    Just about every time I make a video, I think "Mannn, I SHOULD have mentioned this also." One of those things is: OF COURSE you can use something like a massager or sander with sandpaper removed to vibrate bubbles out of the mold. When making the Free-Range Chicken, we used a dual-head back massager and it worked very well. It may be ideal to fill the mold PARTIALLY, hit it with the vibration while you tilt it at different angles to allow any trapped bubbles to escape, then fill it the rest of the way and hit it with vibration some more. Happy casting to you! Steady Craftin videos are made with the help of DIRECT SUPPORT: www.patreon.com/steadycraftin (You'll also get access to the printable 3D scans of my original sculpted figures, MP3s, exclusive behind-the-scenes videos, shop discounts, and more.) My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.

    I'm sorry Crafsman, but your channel is the highest quality channel on YouTube. Every aspect is the perfect balance of well thought out creativity and random humor.

    On the pre-shake I was expecting him to say, "shake it like a Polaroid picture." LOL
  • He's a musician 😲. This man must have buckets of talent in his workshop next to the resin or something

    “Crafsman, you’re so ridiculous”. - correction: Crafsman you’re perfectly ridiculous, or more correctly ridiculously perfect! Thank you for sharing your wonderful self with us.
  • @LG-vd8se
    I was one of those folks who emailed you regarding bubbles and you very kindly replied with a detailed and thoughtful email with tons of ideas. THANK YOU CRAFSMAN... you da best!
  • @mf1ve
    "Crafsman, Crafsman, I get bubbles..." I giggled.
  • @UncleJessy
    Attempting my first molds soon! Can’t wait.
  • @BobBob-qg4lo
    Hes just such a beacon of positivity, I love it so much
  • @robinbunn
    I was just thinking, "I wonder why I haven't seen any crafsman video on my feed lately, am I subscribed?" and I was subscribed, they just never appeared. So this makes me think it has something to do with the youtube algorythm. The quality of your videos is outstanding, and I say this with love. I have heard of youtubers changing their thumbnail design to appeal to the algorythm. I hope this helps Crafsman, we want to see you thrive!!
  • @linzertube
    CrafsMan, while you searched for cups at the end, your singing made me very happy, because I realized that YOU MUST BE HAPPY to be singing, while you fiddle around getting things done. That’s really nice.
  • @Ephunker89
    Your tone Your style Your teaching style Your musical talents Your crafts Your anecdotes Your videos on random things as well All of these are truly a blessing Crafsman. Thanks for taking the time in this short life to entertain and teach us. Can't wait for you to break a million subscribers. It's gonna happen my dude.

  • @Holktube
    Thank you for the bird sounds in the background. Its been snowy and silent where I live for about a month, and it did me well to hear.
  • @seoultron4581
    Every video teaches me a shortcut to avoid errors in my craft. Thank you for these productions
  • @NewbombedTurk
    Crafsman, the quality in the video is you, and Crafsfamily. If people need music in the videos for them to be better, then they need to turn on their radio in the background.
