Is This How You Would Do It? - Resin Art - Ben's Worx Maker Vlogs

[@genajones2823]

The wings are backwards 😂. The skulls are awesome, and I love the mj frogs.

[@StrandedLifeform]

Fragon wings are backwards. For the MJ frogs, I think if you could put a white band on the hat would be cool. The skateboard skulls are cool.

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

I definitely agree with the white band on hat

[@LadyThoopie]

Yayyy, every night when I get into bed I look for a new vlog 😊 so glad to have you both helping me unwind from a long painful day!

[@MilkTheBandit]

It's been a long week with no vlog, glad you're back!

[@bobshupert7]

Every time you guys wear those hats, I hear the opening of "Smooth Criminal" in me head. 😂. Thanks for another great vlog!

[@roseosfromIreland]

Hi Ben & Nicole, they turned out great. Happy New year to you all. 🎉🎉

[@marybeth17]

Hi Ben & Nicole, the frogs turned out amazing. Sending you love & prayers from the States. Take care & have a blessed day.🙏🤗💗🇺🇸

[@michelleoliveira2853]

Hey guys, Glad your feeling better. I got sick Xmas night so I know how you feel / felt. I just wanted to say … You guys are perfect for each other. Ben you give Nicole positivity and Nicole you agree with Ben on just about everything. It’s really sweet. You have each others back no matter what! You are perfect for each other. I wish and hope one day I could find that.

[@mandy-janeart-mjdesignhous3600]

I have not seen a lady beettle since the 80's! They are everywhere and so so amazing and precious

[@calhoun1925]

The wings are upside down. The frogs are fantastic and you two make me smile.

[@jenniespradlin4909]

You should pour the back feet white like you did the front right and then glitter the front right like the test frog.

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

Also agree

[@marlan5681]

Sorry Nicole, I agree with Ben that the wings are on backwards :)

[@jimtimmons6497]

atlas brain teaser skull would be neat

[@trinatyler689]

Lol turn it over. 😅😅😅 Can you all keep me in your prayers I was in car accident a few days ago. We are in need of a car. I got a bit banged up but no major injury thank God. Love your videos they make me laugh and I learn from them too.

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@michelleoliveira2853]

So happy your back!

[@Katiebugs_crafts]

Glad your back, I really missed you 2. I was worried all week if you were ok. Checked daily for videos. My husband told me to email you to see if y'all were ok, didn't want to bother you. I love the Michael frogs they are cute. Do you know he first wrote the glove on his left hand in 1983 for his performance of Billy Jean. But did wear them on both hands thru his career. Depending on the tour he was on. Love ya guys stay healthy.

[@JayWillis2120]

Oh! Good idea!!!!! How about you fill a skull with books?

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

Great idea I think

[@jfish1313]

Very Cool MJs Got to go #TeamBen this time. Wings are backwards

[@ammo_skull]

Well sheet... I was just going to go to sleep... Looks like I better make myself a coffee! Missed watching you guys! Love and respect!! ❤️

[@broll-5260]

The frogs and the skulls both look great. The question about cleaning the mixers on the resiners mixing machine. An easy way to clean it is to let it drain off and then put them into a cup with denatured alcohol and turn it on. It will basically clean itself. Then just dry them off.

[@joeribak]

99% isopropyl alcohol (or, 91%) will also work.

[@geoffwarnes9327]

Love the MJ frogs ❤ but I think your Fragon wings are on backwards ☹️ Love the videos 👍❤️

[@dalemaclaren7576]

So happy yous are back ❤ Love the skulls and MJ frogs. Yous are absolutely adorable in your hats. I finally received my order from yous. I absolutely love the dragon book and pocket hug. Thank you so kindly for the free gifts. I will treasure everything forever ❤ Hopefully no more postal strikes here in Canada for quite a while. Take wonderful care and keep on creating and loving xoxo 😘 ❤

[@bensworxvlogs]

Thankyou!

[@littlewarriorshields939]

So stoked with the skateboard-skulls!! Thank you so much Ben & Nicole!! If you ever need any more offcuts - I know a guy! 😜🛡👍🏻

[@productofcharleston]

Glad to see y’all back!!

[@Guy-uy5gc]

Nicole, your mj impersonating 😂😂😂 , and right when I had a mouthful of soda 😂😂😂 .

[@janicecorbett3288]

Yeah 2025! May it be a whole lot better than 2024! Interested in the vac vs pressure pot demo. I think I have a vac chamber (not sure of the brand). But the technology stresses me out on a daily basis. So Nicole I just need to borrow Ben (or a version of) a few times. But currently where I am, it’s neg 5 celsius. Thankfully no snow unlike the southern parts of the US! Lol. In the US we refer to the red little ones as lady Bugs. But yes they are beetles. I have no idea how to tell the difference unless you ask them. Lol.

[@lawrencewagerman4686]

the skulls are awesome. - wings do look like they are on backwards. thanks for the smiles and HNY to you and your family.

[@JayWillis2120]

Oh my goodness. Glad you are back!!!! 😂

[@alisonmary1443]

So good to see you both. Loving the skull filled with wood bits looks like a head crammed with books, awesome! MJ frogs 😂 you guys are bringing new meaning to the humble frog, coolest dudes on the block lol. What about nail art rhinestones on the froggy foot? a one off. Thank you, Hope all are well, love to all.

[@julietteneylon4243]

The skulls look awsome it looks like books inside them and i love the MJ frogs. Great job guys

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

I thought the same thing.

[@kristinewithak8265]

Missed you! Awesome first vlog of 2025!

[@dorothymoore2859]

I love those skulls they look like they have books in them😊 full of knowledge.

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

"Turn 'em over and have a look!" I love it! MJ frogs and skateboard skulls look great! Oops, I think the wings are backward. So nice to see you two again! Thank you for another great visit to your shop! ❤

[@laurazakrzewski]

Hey. Received your package the other day. Also thanks for the free gifts!! Appreciate it.

[@bensworxvlogs]

Thankyou! 😊

[@sandrabrown2431]

Like frog think maybe white glitter

[@ellishansen8115]

I hope you turn something on the lathe with the skateboard pieces. Can't wait to see the MJ frogs!!

[@LisaOliverauthor]

Hehe, my Joker skull arrived today, thank you so much for the postcard and free gifts, too. I like the crazy hair look, so I spiked it all up and it's now joined his fellow skulls also bought from you, lol. So great to see you two having fun in the workshop - have a wonderful week :)

[@bensworxvlogs]

Thanks Lisa 😊

[@DirtBoyTrucker]

So with those off cuts, I wonder if you could make a small scale skateboard mold and do a clear pour over the wood. Might look cool if the pieces are lined up with the layers showing. Might be cool. Either way, happy to see you again in the new year

[@janicecorbett3288]

MJ frogs might need a red back/belly. Im a little older than you, but he had the iconic glove, which you nailed, white socks with black shoes, a hat and a red sparkly jacket. Red glitter would do it, with taped off areas for cleaned lines.

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

Definitely agree!

[@nancyollenburger2930]

Ben and Nicole, I just love watching your channel and seeing what you come up with. In the US, we call them Lady bugs, where you say Lady Beetle. Its interesting how we all have slightly different names for things. 3

[@mamasgonecreating1967]

Ben, I am so excited and it's all because of you guys. I ordered my Eligoo Saturn 4 Ultra and my Resiners air cleaning machine. I can't wait to get them. Thank you for giving me the confidence that I am buying quality for my money. You guys rock.

[@beaswingle9065]

Very nice I put a sea shell on the back leg it looks like he just came out of ocean 😊

[@captainkellykat5378]

Oh! Please do a "Book Brain" one. That would be so amazing. Love everything you guys do!

[@suesmith9202]

Wings definitely on the wrong way. On a bat the one point is it's elbow. And the multi points are the wings when folded up

[@jimtimmons6497]

I'm surprised you haven't done the singing cartoon frog

[@obispotlucy]

Glad to see you back. Happy New Year and look forward to seeing more vlogs soon.

[@atomicredhead]

Hey guys. Happy New year! Did I miss the video that you made your "sample" frog? I love it. How'd you pour it to keep the stars out of the solid color? Love you guys. And I love the black and white idea. Btw..MJ wore his glove on the left hand. LOL

[@beccasmama63]

the skateboard pieces in the skulls look like tiny books too. LOL

[@RayReptile]

33:58 The FrAGON's wings are 100% backwards. #QOTD Can you try some Turtles in Ninja Turtle colors? Cowabunga!

[@wendyjones3586]

The pieces turned out great . As always the vlog was perfect .. xx

[@garzilla7123]

Just a little thought my friend on how that lady bug got in there, if you turn around behind you while you are filming you will notice a big garage door that is wide open, that might be where it came in. LOL LOL 😂😂😂🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞 I think Ben is right the wings are on backwards. Sorry Nichole. 🤔😕😉 The 🐸 frogs turned out pretty cool. 👍 The skulls 💀 came out really awesome. 🙂👍👍👍

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

🤣🤣🤣

[@rowanstephenson3192]

You two are such a great team ❤

[@lechatbotte.]

lol Nicole stole the show with the intro. I’m gone lol.

[@OldsouLim73]

Anatomy 101 I love it! 😂

[@farmboy5010]

We have 12" of snow and supposed to get 4 to 5 more tomorrow and it's 20°f

[@terrybeam8320]

I LOVE THE BRAIN! AS ALWAYS AN AMAZING JOB 😎😎. LOVE TO YOU ALL ❤❤

[@adbellable]

The amount of gas dissolved in epoxy is dependent on the pressure, and when the pressure decreases, the gas will come out of solution. This is described by Henry's law, which states that the concentration of gas in a liquid increases with the pressure of the gas.

[@therandomsilentchannel7981]

Concerning the Fragon, I think the wings are positioned backwards. From my understanding, the difference between a pressure pot and a vacuum pot is as follows: Pressure Pot: This device involves adding air to generate pressure. That’s why pressure pots are typically made of metal, and the locks are located on the outside to keep them secure and keep the pressure in. The concept is similar to water pressure, where the greater the depth, the more pressure is exerted. In a pressure pot, the resin is compressed, which in turn compresses the air trapped within it to the point that it becomes invisible to the naked eye. This method effectively hides any air bubbles inside the resin. Vacuum Pot: This device works by sucking air out of the resin instead of compressing it. You can think of it like a vacuum cleaner; if you cover the end with your hand, it tries to pull your hand in. Using a vacuum pot can be messier, depending on the container and the amount of resin used, and it often requires more supervision. Any trapped air will be removed, and the resin will replace it. This is likely why "Stabilising Resin" is more liquid-like, as it can flow more easily to where the air used to be after it has been extracted. This method is effective at removing air from the resin. Of course, you can also combine both methods to achieve nearly 100% removal of air from your resin.

[@pamelah9093]

Love the skater brain skull!

[@AlienLeader4]

These are some awesome pieces. I am sure I am not alone but I catch my self talking out loud to You Tube videos all the time knowing they can not hear me. When the full skull had lowered. I was say ohh fill with black or a dark color it will make it pop. Keep up the amazing work guys. 👽

[@mialagunas8499]

In the us we call them lady bugs ❤ so excited to have a video this week! Hope you guys enjoyed your break!

[@dawnireland8514]

Glad you had a nice break, but I've missed your vlogs...

[@rosiepollard2478]

Great vlog as always guys.😊 Sorry Nicole but the “fragon’s” wings are backwards. The scolloped edge is at the back. Look at any pic of a bat for confirmation. Thanks for yet more great, fun content. ❤

[@pattygman4675]

Nice to have you guys back. 😂 Hair jokes.

[@kellyw.1779]

Hey Ben and Nicole! The "Fragon" wings are definitely backwards.😁 The skateboard chunks in the skulls look great! Looked like maybe some of the color might've kept them from being really clear but they are cool either way. The MJ frogs are super cute, the hats complete the theme. We're having a winter storm here in Texas and it's been cold, rainy and windy.🥶 North Texas might be getting some snow...wow! Big hugs!!😍🤩

[@TheConwoman3]

Frogs turned out cute. I like the purple skull better. Maybe purple eyes on it? ❤❤

[@moni588]

Skateboard skulls look great!

[@startrekuncleart2149]

Michael Jackson frogs 🐸🎩❤😂lol nice

[@BreezyBrickyard]

That was a thriller❤❤

[@kelliadkins9368]

you could use mica powder for the hand and socks with black resin

[@SavageLucy]

Loved it! I’m curious how the MJ frogs would look with a white drop swirl in the middle. Just a thought. Thanks for the entertainment!

[@texanasimmons1761]

I think the Fragons wings are backward. I had ordered a skull and octopus and they arrived today! I love them!!❤

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

Wings are definitely backwards. Base the look on a bat for reference. I love the whole fragon idea! I would, however, try to put a white hatband on the hats for the MJ frogs. They’re such a cute idea. The skateboard skulls are wicked cool! I’m going against the grain and choosing the clear skull.

[@leospitz6541]

As an undisputed expert on dragon, the wings are backwards, unless of course he flies like a gauruda bird.

[@kehotto1]

love the MJ frogs!

[@likebutton5445]

Fabulous episode 🙌

[@maryjensen5112]

on the frog fedoras you might want to add a white hat band an pinch the front on top.

[@connorevans6674]

It is snowing here in Arkansas today

[@connorevans6674]

Thanks Ben work's for the love. The snow is slowly melting today

[@MartinDemey]

In Belgium the bug is called "lieve heerbeestjes" 🙂 and yes glad you're back

[@isabelespada5102]

Que maravilla de trabajos hacéis ,enhorabuena un saludo desde España

[@teriwood9657]

In America, we call it a ladybug. They're supposed to be lucky.

[@MrMikie69]

#qotd can I please have the green degasser?? Haha seriously I really enjoy the vlogs you guys make us feel like your extended family . Still waiting for the office tour of keepers.

[@cathyomalley2772]

I would definitely like a video about the pressure pot. Because I brought one but it didn't come with cables.

[@lisamartin4928]

Love the hat's.

[@LisaVornhagen]

Sorry, but I think the fragon wings are backwards. Love the MJ frog! The glitter glove is really cool. The skulls are awesome, too. Those little pieces make me think of books. Also, licorice. I love those!

[@lindahobbs5545]

Great episode!

[@dianeh2420]

This is how i renember the difference between the pressure pot and the vacuum chamber.. PRESSURE BUILDS AND SQUEEZES ALL THE AIR OUT.... VACUUM PRESSES THE ITEM HARD LIKE COAL TO DIAMONDS, AND YOU PRAY FOR A DIAMOND TO COME OUT!!!😂😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤❤

[@steveschulkin8335]

Ben, Nicole, you guys did great on the MJ frogs. I think Michael's hat had a band of white similar to the hats you guys wore for the Thriller video if that helps any.😊 Nonetheless, outstanding ❤ sending much love your way.

[@ellishansen8115]

I think a solid color frog makes the MJ glitter glove stand out more, as opposed to a multi colored fancy one.

[@jamesmacswell9165]

Yes backwards pull up images of bat wings

[@charlesnorman1072]

I know the woods stiks work good to get those little block things out of the resin may be easier if Ben could turn a wooden spoon

[@BearBoxBreaks]

For a minute I thought you'd make a large egg from the skateboard off cuts. I think that would have been amazing. Maybe a small one with the left over pieces?? Oh and those fragon wings were backwards.

[@johntribou4715]

the wings are backwards

[@donaldfinch1411]

Pour a white hand then glitter over? Or what about " flocking"? Options options options. And then there's a half red half black with monster eyes for a " Thriller" frog. 😉

[@donaldfinch1411]

OMG I FEEL SO FAMOUS!!! ❤️

[@Tigermothresin_sandrabell64]

Here in the UK we call them LADYBIRDS or some say LADYBUG . Whatever way you say it, i like them. Love your MJ .maybe put the little eyes on the frog really bring it to life. Nice to see a butterfly, not seen many here. I would say back to front with the wings. Skulls are brilliant. 😊 QOTD, can you please show how to convert your blue pressure pot. As I have the same but not sure where to put the air hose cheers

[@snowballil3133]

Yes, the wings are backwards. Bird wings are pretty similar looking to bat and dragon wings (the shape) I just used the example of a bird because people see them more than bats.

[@AlpacaMade]

MJ frogs are great with just Phantom & silver. Sorry to say, Fragon's wings are backwards. But hey, we're all a little wonky at times😂👍

[@michellesuniqueboutique3405]

I think if u wanted to do white socks I'd do both feet all white then do his famous glitter glove n other black foot

[@Mitch-c4n]

#QOTD what is your fav item to make out of resin and why?

[@DirtBoyTrucker]

For the MJ theme, my most memorable look for Michael was the red zipper jacket. Not sure how to duplicate that in the frogs.
