Building a (Special) ca 1860 Parasol Frame

In this installation of "I can't get a video out in any speed possible," We are building a ca 1860 parasol for a special project - a microbead parasol cover, as well as draft a base pattern and get annoyed with wiring the frame together.

This series needs a T-Shirt.... "Mock-ups are important, Y'All!" Brandon, bravo on another video :)

[@brandonmckinney3880]

Maybe one day when I've reached a point when people would want merch... ;)

[@cheleseaboone8549]

you had me at irredeemable project squirrel

[@kylesteele3936]

I am totally going to buy up every parasol I find in New England now.

[@brandonmckinney3880]

Considering some of mine come from Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire, I'll say "Save some for me!" But I am always happy to help spread the parasol collecting joy.

You popped up in my YT feed, i love that you use your grandads hand drill. Interesting craft, love the nostalgia it brings up. Thankyou and ive subbed.

[@frugalmum7943]

Loving the relaxing music in the background :) Thankyou for this video, very informative and lovely to watch.

[@melusinenoArashi]

I absolutely love it. Thank you for making the music less loud. I really need a parasol (which one day I would have).

[@brandonmckinney3880]

I found a magic button to help with the music so I was really happy with how it worked - hopefully I can remember where it was for the next one! Thank you.

[@brentgrolla8646]

I am really enjoying your videos. I am saddened to see that you have not uploaded anything new in the past couple years.

[@victoriarothenberg8601]

That is just about the coolest thing I have ever seen! Just amazing. (and if you ever need a bit of crochet support - reach out. I have figured out how to turn around my zoom screen and now you can actually see how things are done). Now I want to make a beaded parasol. And Victorian isn't even my period!

8:48 YEEEEEES!!! Loved that noise

[@frugalmum7943]

Starts about 5.10 Mark for impatient souls like myself, hope that helps someone :)

[@nisastone9]

[@heroandflor]

[@princemarcreative]

[@cynthiawilson4500]

[@danesilvani2918]

I need more from you i love your content

[@anne-lenadreikluft8155]

Fantastic! Thank you :)

[@lauraguglielmo]

Great video as always! I'm so curious to see the design!

[@brandonmckinney3880]

I've been working on it on and off but it's still rumbling around in my brain! In a few videos it should see light.

[@cassandragibson1398]

I prefer the sound of the drill to the rasp.

[@brandonmckinney3880]

I wanted to put a title at some point that said "this video brought to you by pretty sounds." but I just had a brain lapse.

[@niranjanpatwardhan2901]

How do i cut the cloth if i were to make a 16 sided or 24 sided prabolic shape umbrella?

[@nancyaldredge4246]

If you want to learn how to crochet, go to your local yarn store and see if they offer classes. If you lived in central TX, I would offer to reach you as I am an experienced knitting and crochet teacher (and former yarn store owner). I also taught basic tatting...

[@brandonmckinney3880]

Thank you for the offer! I live in Florida, myself. Since filming those sections I've actually learned basic single crochet - and flirted with bead crochet. I actually taught myself tatting about five or six years ago, and I have a video planned that goes into the differences between nineteenth century tatting techniques and current day ones.

[@cynthiawilson4500]

I have a hand powered ratcheting drill..no sound at all..unless I drill my finger

[@ibrhemahmed170]

How long are it?
