 What do you feel at my hamper dinner? I don't. I don't know how you're hungry. You just ate that hamburger helper. Oh. They were live. Oh. Hi, everyone. You know me. People are going to watch this video and go, yeah, hamburger helper does feel, yeah. I get hungry around this time. It just, it is. It just is. So, today we're going to do a flood coat on this piece that has been perchast. And also do review on this handy dandy gadget that I got in the mail today. It is by Istoyo. Mmm. I probably said that wrong. But it came in this handy dandy little tea tiny box. And it came with four of these bad boys in all number of different sizes. I guess it's two of these and two of these rather. And the this. And a little doohickey. The this and the that. Yeah, that's technical terms. And then a stand, which is red. If you guys have watched my channel any amount of time, you know that I always say the second million I make will be paying for someone to mix my resin for me. I'm hoping that this doohickey is going to be the next million. That well, it's going to be the next million for somebody if it works. And I'm just excited to try it out. I haven't even tried it yet. All I've done is make sure it has batteries. It takes four AAA batteries in here. And then the power button has three speeds and you can reverse it so you can go clockwise or counterclockwise. I don't know why. And then you have AI, which I am to me it means automatic because you can just set it and forget it. It will spend for four minutes and then turn itself off. So this doohickey has a little screw on the back and you can make it taller or shorter depending on how deep the cup or bucket is that you're going to be mixing in. And this thing has only $19 on Amazon. I went ahead and linked it down in the description box. If you click the little Amazon influencer affiliate link, it will take you to the shop, which has everything that we use that we don't carry in our own store that Amazon carries. And I went ahead and put this in today. So it's going to be our top, like the most recent addition. I said they go to that, to the Amazon thing. Can you search? Is there a search for everything that we have on there or you just have to scroll and find it? Like if they want to find the airbrush. You know, I don't know. I would be surprised if it doesn't have a search option, but I'm not sure. So once you figure out which size paddle you'll need, we're going to be mixing in this eight ounce. So I want to make sure that this fits all the way to the bottom of my cup if necessary. And this is obviously at this point, it's too high. You see? I'm going to loosen this up. And I don't want it to go all the way to the bottom. As of right now, my opinion of this is pretty good. I haven't used it yet, but if I had to make an improvement, I would have made these like silicone or rubbery, like paint mixing paddles. This is like rigid, rigid plastic, but it's plastic. So you can wipe it off with alcohol after you choose. I am going to put some alcohol or acetone into these and spin it to see if that cleans it. We'll see. You're just going to send a message saying, cancel this on your Christmas list. It's going to be in your Christmas list. Is it really? Oh, it's that much delay. So let's make some resin. So we're going to mix the resin. I'm going to put some Milky Way in it. Laura Taylor. Is she up to that crazy stuff again? She is. I'm going to assume that you're YouTubing on Nyquil. And I love you so much, Laura. Thank you so much. I can't even hear it. This one just has a cheer on it. It's a little louder. But don't you just... I shouldn't be taking about. You should be taking about, Laura. Thank you. Thank you so much. It means so much to us. Every dollar that comes through the channel goes right back into the channel. And my heart is so full. Thank you. Thank you. I see where they say you look tan because you look tan. Do I look tan? You look a little tan today. It must be like warm lighting because you guys know that my vampire status is real. Okay. So maybe put these in and see what that looks like with these other things. Like a bigger cup. Some people like to see, you know. Sure. So that wider cup fits. Yep. But I would have done this other attachment. And so the attachments go in really easy. It's just like a wing situation. You're not going to be able to see it really like that. And so it just goes into this. That one's a little bit longer. So I need to loosen this up. This is definitely not the most sturdy plastic on this back. Rod? No? It's a little flimsy. But for $20, if you're not going to get wild and crazy with it, then this is great because I'm just, what we're going to do to start is I'm going to set this bad boy in there, test it on the four minutes and see what happens. So this is the fastest speed. Hold on y'all. Sorry for the movement. I don't see why it wouldn't be able to be used for paints, Mike. Ugh, I got distracted reading. I know Laura's amazing. JJ said, cool mixer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But can we talk about that amazeballs piece? Holy chit with a C-H-I-T Batman. Okay. So this is the fastest speed, which I don't even think you guys can tell. That's on my hand. And then this is the slowest speed. Hey, don't burn off the motor. I'm just trying to like... That's the mediumest fast. Slow. I just want them to see that it won't hurt somebody if they... Right. So, and then also you can hit a button and go counterclockwise and it does all three speeds again, which I don't know why, what it matters. And then you have to hold it down for a couple of seconds, turn it off. And every time it turns off, it makes that little beepy sound. And especially when you have it just on AI mode and it's just spinning solo. Yeah, we'll do the size. So I have before mixed resin and tried to do something on my phone in the meantime and let go of the bucket while I was mixing with like a power tool and said resin went everywhere. When I tell you everywhere, I mean on me, on a student, on the floor, on Rhonda's studio. I think I even got a wall. This is very impressive. So I'm wondering if this is going to do that as well. As a matter of fact, will you move the piece? You will have to scrape the sides and mix again for sure. I think it would be better silicone too, but they sent to full disclosure, they sent this to me to review. I didn't pay for it, but I know it is on Amazon for $19. Very exact same brand and everything. Tutor in the house. Tutor. Should you hold the cup? Well, I'm going to put it in there. Oh, I forgot to lower it. Boycat. I know you're not playing. So the bottom of this thing has like rubber pads. So the bottom of this thing has like rubber pads so it doesn't slide around very easy. And the bottom of this mat has like a rubbery base on it. Oh, it's kind of sticky sticky. Yeah, it's not like sticky. It just has like a little bit of like a grabby. Grab feel. Yeah. So I'm hoping it's not going to, I'm going to start it on the lowest. I'm going to hold it first. Okay, this is the lowest setting. I don't know if we should lower the, that. So that's the lowest setting. Oh. Sorry y'all. Me overreact. Maybe sometime. Sorry for all the movement y'all. So this is the slowest. Then let's hit the power button again to the mediumist. And on that setting, you can see it spinning the cup with it. So I'm kind of scared to see what this one will do. But here we go. It's not bad. Okay. So is it like keeping it? So I just kind of going to the outside. It like moves it back inwards. Yeah, it's kind of staying centralized. I was worried that it was going to hit the edges and like split the cup because it is kind of, it's pointy right there. And this is one of our thinner cups. So I was kind of expecting it to do some crazy. So right now I have it on the highest speed and I hit it on AI mode. So it should spin for four minutes. It's 606 right now. It recentered. I didn't touch it. But I was going to say it wasn't mixing what was up here because the paddle is all the way in the bottom. So maybe that's not the best thing to do. I wonder if I. Well, this is the thing that what would best be to show is to maybe put. Oh, it went in reverse. Something in there. What do you mean? Like pushing it up, like put a color in there and then it'll show you how much is being mixed. Yeah, but we're going to paint on that. So I figured out why it's important to do reverse because it's kind of like with a ceiling fan. You can reverse it to push air down or come back up because these are swirled like this. It's like pulling it back up. We don't really need to. Oh, there it went back. We don't really need to put anything in it because you can see the fishing line from the two parts being mixed together. Overachieving. I overachieve as well many. I mean, I overreact many times. And I exaggerate a lot. It looks like, what's up, Betty? Sorry, I'm going back and reading. Drink mixer. Yes, I imagine you could. This would save my hands. I'm looking for something that won't, that would work and won't break the bank. Hopefully this will work. I don't see it breaking the bank because it is only $20. It seems quality for $20. I don't have any complaints yet. We'll see. I'm going to scrape the sides once the four minutes is up. It keeps switching directions. It seems like every 30 seconds, which honestly I thought was a feature that was kind of stupid, but seeing how it changes the direction of the swirls in the resin, I can't talk smack about that anymore. Betty can wipe it off just like our stir sticks with an alcohol rag, or you can just spin it in alcohol or acetone. And in case it just got here, I already want it, right? So it's going back and forth in mixing. That might work, but I do see the issue of the upper level resin not getting mixed through. So it does seem like it's more mixed down here. I wonder if I should go ahead and maybe just grab the cup. Put it up to the middle. Grab the cup. Just leave that. Grab the cup and then pull that up just so that you're kind of... This? Yeah, because... But then I have to hold it up. Why don't I just... I know, but the whole point of it is so that you're not mixing yourself. So if you want to mix it, I'm just saying. So you're mixing it and then... That's all I'm saying. Right. But why don't I just... Because I'm worried about that. The cup flipping out. I'm just going to put it to half way up. I will advise... Oh, that was four minutes. That was not four minutes. That was three minutes. So if you guys look, maybe you guys can see what I'm looking at. You can still see it's kind of cloudy and you can see the swirl, like especially over here in this area. Where it's not fully incorporated. Maybe in the middle-ish? Yeah, I think in the middle-ish should be good. See that swirl right there coming off of the center. That is two parts of resin that aren't fully incorporated. And that's what I'm talking about when I say fishing line or angel hair. That swirl that doesn't melt into the rest of the... And you can see a lot of it down here too. So just since I'm going to remix it anyways. Ooh. Okay. I always do this when I pull my big mixer... Wiccat! When I pull the big... Ooh, mixers. Can you hear me? The something? What is the something? That... No. This. I'm just going to set that in there while I just scrape the edges. Even if that thing mixed this whole cup thoroughly, you would still need to scrape the edges and the bottom and your stir stick to make sure everything's fully incorporated. Oh, you turned it off? Yeah, but you just have to hold it down to turn it back on. If that was the only thing I had to do, Wiccat loves to lay on the merchandise. Was he in there? Yes. So even if that was all I had to do, I wonder if the big one would mix better. I don't want to get too of them dirty. So let's raise this to the middle. Also, don't mix where any part of the actual mixing paddle is out of the resin because that will make air bubbles into your resin. Just a little pro tippy tip. We learned that the hard way. Okay, you have to turn it on before pushing the AI button. And then it blinks to let you know that it's in AI or automatic mode. I'm going to let this go one more round before we just... That really looks like it's mixing, like... Mindy, send me a message on what brand your mixer is and let me know how you like it. Some people forget to show their appreciation. Well, hello, Dainty Dewar. Thank you so much for your thumbs. Twitter said a new shirt would be put it in the middle-ish. I just still love to hold on to the resin so you need to scrape the walls no matter what. Agreed. The other thing I'm noticing is that the bubbles when compared to hand-mixing. Probably, yeah. Sure. Well, also it's worth noting that when you mix with a porous something, like a popsicle stick, it can introduce bubbles into your resin. I don't know that that is... And like, if that would be enough to even notice, but just worth thing. Theoretically, the reverse motion should help the unmixed resin off the sides of the cup. Well, something's going to be on the sides. It would help... If I had mixed resin and then unmixed resin, that doesn't make any sense, but whatever's on the wall is going to stick to the wall unless I greased it first with mixed resin, which, meh. It is mixing better than before, for sure. I find stone goods pretty easy to mix, but Ocean Coat on a cool day is not fun on the guns. Now, Ocean Coat is a really, really thick resin, and so, yeah, when mixing, it can get tiresome. I get tired mixing even a casting epoxy. I'm like, oh my goodness, has it been four minutes yet? And then I have Clara text me out of nowhere that says, nope, it's only been 30 seconds. What's up, Megan? Long time no see. That's how you build your guns. I hope you feel better today, Clara. So, Rhonda, this is available all together on Amazon for $20. I don't know if you can find a stand. I'd imagine they're kind of made to fit certain mixers. I don't know, but you can find it all together down in the description box. If you click my Amazon link, it's the most recent thing listed. That is also true, Stephanie, good note. The cup isn't spinning this time. I think it's because it's more incorporated so that there's less resistance. That's also eScience. I don't know if that's a fact, but it's what I have surmised. I've actually coated popsicle stick with resin, but you don't know what your roommate did something with it. Well, that's unfortunate. eScience, learn it, live it. Yes, that could be a shirt. This reminds me of my favorite air-cook quote for hand-mixing from the past. Stir until your arm starts to hurt and then stir some more. Andrea, no truer words. Okay, that's truly how long I used to mix for. Stir until your arm hurts and then keep going. Clara, I do have it in my Amazon store. You think that all the time when mixing? Aw, I'll take it. I think I have most everything off of this. So, y'all, it looks pretty good. I'll say that it took longer than the estimated four minutes. Let's see if I can see any. Nope. Not seeing. Oh, yeah, a little bit. I see a little swirl. But that might be from the popsicle stick or having to scrape the walls one more time because usually when I'm hand-mixing, I scrape the walls a dozen times, but it's like super faint swirls. I'd rather use that to mix for six minutes like it did and then just have to mix in some of that berry floss just only that much so I'm starting to wear my arm out, fully mixing it. So, just off-screen, Jeff took this guy and you spun it. We didn't even wipe it off. I think it just got it all. It doesn't seem like there's resin on it at all, but just for good measure, we're going to wipe it off so it doesn't get gunked up. So, okay, color me impressed. I give it nine and a half bananas only because I don't... Okay, probably even still 10 bananas because let's say they did something that scraped the edges for you. What if you had a thin edge or you have different sized cups? It would be really hard to make that work where it would scrape the edges and do everything for you where you wouldn't have to do anything to it whatsoever. So, I think maybe I'll give it ten bananas because that's not bad. And so, the bubbles in it aren't bad. It's pretty clean, especially for an electric mixing apparatus. Can you see the bubbles in it from up there? Like it's not bad. It's very good point, Susan. It would be also good if you needed more resin while you're already working on a piece. Very much that. Bye, JJ. I'm not. I'm putting like the faintest of flecks in. Most of the bubbles came from when you were stirring with a stick. I think you're probably right. What stick are you using? I'm using our Patten No Longer Pending Reusable Star Stick. It looks like this because I'm too lazy to peel the plastic off of it. Paper? Yep. Or, or, or... I meant what I said and I'm too lazy to paint. Nope, tear the plastic off of the paper. In any case, too lazy for that. And I just wiped it off and now it's ready for the next time I use it. Probably you could mix your resin and all of your colors with this one stick and then still use it. So, I have not tried this before today. I got the box in the mail late last night. I got the batteries two hours ago because I never had batteries in my house. And, voila. Now, what I have in there is not bubble. Well, there are some bubbles, but it's abalone. Oh, Milky Way, I can't remember. You can see a little bit of the sparkle. You'll see more of the sparkle in just a moment. That is an absolutely stunning painting. This way. Be very careful. It'll give you a rotated back around notice. That's an absolutely stunning painting. Thank you. Thank you so much, T.G. I hope you're having an amazing day. Did we protect this before we put the resin down? Yeah. The Amazon description doesn't say stand included. It says stand included. It says stand included. So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The Amazon description doesn't say stand included. It's a whole set, but I'll look at it. I'll look at it in a moment. We did seal the piece in after we did the airbrush with a matte UV archival spray. I don't care what anyone says. Resin just brightens up any piece. It makes the colors brighter. It makes deep shades. More depthy. Yeah. I said depthy. I'm good with it. It's fine. I just love what resin does to a piece. I know people say that a varnish can do the same. No. No. I mean, maybe, but mostly no. I got some of this on this. I'm going to have to wipe that off. How about mixing colors in it? Well, it makes thoroughly. I would surmise that if it'll fully incorporate resin, then it will fully mix in a color. And my air just turned on, so probably everything is about to land in this. You can leave it on by the time you get back. I'm going to take this to the dust-free zone. So if you guys don't know, resin self-levels. So you don't really have to make sure that there's an even amount across the whole surface. I'm just making sure that I don't have any dry spots, because I have flooded a piece and then realized after it's cured that this corner was dry to the bone. And it is heartbreaking. Especially if you have a fully perfect, clear, no blemish finish. Not allowed to buy any artwork yet. Don't have the room, nor do we want to have anything grown when we moved across the straits, the states. Well, that sounds, I don't know, a pa-rump. I'm pretty sure I didn't said that wrong. I don't know where either of those places are, but it sounds far away from each other. Resin allows the color to be what it's supposed to look like as well. Add more 3D effect to whatever you're making. Agreed. So, Laura, the first time I read your comment, I thought it said acoustic pieces, not encaustic. I even then almost said agnostic. Yeah, definitely will deepen all the pieces. I've never seen anyone put it on like those pieces, but pa-rump is near Vegas. Oh, I didn't know that. Oh, the one I have linked does not include a stand. Okay, so my bad, but I will one with a stand in just a moment. Just have to run over to dust-free zone. Bang, bang, boom. If you guys haven't seen our dust-free zone video, check it out. There is two. Hey, do you want to ask them about having something while I change the... I don't know what she's doing. Oh, she's changing the link to... This is our little mic. They work pretty good, right? You guys can hear her and me when we talk. Laura Taylor, thank you so much again. That was amazing. You're beyond a rock star in our eyes. So I went and bought a bunch of hats, and I know y'all aren't hat-wares, but I know you guys have maybe some kids or some grandkids or some, I don't know, maybe your Amazon guy that you've seen wears a fun hat. I only bought 12 hats just to see what it would be like just to go live and just do people's names on the hats. We'll give an option of colors, but that's pretty much it because some people's names are longer. Some people just want maybe their initials. So the way the names are done, I will just kind of pick that way. So it would be either easier on my behalf so that they don't take so long and or just how they look. I know some names have obviously a lot more letters. Some people maybe just want their initials. So the design will kind of be up to me, and hopefully you guys will appreciate that. So it'll be just from me and you guys get to pick the colors. And we'll have one, two, three, four, five, six colors. I've got to put together a couple more airbrushes. Jim bought an ATV hat. Well, you can get your custom one-of-a-kind one-off trucker hat, which you can wear in the swimming pool. You can wear it to the lake this summer. Woo-hoo. You guys will have a brand new one-of-a-kind ATV hat patrolling and helping Erica. Thank you, Vamp. I don't see any on Amazon that include this stand. This doesn't have a model number. Oh, Resin Mixer Ultra. I went to the iStoyo store even and included it in the box. I didn't get a silicone mat. I want to talk to a manager. What mat thing? No, it's white. Oh, yeah. Okay. I'm going to have to search Cordless Resin Mixer Ultra and see if I can find it. But I went to the iStoyo store on Amazon and couldn't find the one with the stand, just the Mixer, which is still awesome. I will, or Vamp actually will reach out to them and find out a link for this exact model. And if they give me a deal, then I'll just stock them in the store and charge the same price that they have on Amazon. So, Tim has bought an ATV hat. Vamp, you're always doing the most. Also, get some rest. I need you healthy, lady. This goes out to Vamp. Is your license plate covered on Amazon under artists that they're ATV? I remember seeing it. I'm wondering if it's you, Jeff. They are airbrushed. License plate covers? Are the license plate looking hat? Yeah, the seller of this is iStoyo. I don't know if I'm saying that right. But this set is the Cordless Resin Mixer Ultra. Pencil Tucky Hillbilly, this is you? Yeah, they did reach out for testing. But, like I said, Vamp will figure out the information and I will get it to you guys. Super ASAP. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this live that you were inspired or educated or entertained in some way. We will... They go around the license plate. Sorry, I can't remember what they're called, but they hold license plate. Oh, I know what you were talking about, Pencil Tucky. We don't actually sell on Amazon. I just have an affiliate shop that just lists all the things that I use on the channel that I don't sell in my own store, like myartisttilldeath.com store. So, yeah. But, so you're looking for a mold or a plate cover. Anyways, I will be live tomorrow early. I don't know what time yet. My sister and my mom and my sister's little tea time baby are coming to town tomorrow. So, you'll email Yinz the link, sweet. Looking forward to it. Love it. So, yeah. I'll be live early tomorrow. I don't know what I'll be doing, but hopefully it'll be awesome and I won't be live the next day because my sister and mom and the baby will be here. So, yeah. Anyways, hope you guys have an awesome day. Be kind to one another because you never know what someone's going through and you never know what someone's going through. He got mad at me the other day for saying his line. Are you gonna join in the goodbye? I said in... Oh, we do the tests. So, you and Yinz don't have to. Thank you guys for being here. We appreciate it so much. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye. I said bye. I said be kind to one another because you never know what someone's going through. I'm pretty sure. You guys can do that. Goodbye.
