From plastic to COLD-CAST steel, Mr. Hong Kong Robot. (NO MUSIC)

[@TheCrafsMan]

This is one of the first times I've recorded a video while wearing headphones. As I mention in the video, I probably should monitor my audio ALL the time, instead of just looking at the meter to see if I'm clipping. But HEARING my voice in real-time while I'm recording does have an effect on how I talk. I think it makes me take things a little calmer. I've been feeling hurrified in recent videos. Hope y'all like the new setup! Steady Craftin videos are made with the help of DIRECT SUPPORT: www.patreon.com/steadycraftin (You'll also get access to the printable 3D scans of my original sculpted figures, MP3s, exclusive behind-the-scenes videos, shop discounts, and more.) My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.

It sounded amazing! I miss the music, but the Crafsman voice is music enough for my ears!

Gotta say, it does sound different. But I like it! Alright.

@@TheCrafsMan please be extra mindful and careful when playing with cold casting. I know you are extra responsable, your an amazing role model... I really am extra excited a younger audience is able access such a healthy enviroment you provide... I was involved in "cold plating" r&d project and ended up unknowingly go copper toxic w heavy metal poisoning.. I wore respirator but was deal w materials by the 5 gallon bucket. It is so fine ground it just lingers in air and other exposure. It ramped up the impact had on me. I was think just irritated skin cause hives... Was suspending "bronze" in resins and spraying over different materials. Was scuff back resins to expose metal w solvent and scotch bright, cold patina and then clear coat.. My experiance and exposure was not normal, but had very large impact on me and my health. Get a down draft table going.... Great for fumes and vapors cost u nothing to build use pc fans so also quiet... I dont wish my experiance on anyone... It was not something i could even easy identify as issue or why my health took such a bad turn. Thanks for what you do👍👍

[@Plokman040]

Goodness, my friend I hope you eventually get full health again, glad I only use small and I mean small amounts of any heavy metal and that is Lead. Disclaimer not using powder, not after seeing just how bad it is. No it is solid and liquid I deal with Solder tin/Lead kids and resin flux is all I breathe in if that. I will plate safer metals if I need a copper color, never powder. Thanks for the advice and truly I do hope you can get back to at least 90% full lung capacity my dad he had cancer twice due to chewing Tobacco and he quit and his lungs will never be a hundred percent due to his Trache but he is 90% and that is great.

Dear CrafsMan, my toddler woke up at 4:15am and she was inconsolable. I offered her snacks, water, milk, reading a book, I even offered her to hang out with the cat, which is her favorite thing usually. She would not stop crying and rejected all my offers. So I put on this video and she calmly watched your soothing crafting and fell back asleep. You got me an extra hour of sleep this morning, and I really appreciate it.

[@GamaScythe]

I see skies of blue. And clouds of white. The bright blessed day, and dark sacred night. and I think to myself... what a wonderful world~! CrafsMan, that's one of my favorite songs, and now you got it stuck in my head. Thanks for that. Here's wishing you well~!

Someone gave him a down vote WHY this is the sweetest man on KZbin I feel like a kid again watching this

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

To make people upset, probably. Or it got recommended to them and it wasn't their taste. Some people downvote anything unless they explicitly like it. As one person explained "exists = downvote. Liked it a little = no vote. Liked it a lot = upvote."

12:58 a little hack I use sometimes is to to make a little "vent" like that, but it's just a little nub or something that doesn't go anywhere - the air bubble doesn't actually escape the mold, but instead of being on the figures head it's on a little piece you cut away

I so appreciate your message of love at the end. It just feels like a lot of people have taken to the idea that kindness and empathy are weaknesses, and have taken on meanspirited personas. Instead of slinging hate and insults, always choose to throw kindness and compliments.

Love the sound. As for what I've been working on, I'm building a plastic injection molding machine. Just need to cut the block and then drill the chambers for the heater and the plastic pellets. Keep steady craftin' !

@@TheCrafsMan Sadly no video on it, I did take some pictures of the building process. I'm following a book by Vincent Gingery called "Secrets of Building a Plastic Injection Molding Machine." I modified the frame so I don't have to weld anything, just bolt-on. Once I have it finished I'll post pics on Instagram (jonaharbinger). I'm hoping it will be the next couple of weeks and I can test it out.

Anyone else totally addicted to the randomness of the Crafsman Show?

[@BeOurBee]

I grew up saying "Legos" too, so don't feel like you're alone on that one. That's a lotta Mold Star. Got a little production run in the works? "What y'all been up to, lately?" Practicing my handwriting, like back in school when we had the lined paper for making cursive letters. Also using some dip pens for inking artwork, instead of using my pigment markers. I recommend giving them both a try! With that SLA printer, you could probably print articulated parts for action figures with the pegs and everything, then cast them in some slightly flexy resin so the pieces pop together. Somebody would probably appreciate a robot like that toy but with moving parts! Maybe even ones you could swap out and customize.

[@HarrisonHUMAN]

A little bit of relax, a little bit of craft, a little bit of humour, a LOT of production value. What’s not to love.

I hit 'like' 3 times but it still only gave you one like. On the plus side, you're audio is great. Not too loud, not too quiet, doesn't sound compressed, no background noise - it's good. "It's always about lunchtime somewhere". Here's my favorite sandwich recipe: Either a sub roll or rye bread, rare roast beef, provolone, lettuce, tomato, roasted red peppers, jalapeno peppers, and Italian dressing (the artificially thick Kraft kind). It's magical.

[@apeman505]

Hi Crafsman! I dunno if you've ever done this--I don't like picking the bits of silicone out of my legos (lego), so I make a little box out of the side of a cereal box. I just draw a rectangle around my object (it doesn't have to be perfect), and then cut sides out and fold them up, then I seal the outside with tape. They're not very reusable, but they're quick and easy to make! You can even make triangles or wacko shapes, too, if you want the sides of the box to hug close to your object to conserve silicone. I dunno, just thought I'd share....

What have I been up to you ask brother? I’ve been working on my music. This lockdown has really helped me fall in love with myself. But I’ve been so busy, I fell out of touch with your channel. I love your videos. They give me, love yourself vibes, in a way that isn’t cheesy or in your face. I wish you did more cartoons or animations. Those are my favorites. If you did little cartoons for your action figures and gave them little stories, I think your channel would pop off. I wouldn’t be able to wait. Because crafts are fun, but once you get into crafts, you learn so much, so fast, and statistically, people are only interested in instructional videos for so long. But entertainment, people always need entertainment. And people want to connect with you. Cartoons would give us a deeper look into the mind of the Crafsman 😊

[@evansj18]

Nice to ask us what we've been up to. I 3d printed one of the AGUA figures from the model on your etsy shop with glow-in-the-dark filament. Then I painted black dots with white highlights for his eyes, a little line in his mouth crevice, and little lines around each of his little hand bumps. That gives him a lot more definition because otherwise it's hard to make out what the shape is. And the cooler part is that when he glows in the dark the paint blocks the glow so you can still see his little pupils, mouth and arms as dark lines!

[@VikOnasi]

Me and new baby enjoyed your video, crafsman! Great way to relax the mind, which is a state I'm always trying to steer back to, especially lately. I'd like to try this out sometime, it looks really fun!
