    Great presentation, though the technique adds hundreds of points to the object. Maybe a less "destructive" technique would be more efficient?

    Use path finder and press "alt" to create compound path, that should sort out your issues!

    Hey Will. Love your tutorials. 1 question about this process. I got everything right – including the same exact texture – but when I went to go apply the texture with the button under the pathfinder tab it did so. But it left the remaining texture around the the vector image. My question is: How do I get rid of that?

    Thank you for all of your hard work, Will.

    Can this be done to normal images and shapes as well? I've attempted to do so but I always get this. "The filter produced no results. Please select two Intersecting paths."
    Any help?

    How do I make this on a text? What needs to be done to that text for this to work? If I do it like in this video, an error comes up.

    I did it with 1 letter, I made it have outlines, then with a full word like "grandma" it just deletes all letters and makes it work on only the letter G…

    I'm just curious why don't you use the transparent panel (masks) instead?

    What if your anchor was white and it had a black background? How would you texture the background as well?

    Will, how did you make the "texture shape" that you pasted in? I would really like to learn how to do my own.

    I commented earlier from Grayson RECC, I see now what I was doing wrong, it was when I was grouping the letters.  I found my mistake by watching one of your other videos and it was mentioned in that to not group.  These tutorials have been very helpful!!!! Thanks!

    Hi Will, great tutorials!  I did this on a shape and it worked out fine.  However, I tried it on text and it didn't work for me.  I changed my text to outlines, then I placed the texture on top and used the minus front button but it deleted everything except the first letter of the word.  What am I doing wrong?

    Didn't work. Apparently none of the paths intersected.

    Hi Will! I hope you're well — and I hope you receive this message sooner than later as I'm actively working on this project! I have been using the grunge that you provided…and was doing great things with it.  Suddenly, I can't seem to use the technique you taught here and I have NO idea what changed, or perhaps if I'm deselected an option, etc. 

    The design (see the link) is text that I've compiled and edited, I've outlined the text, and used it punch out the circle shapes, etc etc.  However, when I go to punch the grunge texture through, it won't work.  Both the grunge layer and the underlying texture are selected.  Am I missing something vital?? HEEEEEEELP!!

    Thanks for sharing this is so helpful tutorial.
    Anyways, I just learnt we can use Clipping Mask (just like what we do with Photoshop) too for the same result without destroying the original object.

    When I select all my objects and hit minus from front nothing happens? (It's two rectangles with the vectors over the top).
