ROTO-CASTING Resin | DIY Rotational Casting (Vinyl style figures?)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ส.ค. 2019
- I'm demonstrating the roto-casting process using the Mach1Monkey machine, to make hollow resin casts of light bulbs.
(This may also be a way to make your own hollow vinyl style figures. Play with the resin amounts, to achieve thinner or thicker walls, which will very the flexibility of the object.)

Sounds like a T-shirt design to me my friend.
:) Thanks, buddy!
i would totally wear that on a shirt
Yeah, I like it. Picture of CrafsMan on it - sold.
When I was small and complaining to my mom that I was bored, she'd tell me interesting people find interesting things to do .... you are the perfect example of her words :)
I just love that quote d robyn. May I share your mothers wisdom?
My mom had a similar saying, she would say only boring people sit around and complain about being bored.
“If you’re bored, then you’re boring” -Harvey Danger, Flagpole Sitta
Nice! Thats a great quote, your mom's a smart woman : )
I hope i can remember it so i can tell it to my 10 year old daughter as she complains of boredom just about every day o_O
My dad would just make us do yard work if we complained of boredom. Free manual labor Lol
Smooth-on should support or sponsor this channel for sure. Let’s get this post to the top so Smooth-on can see how many of us want to Stay Steady Caftin!
I could be having the worst day eva and then a new TheCrafsMan video will come out and then I forget my worries and have fun watching the creations
"eva"
Y'all, this video didn't end up 100% how I wanted, due to working on two videos at once, and accidentally deleting the last few clips I shot for this video, while working on the NEXT video. BUT I think there's still enough here to get across how roto-casting works. Here are some examples of where you might use this:
- Vinyl Style Figures
- Helmets (Make a mold of your helmet sculpt, then use the mold to roto-cast the hollow plastic helmet)
- Speaker Housings (Or other electronic housings)
- Any large object where solid resin would make it too expensive or too heavy.
Still a fantastic video! I love the mech-suit you made! So cool!
I think it was great :) besides, I like that you show us imperfect things - it's honestly a breath of fresh air. Thank you for publishing this video today! I can't even tell you how much I needed this .. you brighten my day like no other TH-cam channel can. ❤️❤️❤️
TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin you’re the awesomest!!!
CrafsMan next time you have a bit of cranial flatulence, a utility call photorec can most times get data back from formatted SD cards. It has saved my tail more than once.
I think your video was perfect because of the imperfections. The Japanese call it Wabi-Sabi and it is sometimes described as beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete." Perfection is stressful, so don't stress Crafsman, your video has everything needed to share your ideas.
I ain't gonna lie. Craft man seem to even turn us adults in to big kids. Like the days we would wait for out favorite TV shows come on and sitting on the floor legs folded with a bowl of cereal.
youngest kid and I have discussed many times how wonderful it would be to have you as a neighbor; you're a joy and an honorable man, Crafsman.
much love and respect to you
That's very kind of y'all, and means so much to me. Thank you both!
The captions at the beginning 😂😂😂 “hello and welcome to crash man show my name is your house they’ll credit me” lol
We love you too, CrafsMan
New favorite crafsman word- thicknicity 😍
Crafsman, you are a national treasure, you know that?
Crafsman, you are the most wholesome person on the planet. Your videos make me happy whenever I watch them. Thank you for this channel.
I immediately clicked off another video for this. You're one of the best channels I'm happy to have subscribed to :)
SAME!
Yep
SAME!
always
Lol, I don't. I save Crafsman videos for right before bed.
Thank you crafsman. I learn about ten new things while watching your videos.
what we know about crafsman so far: He lives in mississippi close to a Freds Dollar store, and he has a PhD In Mechanical Engineering.
That machine is awesome Crafsman!
Also, eats at Newk's. Totally the 'Sip.
I've had this really unique light bulb for years. I found it some random place. I keep wanting to use it in a mixed media project...the head for a puppet.. But once i use it? It's GONE!! now I can use your FANTASTIC video and make dozens of bulbs!!!! Soooo excited! Thank you Craftsman! 😍💡💡💡😀
Now that’s straight craftin.
I could watch (and listen to) these all day!
The lego brick mold box made me smile more than it should.
Was having a bad day then BOOM the Crafsman comes out with a new video.
Hope the next 2 days were great, too ! Have been known to rewatch Crafsman videos on "less then optimal" days ! ;)
CrafsMan, you are such a wonderful, gentle, silly, person. I love the way you teach. It's so inspiring and engaging. I wish you all the success in the world with your channel and in your life. :D
Hello again the Bob Ross of crafts.
We love you back, Crafsman! And the video was excellent! Hugs to Mrs. Crafsman and you, too. ☺️
Hey Crafsman, here's a pro tip: sometimes when I go to Newk's to get a mixing container, I sit down and eat their shrimp salad. It is DEE-licious!
After school got cancelled for a shooting threat, crafsman is what I need to calm down.
It's really sad that you even have to worry about that stuff! Praying you all stay safe and secure this school year.
I showed your Vids to a friend here in Ireland and he says you sound like your about to nod off. That's half the attraction I told him. On it's own it wouldn't mean much without your excellent ingenuity, creativity and very obvious love for what you do. You're an everyday inspiration freind, please & always keep it up. I'll send you one of my own figures soon 👍.
There is no such thing as perfect. But there is a best. You are the best, Crafsman. The. Best. Thank you.
I woke up with vertigo today and was too dizzy to keep working on my projects. I thought laying in bed watching a crafsman video isnt the worst way to spend a friday morning, but then watching that machine spin made me dizzy all over again. Woops
I loved the way you said hello at the beginning, so cute
:) Glad to hear it! Thank you for watching!
P.S. I like the SNES as well. ;)
Awesome video, I love that you try new things and post the results instead of rehearsing everything first. We learn a lot by watching different approaches and finding things we like about each one.
You know, it probably wouldn't be too hard to build a small rotational casting rig out of Lego Technic sets. Now they even have a lot of different Lego motors you could use instead of a crank.
I was thinking of building one myself, just cause it's COOL ! LOL ! Thanks for the reminder of those 'technic' by Lego !
I also would live to try to make the Rotating Solar System that was in the Dark Crystal.......(there is a term for it, can't remember !)
@@m.maclellan7147 its called an orrery.
@beourbee thanks ! Was right on tbe tip of my tongue ! ;)
Can't get enough of the Crafsman.
After a night of homework and studying, it's finally time to sit down and relax with thecrafsman. Hello :>
Hello! :D Hope you enjoyed it!
TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin I did ❤️
I just want a video of the crafsman doing the intro for half an hour
Your voice is so soothing I could listen to you talk all day I just really like how you present your stuff without being too loud or yelling like other youtubers do
I'm just joyous that I learned of that quad hands thing it's awesome!
I was pretty excited to discover it myself! Helps a lot when soldering little characters with multiple joints at once. :)
@@TheCrafsMan it's way better than the little RadioShack one I've been using.
CrafsMan, every time I watch one of your videos I am always inspired to create. They remind me of the joy of learning something new. They make me wanna try things out, not for a perfect result, but for experience and joy of creation. Keep on trucking my man!
I share this feeling every time, too! It's great
Shazam, just what I needed to start the day. Breakfast with TheCrafsman.
Oh Wow! I thought you were going to be gone for a while!!! Glad you changed your mind. You say but all the time, "KEEP STEADY.....STEADY, crafting! I am going to get my cup of coffee and enjoy your work. Thank you!
It’s so cool to see comments from new subscribers. That second hundo thou thou has come quick. Crafsman, keep on steady craftin.
Genius Legobuild for the Mold. 👍

"Let's don't even worry."
“What you doin Craftsman?”
Craftsman: “It’s that POTLIFE” XD
We love you too Crafsman!!!
Love your style Mr. Crafsman. Easy listening kind of voice. Plus I learn something crafy every time I stop by. I love how you are not afraid to jump in and try new products and new ideas. Bye for now.
I actually enjoy the creak of the Roto-caster, it's kind of cathartic yet a whole lot of relaxing.
I have to say the music you added and where you added it made me really happy :)
Every time I am about to ask Crafsman a question,
He goes an answers it before I can type it in here.
Except for this one: how you do that, Crafsman?
Got you there.
Love you back,
M
Crafsman! So I finally got my video together on making my miniature game room and I am happy with at least the gameroom itself. I noted you as one of the two inspirations for the project up front so people would know where they can get that inspiration from. I definitely styleized a lot of parts of the project. I wanted them to look like what they were but in a stylized kinda way so I could hide my mistakes a bit easier. What a load of fun! Thank you very much!
MY MAN! I appreciate your kindness! I'm going to check out your video right now. :D
@@TheCrafsMan its all thanks to you man!
You reminds me Bob Ross the picture painter. Great videos, keep the good work sir!
You can also drill a small hole in the bottom of the bulb and wire in an LED. This way, you can have it light up while still in the mech-suit. Love your videos!
That's a slick idea right there, Arron! :D
You're the Bob Ross of crafts. Just "happy accidents".
Your voice makes me really comfortable for some reason. Who are you and who do you think you are making us all comfy!?
I think the reason I like asmr is because of this channel
Quickly turning into TheCastMan!
These videos really help my anxiety and they are so wholesome.
Thanks CrafsMan 😌
I never thought of using LEGO'S like this! That's perfect!!! Now I am gonna go to Wal-Mart!!!
you could make all kinds of different color light bulbs like that and string them together with LED lights strands and make like camping/yard lights out of them would be pretty cool
you are one of the best youtubers ever!!!! your videos are both calming, helpful and have a little bit of humor sprinkled throughout!
Neat! I never saw how to do rotocasting before.
We love you too Crafsman!
You have enough sense to try things Crafsman & that's literally the only sense you need!
How you gonna learn if you don't try and by trying you learning.
Cause by doing is making it happen and by not doing you ain't haha.
Best motto I live by is;
"If you say you Can't you Won't!
If you say you Can then you Will !" 😁👌
We love you too Mr CrafsMan. Thank you for another fantastic video.
Just woke up and saw you uploaded it, best thing to wake up to! Love you craft man!
YESSSSSSSSSS THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT IVE BEEEEN WANTING FOR A BIT IM SORRY FOR CAPS GENERALLY EXCITED I MAKE SCULPTURE NOW
This show gives me so much life.
I just love these videos. A little humor, great information and a style that makes you chill and smile.
Still one of the best channels. Entertaining and helpful.
I don't do any of this stuff but I love your videos! 👍
Same
Same here
From Quebec,Canada with love!
I have been binging you all morning
The Not So Smart Bomb is adorable. I would die for him.
Crafsman, I hope you know that your hard work is appreciated! Thank you for sharing your talents with us strangers ☺
Crafsman, I promise that by tomorrow I will find a way to use the word thicknesscity in a conversation with another person. Thank you for that fine word.
I like to watch your videos with my daughter before her bed time, she only ever asks for two things, bed time story or crafsman
Your voice is incredibly soothing.
Awesome video then you bring in a huge homemade gyro thingy. Keep on craftin craftsman!
That contraption was neat. I dig the glowing bomb guy. I’ll bet you could add color LEDs to the clear one for a neat effect. Still glad I support this channel.
I watched all ads completely because ily
i love you and your videos they are my favorite thing to watch when i need to relax and get rid of anxiety. they really help me fall asleep to your voice is so soothing !
That lightbulb has got the drip
Always looking forward to your next video. One of things I actually enjoy is how the ambient sounds make it into the videos, like rain or a distant train. :)
Pro tip on glowing objects. If you really want to super-charge something quickly, you can hit them with a blue laser. It's close enough to UV wavelength that it will make what ever you hit with it really glow.
Love the way you talk CrafsMan!
We gonna be adven-cherous!!!! Crafsman, you keep bein' you!!!
Your content quality has gone waayyy up Crafsman. Big ups 👌👌
Aww, you're too kind. Thank you! I feel like this is one of the least well put-together videos of mine, though. :/
That was a LOT of glow powder! Woah lol 😁
My favorite time of the week!
Crafsman giving out all the useful tips. Thanks for the tips and the video was still awesome as usual.
Great way to start my day......"The Crafsman way"
I love your voice. Its really strange but it grows on you.
I literally have to watch his videos when I'm feeling a panic attack coming on. He's so awesome and he has helped me lots
Sir you inspire me not only to create but do videos .... thank you
I have learned alot from you Mr. Crafsman. You are the best!
I love seeing the amount of patreon supporters grow with each video :^) you totally deserve the support for your amazing content. For me, each video feels like a small pocket of positivity and fun and learning, and they definitely always improve my mood!
You never disappoint, Crafsman.
The quality of a mold’s thicknicity is of the upmost importantence.
Read your comment right as he said it hehe :)
Craftsman, I’d love a video of the rain sounds.
I’d also love a video or plans for your diy rotocasting frame.
I love you Crafsman!
This reminds me of the Snoopy's Mighty Model Maker I had in the early 80s. That would roto cast plaster versions of the Peanuts gang. It was a little messy but worked well.
Oh jeez I remember that. I had a kit, not rotocasting, but you could cast these monsters and animals with some powdered mix stuff it came with. The cool thing was you could swap the heads, torsos and legs around because the molds were interlocking pieces so they snapped together. I almost totally forgot about it...I used to have a little desk next to my dad's workbench and he would mix up some plaster for me to make them after I ran out of the mix stuff. You could add food coloring or paint them afterwards. :)
This was entertaining, stressful, and educational all at the same time lmao I was so sure that mold was gonna fall out xD
