Welcome friends! In this video I'll show you how to create your own inexpensive flight stands. So sit back relax with your favorite drink or join in on the fun.
Starting my collection recently and was going to buy heaps off of Amazon but I saw this instead. Appreciate it as it’s very easy to make and is way cheaper than those mafex stands Cheers dude
Great job adding some really inovstive ideas. Bending to center mass of base and addinf the shrink app. Saw another person using circular base, i thought no way that is the most stable base shape
Love this video I'm struggling with my 16 gauge to make stuff stand in the air I see 12 is the way to go I'll be heading to home Depot soon thanks for this video
I just bought wire (16 gauge) and then saw your video. I see why you suggest 12 gauge. This is pretty cool stuff to do with figures. Thanks for sharing this info. It will help immensely.
@@jesusmanuellopez6946 HI Jesus and thank you for viewing my video. My apologies, but I'm currently in the mist of moving and my collection is packed away. I won't be able to create more videos until I move in my new place. My apologies again.
Just curious why you didn't make the first corner at 1.5 inches instead of 3 and avoid having to cut and waste wire? 1.5 inches cut each time wastes an entire stand faster than you think.
@smunoz1970 the wider footing makes sense. My question is about that first cut you make in the video. You make a bend at 3 inches, but you cut off an inch and a half after that to make space for closing the square at the end. Why not make that first bend shorter so you never cut anything off the base and save a ton of wire, while still making the exact sized base? Losing that inch and a half adds up to a whole stand for every 10 (or fewer) stands you make. Make sense or am I asking this wrong?
12 gage is the ideal wire. 26 gage may or may not support the weight, especially if you go into heavier figures. Take the guess-work out of it and give it a shot. It may work

@@fabctoys9558hey dude I tried doing the same however my figures start shaking around and are definitely not stable would thicker wire work ?

It was an honor and a pleasure to have blown your mind. Mission accomplished. LOL. Thank you for viewing my content. Hope it helped
he speak so slow that you can put it at 2x and still sounds ok XD
How will i stick it to my action figure?
WAY better than paying for the ACBA shit. Just make em yourself
There you go. Glad you enjoyed the video

I did that for a wider footing. A wider foot base will be able to hold up a heavier bigger figure, like my 10in Play Arts Kai figures.
@smunoz1970 the wider footing makes sense. My question is about that first cut you make in the video. You make a bend at 3 inches, but you cut off an inch and a half after that to make space for closing the square at the end.

Is there a video of how you did your COIL bike custom?
Hi and thanks for watching. Unfortunately, I do not have any tutorials on any of my customs.
What did u cut the wire with? A chainsaw? This stuff isn't easy to cut lol
Confused how you attached the stand to the figure, you didn't show that part
Usually in the joints like if it has a abs joint or upper thigh near the butt
Thanks for the idea. But the difficult part is i cannot buy galvanized or binding wire as we have lockdown here.
This guy steals from his wife every 2 secs 😂
Well it's like the ole saying goes. What's mine is mine, and what's her's is mine 😉
I only have 26 ga will it still work ?
12 gage is the ideal wire. 26 gage may or may not support the weight, especially if you go into heavier figures. Take the guess-work out of it and give it a shot. It may work
Hey man can’t really find those exact wire
Would 14 gauge steel wire work? That's the thickest my store has
I would say yes, but don't make the height of the stand too long. You should be fine
wire size..?? 0.5 mm / 0.2 mm..??
Hi Purnama, I couldn't tell you as far as milimeters, but it's 12 gauge wire
will 16GA wire be ok?
Make sure it's rated for 75 lbs
