If you use a bit of baking powder with the superglue you create a really durable plastic like substance you can sand smooth. This should strengthen the bond between magnet and pipe even further. But i bet you knew that already. ;)
I am literally shocked. I was literally looking on your page for this exact type of tutorial for my prop an hour earlier! And you just post this today! Thank you, thank you!
When doing the 4:10 part wear eye protection, don't make my mistake!!! I had an accident this summer doing exactly that. Super glue got into my eye and that wasn't very pleasant. Lost about a week healing, and now I"m not allowed to wear contacts for a year. P.S. I failed to make it properly and now I have two-meter inseparable mage"s staff.
I didn't know what cosplay is, and I don't even really play video games. But TH-cam recommended your channel to me (for some reason?) Well I've now watched every single video you ever posted and I want to buy your books. Just because I wish the whole world had your personality. Thank you. You are awesome.
This is so helpful! I've made big props before and tried implementing this method of using different sized pvc pipes with magnets, but having it all laid out answers a lot of questions!
Hello Svetlana, my 7 years old girl asked me to create an armor to become a "warrior princess" (obviously it has to be pink!!!) and I would like to realize it to make her happy. I would like to use some simple material like fabric and "yoga-matress" foam. Can you please make a video to help me in this project? I think it will be great for all the parents that want to make their childrens happy...it would be a way to strenghten the bonds between father/mother and childrens... Thanks...BTW you're doing a great job with your videos...thank for all the things that you're teaching us...
This looks very cool and useful! I’m just a bit confused about how the two magnets don’t end up glued together. Is it because superglue doesn’t stick to the packing tape?
Def might do for my Galo matoi prop! The top and streamers are removable as well as the bottom will be in 2.0 but the pole itself isn't so it's pretty long.
Lol I have this problem so much but with my actual costumes because I incorporate wire into basically _everything_ to make sure it's all shaped correctly and then when it comes to storage I'm just like, "maybe I can just keep it on the floor and step around it?" Haha
Awesome tips and video. This will really help when I make my Wonder Woman sword shortly. Haven't been doing cosplay for very long and already running out of room 😂
omg this is literally what i've been waiting for >~< but is there any way to seperate a giant sword? because these pipes would be kinda too thick for that
I've been watching your videos a lot lately in preparation for making a bow for a con this autumn and I had 2 questions: 1. Is the magnet method the best for making a bow or is there a different/better way you store your prop bows? 2. Does the prop stay together even when you wave it around like a lunatic? (I want to gauge how much abuse/strain it can take so I know whether to be super careful with it or not)
im curious about the second question as well. i made one of my shitty old weapons with this method, and it stays even if i shake it. however, it's also very light, so i'm not sure if it's the same for heavier props. i'll be making another prop using this method, and this one is a greatsword so i'll update you if it stays put!
@@luchinosimp any update on this? I'm wondering if its a good method stable enough to use for something like Guts' Dragonslayer or if I should go with threaded PVC pipes instead.
Ill do this when i rebuild Banryu from Inuyasha (really big sword. Almost 2 meters and i did use the metric system for easier math for scale) i used pvc and corresponding screw pieces of pvc. Ill try the magnets next time.
This helped a lot, I'm making a pyramid head cosplay as a commission and the sword is huge. This helps. How would you suggest i could make the head detachable and attach together? thanks
would you have to build the prop around the connecting parts? unless its really so simple as just drilling holes and gluing the pipes in after make the prop
How much weight can those magnets hold? I tried using magnets on a prop i was making and i guess my magnets werent strong enough so im looking into it. Thank you for all you do, youre my inspiration 😊
this looks really helpful!! I was wondering though, would this work for VERY large props that might be heavier than what is shown here? A sword i want to make for a costume is like 8.5 feet long. I was thinking of separating the handle from the blade so avoid visual seams, but the blade would still be over 5 feet long by itself...
Thank you very much for this tutorial. I will definitely use it for my current project. Did you ever have problems with the magnets falling out? It's kinda hard to imagine that the superglue just keeps them in place. Also, is Superglue Kraftkleber in German, or something else?
Is there any tape or glue combination to avoid? Something that may cause a bad fume reaction or “melt” through the tape and causing the magnets to get glued together.
Love the channel, and this was a good video, but I have OCD about proper nomenclature/tool names so I have to nit pick, that's a scroll saw not a band saw.
There is nothing Svetlana can do that anybody with a degree in electrical engineering and years of experience couldn't do ................ or someone with her books and a lot of patience.
Question; in the video you say you use a 1mm x 5mm magnet, but the Amazon link is for 2mm in various sizes? Does it matter which size you use or does it depend on the prop? I'm using 3/4inch and 1/2inch pvc pipe.
leider ist der kleber von barge nicht mehr verfügbar ☹️ gibt es andere alternativen? bei 4:47 das ist doch die musik von Final Fantasy 8 wenn ich mich richtig erinner 😄
I don't have a lot of time for youtubering or gaming so I can't go looking for the vids, so is the sword from mhw a dual blade glavenus? Or what weapon and monster then? I'd like to make it in the game as it looks cool, when I have the time of course
Hmm, is super glue really going to hold metal to plastic? I have to imagine the magnets will rip each other out of their sockets unless they're covered with something else, like I would leave the tape on at the end? hmm
@@KamuiCosplay Ohhh that makes sense. Very cool! when I saw them at the beginning I thought maybe they were holes where you'd insert a pin or something to keep the rods together, but yay magnets!!

Glue got in your eye while putting it on the magnetm
How the glue got in your eye?-

@ 0:54 I like the pixelation, otherwise I get distraught by what the tubes are doing 🧡🧡🧡
Great trick. I like that way better than the press fit.

This is so helpful for my upcoming Pyrrha Nikko's spear! Tysm Svetlana! Luv you! 💞
I hope it actually makes the pop sound
Depending on the width difference between the pvc pipes, yes it does, but obviously a bit lower 😂
WOO!
It does, you can slightly hear it with my Aloy spear in the beginning.
KamuiCosplay my life is complete
I’ve seen enough
I am satisfied
They’re also special PVC glue, it’s a two part designed specifically for bonding PVC.
Wow! I didn't even think of using magnets, that's so smart!!!
Hi, Miss Svetlana! I'm creating my very first cosplay, and your videos are helping out so much! So thank you!
This is super useful! I'm gonna make the Master Sword for my Link cosplay, and I'll make it disassemble
I almost died laughing at the censoring at 0:55 LOL
i'm helping my boyfriend make a huge spear and I was wondering how we were gonna store it lol
Grazie Kamui, ci hai salvato la vita. ✨👌
Honestly i never thought of this before thank you!
Die Idee ist klasse! Danke für den guten Tipp 🙏🏼
Take care of the - and the + side of the magnets!
If they're neodymium, even at 5mm*1mm they'll jump around themselves to mate up.
You are truly a gift omg
Ich liebe es, dass das OBI Bild von dem OBI ist, zu dem ich immer hingeh xDDD LG aus Österreich xD
War das Bild auf Wikipedia haha
Best Reference!
Thank you.

This is great for the double bladed scimitar im making
You can get pvc pipe cutters they making cutting the pipe really easy.
i'm super looking forward to getting one of those shirts
COSTUME IDEA: Uravity from My Hero Academia
OBI is always the best choice 🥳
I love everything you do!!!! Thx for everything
This is why you're the best!
Great information. Thanks for sharing this with us.
This looks very cool and useful! I’m just a bit confused about how the two magnets don’t end up glued together. Is it because superglue doesn’t stick to the packing tape?
I think so, because she removed it immediately afterwards
yup
Def might do for my Galo matoi prop! The top and streamers are removable as well as the bottom will be in 2.0 but the pole itself isn't so it's pretty long.
the link for "PVC Pipes" doesn't work :/
Always good useful tips! One can't have enough of good tips, so thank's a lot! 😁
...I wish I found this tutorial yesterday xD
Muy buena estampa de la remera y muy buen color, excelentes trabajos, saludos desde Argentina.
Thats a very good Tipp, thank you 🖤
Verdammt jetzt hab ich wieder Lust props zu basteln... 😂😂👍
Mach doch! :D
The final fantasy victory music at the end when she pushed the cubby in made my life lol
Very helpful
You made me LOVE cosplay
(Buy her books)

That moment when she insert those pipes.................... inappropriate lmao

Me encanto ese fantástico truco de seguro lo usaré mucho en el futuro 🤩🤩🤩🤩
I'm glad the video wasn't all censored by mosaic 🤣
I love your videos ❤ you guys are so cool

Aa yes!! this came in handy bc i I want a expanding chat noir staff!
Could you show some ways of making axe heads like for a 1 handed or 2 handed axe having second thoughts on my design
Thanks, just what I needed :)
What pipe size you're using? it's so perfectly fit.
As usual you show us awesome tips ^^ thanks for it ^^ The way for placement of magnets in the tube is very usefull ^^. And i like you t-shirt ^^
That’s brilliant!
This is so helpfull! Thank you!
Your vidéos are so helpfull ♥️😍 it's somme little advices but do helpfull 🤯♥️ thanks you do much for all thé advices ! ♥️
So simple but so effective *looks at giant prop in corner* If I had only known before it was made...
is this strong enough to hold up something like a foam hammer head to the handle ?
This helped a lot, I'm making a pyramid head cosplay as a commission and the sword is huge. This helps. How would you suggest i could make the head detachable and attach together? thanks
This is really helpful, so thank you! but the big question is: how does one *add* this to a weapon??
THE SHIRT THING IS GOING TO BECOME THE NEW BUY MY BOOKS!!! I hope buy my books it still going to be there
now I have to decide
I bought all your books to help me, now I need the shirts
would you have to build the prop around the connecting parts? unless its really so simple as just drilling holes and gluing the pipes in after make the prop
So...a video for...PLOPP MAKING. Very helpful, thaaaaanks!
Alles im Obi~ xD
I want to make a machete for Macrophage (Cells at Work), are these magnets strong enough to hold something that will be about 4ft long?
I love this technique bc there is no way to put the wrong magnet sides together by accident ❤
How much weight can those magnets hold? I tried using magnets on a prop i was making and i guess my magnets werent strong enough so im looking into it. Thank you for all you do, youre my inspiration 😊
could you make a tutorial on how to do this when using wooden dowels for a prop
u always make the best content
This is so cool and useful!
Thank you for sharing :3
I love this idea for transportation, but making a shelf to exhibit and show my props off is still too tempting to me xD
this looks really helpful!!
I was wondering though, would this work for VERY large props that might be heavier than what is shown here? A sword i want to make for a costume is like 8.5 feet long.

Great video!! ♡
I might make a big big big prop now. But maybe after I finish other projects
*camera starts zooming in*
"oh, you noticed my t-shirt!"
YES, that was it. Not anything else!
0:53 yes please

you‘re right
Those Monster Hunter weapons make hella jeapous. KÍ know I have neither the skill nor the money to get them myself.

I need to do this for my greatsword
Any clue how I can use this for my Nocturne cosplay?
I mean the Umbrablades are damn massive.
Time for Stygian Zinogre!
I don't have a lot of time for youtubering or gaming so I can't go looking for the vids, so is the sword from mhw a dual blade glavenus? Or what weapon and monster then? I'd like to make it in the game as it looks cool, when I have the time of course
Can you make a Samurai armor
macht weiter so
You always so sweet I love this
Hmm, is super glue really going to hold metal to plastic? I have to imagine the magnets will rip each other out of their sockets unless they're covered with something else, like I would leave the tape on at the end? hmm
Actually they hold pretty well, especially since you have to slide them from each other instead of ripping them apart. :)
@@KamuiCosplay Ohhh that makes sense. Very cool!
when I saw them at the beginning I thought maybe they were holes where you'd insert a pin or something to keep the rods together, but yay magnets!!
