My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.
hey @TheCrafsMan I used to make my own homemade electronic circuit boards using this etching technique, printing a circuit and applying to a copper plate..
But instead of a heat gun, we used a regular clothes iron. Copper plate squeezed between some paper towels and iron them together.
So applying pressure, while heating makes the ink grip on to the copper better.
Crafsman! Just wanted to let you know, my wife wanted a necklace and I thought to myself, "Crafsman done shown me that cabochon how to." Thanks to you, I was able to make the necklace she was wanting and she loves it! Thank you kindly, your videos inspire!
YES, ETHAN! YES INDEED! Way to go, my man. Thank you for this. Stuff like this really boosts me!
Very solid Ethan. Great job dude.
Squiii! What a sweet gift!!!
That is awesome!!! Way to go.
🙂Crafsman is so cool
This is not only educational, it is pure delight!

*thangs
:D Just get to goin' with it, my friend! Having some crafs made is a good feeling! Thank you so much for the comment!
And Patrick Hook - I cracked up at that reply! ;)
Oh hahahaha... Loving ur comment here.
I still believe that you are Steven Segall and that’s why you were gloves, to conceal your to your identity. Well played!🧤❤️👍
So just nobody gonna say it? Ok !
Thanks dude, you help my anxiety and my depression, whenever you make a video it always gives me a laugh or a smile, thank you for all the stuff you do, and teaching me to do some crafs!
This is so wonderful to hear, but also makes me a little sad, to know that you deal with those things. I may talk about it one day, but I also have generalized anxiety disorder. To know that I can help someone is a HUGE deal to me, my friend. Thank you for taking time out to let me know this.
:,)
Iv been driving my family crazy talking about everything thecrafsman does
Same😂😂
Hahaha me tooooo
I smiled big reading this! :D Thank you for telling your family about The Crafsman!
Right?! He's the best most wholesome, entertaining and educational thang on the internet
Hehe Alright👌😀💯
"Cause it says Stainless steel" 😂😂. Great video Crafsman. Thanks for sharing.
;) Thanks, Ken! (And for real... that was how I knew it was S.S.)
Up on it!
......I wish TheCrafsman was my teacher back in high-school school... cause you KNOW I be SteadyCraftin alllll day!
Ha! Mannnnn, I appreciate that so much!
I realised when the crafsman was asking “you see?” I was nodding hahaha
Hahaha! I like that! :D Thank you for watching!
Keep doing what you doing. You the Bob Ross of etching
LMBO!
So I’m not the only one who reacts to crafsman asking me questions !? Haha . He’s my Dora the explorer .
absolutely!
I homeschool kids and they love your videos for content and how you speak. We enjoy learning from each video. The 1970's bike lunch box is killer! Thank you for posting.
Thanks so much, Mrs. Rebecca! I'm so glad to hear you and your kids like my videos! :D That does my heart good, for real.
Rebecca Eddy stop
*I could listen to you read the phone book. I love your videos sooooooo much!!!!!*
Thank you, Jennifer! I was about to start typing out random names and numbers, as if I was reading the phone book, but then I decided to just say that I thought about doing it. ;)
1. This was educational and the stuff you made was cool, as always. 2. I love it when you show the imperfections of the process cuz all real crafters know that projects only come out the way you planned 32% of the time. 3. Bless you for this fine video (with the dog barking!) on this sad, cold, grey day in the northeast 🙏🏻👍🏻💙
So very kind of you. Thank you for watching, AND for the delightful comment. I truly appreciate you! And yessir, I decided to not edit out my messups, because otherwise it might look to someone who tries this like they should get it right on the FIRST try, and that doesn't always happen. :)
I’ve just watched a re-run of painting legend Bob Ross. You are his crafting child reborn for a new generation. Uncanny! Your voice is sooo soothing.
The Crafsman should be auditioning for voice work in film and movie animations. You would certainly get lots of parts. The voice you use with your hand puppet is really entertaining.
There are cheers around the house when there's a new Crafsman video. Loved this one. Thanks my friend.
I do get the same peace that I would have watching Mr. Rogers do picture-picture.
I loved his field trips: to the music store, the crayon factory, the symphony. He was the best.
I'm glad my kids have you. You talk to your audience like they're intelligent just like Mr. Rogers did. He never talked down even though he was most times talking to 5 year olds. Plus, I can sit and watch and get as much enjoyment and education as my kids do. Can't do that with kid's programing anymore.
Wow... this is such a humbling, encouraging comment. I never get tired of hearing things like this. It does my heart good. And I have a long way to go, to ever get to the level Mr. Fred Rogers was at. But man, this helps me a lot. Thank you, Kento!
9:16 “Imma stick this by the microphone so you hear what it sound like” [dog barks]
Dang, that’s strong etching solution.
HAHAHAHAHA! :D :D :D
😆 someone with my sense of humor!
Why am I reading all the comments in TheCrafsMan’s voice? 🤷🏾♂️😂 That voice is 🌬❄️🥶
Keith Archie Very Bob Ross like
That ATARI logo you made is CLEAN!
Thank you! I wanted to show y'all the "mess ups" too, to let you know to keep trying at it. I like it the best out of the ones I did. It helps to have a nice, clean design, too. :) Thank you for watching!
"CrafsMan, you messed me up!"
No worries, your instructions are very clear! I like your everyday examples, like "don't go eat a sandwich" because that is exactly the kind of mistake I would make.
:) Glad you enjoyed it, my friend!
Anyone else watch his videos to fall asleep. Love his mellow Bob Ross style narration and I end up having to watch the video a second time to finish it . Keep it up craftman love your work
Jason s o/
This is the first crafsman video I ever found and now I’m hooked
I love thecrafsman! When I can't sleep at night, I watch his videos just to listen to his voice but end up getting too excited to try out his awesome techniques!!!! I can listen to you all day!
Although I'm not a fan about anyone not being able to sleep, I do like this comment! Thank you so much.
You’re the literal best, craftsman
Oh mercy - too kind! Thank you!
"Riddler tape"
"Attorney emerald green"
The auto-caption is pure gold. Just like his super-villian jazz voice.
The only one to give me a non-electricity etching style, and such smooth and relaxing tones. I know which channel I’ll be binge watching for a good while.
The Bob Ross of craftin.
This is the first video I have seen that you have produced. It is, by far, One of the best instructional DIY videos I have seen.
You shared a lot of information in a way that it is easy to understand for every layman - alternative diy chemicals, prep and maintenance methods, safety issues.Needless to say, I am more than impressed. Thank you! ❤
Already! And 20 Minutes?! Perfect for the end of a Monday.
Peter Ernest Go Pats!
:D Thank you for watching!
Mr Crafsman, I found your channel a week ago in doing some research for an idea I've had in my head for a years. Not only have I been soothed and entertained by your heart and charisma, as well as educated in numerous interesting endeavors I otherwise would likely never have been exposed to, but I have been moved and inspired to begin working on that long-imagined project and I can't wait to share the results with you as your wisdom and heart have a hand in this coming to be! I hope you and your family are enjoying safety and peace and I wish you abundance and success as you keep on steady craftin. Be well, friend.
Oh my! Wasn't expecting the incredible sock puppet, instantaneously smiling and laughing. You just made my day CrafsMan. I rarely ever feel the need to voice my opinion in the comments but damn, your uploads are just too good.
Sure glad you enjoyed it, my friend! Thanks for taking time out to encourage me!
This is not what I was looking for, but I got into it and couldn't stop watching. I enjoyed your vid man.
@TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin THANK YOU. I have been searching for a solid week on a good way to get started with a scalable, DIY way to make enamel pins at home and here it is!
Chris, I'm really happy to hear this! :D I hope you have fun with it!

;) Thank you for watching!
im just here to listen to Crafsman talk. I can't get enough.
Whoever cares my recipe for a happy day is a Craftsman video, a bob ross episode, and some tiger king memes. I have so much love for the craftsman channel! Is there fan merch? Thank you for your amazing ASMR type of relaxation and educational content! I love you craftsman! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm probably old enough to be your Grandma and I get the biggest kick out of all of these interesting ideas. I'll likely not ever have a 3 d printer but I might do some metal casting and definitely am learning to solder. Thanks for the fun and informative videos.
My man ! I started doing some simple clay sculpt / silicone mold / resin cast stuff just out of boredom and lack of creative outlet due to covid ! ( I’m a tattooer usually ) . You have showed me SO MUCH MORE I can do ! I absolutely LOVE this channel and would love to support it more .
I've been etching circuit boards with the DIY mix for years, and I've also used it to do some small designs in aluminum in the past. What I did *not* know is that it will also etch stainless, and that is wonderful information to have in my arsenal. It never even would have occurred to me to try it. Thank you for teaching me something today! :-)
Glad this video was useful to you! It was a big deal for me to learn that the same etching techniques I'd been using for copper can be used for stainless. I have MUCH more stainless steel material laying around. :)
Muriatic or more correctly, hydrochloric acid, is a very strong acid that has mild reactivity because of the lack of an oxidant. Once you incorporate an oxidant, hydrochloric acid will attack most metals except silver.

You mean, Master Sergeant Robert “Bob” Ross, United States Air Force, retired?
Glad you went over how to dispose properly. Never see other people telling you how to dispose of etching acids.
I appreciate that! I did mention to "look it up" as well, because I want people to learn more about that. As said, I never throw mine out, but keep adding to it. I have the space to do that. But some people may want to actually dispose of it, and this is for them. I hope it helps! Thank you for watching!
Thank you for mentioning the responsible disposal of the acids. Love your vids 👍
Crafsman, I could have sworn you did a video like this in the past but when I went back to your video list I couldn't find it.
On top of this, the second oldest video I could see there, about transferring photos to metal, after the old weathering wood video, said that it was in response to questions about a previous wood photo transfer episode that I can remember watching but that is now similarly unlisted.
Why have you gotten rid of these great videos? They mightn't be as professional as your more recent content, but I would consider them much loved videos, especially to early subscribers such as myself.
Please relist them because they are part of your channel's history and a testament to how far you have come.
Yes, please. I sure hope you only made them private and can republicize them, so as not to lose the comments
That's a good question! Actually, I didn't delete them, but simply made them "Unlisted". The reason for that: I've made videos about each topic, using easier techniques. I didn't want someone to sit through the Paper Rub-Off video, for example, and then be like "SNAP! I could have done this transfer with label release paper, and still had time to get to Fred's before they closed!"
While I do receive money from TH-cam for ads being played on my video, I'd rather someone get good information from ONE video, than to have to watch multiple ones to get the best info. :)
I can understand this, however, since TH-cam does allow you to change videos' thumbnails, you could possibly superimpose a label onto their existing thumbnails saying "Old" or something and that way we'd be able to binge on your content and new viewers would still be able to get the most updated content. Alternatively, you could make a playlist of unlisted videos only accessible through the playlists tab.
@@TheCrafsMan well, if the subscribers can convince you to relist, maybe you can edit the description or something stating a steadier version is available. :)
If you would pretty please make your videos ALSO available to be purchased through your Etsy or direct from your workshop, we wouldn't have to worry about our favorite videos gong unlisted... Sometimes it isn't the technical content that makes a video a favorite... It is the CrafsMan-isms and the 'oh-snap!' gems! I can see it on the horizon.... The CrafsMan SteadyCraftin', Volume 1. ( Merry Christmas to US...???)
The hand puppet really adds to the charm, and my giggles.
You deserve an award for the help you give
"CrafsMan, you mess me up" I couldn't stop laughing at that.
:D Glad you enjoyed that!
Crafsman! Your channel is awesome in it's range. Your Crafs Fu is strong.
Thank you, Joel! I've been practicing my board-breaking and ironing my... kimono? What do they call the karate uniform? The "dojo" is the place. But the... outfit deal. I know there's a name for it.
Suit.
Karate suit.
@@TheCrafsMan I think its a gi, but honestly, that's just movie knowledge. Keep on doing your thing cause it's awesome.
You are phenomenal! I love how you experiment, showing the various results. I also like your soft gentle voice. Thank you for making the beginner "wannabe's" a place to start and different methods and results to try. Even the ones that don't always turn out like expected or hoped. The fact that you start small, thus offering encouragement to continue trying/without a large sum of money being wasted.
Man, When you started to talk, It took me back to the 70's livin in SE DC. THEN you broke out the Atari 2600!! I was transported back! Thanks Brotha!!! Good times!
I love when you're voice breaks character. I feel like sherlock Holmes piecing together what you sound like in real life! Haha love your vids 🖤
;) One day I'm going to do a video of my different Crafsman voices. It depends on the time of day, what I'm doing (relaxed, keyed up) and other factors. Coffee might play into it too. ;)
One part where I'm showing y'all the label release paper... I laugh because I sound different there than in the rest of the video.
Hey Crafsman! Love the channel!
I'm a printmaking college student that's been etching copper in ferric chloride for just a short while, love seeing the ingenuity in the DIY side of it, especially since I'd like to continue my intaglio stuff when I leave and might not have a studio like I've got access to now.
We call this method of etching an "open bite" because of all the open surface getting eaten away, and we like to use vinyl contact paper to make little cutout shapes (just like the stuff you put in drawers and on shelves when you wanna protect them)
Can't wait to try the press n peel on a plate sometime! Seems a lot easier than how we do photo transfers onto plates, with a lot of photosensitive stuff involved.
Oh! If you wanna be able to use your etchant for a very long time you shouldn't let different types of metals be in the same container because it'll make your acid really weak with lil particles making weird chemical reactions
My professor told me that same thing that a lot of people that use the fish bubbler thing, but they find after a while that their bubbler stops working and their acid doesn't work so well either, probably because there's some metal bits in most of the machines
she also told me some people in really high altitudes have a fire/heater going on underneath their acid tanks to make sure it bubbles real good with heat, and they don't have to put their plates in there quite so long because it etches so much faster
We don't have anything that fancy in our new studio just yet, but if you dunk your copper in vinegar it'll also clear out the oxidation real fast and you can pop it right back into the acid for about the same effect as dabbing it away
Lavender Rathman: Thank you so much for watching, my man! And thanks also for the feedback/tips! I like reading things like this. I've got PLENTY of room to learn, and you're helping me! I'd never heard of not mixing metals in etchant, but hearing you describe that, it makes total sense. All the best to you in college, my friend! Thanks again for watching and commenting!
@@TheCrafsMan I know this is an old video, but I have two questions that I'd love to get answers for.
#1; how did you become so awesome!? I love your content! 2020 has been a crazy year and you help restore my faith in people.
#2; requires some preamble. I work in a kitchen, and the knives we have are trash (as far as maintenance and care). I watched the owner throw a $130.00 knife in the trash because it was no longer functional. I took it out and bought some sharpening stones, and after many hours of painful mistakes and practice that knife is now the best one in the kitchen. I want to etch my initials on it, but it's bad for the steel to heat it. Do you have any recommendations for transferring images that don't require heating the metal?
If I get a reply I am very grateful, and if I do not I'm still a winner because I have learned some new things in a very enjoyable setting. You rock Crafsman!!
This channel is teaching me that it's ok to make mistakes as long as you stay steady craftaaayn
I really love your videos. Slow, steady. easy. You make anyone feel empowered to make things... not just junk glued together, but impressive creative gifts and handy items. I learn so much from you. Thank you !
Thanks, crafsman! Have a great day!
Hope you enjoyed it, Kasey! :D
“Might don’t use one from 1952!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You’re the best crafsman!
This was a really cool tutorial! I learned some new stuff!
Thanks for sharing.
We need some steady craftin magnets up in the Etsy shop!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, Jennifer! :D Thanks so much for watching!
@TheCrafsMan you've got possibly the smoothest voice I've ever heard. I love watching your videos to help with going to sleep, plus I learned better methods of etching rather than using electric. Thanks, CrafsMan! I hope to watch your work for many years to come.
Where has this been all my crafting life? I have been binging your channel all day. Thanks for the inspiration and entertainment to keep me “steady crafting!”
another thing you could do for hand made designs is paint the whole thing with nail polish, then use an awl or scratcher or a small screwdriver or even just somethin like a nail to scratch off the paint and draw you a little design all of your own :)
That's a GREAT idea! Much easier than trying to paint the negative spaces!
Just in time for me to try making jewelry for the holiday season! Thank you Crafsman!
Yesss! Glad to be of service! :D
I just want you to know you made my day and I said a prayer for you and your family! You're AWESOMESAUCE 🎉
You are a human treasure, thanks I can get up to so many more things now!
You always hit me right in my phi-bro Nostalgia. lol. Its Berzerk that your OEM Generation 1 Atari works!
Thanks for the etching tips. I was expecting some vinegar/salt/9v battery level stuff- but You went and broke out the FeCl3, H202 and HCl !
Whoooooo Weeeeeee!
Thanks brother! Always enjoy your show.
SNAP! Jay Pocket throwing some chemistry thangs my way, makin' me duck for cover! LOL!
I appreciate you, Jay - always. I'm glad that old Atari still works. Was surprised myself last year or so when we got it out of storage and fired it up. :D
I recently discovered your channel and I have bing watched almost all of your videos! I love how informative you are and of course I, like everyone else here, love your voice. I was raised in Kentucky so I too love my sweet tea and biscuits with honey. Thanks for all your time and effort that you put into these videos and keep on steady craftin! We love you!
Christiane (very nice name!)... thank you SO much! This kind of comment really warms my heart! My wife and I enjoy reading words like yours more than y'all know. :D
Almost like Bob ross, thanks for the video
I am genuinely stunned to see that you don’t have more subscribers.
I’m no soothsayer but I truly believe that you’re about to have a bit more traffic soon.
That video was incredible. Seriously.
You’re a prime teacher. Thanks.
Thank you so much for that, my friend! Glad you found my channel, and hope you continue to hang out! Many thanks!
Let me be one more human being to sing your praises! You are so awesome. You crack me up yet inspire me. So happy to have found your channel. Sending love and light from Sedona!
I truly appreciate that! It's encouraging to me, more than you may know. :)
Yay a new video! The best part of my day! I'm not ashamed
That makes me feel special. Thank you!
Great work as always!
Thank you, my friend! :)
I love this guy. he deserves every penny or dollar he earns from me as a paid subscriber.The Crafsman Rocks.
Great video, thank you. You are the Bob Ross a Patrick.
my name is your host....
*the crafsman*
Deviant dachshund doppelganger!
LOL! :D :D :D :D :D
Every time. It's my second favorite thing about his videos. First favorite? His videos.
Yeeeeeeeee
You have to say the whole thing.... like A Tribe Called Quest. Your Host the Crafsman.
Dude, I was about to go to sleep and I got a notification that the Crafsman uploaded a video!
Went to sleep 20 min later....... hope I'll wake up for work on time.
Exelent video Crafsman!
:) Mannnnnn, I hope you made it to work okay and that Dean wasn't upset!
I'm going out on a limb and saying your boss' name is DEAN.
@@TheCrafsMan LOL....actually his nam is Simon but I'll start calling him Dean from now on 😂
Love u so much. My grandkids think your are a guy on cartoons. We love your voice and u are funny and smart. Thanks for teaching us
I have no projects at all that would require any metal etching whatsoever. But I'm watching this video just because I like listening to this man instruct me on various procedures.
Are we gonna get a petina video?! I think that's the most beautiful thing especially with etched material
I've got that in my little video ideas text file, my man! :D
Randall Johnson, do you mind if I reference you in a patina video?
Something like "My man Randall Johnson asked for a video like this."
@@TheCrafsMan I'd be honored!
10-4, my man! Thanks so much!
*patina
I thought I was watching Dr T. ASMR for a second there. lol Your voice is calming though.
Soothing voice and great detail. “don’t use a magazine from 1952” ha!
I love this craft! This might be a great way to make PERMANENT garden labels for my rose garden!
Hey Kimberly! :D Yes... it's hard to beat that etching. When it's set INTO the metal like that, all that seems to happen next is it just gets prettier as it ages and the patina changes. :)
best voice
ever. is their a patron page, or some way i can pay you to record a bed time story for me???!!!
He has a patreon
Heck yeah!!
Great work.
12:10 You can get rid of the bubbles and particles with a feather instead of paper.
GREAT tip! Thank you!
That voice...silky smooth...chill, man... I could listen all day!
I don't know who you are, but you make the best videos on YT!!! You are awesome! Thank you for so much enjoyable learning.
Hold up Crafsman!
Why’re there no Steady Craftin™️ magnets in the Etsy shop?
Aww, snap! :/ Y'all would like that?
@@TheCrafsMan Yep!!!!!!
crafsman, i’m tellin you rn, id pay a good amount of money for a lil steadycraftin medallion
I'll keep that in mind! :D
This is the best tutorial I have ever seen. The narration is phenomenal, especially with the extra little tips to keep in mind during the process. I'll definitely be coming back to this channel for more tutorials
By far the best etching video. I’ve seen many, and you make it fun and not a complicated chemistry project. I want to do some etching NOW! 😀😀😀😀
You never throw out the ferric chloride? What do you do with the spent etchant?
I have a larger container that I pour the smaller ones into. The metal sludge settles at the bottom. I'll gently pour out the stuff on top into a smaller etching container and keep using it.
That head circle you made after saying stainess steeeeeeel hahahah
Hahaha! Thank you for watching!
Hey... howcome you don't have a million subscribers? Your sculpting videos are exceptional. I know I mentioned before about your videos, but here I go mentioning it one more time. :)
Thank you carfsman it mean so much to me 😭. My videos are not as entertaining than yours 😣 and im using just a low resolution camera. Im hoping that youtube algo would pick up my vids.
But still you inspire me alot Mr.Crafsman. you are unique that is why we follow u coz we love you
I can just see the Muppet say somethin like....that knife is ssstttainlessss stteeeeelll....it'll cut dis styrfoam ssssmmmmoooth😀😀😀
These are the smooth tones, I desire!
Thanks, Carl! :D Always good to hear from you!
@@TheCrafsMan you're welcome, sir.
Your humor is spot on and I'm an angry troll.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for giving one of my videos a chance! :D
Hey crafsman, can you show me how to carve things out of rock? Like little figures or even just simple shapes to polish up?
That would be a fun challenge! Thank you for asking!
kids these days don't know the atari magic
Mine do now, because they saw it on The Crafsman.
I like to bring in old* things like this, to give people a glimpse back in the day.
*I say "old", but a lot of this doesn't feel THAT old. :)
This guy knows what’s up! I played yars revenge until my thumbs hurt and I still have no idea what I accomplished. At least in combat and pitfall I knew where I stood. Yars revenge made no sense and yet i persevered, like a true hero.
Sterba70 I wanted dig dug and Popeye but I was poor. I did have asteroids though and it was great. I would get upset when I’d accidentally move my character as it was best (for me) to stay in the center and death blossom all the space rocks. Great, now I Need to find me another 2600.
Sterba70 did we just become best friends?
Oh, the feels when he opens that drawer. Crafsman, you are awesome.
Your organic border that you did with two layers of marker actually looked more organic because of the small areas where it let the etchant through. I thought it looked very nice, but agree that it could have used a little longer in the bath. I absolutely love your videos. Your smooth talkin' and all your references to G.I. Joe, Thundercats, and all the other things I remember from my childhood, are like a big safe blanket tent where the shy little kid I used to be, and the big tattooed guy I am today, can come out together and play , and learn. This crazy world we all live in, is a better place because of you Crafsman. You better believe that we gonna keep on SteadyCraftin
You should make the free range chicken your mascot 😂😂
100% agreed
no make a better mascot
you have the potential
Thanks, y'all! :D
nice channel!!
did you ever tried photosensitive ink as a resist?
its ultra precise.
you can actually use halftone meshs to create smooth edges.
like you explained, the closer the dots come together the faster the solved metall mud will stuck between those dots, wich leads to diffrent depths.
you can actually round off everything by etching without any resist at all.
ferric acid is perfect for that.
with this Ink you are also able to create multiple layer etchings.
share you knowledge its EPIC
I appreciate the information here, Wavy Gravy! Also, I like your name so much!
I'm going to pin your comment so other people can maybe pick up a couple extra techniques, and so people can see "Wavy Gravy". How did you come up with that? If it's personal, you don't have to answer. It's just a phenomenal name.
@@TheCrafsMan :) thanks man, the name is taken from a music compilation ive purchased more or less by accident,
loved the artwork and then discoverd these nice tracks mixed with 60s commercials :).
Bit trashy but i like it
here a link maybe you enjoy it to th-cam.com/video/9SD1GhVo3Hk/w-d-xo.html
Hope this person is a formal teacher somewhere or indeed someone teaching teachers. Mad skillz
Dude, I sent this to two other guys and I said you’re not gonna believe this, this guy uses a puppet, a dog gone puppet, and it’s one of the best dang videos most interesting that I’ve seen yet, did I mention he uses the dag on puppet
4:45 putting the herdy gerdy on it!
You know it, Etan! LOL! ;)
Great tutorial craftsman! That Atari etching is awesome, will it be on your etsy? If you can't tell from my name, I am a huge Atari fanboy. Great video bro.
Hello there! Glad you liked it! I remembered seeing an Atari name from one of y'all on here! Glad you enjoyed that. I wasn't sure about selling those, because of it being their brand and all. :/
@@TheCrafsMan Makes sense bud. Thanks for responding.
''and then you come to me.. Craftsman you messed me up'' ahahahahahahahahahahahaha
I laughed so hard at this, you are great man you are something like a crafting Jim Henson
Very detailed and informative! I love how you experimented at the end with different papers.
