3 Quick and Easy Fantasy Projects

[@hellsing6591]

If you need a laser cutter I highly reccomend checking with your local maker space. You may be able to rent cut time. So be as fancy as you want.

[@violetsidhe]

Yes our local library has a maker’s space that I may visit in a frequent basis lol

[@spazzypotato8325]

Not just maker spaces i go to my local screen printer who has a laser and give them an illustrator file and a few bucks and boom fancy laser stuffs

[@italianbookworm]

The main branch of our library has a really nice maker space with lots of fun/interesting equipment. And they only charge you for any consumed materials, not for using equipment/space/run times, none of that.

[@Wreckz_Tea]

I don't have any of those near me anywhere. Y'all are lucky

[@dragonheart2165]

My brother just so happens to have one

[@amygriem1761]

BEST CHANNEL EVER!!!! I’m learning soooooo much!!! Thank you for channel!!!!

[@DanielLee-wc9gb]

Just goes to show that projects don't have to be big or complicated to be cool and useful. Love this channel!

#tree #crack I've been cracking whips for 14 years now since I was 8 and now I finally have a friend group that is bringing me into their dnd world too. I just finished creating my character Belreak Brushwood. He's a himbo half elf rogue for lack of better words and he has a bullwhip. This would be something amazing to add to my kit whenever I get to cosplay Belreak at a larp or something!

[@AzraelThanatos]

#CRACK If you want an easy defuser for light with something like the first one, just use acryllic and a light roughing with sandpaper. Make sure it's the interior side there when you do it. As a major warning concerning using leather with a laser, if you're using the cheaper chrome tan options, do not use a laser with it. If it's from some of the more known tanneries and/or sources, you're fine, but there's several that use an older method that uses a not so safe form of the chromium that goes toxic when lasered...modern and more standard chrome tan use a different form that's safe to laser. I'd researched that a bit ago when I lasered out a few maps on a laser etcher as gifts. Just don't go cheap for the leather and you're fine as most suppliers use the standard type, but you can get some cheap import ones that aren't so good there.

[@okeoke2229]

Very fun to see small things come together. #tree #crack

[@KristinMoran]

In the SCA a lot of belt favors are cloth - my favorite has small pockets sewn in so you can carry useful items. It was gifted to me from another retainer, containing bits & bobs I might need while retaining for royalty or my baron/baroness. That leather #Tree design is sharp!

[@TeenieBee72]

I spent multiple hours with a, manual, die cutting machine making paper lanterns for Christmas decorations. I used 90gsm parchment paper for the windows instead of tissue paper. #Tree I would love to wear your badge over on the Scottish side of the Atlantic!

[@Sherwood-TN]

Sir, you've inspired me to go from a guy who just goes to work and plays video games as my entire life, to actually making things with my hands and getting out in the world to enjoy them. Thank you! And these videos just keep getting better and better. Keep em coming! #TREE!

[@amilliyahdubrinsky1411]

Thank you so much to both Skill Tree and the maker of the bullwhip #Crack! It is so very well done!

[@Lillyluri]

Congratulations on the laser cutter! I hope you won't forget to keep reminding us of how to do things by hand, considering the motivating effect of this channel comes in large part from _anyone can cook._ But it's so sweet how you have a way of shortening repetitive tasks, or making many more copies of something. Or just making neat and nifty things.

[@beckymurphy4714]

I think when I take a #crack at making those lanterns I'll do each #tree as a different season, and maybe use tinted resin for the "glass." They'd make neat holiday gifts.

[@azradyn470]

Thanks to the #Tree for inspiring so many of the projects I've learned to do. Next LARP I have a chance to go to, if you guys are in attendance, I'll be sure to bring my good friend Elijah Craig and introduce him to y'all!

[@magistermurray]

#tree. I love all the projects and Clever’s energy is intoxicating. It’s always a treat for my daughter and me to watch the videos together. Thanks for the great content.

[@streetsgamer42]

As someone with no crafting talent, I love watching those with talent make beautiful projects like the #Tree. Love the channel!

[@leverettcrum7858]

Love the new logo for #tree it looks so good.

[@nathanfolsom6172]

Thank you so much for inspiring all us self-proclaimed nerds. The amount of joy I felt when I just made the little health potions props, or the anticipation as I prepare to make a wand holster, there are no words. You guys are awesome and you send my imagination spinning in all the right directions for fun projects. As I work on a really tight budget, little projects like these are super cool and are often some of my favorite episodes. Thank you so much for all the great work you guys do. #crack, #tree

[@Phrogie]

Great timing, #tree... I have a symbol I need to make, and I didn't want to make a necklace. The belt favour will work perfectly. Thank you for the idea!

[@alisha8705]

Belt favors are so fun. I appreciate that you show multiple ways to do a project and incorporate the equipment you have available to you. #TREE

[@blakec1924]

Between #tree and #crack, you are going to be putting a lot of smiles on people’s faces. Love the belt shield idea and going to steal it for the LARP I am in!

[@ulrichsteenkamp4957]

I really love how you can make complicated things simple or easy to simple to understand and follow along with. It makes me want to #CRACK on and and make my own trinkets using the wisdom of the #TREE . Thank you.

[@ordnaelshideout]

That new #TREE logo looks awesome! 😍

[@electrochick2163]

I’m late to class professor but I’m here to learn to be a great artificer

[@mjollnir613]

A good tip I've found when engraving slate is to hit it with a clear lacquer first. It darkens the slate and really makes the engraving pop.

[@asriel4600]

It’s always an amazing day when skill tree uploads

[@muddy1052]

I know I look forward to it!

[@kyranthewalker9095]

I love how you split your projects both big and small into pretty simple straightforward steps. Helps demystify the process of crafting a lot of the projects. #Tree #Crack

[@Crowe_26]

I know you talked about a weatherproof variant for the lantern but I can only think about them melting into the mud XD And the #TREE badge looks awesome!

[@jessicargruendler]

#TREE I love how sometimes its the little, simple items that put the feather in your cap, so to speak. It can bring everything together and is the cherry on top. I cannot think of a way to say this without euphemisms.

[@johnmcnamara9716]

Thank you so much skill tree I am a disabled veteran getting in to doing your projects... Thank you it has help me during some hard times. And now doing leather projects of my own....i love leveling up my skills by watching you...safe travels.

[@Torrid_the_Gnome]

#Tree I would love one of those badges. I really need to start making more things.

[@LarimeWD]

The laser looks super cool but thanks for adding ways to pull these off that aren't laser expensive. It brings lot of joy to think about doing the fun stuff on the channel.

[@camille_la_chenille]

these little cardboard lanterns are so cute and I will totally make some for my room. It'll really add to the "old timey" ambiance I try to achieve on a very small budget.

[@steampunkzorua4182]

These are all so cool! Definitely plan on taking a #crack at those lanterns, they'd look great as decorations hanging from my #tree!

[@shannonlute2735]

These quick projects really #CRACK. All worthy additions to the Skill #TREE family.

[@mamaTspeaks]

Thank you for sharing

[@madkat1287]

#tree #crack Thank you for sharing everything you do. You have inspired me and stoked the spark for my own crafting. I also love how excited you get over a project. It cements my drive and allows me to crack on. Love and Light

[@MattProvance]

Sir! I suggest you purchase some 1x2x3 blocks. They are designed for machinists but they are heavy, dead square, and have threads you can screw things into. Excellent for weighing things down, or keeping things square to each other if, say, you need to hot glue them together.

[@legocathedral3248]

Wow. The #tree lanterns are dead simple and I have some slate coasters that are in need of an upgrade!

[@melodycorser-weatherby299]

I love how you can brake down complicated things to simple or easy to understand steps that can be modified by what is available etc. #CRACK #TREE . Thank you.

[@C.Montgomery]

Always love these simple craft videos for there well though out designs for the casual viewer. Can't wait to see what project you come up with next #tree #crack

[@rhf340]

Thanks for these small projects that look so amazing! #crack #tree

[@Casserole391]

As a real life archaeologist I'm absolutely LIVING for all the little artifact themed things and my current character I'm workshopping is also one and so that has all been crazy nice to see #tree #crack we live 💅

[@cognitivedischarge9178]

This episode reminded me of how much I want a laser cutter!

[@tiffanybledsoe4591]

Wow, I'm studying coding and the advice is always to do small projects to give yourself a little confidence boost. And here you do it in real life. cool.

[@Patrick-it8nk]

I can just imagine how satisfying the #crack would be spooking varmints off my property, and especially away from my chicken's run, with that beautiful piece! Would also be beautiful in some costume or cosplay. Great video as always, guys! Always a useful #tree of knowledge.

[@andytripp2002]

always #tree vids...always makes me excited to work on projects!

[@ElliottRodgers]

That emgraved stone in so epic. could do so much with a laser engraving/cutter if I had the money and space.... but mainly the money.

[@Bluebelle51]

You could use the plastic off a milk bottle to make the light diffuser, for use outdoors

[@Menethias]

The #TREE never disappoints!

[@flmoose1]

Hit the slate with a satin or matte clear coat prior to laser engraving. Makes It pop!

[@Kai-Xi]

Those lanterns would fit great in a tavern if you guys ever do get to run your own larp!

[@ianwalker3144]

Love the #Tree badge! and the lantern is DOPE! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@bear788]

I always enjoy Thursdays, great little projects. I think me and my daughter will make some of the lamps for Halloween. #Crack, #Tree

[@kennpeters1973]

Skill #Tree has become one of my favorite crafting channels. I haven't been able to make many projects, but I know the videos are there to go to.

[@CalliopePony]

If you want to make the lamp a little more durable but just as easy you could use sheer fabric instead of the tissue paper. Different weights and textures can give different diffusion effects.

[@joshuarogue9345]

I love the belt badges. Its kinda like showing what school we studied at for LARP crafting lol.

[@andybarker]

I will definitely be doing a slate carving project after seeing this - excellent idea.

[@Sgt_Potato_1]

I think the little lantern could be a part of an even more cool project that would be pretty fun to try. Those paper lanterns that fly in the sky with a candle in them also work to just float depending on the weight. I'll try it to see if my theory works, but imagine attaching the lantern made of light basswood to a string and a rock or other weight. Then attach strings to a paper lantern large enough to float the smaller lantern with a few tea lights keeping it afloat. Bam. A floating lantern to place outside your larp tent with a lighted balloon above it! Great way to find your way back to your tent maybe?

[@SeethLord]

Always blown away by the creativity of Skill #TREE ! Thank you for all that youve taught, great sage.

[@ropeany1]

Those all look great. One thing you can do with your slate engravings is to hit them with a little clear varnish to make the engravings pop a bit more.

[@EricWagoner1]

I love little things like this, even more than big showpiece projects that require using more of the #tree.

[@whoahanant]

There's also semi opaque diffusing foam. So if you don't want to use tissue paper or plastic ect, there's a white foam that's used to diffuse LED lights.

[@georgeveckungs8845]

Love the #Tree belt favours! Having one that stood out as much as that would have saved me from many a friendly fire incident.

[@kameljoe21]

Laser cutters are super cool. Just so many projects one could do with it. The trick is a really user friendly software. Was busy the last couple of days doing stuff so I was late watching! The candle things are quite cool.

[@Asvoria]

#TREE You keep showing me projects to make and skills that I would like to get into.

[@koriumlab]

All praise the Skill #TREE !

[@vojtachmelik4056]

The #Tree badge looks great and inspired me to go work on my projects, thank you.

[@chillaxter13]

I'm not all that crafty myself, yet... but with the help of the skill #tree I'm getting better all the time. Love these simple projects!

[@nateddr]

Absolutely love the new #tree logo, this rebranding is looking super sharp!! Also the #crack on that whip is perfection, would love to have that.

[@DH-xw6jp]

I made placards (for table seating, and buffet tags) for my mom's wedding out of those little slate coasters and metallic paint, but I never would have thought about lazer engraving a slate tablet! That looks so cool... Now i just need to find someone to make a stone replica of the Dragon Stone from Elder Scrolls V

[@mariefriesen5948]

Absolutely love your engraved slate! And the #Tree is definitely fun!

[@SvRijswijck]

Awesome work on the lamps. I might just need to make a handful of them for our LARP. #TREE

[@UnderDug1]

#Tree and #Crack Wow. I REALLY like that lamp idea. Easy to do and potentially profitable.

[@jonathonroepcke7938]

I always get excited when I open up KZbin and see that there is a new video from you guys. Keep up the great work and keep up the amazing attitudes you always seem to show. Keep leveling up everyone. #TREE #CRACK

[@Pikachu34545312]

if you are interested for the lantern project if you put a mirror in the bottom and top it will actually reflect the light and make it brighter so you can see a bit better

[@TheBlackharp]

That #Tree Badge is fantastic! Now I need to find a way to get #CRACK ing on it.

[@macgyverblumenshine5589]

The #Tree is a great vibe. Also, Whip #Crack went his wippy tail.

[@porkchopulator]

I love the #TREE badge. I made a Star Trek one for a friend with magnets. That whip is some slick business, so I certainly wouldn't mind having a #CRACK at it.

[@captainpanda5533]

Have you ever done any trapped boxes, or alarm mechanisms, or gadgets that can be set and disarmed? I'd love to see those kind of things!

[@MinganLykos]

I like the idea of the tree badge! You should make a file to be printed / lasered for people to use!

[@italianbookworm]

Skill #tree has given me a lot of ideas for new projects and really inspired me on picking up leather working beyond the bag I made for faire out of scraps last year.

[@echopapa5875]

#TREE What a cool idea. I met a few fellow Skill Tree fans last year at my local RenFaire!

[@OdditiesObserved]

#TREE Digging these mini projects. They are so easy to pick up on a whim, and customize to your personal needs!

[@phillfails]

Really great little projects! #tree nice for me to attempt with my leather working tools

[@ceikaceiblayde144]

Loving all the cool stuff I'm learning how to do with the #Tree!

[@garysmith9823]

Looks great. I'll save it for my Friday night youtube catch up.

[@timmccarver4121]

#Tree. Giving it a shot! Appreciate what you do!

[@rustytad83]

Love the slate idea and upset I hadn't thought of it sooner.

[@coreyz.2800]

#Tree I would really love to see what sort of concept and final design you could come up with for a Skill Tree championship belt. Like, I don't know if you're much of a wrestling fan but if you are it would be cool to see what you'd come up with. Plus it's a great opportunity to experiment with and showcase a ton of the skills already touched upon on this channel, like leather tooling and dyeing, metal casting and plating (I really want to learn how to do multi-type casting, like to plate the lip with gold/brass, the background with silver/nickel, and the logo with copper just as an example. The project would also be a chance to work on other skills like painting details/fill on metal as well as setting stones. Plus it's just really fun to walk around with one of these big honkin' belts over your shoulder. Like you just can't help but stand up a little straighter and strut a bit.

[@hollyingraham3980]

If you change the #tree for something more personal, from your gaming group or favorite books, you should be able to #crack these out as gifts for the winter holidays ready to pounce. Only two and a half months to make something for everyone! Not to mention party decor for Halloween. I see that as only eight weekends to devote to crafting (November is jammed).

[@alessandrodipaolo1462]

Cool project, the #TREE is so cool!

[@oakmaiden2133]

Instead of a paper liner, up cycle a thin fabric scarf and get a stained glass look. The fabric can be sprayed with a clear coat to water proof your lantern.

[@dragonheart2165]

Thank you so much for all the videos and being consistent, the #Tree is super cool.

[@wow_im_prehistoric]

Honestly the new #Tree looks really good, keep up the good work

[@Celestial_Maiden_Taurus]

That badge is the best! I am a member of the #TREE!

[@ChaseG5908]

It’s things like this that help build out the #TREE of creativity to fuel my own projects and ideas for games and ambitious projects. Doesn’t have to be a huge elaborate project (which are just as great) but something simple like this. So appreciative of this channel and community ❤

[@TheHordeOfPinecrest]

Oooooh that slate is awesome... I'd love to take a #CRACK at making one myself

[@kgarri342]

These are all so fun!! Love these quick little projects! #tree #crack

[@scottboxold5877]

Figure I should tell you that you've inspired me to try my hand at leatherworking. Got everything coming in tomorrow. Greatly appreciate the huge amounts of info you give in a straight forward way with so much enthusiasm with it. Keep it up skill #tree

[@ChristianRosenhagen]

Convinced, laser cutter on my xmas wish list.
