 60 degrees and then I cut the little Snowflake wing tips and I just cut the corner off that I slid the guide in so it just cut the corner off I Said a stop block up to all the correct lengths and I cut all my 1 by 4s And all my 1 by 2s and my little snowflake wing tips Finally, I had to make my diamonds. So I moved the blade over to 45 Made my first cut use that piece to measure my second cut And then I used that first diamond to lay down the Template for all of my other cuts and I went ahead and cut 12 of these diamonds out step a three assembly We're gonna bring it all together We'll do Kim's first since hers is a Little more intricate. I got a lot going on. She's got a lot of pocket holes big dreams We're gonna put pocket holes and all of her little wing tips And all of her main snowflake pieces I guess let's start pinning it together see if it works. That was a great idea with the pocket holes All right, that's what we've got so far Little pocket hole pattern I love the Craig Jake because we're about to hide all of these screws. Yes, everything's completely hidden You're gonna do anything working You're definitely gonna start with a Craig Jake. We did That's the backside with all the pocket holes in it. Look at that. That looks so good There you go, there's without the pocket holes Pretty cool, huh? Yes, I drew on it down there. Don't do it. You can do it. I'm gonna put mine together now Now we're doing my snowflake Get to vote again, which one you better? Oh, yeah, another voting thing our kids have already told us which ones they like which one they like better Mine's very diamond-esque Do you want me to glue them? Yeah, I just threw some glue in there. Oh, you don't want me to glue them together. Oh Yeah, I guess I'm just gonna use this little piece here Tackle them all together I got my three-quarter inch bread Go ahead. The nail not the guy and no battery Tripping you out now all of my little diamonds Yes, yeah, let's measure that. Let's make them consistent Now that I'm done playing around you don't plan around I swap out Big bread for a little bread Going in with a little bread It is sparse snowflake my snowflake Very diamond-esque two coats of paint on mine. I'm coming in with a blue and then I'm gonna come in with a white and Mine's gonna be a dirty snowflake. I'm coming in with truffle and then putting white on top And then we're gonna distress it. Oh, yeah, then we're distressing and my white right on top He's still working. He's got like tons of paint. I can't tell you how wet this thing is. It's chalk paint. It dries That's why I like it. It dries fast. We're good any heat gun. We're gonna distress it. Well, she's gonna distress hers And I'm gonna try the dry brush technique So I have the brown with a coat of white coat of white is real thin So I can just stand right through it. You like today's video hit or leave us a comment You got a vote remember we're voting mine's manageable and hers is a monstrosity Kind of know it was going to be this big but now it's it's just still big.
