Making Bellatrix Lestrange's Wand ASMR

Spent FAR too long on this video...like weeks...
All the process is 'live' as it were - I thought the steam bending wouldn't fully work and actually intended to cut the shape out and then turn the shaft on the lathe for exciting viewing!

The "I must ~not~ subscribe" easter egg took a good laugh of me

[@BrianMills-uf2nn]

REALLY LIKE IT WHEN YOU HAVE THE CLOCK IN CAMERA SO PEOPLE CAN SEE HOW LONG WOOD WORKING TAKES, GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@garricksapprentice]

Yeah need to get one that goes twice as fast!

[@Loganberry]

A modern day Ollivander. So impressive man, love these videos.

[@thebrowneyesofmandalore]

This is insane! You are so unbelievable talented. Watching those whole process is so cool and fascinating. Bellatrix is one of my favorite characters in Harry Potter and I’ve always wondered how her wand would be made. Now I know. I always love how you insert bits of scenes into your videos. It ads a nice comical touch to your videos. Thank you! Can’t wait to see what you make next. Also now you can go around screaming “I Killed Sirius Black Hahahahah!”

[@Kolious_Thrace]

Mhh, not bad for a half-blood! 🐍💚🖤 Deranged but beloved character!!! Narcissa’s and Lucious’ wands are also amazing with their silver handles!

[@vicky-sl5qj]

i want to say a lot of things but im speechless. youre insanely talented ... the dedication, hardwork and attention to detail. thank you so much for doing this.

[@garricksapprentice]

Thank you so much 😀

[@hittingthewall]

Wow! Can't find a better word to describe your making of this wand. It looks amazing! Bellatrix' wand is one of my favourites. Thanks for making and sharing with us!

[@yourfavwonch]

Hers has always been my favorite. I mean, it's just so unique. Awesome to see you make it.

[@Lord_Vulkano]

If it wasn't because I saw the whole process and "knew" the specific features of the handmade wand, I wouldn't be able to tell them apart honestly, amazing job!

[@zpakk4499]

Most of the complex things in life get easier with each step you take towards the end. This is an example of something that get increasingly difficult due to the precision and lost work, should you make a mistake. Your talent is incredible. The balance between being able to manage the mental pressure and the product you are working on must be intense. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for making such a daunty task look so easy!

[@garricksapprentice]

Yeah very much working 24/7 here, one day...

[@germthebard]

Just wanted to say that I love watching your videos. I had no desire for woodworking in anyway before you but now I have something to do with my dad any time we see each other. So thank you

[@NIREL1989]

So much talent !! Your work is amazing!!! Your editing is brilliant! Bellatrix Lestrange is one of the least favorite wand for me... still appreciated the bloody hell out of this video Keep them coming! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@kingatheist7231]

You are a genius! I've had my wooden Elder wand (from you) for two years now and I still love it! This is definitely one of my favourite wands and the videos are more satisfying than ever to watch. I suppose you can even make the mount/stand if you haven't done that already. Absolutely brilliant! Would definitely recommend if anyone is considering buying one!

[@archiejmmiles6895]

I love how I said to myself “reasonably pliant” after the steaming and you played the clip 😂

[@rawdaaljawhary4174]

Thank you so much for sharing. Your process and talent are incredible. It's clear that you're a big fan, and I love your humor, too. This was just amazing to watch. It is magic.

[@kiraadavidson]

The time and craftsmanship that went into this is amazing, what a skill!

[@curtisgeorge5280]

If you add a cup of household ammonia to the water it will bend much easer. Same process just add ... and let soak, NO HEAT. I am enjoying your videos. Thank you.

[@douglewis5701]

wasn't sure how you were gonna get it to curve but you've surprised me. well done sir!!!!

[@HenryRavenscroft]

Your very talented wood worker. Love this video.

[@michaelmoore2591]

What incredible artistry and attention to detail.

[@K_K.4302]

I love your videos man. Gives me so much awe and all the scenes of the movies just makes me laugh 😂

[@jacquesdor50]

Great videos. Very watchable, nice editing and humour. Some people have too much talent.

[@garricksapprentice]

And simultaneously far too much time and not enough time at all!

[@katzgg]

I love seeing you bend the wand instead of carving to shape like so many others have

[@inquisitivelittlebird]

The Noble Collection should hire you. These look amazing!

[@garricksapprentice]

Hope so!

[@NebulousNix]

Got in to making wands a couple months ago. Absolutely love your videos! Especially this one since I'm trying to make a Bellatrix wand now. I don't have a lathe but I was able to get several different types of powered sanders, wood carving tools and a scroll saw from my Dad's shop. On top of my dremel and wood burning kit, it's been a blast learning it. Never would have thought about bending the wood to achieve the shape instead of just trying to cut it into shape. Also love the attention to detail and all the movie clips. Keep up the amazing work!

[@user-qp5ps8dn7k]

This is amazing! I hope I get to add this to my collection one day. Would you ever make Luna's 1st wand? As you will know you just can't find it anywhere.

[@ghost_java35]

There’s a ton of ppl on Etsy that will make it

[@jayscott306]

Third video in and I cannot remember the last time a turning video held my attention, so steadfast. I think the repairs are a big part of why your honest process has me ready to watch the rest. I searched wands as I'm working on Hermione's for a friend's granddaughter for Christmas. Looking forward to when you get to hers. I've made McGonagall's for my daughter. Keep up your project. Cheers!

[@garricksapprentice]

Thankyou! Tough old gig this KZbin melarkey, this was probably my biggest effort video!

[@4684peter]

This is honestly one of your best! I didn't think it would turn out that good in the beginning due to the bending but it came it brilliantly accurate and wood grain detailing on the handle gave it so much character 😍😍

[@garricksapprentice]

Thankyou - I'm planning to voiceover this one actually after the success of the most recent two!

[@cold_brew_kai8665]

I went through your channel last night and was surprised when I saw new one this morning

[@Throgman33]

Orlando Studios needs to hire this man

[@garricksapprentice]

That's the goal 👀

[@mr21m]

you are so unbelievably talented. it looks so real!

[@garricksapprentice]

Not talent, hard work!

[@Mohammedtoufiz]

A fascinating work of art "LOVE IT".

[@laevateintechnology5634]

Awesome video

[@tinaharris4082]

My favourite character is Bellatrix Lestrange and her wand is so unique then all of the other characters.

[@kshitijdeshpande3205]

That’s one well seasoned wand you got there!

[@F.Skuldd]

Just….PERFECT 👏🏻

[@naturesmosaic1264]

They look so cool!! best wands I’ve ever seen!

[@AndersmitLizenz]

This video is ART!❤

[@THusbands]

Really great work!

[@Benomaleno]

So cool! Just a note that the wands point outwards at Leavesden, if you want to replicate the wand wall 100% 😀 excited to see Harry’s wand get made!

[@garricksapprentice]

Yeah I underestimated the size available but suspect I might remake that wheel one day... If I can start making videos full time Harry's will definitely be last...

[@Benomaleno]

@@garricksapprentice love the tease of making his last! Any clues as to who’s next?! Would be cool to see an ‘improvement video’ of the official wooden wands

[@hollybates4577]

Absolute master craftsman. Your TT was right, this was very entertaining. Shared on my socials I hope it helps x

[@CrybabySlay_Kiri]

You’re a real Ollivander!

[@echristle]

Ayeeee I was in da videoooo You did a great job btw

[@nurhafizuddin]

Such an AMAZING job!!! Well done!!!! ❤️

[@RosalieLunaB]

Please do narcissa malfoys next! Also I love your channel and watching you recreate these wands. I know it takes time and money to make them but we love seeing your work. Keep doing what you’re doing ❤

[@elusiveDEVIANT]

This man is a wizard with wood. Most likely has druid heritage to work such magic. Deff olivanders replacement.

[@eldiegasoxd25]

MAAN!! U are the Real Olivander!!!

[@user-ep5fz8hn6y]

So beautiful

[@erwinvonsellner5110]

bros a real artist

[@algyno384]

Slughorns wand next

[@briansmythe7407]

Universal Studios, give this man a job. Not a request.

[@BabaEjo88]

Brill man, like a BOSS!!!

[@manharleen]

Very beautiful work!

[@BriansReadingHovel]

This was amazing! I'd love to see you make Salazar Slytherin's wand sometime! Snakewood is gorgeous

[@rebelwithoutaclue5693]

Fabulous work

[@camillaswart3959]

Wow a win for us Slytherins

[@rhodzmonserate2544]

I never thought that soaking is a way to bend a wood. 😮 That was a pro.

[@lenninmontiel4539]

He he he, he knows how to play itty bitty baby potter, Neville longbottom is it hows mum and dad. 🖤💚🖤💚🖤💚🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍

[@garricksapprentice]

better now they're about to be avengeddddd

[@robertcurley8406]

Lets. Everyone. Just. Calm down, shall we?

[@anonymoussimp1507]

I've always dreamt of having real Bellatrix's wand made of real wood 😭😍

[@SwimmerBrody13]

Just ordered Draco’s wooden wand! His wand is my favorite even though I am a ravenclaw also it’s crazy how your Wanda look better than the noble collection!

[@robertcurley8406]

You actually did it, I didn’t know how it could be done but you really did it, amazing work my boi, what’s next on your to do list of wands?

[@garricksapprentice]

Some quick ones next! Molly/Arthut/Umbridge if I can get the replicas...

[@DJ_Mystic]

@@garricksapprentice Well, Umbridge's wand is Birch, but I have to wonder what woods you'll be using for Arthur and Molly's wands.

[@garricksapprentice]

@@DJ_Mystic I've just been lent Molly's, the replica looks just like oak/ash so probably that, oak is a nice honest and hearty wood!

[@DJ_Mystic]

@@garricksapprentice A strong wood for a strong witch.

[@zaijiannagaebhashim876]

Harry Potter Is my always and forever favourite character and I will be a forever fan

[@vpconcepts9838]

That was incredible, thank you!! 👍💯✨

[@TomBruhh]

Wood - Worm -😮 gave me a good chuckle lmao

[@alanyoder7629]

I guess I cheated when I made my Bellatrix wand. I started with a curved branch and just carved away all the non necessary stuff. The lady who bought it recognized my intention to recreate this wand and was reasonably impressed. Yours is definitely better.

[@Thomasmictopas]

Hi Matt, I take a lot of inspiration from you and I’ve made two ones and I make a lot for my friends I’m a 10-year-old

[@sonicfreak04]

you did an awesome job on this, would you do viktor krum's wand? its one of my faves

[@garricksapprentice]

One day! I've already got an intro for it planned...

[@paulmua886]

PROFESSOR SLUGHORNS NEXT PLEASE!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ozarkscarguy540]

Walnut chisels so nicely.

[@garricksapprentice]

I disagree!

[@ozarkscarguy540]

@garricksapprentice maybe English is different than American black walnut in that regard.

[@ozarkscarguy540]

@garricksapprentice You was also chiseling a knot in this video. That's not easy with any wood. Black Walnut is almost made for hand tools.

[@duckysnest610]

Just WOW

[@victormarques8732]

Mds que vídeo maravilhoso de satisfatório, parabens cara, tremendo de um artista🤩😍❤🙏🏻

[@TalRohan]

very cool work, I enjoyed the little cuts although maybe just a smidge longer to hear the word properly Altogether very cool Thankyou

[@richardspencer7122]

Lovely to watch a master at work. I wonder what price you'd put on labour for this wand?

[@sheep1ewe]

Awesome!

[@br-ken_rec-rd]

You know it’s good when you literally can’t tell which is the one he made and which is the one that’s bought- aside from slight colour variation.

[@renanbarbosa1887]

VOCÊ é muito bom nisso parabéns ! realy satisfy!

[@garricksapprentice]

@@renanbarbosa1887 mucho gracias!

[@SerafiniAGaunt]

Amazing work as always!! :) Where do you purchase the lumber to make the wand woods accurate? Still not over how you managed to find that big a hunk of Elderberry for the Elder Wand one

[@garricksapprentice]

This walnut actually came from a friend who's tree they planted when they moved house blew down! I've got a good friend who sources a lot of elder for me...

[@SerafiniAGaunt]

@@garricksapprentice Oh no :( Hope they're okay! & this friend must be a wizard/witch lol cause I know Elderberry wood, at least at that size, is incredibly rare

[@BlueRanger068]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gregorbauer3075]

Nice work. But would you try to make the wand of Lord Volemort out of yew. I think it will be very interesting. 😁

[@garricksapprentice]

Got some yew with enough white wood already!... Some quicker wands first though...

[@gregorbauer3075]

@@garricksapprentice But you could maybe bleach the wood as well. I ask because I encountered this during my apprenticeship as a carpenter. Or do you think it‘s too dangerous? 😁

[@garricksapprentice]

@@gregorbauer3075 I've never really tried, but why not just use the white sap wood of yew?

[@gregorbauer3075]

@@garricksapprentice I was thinking more of bleaching - i.e. using hydrogen peroxide under the safety measures such as a breathing mask and thick rubber gloves. A word of warning: the smell is comparable to that of a litter box. But using the splint is also possible.😁

[@avivivekiyengar726]

Amazing work! Please make Voldemort's or Hermione's wand next!!

[@creepy-c0les847]

The way he dropped the other wand lol.

Todo eso tiene que hacer olivanderpara hacer una varita curva. A no... El es mago.... Eres genial...

I don't care if she's 57 and that she's old enough to be my mother, I still have a celebrity crush on Helena Bonham Carter ever since I saw her play Bellatrix Lestrange.

[@theyorkshireladyoyo]

Love ur videos keep them coming

[@liamcampbell4626]

When you do Lucius Malfoy's wand will you be adding the cane sheath and snake head handle?

[@garricksapprentice]

No half measures here... but it'll be a long time before I do it!

[@user-jf4if6vx9e]

I like how the wand is crooked in the middle almost like a evil witches nose/finger

[@PlasmaPhi]

Her wand got me thinking of Count Dooku's Lightsaber hilt for some reason...

[@Raven_Is_Baby]

Just curious. When your recreating the lines on the plastic wand to the wooden wand do you ever get scratch marks in the plastic confused with intentional lines to imitate wood?

[@suusj22]

What if this will be the most difficult wand to make. Making wood bend, is it like magic.

[@user-iy2hm3lc2c]

Could you please make professor sprout's wand.that would be nice.😊

[@defaultnoob1113]

I think her wand was the hardest to make because of that bendy handle

[@GKnineG]

Do you take orders? I mean this is perfect! I would love to get a wand made by you!

[@SmoothC92]

This one must've been the most tedious to complete. But you still made a fantastic wand nevertheless!

[@EK_Beast]

She has two wands so I wonder if you’ll ever make her second wand

[@LegoManiac_101]

Can you make Bellatrix’s replacement wand as well?

[@GuMoura10]

How about you transform this clock into a Harry Potter style using all the leftover wood?

Hello can you make a vacuum tube like you have to me so i can make a wand
