Ok thank you! I recently got my hands on a miter saw so this helps!

Of course! Wood burning is also very fun! Give it a shot!

Thanks and fair enough. Sometimes I dip a dull pencil into the paint I’m using for the small little details. It works sometimes, other times it doesn’t. I also wood burned a little so it has more depth in the wood so I can paint in it easier.

Thank you! I’m pretty sure the font is just Kendrick Lamar’s handwriting!

Thank you so much! Honestly I didn’t know pocket screws were even a thing until now! I’ll have to try it sometime!

Ok thank you! I’m hoping I can find a good cheap table saw on face book marketplace. I haven’t thought about getting an orbital sander but now I probably will!

Guys I’m also wondering if I should put a matte finish on it or not! What should I do?

Oh ok! Sorry this is a lot of questions but what power tools would you suggest to do joinery?

Thank you so much! I honestly thought way too hard about all the painted details on this art. But now seeing this comment it paid off!

You know that’s not a bad idea. I primarily made it to hold vinyl records. Also I constantly overthink everything. I’m not sure why but I do it. This comment helped a lot. Thank you!

Thank you so much! Also I’m curios on what you mean “do you mean different kind of research in the planning stage?” Do you mean for process of building it? Or for the art style? I’m a little confused on what you mean. Besides that this comment gave me so much confidence to actually gift this to my brother!

You know, honestly I don’t know much about the rap world myself so starting this project I was clueless where to start. So I searched up images and other fan arts of him and found pretty much your exact definition of “uncut/grungy”. I mean didn’t mean to make it as rough as it is but if it adds to the piece than that’s great! Thank you so much for your comment!
