Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe speaker is preparing and cutting material for a project, focusing on maximizing the shape and material usage rather than the figure or grain alignment. After completing several cuts, the speaker considers how to use the remaining pieces but decides to postpone the decision.
All right so now on to this thing. I got it up there. I got it kind of rolled out as best I can.
There's no crotch figure or anything in this so it doesn't really matter what the
roll angle is as far as figure goes. I'm just trying to maximize I guess the material and the
shape so keeping these things down there aligned even though that kind of throws off things down
here traditionally because the piths aren't aligned but it doesn't matter because we're
going for shape. There's no figure to go for. All right let's cut it. All right well there's
what I have so far. All this. I have those two still left but I don't really know what I want
to do with them yet. I have enough cookies already so I don't really feel like making
more of those and they're like the shortest ones of the bunch so I don't know if I want to make
more thick stuff or what. I don't know. I'm gonna procrastinate on making that decision I guess.
