Luke's Juggling Tutorials #001 - Making Colour Changing Rings

[thejugglerkid]

i would do this except i'm terrified of terrified of stanley knives. once i was working on my juggling balls with a stanley knife my finger got sliced pretty badly i went into full blown shock all in all that was the worst day of my life hence why im scared of stanleys

Great tutorial, one question though: what if you just spray painted one side of the ring? it seems like that would have the same effect and would be a lot easier to do, but I'm sure there's a reason you don't just do that? i guess it would be more permanent but i bet this sticky papers tough to get off also

@RJSzubay516 I have sets of rings that are spray painted. It doesn't work that creat, but was really handy when I needed the rings coloured in a hurry before a show! The paint doesn't stick. Maybe if you have paint designed for plastic it would work better... but does spray paint for plastic exist? Or does it need primer and then a coat of wax and varnish? I didn't experiment too much.

@lukeburrage paint needs a rough surface to stick on, try roughing it up a little with some wet and dry paper,

This is a brilliant idea! Have you juggled with them long enough to see if they deteriorate or rip with prolonged use?

[cocopops149]

Hey Luke!

Brilliant tutorial - really nice quality for a DSLR as well! Would certainly like to see more tutorials from you like this, unless you plan on starting back up with the podcast anytime soon? No matter, always good to see stuff from you - a true professional!

Many thanks

Mark

The Juggling Podcast is in limbo at the moment, so I'm thinking of concentrating on things like this: things that would be impossible to share via audio alone. And like the "Packing My Juggling Case" video from back in February.

I loved the Podcast - but the video how to's are very informative and helpfull - keep it up

[magicalmarkwatson]

Ah yes, I remember that packing video of yours as well - another interesting video! Well, like I say, keep the videos coming because we all love them!
