One sleepless night and I asked myself how can I DIY an inflatable, then I found your video. Thank you, now I can sleep in peace
Me right now
2023 and I have still not found someone making inflatables until I came across this 😮👍
Exactly
Its rare indeed
Which LED light can we use inside the inflatable??
I have not tried this, but there is rip-stop nylon made for sail-boats and is also used by the kite making people. It has a coating to inhibit air flow through the fabric. This will be MUCH more durable than plastic table cloth. I think they simply sew the seams, and just accept that there will be a little air escaping through the seams. I also recall that there is a product for tent making, called "Seam sealer", that is applied to the sewn seams. But, this was many years ago, so I don't know if it is still around.
YOU ARE A GENUIS!!!! i never thought ot plastic table cloth i nearly bought this expensive plastic befor i saw this vid
Hey, do you know if there’s any patterns anywhere for inflateables
Such an innovative young man! I see you doing something in engineering and/or owning your own business some day. Good luck to you! And, thanks for the video!
I mean, maybe he already is a business owner or engineer?
This is amazing, just what I was looking for, thanks! Do you have a link to the type of fans you're using?
Dude, you Nailed it. Shit just changed my whole life, rn.
Love this! How do you make attachments so you can tie it down so it won’t blow away outside.
I have been searching for something like this. I was getting ready to place orders overseas but thankfully I decided to do one more quick search. Thanks for the great tips
I made a inflatable for Christmas!! I made two candy canes!! They.. Look....AMAZING it did take a very long time but it was very worth it!!
Hey, can you tell me how you stopped the air from coming?
thank you! the kids and i have been trying to make inflatable planets from shower curtains but we couldn't figure out how to do the seams... (love the coke can too!) ;)
How can I make a fan? A small one
Hola me podrias decir que puedo utilizar para que mi inflable navideño infle ya ke lo lave y ya no kiere inflar todomuchas grasias

Exist a group of people who love inflatable thing decorate things toys animals beach balls for mě And a lot of people Are inflatable toys mean of life ❤
Do you know if the table cloth has PVC or chloride in it ?
I want to make a large black cat to fitbinside a bed truck
How do you attach the fan to the inflatable?
Also like to know
Cool! But... how would one make a ball shape out of it?
Look at beach balls for reference! They're made up of long diamond shapes.
Exactly, perfect reference
How do you add loops to secure them to the ground? Also, how did you attach the fans?
Is there a 3D rendering program you recommend to figure out shapes and how they would tentatively inflate?
If you’re talking about patterning it, you could make a small scale model out of clay, which you would then put tape over and draw on pattern lines, which you will then scale up to size.
You could use rhino, and use a grasshopper script using kangaroo to inflate.
This is awesome.... now to make a 12 foot stay puff
3 point swish shot for the gays.
Thanks, boss!
You have such a positive energy! :)
Nice!
DUDE IM GOING TO SAVE SO MUCH MONEY THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Do you do this professionally?
. I from the Netherlands and I am not sure if we have this material at our country.
We want to make a decor for a musical whit these inflatables. I was wondering if you could give me a link to the correct material. Or maybe send a small sample ( off-course i pay for the cost)
Sorry I took so long to reply. It's just your standard plastic table cloth. Here is a link to a large roll of it from party city.

If you don't have a party city, any type of colored plastic works. You can also make it out of plastic drop-cloth and spray paint it the colors you need.
Thanks a lot! I was wanting a video to instruct me on how to make some cheaper Christmas decorations!
Thanks so much for this!! I'm doing a Doctor Who Christmas and wanted to make a large evil snowman, but there aren't any inflatable snowmen without any extra decoration. I'm just not sure about adding a fan and lights. Could you take the fan and lights from a store bought inflatable and use it with one of these homemade ones?
Hey! I wanna make an inflatable dress so I was wondering how to let the air into the shape.. using a fan & tubes? how do you attach the tubes?
Inflatables are normally made from polyester material and are made for years of use. Thin plastic doesn't sound long lasting or weatherproof but what a really great idea for something temporary.
I’d love to learn how to make inflatable :)
My main thing is I usualy follow instructions so these videos are always great
what type of fan do you use ?
I just used a simple box fan from Walmart.
@@imagineeringeveryday2370 do you have a picture of one as I live in the UK
Yo, I’m gonna make the giant bread monster from Team Fortress 2
This video deserves so much more attention well this entire channel actually! Soooo underrated
Wow I always want to ty
Can you make a Turkey and scare Crow Thanksgiving Inflatable
Brilliant!! I would have never taught about plastic table cloth.. your freakin smart.. im soo subscribing..
Great for my halloween haunt but how do you make animation on these inflatables? Would like to know
Thank you so much for this video ❤
can they stand alone? Without needing a constant fan?
No, sorry. It needs a constant fan. But you would be surprised, once it's inflated, it doesn't need that large of a fan to keep it up.
i love this and i love you for posting it! thank you!
THANKS MAN! wE FINNA REET NATTIES
I see this post is pretty old and not sure if I will get a response. I am attempting to construct a Snorlax Style costume for my 4 year old son. I wonder how I go about ironing the seems and if I should make patterns pieces and put them together or try to minimize the seems.
It depends on the complexity of the costume. I try to stray away from too complex geometry when doing inflatables because it can get pretty wonky if I mess up, and there is really no way to test it until you are finished, however if you are confident with your pattern then I say go for it. I found that using a mini iron was best for more complex projects. However, if you find a vinyl or rip stop nylon like they use for tents, you can also use a sewing machine and it is still pretty air tight with a fan.
nice!
Omg I'm making a titanic
Let me know when you finish! I totally want to see it!
Light 💡 Grey Inflatable
Good job! Can you install valves?
could you link to the type of table cloth? was it a plastic disposable type? or will any lightweight polyester/synthetic work?
Can it stay inflated? Without a fan like a balloon
Great job! I'm going to try this. Thanks.
How strong is the table cloth compared to a store brand pool floaty?
Not strong at all. The pool floaty are a thicker vinyl. The table cloth can be poked and stretched easier. But it isn’t super weak, I find that I can set the inflatable up at an event about 5-6 times before they really start to break.
Wow, what a great to idea!
Dope. Thank you
I was thinking of taking it in a pool or something
I just love you!
For me
So glad I found your channel.
I love you, so adorable
Quick Question: Do you need to vent the air at all (ex: will the inflatable over-inflate) or have you never had an issue with that?
No, I have never had an issue with that. Usually the fan will only inflate to a limit. It doesn't have enough power to make the items pop.
Ok. Thank you. I was looking to do a custom inflatable Baymax and I didn't want any burst issues. I will have to make sure I get a decent fan that doesn't push out too many CFM. Thanks for the response. Keep up the great work!
I wanted to make inflatable Pokemon but I was just wondering 1: where did u get the plastic table cloth 2 : how did u close it off after you inflated it without the air coming out of it
So I get the plastic tablecloth from the dollar store, and I get big rolls of it from places like Party City for larger projects. You can also find it cheaper on Amazon too. And I don't actually close it off when I'm done. I just leave the fan running. The plastic isn't air tight so i can't inflate it like a beach ball. It's more like the inflatable snowman you set up for Christmas outside. You could try finding yellow trash bags to make the Pokemon out of. Those are more air/water tight and would work in a pool. And you could always use the end of a ziplock bag to seal it closed once you fill it with air.
@@imagineeringeveryday2370 ok but how does it not blow away if it's not attached? I don't know if I'm being dumb lol but I've never seen a lawn inflatable up closer so I don't know. You use dryer vents I see that but if you just put it under the inflatable isn't it going to blow away? I must be missing something? Thank you, it's a great idea.
I'm going to do gengar this year! How did yours turn out?
@@jeanblaaa i never actually ended up making mine but i hope your gengar turn out great!!
nice!
Brilliant! I love it!
