This Resin Experiments Results Will Shock You

[@davegrove795]

Not sure if you read these, but beyond the skills you’re helping me build, I find myself just watching because I like hearing you talk. Keep ‘em coming!! ❤

[@palimino13]

Steve McDonald!!! You drive me crazy! I have to tell you why. When I first started watching you, I couldn’t get past your antics and the little things you said and did drove me crazy (like squigy whidgy etc) but you have so much knowledge that I kept watching and kept watching and now I just can’t stop and I love all of your little sayings and I do have to tell you, when you try on your earrings that you make, yes honey! You DO look pretty in them!! I really enjoy watching you. In all reality, you are a breath of fresh air to watch. Thank you for the knowledge that you share. I bought one of your jewelry kits and love it. If I could afford to be a member I would. I would love to be able to pick your brain a bit on some of the problems I’ve encountered with some of my projects. I guess it will have to wait till I can afford it. I tried to support you with buying your kit though, i do hope you got some of the money from it. Keep making your videos! The world needs you.

Nebula is my favorite, but they are all appealing. Thank you. 🦋✨🕊

[@dianeh2420]

I love all 9f them but the nebuli one is great!! Thank you so much for your knowledge.❤️🤗🙏💯

[@christinevenner183]

Love your experiments! You seem to have an unending imagination when it comes to things to try with resin. :)

[@FranklinDesignsAU]

Lovely.. OMG trying to resist the urge to keep moving or stirring the resin… 😅 love what you do…

[@Lourin911]

Thank you for all of these experiments. Just lovely!

[@moniquewilson8989]

Sir, thank you so much for the work that you put into creating entertaining and informative videos. I learn something from every one and I have watched quite a few. I am truly fascinated that you are colorblind and still create wonderful pieces. Please continue to be the lovely, funny, compassionate and intelligent person that you are.😺

I loved the square...very cool effect 😊

[@ZippedUpKitz]

Those were cool! Loved them under the lights!!! Super cool! :)

[@richardbriansmith8562]

Awesome Video steve McDonald

[@dollybrown1993]

Awesome!! Thanks for all your efforts to help us. Stay safe, you do you, and stay crafty 👍👍🛎️🛎️🦋🦋

[@Made4YouResin]

The blue pyramid is my fav!

[@lynn6799]

Those came out pretty cool. I'm going to have to try that. Today, I experimented with using cheap eyeshadow powder in place of mica powder. The difference is huge. Mica powder gives consistent color throughout. So does food coloring. But eyeshadow, depending on well you break it up, gives a little translucent color along with lots of colored flakes and gives the resin a speckled egg like appearance. I can't wait to demold it and see how it looks once cured.

[@jaxgonsalves]

Very very cool! Thank you for you fun and interesting content!

[@barbseed4434]

Love the galaxy effect!

[@beebob51]

Well done! Very interesting. Thanks for the video. 🎨

[@mariverhagen8082]

Very cool effects

[@nicholas87541]

Great experiments! A larger sphere would look lovely I am sure!! Looking forward to what all you have coming up regardless!

[@bubblemum]

I like using the ball molds, but I LOVE using my egg shaped molds. They make great jewelry and Easter is coming, so they should sell well for you too!

[@michelledetoth7503]

Brilliant!!!

[@tinawheaton270]

Steve, those turned out awesome. Really like the one that looks like flames. I can't thank you enough for the videos you share and the experiments you do.

[@eddiej4256]

Thanks. I'm new to resin. Your videos are so helpful

[@elenavaccaro339]

Very nice! Love the lights under them.

[@christinaperson1168]

These turned out great! I love the look of all of them. So glad that you found these alcohol inks and that you show what you do with them. Big thumbs up on this one! Thank you Steve 😊!!!

[@heatherm1758]

❤ love it as always

[@gothiccharms]

How wonderful! I love playing with alcohol inks. I recently had a 40 oz tumbler I was going to chuck into the f'it bucket but thought I'd play around with it. No loss if it didn't turn out. Used two color alcohol inks and matching micas and OMG it's a beauty! Just goes to show - you never know what you can create by accident. So don't be afraid to experiment! :) Thank you Steve for another lovely video! Hey, be sure to show off those earrings when you make them!

Hi Steve, Loved All your different pieces especially the pyramid one thanks for sharing Steve, I am only on u tube so that is how I watch you so please keep up all the awesome tutorials 👍✨❤️

Way cool!!

[@LisaVornhagen]

Those turned out so cool! I love them!

[@judithbeloate3829]

Love them. Turned out so pretty

[@gabriellehood8810]

Hey I dont know if you've tried it yet but what I find thicker acrylic white paint works great as a sinker

[@elizabethadams5699]

I agree with you. The Let’s Resin alcohol inks are the best. I’ve tried several other brands and they just didn’t do the color they were supposed to be.

[@JustConfused_24-7]

What does he mean when he says he’s using a sinker, and do you always have to use white first?

[@janalovelysaylor8677]

The white is a “sinker”. It pushes down the color to some degree. They have middle & bottom sinker white. I assume mixing with resin and mica would increase the specific gravity and make it sink more. 😊

[@JustConfused_24-7]

@@janalovelysaylor8677 thank you so much for telling me!! I kept hearing him say that in other videos but they were older and really didn’t think i would get a response on those lol!! Appreciate your help!!

[@shabbykat273]

Gorgeous results. Thanks!

[@WitchKing813]

I like alcohol inks, not used them recently I'm actually trying stuff with gold leaf. In the middle of making a necklace for my mum for mother's Day just haven't decided to keep what I've made our do it again lol, I have to many ideas my brain can't keep up. Maybe an egg shape with alcohol inks and gold leaf

[@robertalordagarcia9992]

Steve my favorite sweet and sassy crafter, I know I am not a member yet,but what's the difference between pigments, inks,and sinkers??? And is the black a sinker too???

[@dollybrown1993]

MY questions as well

[@Darkice77]

Do cotton balls it looks like smoke. Color it for awesome effects. A lot of cotton balls makes it look like stone.

[@Beautifuldisasterartstudio]

So for the “sinker” can it be any of the whites of ranger inks? I have snow cap and mixative I don’t want to try and it just waste a bunch of well stress lol 😊

[@jayneyhoulihana]

Great experiment, I think I need to invest in some new alcohol inks or see if the ones I've got will be ok, not had much luck with the ones I've already got

[@cheryldavenport2853]

Love your channel and videos. Question: this was in January '23 and in earlier one you said you didn't like alcohol inks. So what do you really think about it? I'm New and learning 😸

[@cheriboone]

What resin are you using. Mine does not seem to work 😢

[@Galahue]

I can not buy resincrete in canada.. what else would you suggest please

[@beckihinson9269]

Can you do a project for dice 🎲 thank you 😊

[@jandavis6251]

I have a question. I made a pmc3 silver clay bezel which turned out beautifully. I put it on the uv tape and after the resin cured, the tape stuck to the resin. Did I cook it too long in the light? Hope someone can help me.

[@bellaannecgoff2335]

❤❤❤

[@susanhinton1923]

I am hoping you could give my friend and myself some advice,we love diamond painting ,if you are not familiar it is a bit like mosaics ; putting what they call coloured plastic diamonds or drills onto a pre printed adhesive canvas type substrate ; in a patterned grid like a cross stitch design .We are wanting to put them on trays and cover with a coat of resin ; Would the resin melt the diamonds ;they are very small .about 1/10 of an inch square you get 100 per square inch ;is there a resin that doesn't get hot as it cures ; We are in New Zealand and probably dont have the range of resins that you have access to Regards

[@christinaperson1168]

I have seen a post recently about them melting, but I would think they would be ok in UV resin because there isn't an exothermic reaction

[@palimino13]

I have used the drills in some of my resin projects and they hold up fine. I think you’ll be just fine.

[@ajnormandgroome]

I hear other KZbinrs say squidgy widgy and figure they must also watch your channel

[@LW89838]

I recently purchased a box of white alcohol ink that has 2 kinds middle and bottom sinker has anyone had experience with these.

[@megasider2011]

Use more white

[@hopeashleyful]

“These” resin experiments will shock you .. just sayin Steve 😊lol.
