Finally made a SQUISHY figure! +Don't use ALL your glitter.

- This video was originally going to be all about making your own flexible figures out of tough silicone. After some trials, I changed materials and had success! :D
I also show how to get full coverage of your figure (or other resin cast object) by dusting (coating) the mold before casting. This saves a LOT of material, which is great for expensive metallics, holographic powder, or - in this case - glitter.

This man Is a national treasure the youtube version of Mr Rogers/Bob Ross.
Trent Da Gamer I was LITERALLY going to write the same thing.
100%
It's like you mixed Bob Ross with Mitch Hedberg
Definitely
Bob Ross is on youtube
CrafsMan, my wife doesn't speak English, but I was watching your video on my living room, and she came by and said: "That is so relaxing!", sat down and watched with me. Keep steady craftin, I will keep steady watchin...
He has such a soothing voice
I'm patiently awaiting the next installment of bedtime stories 😃🧚♂️🧚♀️
CrafsMan, your editing skills are getting A+ if I do say so myself
I appreciate that so much! It encourages me.
I was giggling at the glitter sound FX
So true! :D
@@tjvhigh09 me too! Especially when he was wacking it and the sparkle sound went along with it
@@tjvhigh09 Same.
I love it that you leave the fails in. That's motivational
Really glad to hear this! I know I've shown a silicone mold fail before, but this one was with a specific product (EcoFlex) that - although I've used successfully before - I would feel BAD recommending something to y'all and it be a little on the tricky side to use. I followed the same steps with the Dragon Skin and got great results right off the bat. :)
@@TheCrafsMan I love to think of every problem/failure as an opportunity! You could probably do a whole series on DIY gone wrong and salvaging or repurposing things so you can still get great use out of the time you've spent on your great content. Plus a lot of subscribers just want to see what you've been up to whatever that is!
@@TheCrafsMan I've had a few issues too! Still trying to figure out if it was my temperature or if I need to invest in a scale for mixing!
I’m in tears from when you tapped the glitter out. The sound effects. Oh mercy XD
It's my first encounter with this man, no expectations at all, then the glitter happened!! 😂😂😂
Yeah it's so funny I had to play it back
Lol. The pauses
These are some of the funniest TH-cam videos I have ever seen❣
I have watched and re-watched some of these . . . even just let them play in the background just to listen to the audio if I am doing something else. 🙃
Lol facts craftsman is like my dad
CrafsMan, for the rest of your life you're gonna be finding bits of glitter in places that even light shouldn't be able to reach. :-D
Ricketron this could not be more true lol
Oh man, this is 100% for real. LOL! I was talking to my wife about this very thing. "Baby, I think I messed up... by opening this pack of glitter." :) It's just so easy to get it all up over the place.
There was glitter on the table of my high school prom and my girlfriend at the time took a pinch and put it down my shirt. I swear every time I move and have the floors all bare... I still find one tiny little piece. It's been nearly 30 years now.
I made a cheap guitar top all glittery maybe what? 20 years and 4 or 5 apartments ago? I still find a glitter or two here and there once in a while... Lol!
3 universal truths. Death, taxes, forever finding glitter....
Crafsman, I'm pretty sure someone has already told you this, but I don't care, I'm gonna say it again.
You are a beautiful person.
Every one of your videos makes me happy and nice.
Thank you for that.
:D
That magical glitter sound effect was great! I'm still laughing! 😂
I was laughing already, but when he started tapping the bottom i had to pause the video 😂😂😂
@@bugglemagnum6213 Send me the timestamp, please! 🤣🤣🤣
@@S-CB-SL-Animations
4:21 lol
😂 I think it's the best part
Hey Crafsman! I work for Ralph Lauren, let me know if you would like some tiny shirts for "yourself" We make dress shirts for small dogs that would fit well. Spice up those intros with some style and variety! Keep doing what you're doing.
Id love to see this
This is a necessity.
PLEASE!
Yess yes yes
yesssssssss
That really thin squishy one you made had me thinking back to those "sticky hands" toys where you could fling them at something and it would stick and pull it back. Also those octopus ones where you throw them against a wall and they would slowly "crawl" down. If they lost their stickiness you could rinse them in dish soapy water and pat them dry. I'd bet they were made with similar silicone.
Salvation73 i could sit and watch the wall crawling kind for hours hahah
That silicone is a very cheap TPE rubber. The silicone Crafsman has is a pretty high end platinum silicone.
@@grimtt mine never crawled. They hit the wall, flattened, rolled once then fell to the floor.
:(
Me too! I was waiting for the wall splat! xD
Shannon King 😄😄😄 that too! How about “Those who would throw sticky octopi should live in glass houses” !
"That's exactly---- yesssssss". This is the best one yet-- love the music and the sound effects. You get me laughing so much. Crafsman is an ANTI-DEPRESSANT!!
So my wife has this "glitterfied pefume" that she sprays glitter on her with the smell. I told her "No way! Glitter is bad! I hate glitter. It gets everywhere." Like 10 minutes later I see the CrafsMan using glitter to make his figures. I'm forced to reconsider my life choices now. LOL Great video, CrafsMan. My wife approves.
Makes me wonder how well it could work, to fill 1 of these molds with that stuff, to "liquidust" it, for this same idea!
I absolutely love the look around he does before introducing himself. Becoming a staple Crafsman move.
Now we need the return of the classic, "Hold up, Crafsman!"
This channel always gets me so inspired to do more projects
Recently started working on a truck that’s been sitting a year
Building a desk
Redid a hardwood floor
Love this channel
Easily my favorite youtuber
My favorite as well!
@@gqcreative1635 Same!
I found his channel less than an hour ago and he's already my favourite.
I love how you add the small bloopers, like dropping things and all that. It has me laughing so hard my dad worries about me. 😂
14:41 needle felted robot with a heart on the far right is mine :D
You are quite talented!
@@War-Jac thank you!
Pinkbot has so much love!
That's so cute. Well done! ⭐
It’s precious!!
I love the dark ball-bearing lookin’ eyes. I sculpted some little portraits a while ago and used ball bearings for eyes. Came out pretty neat
The music stingers while you do stuff is my new favorite thing.
That pause on the glitter pour sound! Them little details are part of why you're so enjoyable to watch!
Love catching little jems like that.
Thanks MCM
Crafsman video you better believe Ima drop everything I’m doing to watch, much love to every one
Your voice is like a smooth mixture of Bob Ross and Morgan Freeman. You have the best personality too.
Had me cracking up, and I didn’t expect to when I clicked on this video.
Please never stop doing what you’re doing
I'd be curious to see what the two sizes of glitter mixed together looks like in a figurine.
I always suspected that glitter just had to sound that way.....
My friend sent me this video because I'm struggling with anxiety, and I was instantly put at ease, by the end I'm smiling, I could listen to you all day, so thank you!
The sound effects when you were pouring/tapping out the glitter were brilliant :D
That sound when Crafsman drops the glitter and epoxy into the silicone molds! 🤣
My partner and I love your little sparkly kritters! She says we should get one of your things, and I got to thinkin,' "You know. His stuff online is in such high demand... it's probably because people feel like they are buying stuff from our generation's Bob Ross... but for craftin' instead of paintin'!"
Those were amazing with the glitter dusting! My wife asked me to ask you: "what do you call those little puff ball critters and where do you get them? I love those but can't find them anymore!"
weepuls.
@@anthonypurpera6517 thanks!!!!
Feel free to put that TheCrafsMan album out anytime.
I just pictured him doing slayer and how hilariously weird that would be.
@@ucitymetalhead 🤣🤣🤣
I love every vibe about your channel! it's nice to be able to sit at the end of a day and listen to your soothing voice, and still learn something.
Just earlier today I was saying to myself, I said "self how come we ain't seen nothing from CrafsMan?" I mean I know it's only been a week since we saw his last video but it seems like a really long time... But then here He is and it just made my whole day. Thank you CrafsMan
I’ll never forgive myself for not being privileged to know Crafsman at this time. Glitter is my FAVORITE. I have an entire bedroom wall (floor to ceiling, side to side… 110% coverage) covered in brushed on glue and so.much.loose.glitter. But it looks AMAZING. It’s gold, but I used over a dozen different colors and sizes of glitter to really make it pop and have dimension.
Daddy hinkles should be a reoccurring character to be honest
TheCrafsMan shaved his SolPatch
josh blake I was going to look to see if it was in the last video.
Lol the sound when you pour the glitter✨ lol love it. Love your videos Crafsman!
“agua” is a brilliant name for that there character
Your content is by FAR some of the best content on TH-cam. Family friendly, humorous, educational, inspirational, encouraging, and honest. I can't express how valuable your honesty about the different products you use and methods using them. Also, I feel the fact that you don't script your content works SO well! Thank you CrafsMan! I will definitely stay SteadyCraftin. =)
The editing on this video is absolutely perfect. Amazing.
CrafsMan, I’ve been watching your videos for almost a year now but recently I introduced my mother to your videos and I don’t think she’s enjoyed anything else on TH-cam more than your stuff. Have a great day and thanks for the awesome videos!
Thank you once again for being a light in the darkness.
Hey hey Sir Crafsman :) You should get a massive silicon mat for your resin work, that way when it drys you can peel it right up. Love your stuff ever so much! You one in a billion! Have a great day :)
I love every video you make, I truly do. It's the highlight of my day listening to you expanding my brain and my crafting vocabulary... However, as I'm from the UK, right here, Getting hold of Smooth-On products has its issues... We pretty much only get sample kits i think over here. Could you drop them a line and see what they can do for us cave-man folks over here in the UK. Love you Craftman... keep steady crafting.
I love how over time you're coming up with your own video style. The little quirks and the editing that make a video uniquely a CrafsMan video. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, keep it up!
I just got recommended this guy. How is someone so calm and chaotic at the same time? Absolutely wonderful.
"I just be winging it!"
You're like the DIY crafts version of Bob Ross. Your tone of voice and demeanor is always calming. Even when you have failures you just learn from them and keep on goin. Thank you for doing your thang TheCrafsMan
Boy. Am I so happy to have found your channel. Thank you, TH-cam recommendations!! 💕
Lovin all those little edits that add a touch of character to every video. Great video as always Crafsman!
Hey Crafsman, just want to say thanks for always being kid-friendly. I love that my daughter can watch your videos and keep sparking an interest for kids to be involved in crafts, figure-making, etc. Thanks!
Lol I love how goofy you were in this video. You made my day with that intro!!
Sound design is above and beyond in this video!
The glitter sounds at 3:47 and 4:22 had me DYING of laughter! XD Stay sparkly and hilarious, Crafsman.
Love your glitter sound effect and how it wasn't just a consistent noise but little noises every time.
Stay happy craftin'
Crafsman! the one filled with bearings is great! Lots of great tips, all in one stop.
Glad you liked that! :D
What kind of ASMR is this? why I think I LOVED it
🤣🤣🤣
Just found this channel, and I INSTANTLY love it. His personality put a huge smile on my face and made my day much better.
The glitter Agua with the black eyes looks great! I'd love to see an outer space lookin version, maybe with some dark purple mica powder and patches of glitter
I love how you have a general idea for every episode but you include lots of little tidbits in every episode!
I really want one of those squishy glitter caricatures. That way everyday I get mad at work I can just use it like a stress ball. And that Keep on Steady Craftin sticker would be perfect to slap on the old hard hat at work.
Whoah, that bebe aqua mold version looks really cool! Thank you for being you Crafsman!!
The glitter jingles tho. :D I've really enjoyed watching your style develop as much as what you're teaching.
Crafsman, I love the sound effects in this episode ❤️
The twinkle-y glitter sound effect made my whole day better.
Thank you for making my Sunday end on a very happy note. Thanks for the sticker you added to my dear mail snail box. This was a very clever idea to be economical with glitter. The squishy ones are a real treat to see.
One of my favorite things is the little look around that the crafsman does in the intro right before introducing himself
Crafsman... your videos are the only thing that consistently put me at peace and allow me to rest when I’ve had a hard day.
Don’t get me wrong I love delving into the deep science, History documentaries, and maths parts of TH-cam… But after a stressful day I only need videos from crafsman, crafsmama, and crafson
Love the sound effects CrafsMan.
This video speaks to me. I swear at the start crafsman you were gonna say "this video is going to be the best video you will ever seen and will inspire u". This is true. My heart is racing lol!! I love glitter so much!!
I’m not even a a third into this video and I already have a new favorite crafter💕
Oooooh. Glitter doesn’t make that sound unless it feels very happy and comfortable!
The owl with some copper coat and have an aged look using the sulfur method would be pretty. 😍 your work!
The dusting worked like a charm. I think you just saved a lot of people a lot of money
Gotta say I freaking LOVE the intro... "my name is your host" FRANTIC HEAD SPIN... "The Crafsman"... look forward to this every episode!.
BEST CHANNEL ON TH-cam!.
You’ve inspired me so much Craft Man!! My son and I have bonded so much over drawing out little characters and stuff. We haven’t been able to make one come to life but boy do we have pages and pages of designs 😂 love you craft man!
i haven't ever heard of you or seen your videos before, but you sound like the father i never knew i needed. i could listen to you for forever, and you calmed me down from a panic attack. thank you so much
"Crafsman don't own a microwave. " single handedly caused me to hit the subscribe button. True story. Thank you craft man and thank you for spreading the anti microwave message. And now back to your regularly scheduled crafsman.
Where have you been all of my life? This has been the greatest experience of my life. Keep doing what you do because this was amazing!!
Your effects and other little things are just getting better and better every time I watch you. It's the little things that count!
Crafsman steady living the dream and making the world a better place.
Thank you Crafsman. You're my hero.
How have I not found this guy years ago? He's the best.
Even when things don’t go as planned, I still like watching Crafsman figure it out.
I have NEVER seen this channel before but I'm feeling so many things
Win, lose or draw - you make it cool and fun to watch Crafsman.
The 1 with the beads is So KOOL! You should find and experiment with other random things around shop😀
Crafsman, the world is a better place since you started making these lovely and inspiring videos. Thank you!
Hopefully I can pick up a squishy aqua when you release them, so far I’ve missed all of your Etsy sales
I love the black eyes on the sparkly Agua. Plus the sound of the sparkles pouring into the mold.
I have sadly stopped fling resin for health reasons but that won't stop me from watching you! I love your vids!
this technique reminds me a lot of punished props technique called "cold casting" you dust/cover your mold in a metallic powder, pour out the excess, then pour in your resin and the outside will have a layer of metallic powder
That was a GREAT episode craftman, love watching the mold process.
These episodes are getting more and more amusing. Loved the intro x
Hey Crafsman, it might be that there's too little moisture getting to the flexible stuff. That would at least be why regular silicone doesn't cure well enough. You could try adding the smallest amount of water to one of the two parts.
You make my day CrafsMan every time I check in with you. I learn every time I watch you.
The glitter Aqua looks like he's being beamed up by Scotty
This is my favorite TH-cam channel
Thank you for the lovely video.
I was sad when I saw that your resin didn't cure properly but I am happy you stuck with it.
Your videos make me smile :)
You have a great day Crafsman
Your content is so perfectly weird. Thank you so much for bringing it to us. I enjoy the heck out of it.
For some reason, his voice is what held my attention the whole video,, It’s strangely calming and just,,, It’s hard to explain the feelings I feel. But it makes me feel.
I’ve been very depressed and crying ALL day today but this really really helping. Thank you I hope you know your videos help sm.
