I’ve never seen any of your HOW-TOs before but I’m quite impressed and looking forward to building my own. The only thing I’m unsure of is the plastic material you used to make the handle if you could clarify that for me it would be wonderful !!!! Everything else was quite clear thank you for such a concise easy to follow solution to a problem I have been having for quite some time. I subscribed to your page and I’m looking forward to viewing the rest of your tutorials

It's just called a "sign holder" on Amazon, I think it's just made of a thinner acrylic than the first Acrylic sheet I used! I had it lying around at the time, but I think I bought it on Amazon for my booth back in the day! Something like this: www.amazon.com/SourceOne-Slant-Back-Sign-Holder-Portrait-Style/dp/B007TK567Q/ref=br_lf_m_zy6n89po6jg69ur_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&s=office-products

Great effect. Only thing I can really criticize is using the same soldering tip for both melting the plastic as well as soldering the circuit. For circuits you would remove/cover the tinning on the tip that helps transfer the heat to easily solder your circuits. Tips for soldering irons are pretty cheap; just let it cool before changing.

I've seen by best friend create a ball of visible air with his bare hands. He would throw it against the wall and it would explode in every direction. There was 4 other witnesses. He did it about 50 times. He did it so many times that we got bored with it. We were tripping on magic mushrooms but there was 4 other people so it's not just me. It was about 20 years ago. I dont know how he did it but he did. He doesn't know how he did it either. There's no such thing as a group hallucination. Believe it or not. I know that stuff is real.

@HendoArt 2 жыл бұрын

@@jendubay3782 Tea lights are far too dim to show up on camera or outside in daylight. Cotton batting with my lights would be fine but batting tends to obscure light too much (I'd recommend tulle). As well, the painting method is meant to match Bordlands' art style. Tubing orbits I assume are something you'd accomplish with a similar product (essential to Maya's orb). "Spare plastic" would still be en expense to anyone without it, and acrylic has the best blend of heat-shapeable and sturdy. And like I state on the video, you can still have the switch inside the orb, but it's it's terrible pain to turn on and off at conventions, and melting takes like 2 mins. Your method is quite popular on countless other casual tutorials though, I'd imagine everyone who watched this video has seen that method before 😅. This one is for the cosplay community ✌
