I imagine just finding this on someone’s shelf, asking about it, and seeing them light up at the opportunity to tell someone about the days spent hammering and polishing something just because. 😊
i think there are two reasons the actual Japanese can hammer their balls into shiny masterpieces. 1. their tools, and surfaces, are cleaned and disinfected to the highest of Japanese standards. 2. slick editing.
I used to make these at school using the foil from my lunch, before I was even aware that others did this in Japan. I didn't have a hammer, so I'd use my foot to squash it into shape, then rub it on a smooth surface to polish it a bit.
The weird shape of it actually reminds me of that big public art piece sculpture in Chicago called "Cloud Gate" aka. "The Bean" that's featured in a lot of movies 😄👌🏼
That’s actually so cool I like that u actually made it shiny instead of being like everyone else on the internet saying it fake after sanding for 2 minutes
The davidsjones channel has been a snowboard channel, a fingerboard channel, a science channel (among other things) But it is now officially… A FRICKIN D.I.Y CHANNEL BABY
TH-cam has blessed me by recommending your channel to me. I honestly watched this video and fell in love with your type of content. Keep up the great work
Who would have thought one of the coolest videos on TH-cam right now would be about making tin foil balls? Not me, that’s for sure but I have been proven wrong.🤓
I take my hat off to you bro. That looks so awesome. I'm going to to a foil ball and use it as a paper weight. Well dome for your persistence. Winners never quit and quitters never win. Well done
The best tin foil was the foil in cigarette packs. We used to save all ours and make these tin foil balls. Been doing it for over 30 years, until I quit smoking
Bro true respect to this man. He spent ages making tin foil into a polished ball thats insane. Question David how bored were you to decide to do this for a TH-cam video
8:18 OMG, I feel Ya' bro... Had a traumatic experience with bee's when I was 3 or 4, sooooo... Yeah I am terrified of those damn things. edit: As for the tin foil ball... DAMN That looks awesome.
When he opened that toolbox only to reveal TWO hammers I said to myself, “looks like we’ve got another Jeremy Clarkson in the making.” If ya know, ya know …
I’ve just now got into skating using my brothers skateboard, but I realized that is is too big for me. I’m buying a 31 inch, so could someone tell me what a believable and trustable price is
The length of the board dosent matter to much, you should check the width of the board to decide what size you want. A good deck can be from around 50-65 USD where I live, and a complete is around 100-110
I found that the easiest way to get the best result is to microwave the tinfoil ball for 4-5 minutes. This creates a perfectly smooth sphere and is better than most shown on TH-cam.

This channel feels like a guy just living his best life, having fun with friends while putting a goal to make it look like a video
Wonder what it would look like cut in half, if it would like flat like the surface, or have cracks like 'normal' tin foil.
