Dyed and Stabilized Corn Cobs!

[@Snaily]

I hope Blue Apron expected you to do this instead of cooking the food. (Also fair play on the light warning.)

[@peterbrownwastaken]

They had to know what they were getting into when they reached out to me! :)

[@Snaily]

Good point. Given the number of videos involving food in the past, it was the most logical result.

[@melody3741]

Peter Brown please read over their terms and conditions to make sure its okay!! I dont want you to lose your money

[@foreveronmywaytofuckyourbi5567]

Snaily I hope that they didn't.

[@Kami8705]

I thought you said you cooked and ate them first, then just did this with the leftovers, right? So it shouldn't be an issue.

[@MoonlitAllie]

I think the obvious thing to try and make are corn cob holders to help eat other cobs. #CircleOfLife

[@peterbrownwastaken]

Cannibal Corn?

[@monkeyt79ify]

Peter Brown better than Cannibal Corpse?

[@MoonlitAllie]

Peter Brown exactly

[@CSkwirl]

I was going to suggest the same thing, but also try using baby corn, they'll be so cute

[@tryphazzard2771]

Cyler Parent That was my thought exactly!! Especially if they are colored and fun. It would make great conversation pieces at barbeques!!

[@RussellTurman]

Half of KZbin makers: check out this super original epoxy table... Peter Brown: let's see what epoxy corn cobbs look like on the lathe.

[@SawdustAndCalluses]

[@AnomalousZoologist]

Make Corn Skewers, little knobs that you stab into either end of a cut cob to make it easier (and cleaner) to hold :3

[@felster]

Izices thats what I thought he was going to make!

[@Dsk001]

From the thumbnail that's what I thought he was making.

[@ryanminkoff4056]

I was going to say the same thing but then I saw this comment. I hope he sees your comment!

[@kathleensargent2403]

It would be cool to make those out of mini corn (the kind you find in cans) and either stabilize or just dip them.

[@iggypop666666]

Yes, dude, this. I thought that was what he was going to do, too!

[@mrandursun]

What would happen if you mixed resin and sand? Would it turn out like some sort of psuedo-stone? I think it would be an interesting project.

[@bradleybellwether3063]

mrandursun ...I saw it done on a small scale in a wooden ring. If you skip to the end, you can see the great results he had. I'm sure it's slightly different than you're talking about, but I think it would work to make an actual stone with. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boLGaWxjbs6lapo

[@amyshaw893]

What about inflating a marshmallow in the vacuum chamber, then setting it in resin, still inflated?

[@shiliela_rhymes_with_delilah]

Matthew Shaw It would deflate the second you opened the vacuum chamber.

[@amyshaw893]

could you not put the resin in the chamber too, so that you inflate it, then hold the vacuum while the resin cures?

[@kfroetta7130]

That’s a great and creative idea! I mostly love it bc what would actually happen is a total mystery! My concern is, will the resin set while still under pressure?

[@MazzyMadness]

K Froetta the resin would need oxygen to set

[@thekweenofbling3621]

Ooooowwww.... I would LOVE to see that.

[@JeremyThompson21]

Thanks for the strobe warning. Wife and son have epilepsy, so it's much appreciated.

[@samanthalawson6239]

I like food in thin slices idea

[@samanthalawson6239]

So i can eat it all

[@censusgary]

Yeah, checkers! And the checkerboard could be made of resin-dipped corn husks- green husks for half the squares, and dry husks for the other half.

[@disabledpeach8181]

Ive just been watching your vids on repeat and I have to say, I am SO SO SO happy that you marked the flashing lights as a sensory warning. It really shows how wonderful and caring you are for all of your viewers, Mr. Brown. I highly appreciate you 💖

[@bencooper4058]

I thought you’d made giant corn cob holders 😂😂. Awesome props to you on the strobe warning, it effects more people than I think a lot of people realise. Other than epilepsy, I know a lot of migraine sufferers can be triggered by flashing lights. So thank you!! ☺️ Bec W

[@naterbertue9273]

Thanks for that warning peter, i have idopathic epiletsy i dont siezure from strobing but thanks alot for showing care and concern

[@Tsweezey90]

When I first saw the thumbnail I thought you made corn cobs into the little handles you can stab into the ends of corn cobs lol

[@willburke]

Same here!

[@microttaja783]

He should do that!!

[@aaronmccooeye562]

Saaaame

[@bradhay6357]

Agreed

[@censusgary]

Well, really he did make that. Peter can use those picks to eat corn when he’s not using them for marking wood.

[@catrinabush1530]

As a person whose migraines are triggered by strobe lights, I genuinely thank you for the warning! Also, these turned out really cool looking!

[@DanteYewToob]

Cut one in half, hollow it out.. Butter dish, for your corn. I'm sure you could fit a full stick of butter in there. Just an idea.

[@ShioriWhitefeather]

As someone who has seizures due to flashing lights, I just wanted to say thank you for the sensory warning. It gave me enough time to pause the video and skip ahead. I really appreciate that, you'd be surprised how many people simply don't think about that.

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

VERY Cool! Do know that the acid dye you got is made for protein-based fibers (i.e. animal fiber like wool.) Jacquard also offers a dye for cellulose based fibers (i.e. cotton, hemp, cane, and yes, wood) under the name Procion MX. It's generally the same price as the acid dye you got, but will be absorbed deeper and more evenly into the fibers. (My wife is a spinning, weaving, knitting, and fiber dying instructor, and I've learned more about this than I ever wanted to know just helping her set up for demonstrations.) The fact that you used the dye to tint the resin sort of eliminated the need for it to be absorbed as deeply as it could have been, but just tossing it out there. I've been using Procion dyes on wood for a couple of years, and it works very well. Dharma Trading Co. also sells a Procion dye for a lower price than Jacquard, and in a lot more colors.

[@ethanf5961]

Mark Lindsay CNC there is quite literally more than meets the eye to pigments.

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

I know - that was my point. Not all dyes are the same. I've been working with wood for 45+ years, and one thing has remained the same - use the proper tool and or supply for the job.

[@xingcat]

You know, you could have used tiny little bits of metal and made corn cob corn holders! Those look great.

[@docj6850]

xingcat yah 100%

[@rebeccajohnson8815]

YES!

[@shannonmariefine8517]

i was totally thinking the same thing!! that would be so cool

[@TomDubYeah]

This was the obvious project... He missed!

[@davidhealdjr.513]

I came to suggest that.

[@matthewpopovich2321]

You should put them together and make a door knob! You can call it corn on the knob! LoL

[@THESLlCK]

[@frangish9579]

This is my favorite project thus far. The dyed cob handles, I absolutely love the variant in colors and texture.

[@zalsader]

I bet that a cross-section of these would look cool, maybe a plate? Or casino tokens?

[@peterbrownwastaken]

I love that idea

[@kayday1996]

casino tokens would look amazing

[@ArtemisNightlock]

Different coloured cobs as the different chips. Cool idea!

[@moresnekplz9065]

This is actually a thing people use for knife handles. Pine cones also look fucking amazing if you like that organic vibe.

[@BrothersMake]

Cut the corns into thin discs and set them in resin as a serving platter to serve cooked corn on.. cornception 🤯 👍🏼

[@carlinianam0s]

Or long strips like the whole outside so you can clearly see the corn pattern

[@erwinli6962]

carlinianam0s Why not both? Have alternating vertical and horizontal slices to make a pattern on the platter

[@crystaldawn9188]

Brothers Make ooh I like that.

[@yobespierre]

could you cut slices and use them as an inlay of some kind? or checkers pieces? :D

[@josephinedauphinais9527]

The way you filmed the bubbles in the vacuum chamber was so pretty and satisfying to me ngl.

[@rebeccabanner1499]

What if you made a peeler with a handle made out of peels? Maybe from cucumbers, carrots, lemons, whatever. Could be super cool

Something very calming about those closeups of the bubbles rising while in the vacuum chamber!

[@xPROJECTHARDCOVERx]

Corncob pipe. Corncob pipe! CORNCOB PIPE!!!!!

[@SpudGun146]

I don’t think resin would cast a good pipe, the heat around plastic especially resin might not be very healthy + the fact you’d be directly inhaling any fumes

[@xPROJECTHARDCOVERx]

R6JF wasn’t really going for functionality. More for just a fun prop. Like the gummy bear axe.

[@loveablekittycat1219]

These are beautiful! I'm curious as to what a pine cone would look like using a similar process - especially one that hadn't opened up yet!

[@hungrycolby]

The whole time I just kept wanting to see you make a corn cob pipe... Too cliché?

[@chancekiki8488]

Roderick storey he could make a wooden bowl and put it in side the corn cod so you get the look of corn

[@Brandywine6969]

If it is too cliché, then I am too, because I kept thinking the same thing.

[@Brandywine6969]

Maybe he could do it minus the resin on the inside and only use resin on the outside. I'd love to see it even if the pipe is just a novelty item and not usable.

[@hungrycolby]

Roderick storey Yeah I was definitely thinking more for the novelty of it 😉

[@davoupnya3202]

Yeah that's it and smoke resin with your tobacco ! Sounds deadly to me !!!

Id also like to see many cross sections arranged flat on a plate and epoxied together to form a pattern that shown the internal structure of the cobs. I imagine it like a snowflake shape

[@rosielc4761]

If you could preserve a mini corn cob with the kernels I reckon it's make a nice "farmer chic" gear knob.

Corn cob lamp stand. one time i made a lamp stand out of a old VW crank cam shaft very steam punk, it is awesome. i use it every day.

maybe you can slice them length-wise and use them for scales on a hand forged knife or put some nails (instead of the awl) and use them as corn on the cob holders (corn nails)

We love watching the neat stuff you do, too, and it's so nice to see the consideration you show. :) If you want to make your videos even more accessible, maybe consider full captions instead of the auto-generated ones, so that folks with hearing disabilities or audio processing disorders -- or even folks learning English as a 2nd language -- can follow what you're doing in the videos. There are services that will transcribe the captions for you for a small fee, or you could get a freelancer (like me, actually) to do it if you don't have time to transcribe them yourself. ♥ Shop Time!
