 Hello everyone welcome to Wednesday at 1 o'clock Toronto time Live in the art studio. I'm Dave behind the camera is Jeff. What's up? We're gonna be just making some things and Usually it ends with the I'm getting coated in resin. So that's what we're doing here Thanks for watching. Hello mom my strongest supporter I Hope you're having a great day So very nice, why don't we walk around look at stuff? This will be our table of contents and then we'll actually make some stuff So if you have any questions, just ask Jeff All right, so I'm good. Why don't we start here boom. So when you buy butterflies on the internet Then butterflies they come with their wings closed. So you have to Rehydrate them so get them a bit moist and then you can slowly open them Now that they've been sitting like this it should stay in position. See oh nice yeah, so Why? Why are we doing butterflies? We're trying to cast them inside resin then our next phase is playing with the laminator So we're gonna do a test today Why don't we go look at the butterflies and show what the problems were? All right You've been following along we've been trying to cast we have all these butterfly samples sup John's Hi, everyone, Janice Thanks for watching everyone so a Couple things we're trying to do it all on one poor. Hi, Rebecca. Hi summer. Hey, there's summer and Rebecca. Hey summer Hey, Dale. Hey, Rebecca Hey, Wanda. Hi everyone Dale from Grimsby Grimsby We're just around the corner. Yeah water down and we live in Dundas Dianne from Minnesota Minnesota Miriam we're just talking about troubleshooting Casting butterflies and huge blocks and red Ed and Andrea Zach say hi mom or she's just coming on. Okay. Hi So from the user feedback that we've got from you guys. Thank you very much Multiple people have said you want to eliminate your butterflies first so We've been doing that. We're buying a better laminator We got a cheap one off of Amazon and couldn't take the thickness of the body So what we'll do today is we're gonna cut this out and cast just this winging resin Mm-hmm just to see if that's all all the problems of discoloring and bubbles All right, hey Debbie This is one thing we're gonna do today is If this test works, then we'll do some big blocks. I don't know bigger than that like four inch blocks of oh, yeah Butterflies suspended and I think that we have troubleshooted everything. Yeah, what about suspending? What are you thinking? Well someone one of the users here on a good name for Suspending things in space before you apply resin they call this string and box Mm-hmm technique, and I guess that's an action This is all new to me though. So you use you have a box a frame Some whatever you're gonna pour into and then you have string basically And and that's what you just suspended in space. So We'll cross that road when we get there. All right. Look at that the laminator kept the colors super vibrant Now if I wasn't in a rush because of this live video, I would have been a bit tidier But this is enough to give us an experience. So that was laminated. So you did eliminate that previously. Yeah, I laminated this one Okay, so I went through okay. Yeah, just a new one or is this an old one? This is just I think it's 39 bucks just on Amazon and The body kept getting stuck So we're flattening the butterflies with a brick Debbie we are an hour west of Toronto, Canada and in water down water down Ontario, Canada Mm-hmm So these are kind of scratched up just to give it some sort of effect We were trying to put the resin only on this bubble So we're gonna try that again and the key is to let your resin get really thick first and then pour it We were having some issues, but we'll do this today too Okay So These are rough because they've been sanded, but these are So they were originally four by four blocks of wood and then it rotted away and we filled in the rest with resin This is a pink resin We're gonna resin these again today for the final coat of resin like look at that. It's so cool I've always been excited to do this these ones aren't perfect as you'll see we still have some bubbles But we know what to do to get rid of those now Nice. Yeah, so there's still a bit too many bubbles, but Just troubleshooting trying to get it all worked out. Someone is actually I think was Omar is Deaf and is wondering if I could turn on the closed captioning. Do you know how to do that? Oh Omar Is deaf and much closed captioning. I'll try and speak really clearly so that all the text is No, but I don't have I don't have the closed captioning on Trying to see if I can sorry Omar. I'm trying it. Well, sorry Omar. He can't he doesn't know Oh, maybe oh, I think you have to put it on afterwards. Maybe or maybe Omar has to do it Yeah, de-sing on his own. Oh, yeah, I wish I could help out Omar. Sorry buddy. So mom and dad We would go to I think it was called red rose at the time in the craft store Yeah, now it's Michael's or Joanne And I would always get in that store and rush over to the balsa wood section If you don't know what balsa wood is It is a very soft almost spongy wood This is and so anyways this point of the story is I go into the craft section and just touch the balsa wood Just want the balsa wood and you cut it and glue it. You can cut it with just like a knife So you don't need any fancy tools and then and usually they're used to make like model houses Or you can make some amazing stuff. So I just got a kit I'm gonna make these bases out of balsa wood and you might say that this isn't strong enough to make a base But I'm gonna resin it nice. Yeah, and then that's the idea. Anyways, we'll see if it works So I'm coming up with some sort of design. I'm gonna make it a balsa wood make a base I'm gonna paint it black I think and then Call it a day. Okay. That's cool. Yeah. Hey Alexis welcome back D. Did you want to say anything to D? Oh Yeah, yeah, thank you D Oh She sent us a Tim Hortons gift card if you don't know Tim Hortons is the pot like the Starbucks of Canada to the cheap Starbucks Okay, but look at it. It's like a homemade card. We sent her some resin and she said she looks forward to it buy some coffee and donuts So, thank you D and I wanted to say if anyone wants to send us anything Here's the address Nice and close Dave's act non-grivance free water down on to our two H. Oh, but thank you D. That's amazing Thanks for making the card and making the effort so you can send gift cards to that Welcome Rose and everybody and speaking of Nice transition look at how perfect this is It's not perfect. It's pretty close. So we're like yeah We're get we're mastering this technique and we'll teach you how to do it, but you're not a dirty mold That's why there's a little scarring on the sides, but you need a nice clean mold, but we've really been learning about flowers a Lot and then filming process and documenting it. So We'll teach you all that and you guys have been telling us what to do, too And what the heck are we doing today? We talked about butterflies. We looked at the lamps. Oh, why don't we do electrical for the lamp? I'm so distracted all the time this compression chamber. We're gonna use today, too Yes, it's a terrifying looking machine And so we have so we have someone at our resident Scott Who is going to be trying to find like user-friendly? Compression chambers look at this thing. Oh, no way. You got him on that. That's awesome Yeah, exactly, but this thing if you're ever gonna get into casting casting resin and Then you want to make things the compression chamber is best friend. I don't like admitting that Because I want to try and have stuff everyone can do Yeah Okay, here's what we're gonna do We're gonna make a cable for the lamp and these are all parts you can get at any hardware store or just on Or just on Google. Mm-hmm. So step one So there's I'm gonna draw a diagram of how to make a lamp wire Okay, where'd you learn all this? Like how to do wiring and stuff? Yeah Why are things up so you have you have a plug-in, right? and Then you have your wire and Then here we're gonna have an on-off switch, right? And then and then we're gonna have a light Your mom said that all of your crafts turned into electrical when you were a kid. Yeah, it's so fun and it's pretty difficult when you're and so there's so There's actually a circle that's happening Through here. See the electricity is coming in here Mm-hmm and going like that and then going back in a circle. So as long as that's the basics of Any electrical thing you just made me a circle. Hmm And if at any time you make a mistake, and it's not a circle, that's called short circuiting and Then your fuse will blow so I got these switches off of Amazon Hey season the witch is back. Hey season of the witch. I really like that name You know, it's a great store name. Okay, let's just do this store name. Yeah, it's a store, right? Or it's her online. It's her we got the name last week, and I forget it already. I apologize. Yeah Okay, can you give us a sports update like what's going on in the world of sports? What's going on in the world of sports? Let's see. We're winding down to the conference finals in basketball where it's now going to be Lakers and He know heat heat and Celtics are playing already And Lakers are playing surprisingly the nuggets the Clippers blew it last Okay In football the biggest my favorite is football is back. It just had their first full week Looked like it went off without any problems. It was so nice to have it back If anybody else is a football fan, let me know who you're a fan of because I love it all and I love fantasy football Dave totally as you see Dave's reactions here. Oh Totally just Pieces me and allows me to talk sports because he knows I love it so much So what about hockey hockey? No, I love hockey So hockey is also in down to its finals where we got Dallas and we got Tampa Bay and Yeah, we're looking I'm thinking Tampa Bay is gonna take it this year because they kind of blew it out last year So I think it should be Tampa's year, but you never know Oh, no, Rose doesn't like football rose. You're breaking my heart Cowboys from creative Pegasus red wings from Red Wing Detroit. Okay Um Cowboys, yeah, they kind of blew it last week started to hear that but maybe next week though It was Atlanta and Dallas week of game. Hi Dave and Jeff and who are I am so happy. I finally see the live stream So I disappeared But saying hi to whoever said hi. Thank you Jen Green Bay Packers. Yeah, love. Oh, they had a great game Nice to have Rogers back Make this lamp wire. So this is just called lamp wire lamp wire. Okay It's called lamp wire. So you just took a regular lamp wire and you can just cut this no problem. Yeah, you did, okay This is this was one of my favorite tools growing up. What's that? So it's so the bottom part cuts and then these are the different holes for stripping the plastic And it always has a nice little lock It's such a great tool and then you can grab things with the end of it and pull it in I don't know what the thing's called Stripper, is it a cable stripper? No, I don't know. Yeah cable wire strippers. There you go, John John's always on call. Thanks, John Thanks, John. So I want to make it very tight so that I don't want to cut back beyond that I don't want to go beyond that part, right? So it'll look nice and tidy so I'll use this wire stripper to just get started. Mm-hmm. You can split them see The wire is perfect The wire is perforated so that you can pull it quite easily. So what are the two sides? Well, you're always making a circuit, right? So there's two wires Oh, so is it the same so it's the same power same cable essentially, but it has to return making a circle. Yeah That's what electricity is So I'm gonna use The second smallest one or second largest one on this thing Yeah, do you help happy to have you come by you can purchase here. Yeah, come on over deep Or actually I got in trouble because of the global pandemic The guys in Texas, they're like, don't invite people over during a pandemic I was like, sorry, it was really nice, but we can be um You know, it's safe. Yeah Wear masks and stuff It's a new world, eh? Yeah I went to the gym for the first time today. Yeah And they want you to wear a mask the whole time you're working out the whole time you're working out That's kind of crazy. I don't know like, yeah, it's hard to breathe. But yeah, what do you do? Well, you got to get rid of that Belly you got cooking there. I know a dad bod Okay Thousand islands. Ooh, that sounds like a good idea That's solid dressing. See someone's saying one it's like other side one side is neutral and one side is One side is neutral hot And neutral is just the line that's going back again So you can almost Attach anything to that. All right This is all safe, right? We're gonna survive this. Yeah, I mean how it's not attached to power yet. Very true Okay, you just got screwed in Yeah, and the screw just pinches it And then of course the screw is made of a metal so it's Solid dressing. Yeah So we're done with Thousand Island Whatever happened to that it Still exists that's isn't that kind of McDonald's secret Big Mac sauce too is kind of like a just a spin on Thousand Island dressing Really? I think so. Are you sure about that? No, don't quote me on it. But now it's recorded. Yeah So McDonald's secret sauce is just Thousand Islands dressing. Yeah, that's my theory Really? Yeah I know right try it Boom see Ed and Andrews say it's right. See there you go Okay, they just put mayonnaise out in the sun. That's Rebecca says Oh, hi wife. Yeah so Um, I want the the plug to be pretty close to the lamp. So I'm just gonna cut about that much Right. Yeah We'll do the other end and this is our led light That I took from this package. So it is uh one of those What do they call them pot light a square pot light? And I okay, and I just took it apart and just took out the light part That was very easy to do I just unscrewed those things and it just pops up when you just took off the circuit here Yeah, I want and so I'm gonna make a contraption of balsa wood that this can go into and the lamp can just sit on top And then resin everything and actually you can resin over top of circuit boards That's actually another use for very clear resin And the circuit board gets a coat of it on top just to hold everything in place And it's not conductive. So it's totally fine. It's like your final quote of circuit boards The exact same stuff that is used in art resin Is used for coating circuit boards? Um, okay, so a few things. Yes, this Thousand Island has become a big Yeah thing where yes, I guess it's uh possibly Thousand Island with relish and mayonnaise. That's what we're thinking Uh, and yeah, but we did uh, yeah, okay Everybody's talking about it right now because someone was asking about uh, can you make a resin scented our resin scented and we played with that We did and we tested Essential oils and we tested fragrance oils. I don't know what the difference is But the essential oil didn't work at all. There's no smell. It just gets cured within the resin and just stays there so there's no no smell and Fragrance oil smelled a little bit But we're not big fans of Of it. It wasn't that it wasn't that strong enough to be really impressive Yeah So no, we haven't figured out how to make epoxy resin smell with by mixing it into the resin Unfortunately, okay So I mean it's really long So oops In this end So this is just okay soon Do you have to make sure that there Does it matter which side goes into which? No, it doesn't really well I've never noticed it to matter and I I've survived Okay, but I could be I mean when you get into more complex wiring you start Doing that. Um, I wanted to go back to something. Yeah Arby's sauce Oh I I mean catalina dressing and ketchup mixed I'm not buying it. I tried it. I tried it a lot. What is it ketchup and what? Catalina dressing. Oh, yeah. Yeah one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's what No, there's no way because there's no real kick to it. Like Arby's got has a little bit of kick, doesn't it like I know right. I've never been able to figure it out. That doesn't sound right. Oh, yeah Interesting So if anyone out there knows the answer to that Arby Arby sauce putting it out there, Dave needs to know how to do a homemade version Rebecca says it's not real food. She's like hey, they just take the meat out of a bag Like a bag is a perfectly reasonable way to transport Great roast beef your mom is saying there's a dressing called russian that's similar Russian is that similar now to the big mac sauce? Are we talking here or are we talking about the arby sauce? Yeah, creative pegasus is throwing up to the Arby's. Really? You are awesome says Cindy. That's very nice Cindy. Cindy S Y N D I E beautiful Cindy. That's nice Look at this thing. This is so difficult. Yeah, why do we try? Hey, you try so that you learn Yeah, and you grow and become better I don't know. I went to the gym today and I said that and it's so hard But you know, it's good for you. Yeah I heard a good quote something like You need to do the things that you hate to do As if you actually love doing them Makes sense I tuned you out about five minutes ago This is really hard. I just give up. Thanks Kelly. You're awesome. She's loving you Kelly I I have man hands I'm rushing. I drank too much coffee. I'm shaking a bit. I'm doing this delicate fine work We got it. We had turtle jacks for lunch today. Everybody just we recommend that that is Yeah turtle jacks Turtle jacks How much they're a chain? I think they have like eight locations here in Southern Ontario Kind of got a muscoka Flavor field to them, I guess right and if you don't know muscoca is it's where toronto escapes In the summer to their cottages about two hours north of toronto. It's called muscoca Yeah, so lots of like celebrities and stuff A lot of big places there Okay, look I didn't give up and I I succeeded doughnuts and deep fried pickles for your shakes What do you mean? I think that's what everybody's offering you for solutions to help with you What do you mean? Just eat those and Eat those and you'll be good and go to copper kettle. Someone already knows the area. Oh copper kettle. Cool What's at that? Uh, was it sandy? I forget copper kettle just right behind us. Yep. Yeah, that's good. Good And they make homemade apple fritters on the spot. Oh Yeah, it's not good Like not good as in very good. Yeah, not good to They're so good, but you feel so gross. Oh, yeah, you get lost in those. Oh, yeah Look how much fun that is Yeah, you like doing that. It is fun So, how do you know what you just kind of figure out what size of the cable is you just slide it into Yeah, I mean if usually start big like if I did this one It wouldn't go all the way through and doesn't pull off so you kind of just keep going until you find Okay, the size that seems to work Well, it's so much easier doing it that way whenever I try to cut it with like an exacto. It's I worry about Yeah, exactly. Yeah, and you end up cutting a couple of the pieces exactly. Yeah, everyone needs this tool Uh, sorry to hear all your problems. D. I'm glad you're feeling better. Do you have any problems? Yeah, she's having she's having nutrition problems. I don't know, but it looks like she's all good Every single female that I know is having a like digested issues. Oh, no every single female I know their stomach hurts They're having a hard time sleeping like How's your wife Jeff? Uh, doing okay. I mean, is there's belly hurt? Is it tummy hurt? Sometimes all the time something's going on with females. Yeah, but you know, we just need uh Consistent sleep a better sleep pattern would be good. Yeah, so I'm just roughly twisting these together and I just put a bit of Electrical tape just to keep everything as small and compact as possible. Okay, but we'll be hiding this part inside So again, we are doing the backtrack for anybody that may have joined late We are doing wiring as opposed to normal kind of art resin stuff. What are we doing wiring for? For these lamps and and we're gonna pour resin over top of this and then And then we'll just watch it for a couple minutes. It'll be very like meditative and beautiful You'll see what I'm talking about All right. Okay. Let me just finish this up. Then let's mix some resin All right. So yeah, just some electrical so that we can Yeah, and I'm really rushing and again. I drink too much coffee. That's all right Thanks, Steve for the Tim Horton's curve That was so nice Okay, okay I'm gonna finish later because I'm just rushing and doing a terrible job But you get it, right? Oh no, we want to test this at least. Yeah You know, I'm just gonna do this right so these things They have a coil on the inside and then just twist everything together in there Perfect Or you could tape it doesn't matter either way. You could intertwine it with tape, but But these things are better Okay, now let's plug into the wall and see if we die Okay, great. If I die, uh, Jeff, you can have my dog Uh, okay. I'll take summer. Sure. I think Rebecca will probably have a problem with that How to plug into a wall. There we go. Okay moment of truth Oh We have light. Yeah And then you can add things like Dimmer switches if you want to. Oh, yeah dimmer. Okay, but this is just a regular on and off switch Yeah, that's all we wanted for our lamps. Cool. Speaking of lamps, let's set up these ones Why don't we see if my balsa would like to have any Merit at all first before we go too far so balsa wood D's excited to see the lamps. Yeah, me too. These three aren't perfect. So I'm but I'm redoing them Absolutely perfect. So what are you doing? So you're cutting? Wow, this is just really easy to cut and strip down I'm just trying to remember There are tricks and That seems like crescent it Fuji's excited Fuji's craft studio. Oh good Jeff, what are you excited about these days? Yeah, I'm actually going to see tenet tonight I'm excited for that. Just going to the movies. Just going. I'm just going for it. I mean a buddy and we're gonna go and Check out the movie social distance. They got it. It's an iMac. So everything is really spaced out and So but I'm I'm happy to uh, just get out there. I love the movies and I want to see this movie on the big screen. So I'm gonna get a popcorn and a coke Yep, nice every time you get thanks D So you get the uh, refillable popcorn I never want to get it. I never want to miss a single second of the movie. So I once I'm in my seat That's it locked in tenet the new Christopher Nolan Kind of inception like movie, but it's only like I do collect scene points It's only like three extra dollars For what iMacs To know I think oh, I'm going to popcorn size But I don't need to go back Huh, but it's only three dollars to just to know that you could So what am I doing it for when I'm just just Just to know that I could Right, but I know that I'm gonna stay there. So well, then when you leave you fill it up and you can have the next day for breakfast Oh, oh, well, there usually is leftovers. We'll see if I get time to have dinner before I go today We'll see we'll see. We'll see But uh, either way that is the biggest thing and then uh, I know well, it's still A lot of movies are still being bumped back. So oh really? Oh, yeah, there's a lot of it's not releasing them. No a lot of movies have been Like the james bond everything that there's a second top gun coming out all these things have been pushed pushed pushed They want to make the people can get in there. Yeah, because uh, new york I believe LA. I think they're still shut down They don't have theaters open in the big cities and those are major markets So they're they're shut down like completely shut down in new york. Yep leaders as far as I know Okay, so I I was gonna use super glue Okay, make this structure Actually resin leftover popcorn interesting. Oh making a pop me resonating a popcorn. Yeah, that's kind of cool interesting Um, sorry, so what you're doing? I was gonna roughly uh, glue these together then just sand the corners Marybeth your dog must be Terrible uh, taste the meat sound says your dog likes it when I sing. That's not a good thing Oh I'm gonna play with this later. Sorry. I'm going I do. Yep And then I was gonna create like an inner square here for it to sit on top of out of this size We're So I'm just making a square out of these. Yeah, and then a ring on the inside And it's really just to house the circuit board for the for the light, right? Yeah, and I'll be painting it black It'll just be a base like that I'm gonna see I just wanted to play with balsa wood Hmm I'm gonna get some super glue Oh, like maybe I just glue this base on here like this And then it's pour resin over the whole thing and then it'll pour over this too What do you think? Hmm I just don't want it to be messy. You don't want to be messy. No All right on the wood the wood might like because it'll look good on the lamp, but I just don't know what it'll Look like on the wood. Okay. Well, I'm gonna resin. What one should I resin then? What should we do? Maybe the middle one just resin either the pink one or the pink one or the Medium size one. I just want you to see what happens. Yeah, it's just so cool to watch Actually, why don't I do these two? All right, everybody wants the pink one So I'm just setting up a little stance One of the pyramids your mom's concerned that the balsa wood is gonna be a little too weak I know I'm thinking of too, but that's why I was thinking if I if I resin the whole base Oh, I see whole base and resin that'll strengthen the big time. Yeah. Yeah, turn it into like plastic. So I'll see Those are some lovely stands Okay, oh All right Embellished Yeah, oh do you want to show your I think someone was actually asking about the marker tops Here it is. John. You ready for it? If you're here last week Turned out really nice like that's wicked for a kid's room or a playroom or something like that. That's like awesome Nice People are people are giving some thumbs up and compliments. I believe they're liking that. Well done, dude. Yeah. Thanks, john Thanks season the witch. Thanks everybody Random thing just boom grab some stuff grab some leftovers. The one that we do with sand with a shell in it Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, where is that? Did you are you gonna do the sign right? Yes, yes, everybody liked that one too the shell and the sand that was really great Okay, so we're gonna do we're gonna put art resin on those. Let me get some new gloves. Okay And we're just gonna mix up a little bit and then we're gonna put something in the compression chamber. Oh I also want to Just float that butterfly wing in there Float like a butterfly Okay, so let's start with I'm gonna get a smaller No brought to you by Okay, that's right Sting like a bee. There's been a lot of bees. I don't know about you I've been swarmed by bees this summer Okay, so I put a lot in there That was the hardener So I got one and a half I have to go almost all the way to three These buckets with the measurements on the side are just fantastic. Yeah Wow, I love the 10 gallon jugs of resin. I know right? Monsters Can you have the lamp when it's done come on actually But a little oh, they're so nice Dave always Um, we have been thinking about and what do you guys think everybody who kind of comes back? We're thinking next week We're gonna do a giveaway. Maybe Dave Yeah, sure like we'll do like One of the pieces that we've done here. I don't know whether it's the if Dave finishes the marker or the whether sand in the shell or the I don't know the spray paint stuff, whatever we'll give kind of an option out there And it will be a competition between all of you guys, but you have to watch the show You got to pay attention. This is what I'm thinking. Anyways, and then we have A questionnaire at the end of the show and based off of like a quiz like maybe three or four questions at the end And whoever can say the correct answers the quickest We'll win that The painting of their choice Something like that. I mean we make so many things here and you guys join us along with the journey all the experimentation We appreciate it. So we want to give back. So if you guys are Interesting or interested we will we'll do that up and hopefully put up something that you guys would be interested in having So let's do that and Dave said yes to sandy you you're oh sandy sandy. I believe is the one who asked for a lamp Don't worry. We'll we'll come up with something creative pegasus. We'll come up with something to make it fair for everybody So we'll see we'll come up with some plan, but uh Stay tuned for that. Hopefully we'll do it next week. It'll be either next week or the week after for sure Fairness, eh? We've done contests in the past and we Not many people complain, but people complain. I know they want to be fair We try we always try to be fair for sure All right, I just started pretty crazy. Sorry. I got lots of bubbles here right now Let's let that sit and I'm going to mix up some casting resin. Thanks John So why don't you do casting today? We're just going to be casting uh So we're going to use this compression. Yeah, and this is to make sure that you have zero bubbles and it works absolutely amazing But if you're so intimidating to look at Look at all this stuff cables and metal like big holes It looks like it's from like Like this from like the 80s or 60 or something like it's so poorly designed Of course suji will make it open for you in india Why can't someone make a compression chamber that doesn't look like you're You're long, you know launching into space. I think I've seen videos where at least it's just this like it's just I haven't seen this with it. Oh, is it always like maybe it's off camera then when I don't see it? Yeah, because once you're fully you can get rid of that Okay, so what are we going to do today? We're going to just pour clear in this Jeff. Yes, please clear the cast and throw it in the compression chamber And then I want to put something in here. Okay Do you want to mount something in there? Oh, I want to put this but I want to test to see if we'll have no bubbles On this wing since it spins. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Do you want to suspend it then? Yeah, I'm going to suspend it How should I suspend it? This will float, right? We all float down here. I mean you got a super glue to the bottom basically So how we don't want to do that though. I don't want to let's not do anything to the mold Can we suspend from the air like above like we'll try let's pour some resin in these two and see what's happening And put them in a tank so at the bottom of your pressure pot if you ever get one of these You just put something to keep it clean That would be plastic. Use a safety pin held by a clipper to make the butterfly float A safety pin held by what? Safety pin held by a clipper like a clip But you also want to do it all in one pour. Yeah, it's the hard part Yes, yeah, because you don't want it. Yeah, exactly Um Yeah, because this is a slope here Hmm How have we been spending while we did the The fishing wire which didn't work The fishing wire kind of worked, didn't it? Kind of You can still see the fishing wire though. You can. Yeah Maybe we need to try different types of fishing wire. I still think I mean not in this case It's just a wing, but I still think if we put it on like a twig or something Obviously, I make that part of the artwork. I make that part of the artwork exactly So it's like I know it's be nice if it was just completely suspended, but we just have to do more research into Suspending stuff for resin casting. Mm-hmm. We've got to do more research. Okay Okay I stir this too Yeah We've talked we've done the whole letting it set for a little while once it hard and then we pour another coating But the problem is it does create still a faint line. Yeah between the layers. So I don't know if there's a sweet spot or not Sorry, Dave. Well, that's further what you're saying. We've tried to do two coats We do one coat and then you wait just a certain time frame to do the next and It seems like no matter what you do, you always see a line in between it And I still want to accept that that's what you have to do Interesting, but he's saying not our code code trainer code code trainer. Let us know what your name is So I can try and call you by your name Um If we use a compression chamber or the pressure pot potentially it won't have a line Miriam, sorry. That's right Miriam. Okay. Yeah, I remember now It won't have a line anything if you use the pressure pot. Maybe So that's the thing creative Pegasus when you do a if you do a fully fully let it cure and do a next layer For sure you will see a line you'll see a difference between where it was for the first pour was in the second pour Yeah, so Now we'll figure it out We're gonna do something Okay, I'm gonna let this sit for a bit and I don't know if you can see how watery this is. Mm-hmm. Yeah, it's very Liquidy. Yeah, very liquidy. It's great. And that's what casting resin is so that All the bubbles can escape really easily. Yes. Nice and clear too. It looks good. Yeah So we're gonna say that's good Oh, and I wanted to know another cast. I mean so many people Have been asking can you mix kale oil into your art resin? What? It's been non-stop people asking So we're gonna find out right now Let's make a mold I was talking to a woodworker about Final coats on wood because for example, this is resin. This is wood And I want this to be high gloss. I want this to be high gloss. So I was saying, how do you get your wood high high gloss And you sent me a product of oil It was oil and resin kind of mixed and you mixed two parts together, but it's oil So I'm very confused by it. Hmm But I'm just curious to see what will happen if I mix it in. So it's just a rub on or you put it in with? Yeah, yeah, it's a rub on onto wood. Actually, I'm gonna get some wood This is our wood vane We've been coating pavers in resin Yeah, um because the pair is inside silicone Yeah, we're gonna create a mold for the pair so we can create A bowl of fruit What really? Okay So we're gonna put we're gonna just rub oil and resin onto wood for some reason There's no apparent reason Okay, this is a look at that that called purple heart tree. It's purple heart. It's beautiful wood and this is uh, I don't know Jeff, uh, that's uh brown Kidney, I don't know There you go. Oh, sure So we're gonna take a little bit of the Yeah, we're gonna have to do some experimenting on the mic. I apologize Uh, we we just went with the phone mic today just because we found that we've been gearing me up and it hasn't been working So here's watch out. Oh, okay. Hold on. Let me get this. Okay. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on Because I get light reflection. I want to make sure this is a good Shot so everybody can appreciate this Coming around. Okay. I think this is okay. This is it. Yeah, see the wood see how it now really pops now Really takes yeah accentuates the wood And I can see into it Now you can start to see no into the yeah into the resin. Yeah, it was all cloudy before now You can actually see through it. There you go. Look at that. Oh, dude. That looks good. I wanted to pull out these Oh, see you just went from completely cloudy to now I can see through I mean we wasted a lot of resin there, but it was worth it for Yeah, it was just for the shot. Yeah, exactly. Sorry guys, don't do that at home in the center You know, definitely measure your resin, but we can Indulge a bit here just because it looks nice I have so much resin left over. Good. We'll do something with it Okay, I gotta take off these gloves We've got to rub a bit of the back here too. We've got some exposed in the back here This is great just on the back I'll use some balsa wood A spreader a balsa spreader a balsa spreader Does anyone else remember red rose the store? Red rose the store? The store called red rose I know the tea Oh, white rose. I remember the flower store. Yeah The flower store? Yeah, I thought of it as a like that fake flowers, right? Uh, I remember it as a What what do you remember it as? Like a mic was like arts and crafts place. Oh, is it? Oh, wow And but a big part was those fake you go in there and you buy the fake flowers and make the baskets and stuff Maybe that's all I remember. I just remember. Yeah for some reason. Well, maybe because the symbol was it was like a white rose with a red background, right? Yes. Yeah. Yeah Wow, that's that's taking me back. But that's where I would go to look at their balsa wood. Oh, okay. Okay Your mom would drive you Yeah, that's like my favorite start Okay, so that looks good. Look, this is great, man. I need to wear gloves, but my hands are so sticky That's funny, Laura She's soaked flowers from crafting there was a deal. She couldn't refuse or or use apparently All right, so we're just gonna poor cat. That's that's what it is. Rebecca They had an outdoor gardening center for sure. That's that's what I remember because that's where I think my mom would go there for that So that's what's in my head. I don't remember being crafts, but I guess it was Really no way and then what michaels took over. I don't know what happened like those It just disappeared and I remember being so sad when they closed I was the same when we had olive garden up here So good with the breadsticks and everything but then they just were gone. I guess because he said mario's Took over or just didn't I heard that there was some law was changed. Oh with the food Yeah, and they had to source the food from canada right they were shipping it from the states and then like they couldn't match the costs And then went out of business in canada Interesting. Oh, I love all the bird actually mean you went there for a birthday. That's right for our twin brother birthday Okay, so finally put this to rest. Can you mix kale oil in art ready? Finally the over abundance of Here we go First I'm just gonna put in this little one So kale oil is naturally slightly yellow, so it's gonna yellow this but this is for coating wood And again, this is based on seeing Products that would work for the buying that is like a resin and oil mixture for your final And I was like really So I don't know why I guess oil does oil soaks into the wood and then the resin locks it in place I'm discussing, you know, okay That's always I mean, so it's like doing a two for one deal on one and I think it's like a permanent coat of oil if you if it's mixed in resin Again, I'm just learning this so how you and it would be more of a rub on so I'm just gonna do half of each of them We'll just see how this cures and what it does but I mean that's Probably grab it on rub it off and it's a permanent a permanent Oil coat because there's it's called cutting board oil you can buy You oil your wood if you're using it for So an art resin is food safe, too So I think this is a great way to finish wood Yep, sandy sand kale oil kaleoil.com It's uh It's something it's a business I'm starting Okay, look at that beautiful. So that's Oh, look at the beautiful sheen like And anyways interesting use of resin I'm gonna put the rest of this into a more silicone wall So I can just look at it and see what See what happens. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, cuz you yeah, cuz if it's like Yeah, oily on the top then it's you want it to be solid Okay, so these lamps look awesome When they're done, I'll just have to sand the bottom and then build the bottom tray I'm just gonna take a torch to the top of it. This one's gonna look good man. This one we gotta do Okay, we're doing great So we're gonna move over to the compression chamber And this is what we've been using to get our flowers Nearly perfect and we're almost gonna get our butterflies perfect In here. So it's been Exciting. Let me grab that cask in here This is all stirred up Beautiful And this one we're just this is just for experimentation purposes. Yeah, we're just filling this up To the top. Whoa, and then this one I really don't know what I'm doing I'm just gonna put this in it might float it might sink I'm gonna find out but Mainly what we're looking for is to see if laminating Um stops the bubbles from coming out of the butterfly leaf and if laminating Keeps the color vibrant when you put it in the resin. Oh, okay. That's what this test is for very cool in the casting resin in the pressure pot pressure pot I guess pressure pot pot and compression chamber are the same thing. Oh, they are I think so Okay, what do you think? Oh, and there's a vacuum chamber here. Yeah, and that the vacuum chamber is down there And that's different. That's different to create the vacuum versus compressing Whoa A little spillage, but that's okay All right, I have a bit left. So I'm gonna do another something else in here Okay, stay tuned. We'll see how these turn out What else should we do in here? What else can we put in the compression? I always got room still We have a dry flower do you want to just do another flower? Okay Why don't we do this for or Yeah, you probably don't have room for all that dude for that one Laminate we just got a lamination machine. So you just got the the sheet and you put the butterfly within the sheets and then you pass it through the machine And then once it's laminated you cut it out and And then we're submerged it in the resin. So oh nice. It's turned over. That's great So hopefully it'll stay like that. So don't touch it. Oh, it's cool. That would be awesome. And that's just luck of the drop It's things like that. No, that's pure skill. We saw it here first Why don't we do uh, uh, flower and just show people what we've done so far. Okay. So we have little roses Some say love, you know, I'm just gonna try to just lay this in All right I think it's gonna put some tape on there or something. Yeah, I'll put some tuck tape and Superglue actually works really well. Tuck tape Yes, thanks D There's a thing of superglue and I'll put a piece of tape on it just to be safe. All right So we're gonna do a bit of baby's breath And a rose Some say Is that a rose? That's a is it's a rose, right? Baby rose? Is it? Yeah Yeah, bro, baby rose. Okay, so let's ask rose who's on with us Rose Rose I gave you this quote from a movie. Here's here's a question for everybody. Mm-hmm What line is this from roads where we're going? We don't need roads Uh, what's faster? No It's like I think it's like the literally the last line in the movie too It's a classic one of the greatest movies Known if you google it people will say it's one of the only perfect movies really But we're going we don't need roads roads where we're boom john nailed it and season of the witch What back to the future back to the future. He's got it. There we go. John. Everybody's nailing it. Well done. See classic classic One of the best movies ever So we have some superglue and some tape to make sure that nothing escapes. Well done Um, I'm going to trim this tiny bit. Okay, so underneath this silica sand. We have a whole bunch of flowers drying Because we want to try and get Perfect results like these two bigger. Yeah, those are so good. They turn out really well, man. Yeah We're there. We're there. I've always wondered how people do this and then you got it too. Nice I'm gonna cut that even more. Okay, you cut that I'm gonna go and I show Laura Laura wants to see if things are dropping off See, yeah, there is some drips coming down But as far as the resin stays on there nicely and looks really good just brings out the wood and brings out the clarity in the casting resin nice I'm good. We'll show it to you next week the final results and maybe we'll get the lamp Oh, that that'll be fun for everybody. We'll show you a lamp that we can light up Next week we go dark Oh, really that next week. We'll see No, if we go dark, doesn't that mean you're actually for a play that means you're not On so no, we'll be live Okay, let's do that. Okay. I don't know if this will float or sink. I'm not sure But we're just gonna put in the compression tank and see where it comes out later. D ID Just see what happens To make matt resin. Oh, we have matt resin. There is a video actually Look it up. Laura on on our youtube page. There is our youtube channel There is a video on how to make matt versus shiny resin It's two o'clock. Okay. I don't know. So let's put this on Um, okay Bye, Rebecca saying bye. There's a meeting going Unfortunately, we got to stop the fun. Yeah, we'll get this going. Okay It's not terrifying if you know what you're doing You saw an owl image in the larger wood lamp really I don't know. Maybe one of our wood lamps someone saw like a I'm sort of a Owl kind of I guess In one of our lamps. I think someone saw it. Oh cool See you Miriam. Bye. Okay. Oh, yeah, I know it does that Mickey Mouse ears. I know That wasn't really good. Oh, thanks. Okay. So we turn this on Boom that open this close this boom And now we'll see this pressure start to go up Or not And now we'll see this pressure start to go up Right Am I crazy We're all a little crazy. Boom. There you go. See look at that Dave grace under pressure Okay, I gotta go. Okay. Bye everyone. Thanks for watching. That's always fun, and we always get to make stuff So thank you very much. Have a great and safe and happy game See you
