GeekSummit's Wired Fabric Cape Tutorial 2021 

Hahah!!! Stay tuned!!! I plan on doing more in the near future!!!

You might experiment with the small roll (as big as electric tape) and see what you see there. I use the high-bond assortment because my hems are so small. I think what’s most important is that you use a 4-way stretch spandex. That way it’s stretching across the body as well as with the hens? Just a thought but seems important.

thanks. What is high bond assortment?

@@Augnalius I believe just the stronger adhesive

Heatnbond soft stretch comes in light and ultra. I guess ultra would be the same thing as the high bond assortement.

@@Augnalius you might be right. BUT I will stand by the 4way stretch of the fabric being a must. Likely takes a lot of the stress off your hems.

I do actually have this pattern for sale. I think I made about 10 of them stay tuned or seek me out on eBay.

@@GeekSummit What's your ebay store? I would like to buy 1 red and 1 black?

@@aldizon is like to have an EBay store set back up shortly. Stepped away from all that for a little bit.

It depends on the figure. The Rebirth Batman can for sure be done just like this. Other figures like Detective#1000 I’d recommend doing the work under the collar (check out my other videos).

You’ll want to use a thinner but slightly heavyweight polyester. Like what is used to make Halloween costumes.

What is that?

Not really. Just grab it firmly and pull. You may want to pop the arms out first so you’re just dealing with the torso.

@@GeekSummit I'm doing the same custom cape for this figure (I love its evil face), did you use a video to make the cape wired? I've already made two and I don't like the results, maybe the fabric, maybe my hands haha

@@vortex4813 my own recipe, didn’t use a video to make this video. I just made the video.

No lie, I don’t know the fabric TYPE, I work by touch when selecting fabrics. But this was definitely atleast a 2 way stretch polyester/cotton blend. It had a slight sports jersey texture/pattern to it. I hope that info helps some.
