How to make a balloon stuffing machine for $15 using supplies from home depot or your hardware store

[@tonyajohnson2667]

I just wanted to tell you thank you! My husband and I made this last night and it does work! I am so happy. You just saved me hundreds of dollars. My supplies totaled 27$.

[@sherisejones3632]

Hello which way does the check valve go in…which side is inside the bucket

[@tonyajohnson2667]

@@sherisejones3632 well it worked for one or two balloons then the seal broke and we tried several types of bondings and nothing would actually bond to the top lid of the bucket. We got so frustrated and just went and ordered my stuffer from balloons online. I threw the homemade one away. I wasted over 60$ with total materials trying to get it to work.

[@danielle5113]

Hi I live in the USA how much would you charge me to make it for me thanks

[@memoriesonamovie5568]

Great easy to follow video, and a geniius idea. Wished we could have seen you continue to take the balloon out filled.

[@MagnusJarngrimrson]

Thanks AmazingBalloonGuy! Just finished making mine! But to anyone trying this I highly recommend using E6000 or silicon-based adhesives, I found out the hard way while doing the project that epoxy is brittle. As soon as the lid flexed from the vacuum pressure the epoxy cracked and shattered and I lost the seal and had to start over. Just a tip to anyone trying this (and I may have just had really crappy epoxy, everyone's situation is different so take everything I say with a grain of salt lol ;) )

[@greenearthblueskies8556]

Thanks for the tip....can u tell me the brand of balloons u use. I’m new to this, I purchased latex and they break. Thanks

[@MagnusJarngrimrson]

@@greenearthblueskies8556 I recommend 18" inch Qualatex Stuffing balloons :) Don't even bother trying with normal 12" or 16" balloons, it simply will keep tearing the balloon ;)

[@detohlar]

How did u take the balloon out?

[@MagnusJarngrimrson]

@@detohlar You take the lid off and it deflates the balloon with all the goodies inside, then you just blow the balloon back up after taking it out of the bucket

[@detohlar]

@@MagnusJarngrimrson thank you so much!

[@liballoonqueen]

This is amazing! I wish I had seen this a month ago when I needed it for a client. I didn’t want to invest in the big machine since I do not do a lot of stuffed balloons so I was trying all different things. Never thought of the Home Depot 5gallon bucket! Genius

[@victoriamutinda3621]

IT WORKED !!!! Thank you so much for this video, I made this with my husband and it works great! This year i will be able to make Easter stuffed balloons for my community 😊 Thanks to you

[@ritawashere5787]

Maybe you could answer the question I have. The hoses on my vacuums are standard size that you put crevice tools and extenders in. Will that work? I don't have a vacuum like the shark that has the smaller hose..

[@ritawashere5787]

What's, I also forgot to ask, how do you know when the balloon is inflated to the right size? Does it have to go to the sides of the bucket? And how do you know this? Sorry to bother you, thank you in advance ❤️

[@victoriamutinda3621]

Hi, I don't use a vacuum I use a balloon pump ... I create a support using a neck of a balloon ... that way air doesn't get lost..... I make sure the balloon touches the wall of bucket

[@victoriamutinda3621]

I use the back of the hand pump

[@eclecticideas7]

this is one of the best videos I saw for this nice job I will try this

[@roham1981]

Hey Ballon guy Last night was my gf birthday and I really owe you a big thank I made it It was really nice Respect

[@pdelmercado]

Genius! Thank you for this tutorial. You saved us hundreds of dollars.

[@sattolbert]

You sir deserve an award!!!!! I'm such a diy'er and this has made me happier than a kid in a candy store. I'm going to try to use some plexiglass or something see thru.

[@ReeAlexander-e2o]

So the valve won’t poke the balloon?

[@fiordalizacano5858]

Love it love it thanks very much!!!! Definitely I am saving this for my next go project!!!! I love making new things

[@SuperSlatina]

Thanks Tony! I've been saving up for a Balloon Stuffing machine.

+SuperSlatina Your welcome! This will def save you some money :)

[@ShengCorcilles]

pls can make a video on how to make diy balloon grid backdrop

[@uniquepjfjtgkyro4298]

AmazingBalloonGuy I made this but it has to be something I did wrong cause it’s not blowing my balloons

[@michaelholmes9999]

@@AmazingBalloonGuy i try this i can not find balloons to go over the hole

[@lisaharbaugh3220]

Hi, Amazing Balloon Guy, Do you have any suggestions for building a larger balloon stuffing container? One with some kind of visibility as to what you stuff in the balloon? So you can rearrange items inside?

[@ra4207]

I would love the same answer to this question 🤣

[@jeanettejames5528]

Clear 5 gallon bucket

[@sattolbert]

I'm thinking about using acrylic or plastic panels using the same epoxy to seal the sides

[@theb.nicolebailey]

Will a trash can work you think in order to make bigger ones?

[@amym3561]

I was thinking you could use a large, clear plastic tote as long as the top seals good

[@user-ng3lb8co9z]

Sir, you are a genius! Thank you

[@ddgandme]

So smart. Balloon stuffing machines are expensive. Thank you for the great video

[@goodlawd100]

This was nice & "seemingly" easy.... I think I would prefer to use a clear bucket so that I can see the placement of items. But this was just what I needed. I think I'll give it a try.

[@marktadena7614]

Thanks for sharing. Outstanding design. I've been playing with the idea of making a stuffer but I never got around to it. I really like the idea of using the check valve to keep the balloon inflated so you can stuff it more easily. Again, thanks for sharing I really like this design.

[@tastyjourneyexplorer]

Hey! Can you link me the check valve you used? I can't seem to get the balloon to inflate. Thank you.

[@johhnywalker6714]

I built one of these. It works awsome! great for bday partyfavors

[@taquiamckinnie6082]

Where did you buy the balloons please?

[@melissak395]

How did you get the balloon not to pop ? Mines has piped twice

[@angelawelch5203]

Thank you for sharing! I tried it and the 3/4 check valve doesn’t close to keep in the air. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

[@ofco123]

Hi and tnx for the guide. Can you pls put a closer look of the water check valve?

Once you have the machine made how do you use it? Like how do you hook it up to the shop vac?

[@joserivera4682]

Please make video on after the ballon is stuffed. Great video thank you.

what if i wanna cee inside? what should i use?

[@katieburkert7705]

Hey I’m in the Uk, would I use a non return valve? Xx

[@medabrittman]

Hello I just came across your video. I went to Lowe’s and Home Depot. However the brass check valves are straight and does not look like what you have in the video. How many ends does this part have? From the video it looks like 3 ends. If it is 3 ends then it’s not call a check valve. PLEASE HELP!!!

[@NebraskaUrban-m6g]

Can use a wooden lid

[@dionneyoung190]

If you get a bigger lid does the size of the pvc pipe need to be bigger?

[@sherisejones3632]

Will the pvc check valve work or does it have to be brass

[@listendeaf]

Can I do this with a larger pvc pipe? I need to expand the opening over 6" 😳

[@LadyDimePiece4Eva]

I would like to know that as well

[@MicaelaNicole330]

most people have a 5 inch opening. a balloon expander would most likely be needed for $100 online,

[@Thatsmessedupman]

What's the purpose of the long tube? Doesn't the balloon push up against it? Why would you need it?

[@victoriahawkins2121]

You should manufacture and sell these!

[@moniquelessard4242]

Would a clear storage tote like the really big deep ones work? That way you could see what your putting in and placement? Plus you could fit a bigger balloon.....

[@Earthangel171]

Wow just wow you are amazing

[@faithregister6944]

Great video but could you send me a video on how to take it off once I stuff it?

[@katiriaburgess5849]

Can you use a clear square storage tote or does it have to be round?

Great question!

Wonderful idea, thanks for sharing buddy.. Greetings from the U.K.

[@kcastings]

When I’ve blown and stuffed my balloon, as soon as I start to take the neck of the balloon off the air all escapes. Have I don’t something wrong?

[@loungeandleap9289]

hello i got the exact products you used in this video and i even got 24in balloons (i tried stretching them out first too) but they rip everytime i try to put the balloon in place. How can i prevent the neck of the balloon from ripping when trying to use this? :(

[@nickitvstemora7099]

Are you using specifically stuffing balloons? The neck of standard balloons will not allow this much stretch

[@jodispade1333]

I love it .... however we need to see how you tie off the balloon😂? Thank you for sharing !!!

[@paulabrennan8200]

Yes!

[@tsureable]

Slowly pull the balloon from around the neck of the 3" pipe . Once off twist the balloon or you can turn the bucket (as to twist the balloon). If you have clips or clap to use that it would be easier to hold the air in while you remove the lid. If not twist the balloon & try to pull the neck of the balloon up thru the whole as much as you can so you can tie it. Then take of the lid to remove the balloon from the bucket

[@maryrabindran9334]

I checked the check valve at home depot very expensive , could you please tell me which one to use and around how much it is??Also pls let me know the adopter which one to buy

[@abidanielle594]

I’m in Home Depot now and they just showed me something that was $70

[@sherrim6426]

Can I buy one from you?

[@rcool278]

Very easy to follow!!

[@afifjef2008]

Hi can i ask wht type of balloon u use??

[@tiffany6214]

Great video as always.... If you put a stuff animal inside the balloon. How do you get it to stand up and it stay standing?

[@AmazingBalloonGuy]

+Tiffany Pollard You need to tie a string to it then reinflate and tie

ok, thanks.

[@laytonyadunbar9246]

Thank you for sharing!!! When you pull the top of the balloon off of the pipe to tie it, will the balloon keep its shape while you tie?

[@sonyacreel6600]

Yes it will and I believe u simply then tie it and remove the lid ans retrieve the stuffed balloon.
