Nice work mann!! any chance of you posting a vid on making multicolored stars? love to see how you get them so round and even in size!!

Keep up the great work!

[vh718]

@greatkid1 i just use simple screens to get them all the same size

[greatkid1]

@vh718 when you do colour changing stars do you use star cores (cut / pumped) or do roll them as well? if you roll them do you wait till the first comp dries before adding the second?

Thanks

[vh718]

@greatkid1 everything is rolled. i roll the first comp to the right size then let em dry. after dying i add the second comp until they are the desired size. 

[greatkid1]

@vh718 thanks for the reply, one last question, what size do you roll the stars for a three inch shell?

[vh718]

@greatkid1 i use slightly larger than 5/16" or 8mm stars.

How do you add the stuff in the roller like the chems

[XxPyRoBeAsTzxX]

wat kind of core do u use

[vh718]

@XxPyRoBeAsTzxX mustard seed

[XxPyRoBeAsTzxX]

@vh718 i tried that they just clumped up

[vh718]

@XxPyRoBeAsTzxX you have to add a little bit of star mix first, then pray with solvent. spray as little water as possible or they will clump. it takes practice.

clean setup.. i like it

[Hector49er]

That's not 60-70 RPM... looks closer to 90-100 at least.

whats the head of the thing on the drill?

because i cant get mine to turn, its as if there is no grip to turn the bucket?

[vh718]

@raining0724 um i went to lowes and found a random piece of circular rubber (it was like a door stop or something). then i drilled a hole through it to attach it to the drill. i guess i was just lucky. any piece of rubber will work.

[pyrocrazy321]
