Acrylic Do’s & Don’ts- YES

@atulesh007 2 года назад

you are absolutely right about acrylic getting scratched super easy, i use clear tinting film for the opposite side of acrylic, its way easier to clean and doesnt get scratched and easy to replace.

@trinity8675309 3 года назад

While I'm not into woodworking at all, I wanted to let you know this was a great video. I really enjoyed how you explained your design decisions and discussed what you'd do differently for future iterations. Great job!

@davidgagnon2849 4 года назад

This is a great build. I like that you were able to use acrylic for the whole enclosure and leave the edges so they distribute the muted light. The LED light strips are easy to work with and since you were wrapping it inside, you were able to make the box with the corners in the right place for the bend. That was pretty clever, too. If you do decide to make a video dedicated to working with acrylic, I think it would be very well received. I've had limited use with it and have had chipping issues, but this video helped me with that for future projects. And of course there's the problem with static buildup that attracts every piece of dust in the room, so I'd like to hear your ideas concerning that. Keep up the good work, sir!

@beal5666 4 года назад

Amazing as usual! Love the look of the infinity mirror ideas!

@zonafied4814 4 года назад

Great tutorial!! I like the way you frosted the ends. Inspiration for my next project. Thanks!!!

@sirlordepicname8692 Год назад

Wow. This is really helpful, ESPECIALLY with putting things in the mirror, and giving a visual for how different distances affect depth. Thank you sir!

@piyalibanerjie 3 года назад

Oh I found all the links for materials! Thank you

@zonafied4814 3 года назад

Thanks for the tutorial. Inspired me to turn a coffee table into a tv lift and wrap it in infinity mirrors. Thanks for the great work!!!

When people leave a thumbs down,👎🏼, why don’t they leave feedback as well?

@davidgagnon2849 4 года назад

Well, I for one have never left this maker a thumbs down. But when I do leave a thumbs down for a RU-vidr, I rarely leave a comment. Somehow I feel that rubbing salt in the wound is not needed. But I understand what you mean; I guess it could be productive if done well. ;-)

@ekowahyuwibowo9494 4 года назад

And i love creative people, lot of ideas and imagination to fulfill 😊

@RubberTag 2 года назад

Awesome! Love your explanation! Will hopefully try somethis similar soon.

@Backtrap1943 4 года назад

Looks dope, thanks for the explanation! Keep it up! Looking forward to your next idea.

@woodaddict1 4 года назад

We had those back in the 70s 😎 very cool. I just learned about the different type of acrylic. ie cast vs extruded but would like to know more about acrylics.

@InspireWoodcraft 4 года назад

That's funny I was thinking it had sort of a 70's vibe as well.

@n33oh 3 года назад

Dope, waiting for the sequel Very detailed explanation in terms a 4 year old could understand This is how detailed all diy videos should be

@mirocapin4759 4 года назад

Great job, I'll surely try👍😀

@MrSnipper805 Год назад

That was awesome I am going to try it sometime. Thank you for the lesson

@chippysteve4524 2 года назад

Great work dude.Excellent YT channel. Regarding the edging detail-I think that 'frosting' brightens the outside relative to the inside so makes the inside 'appear' less bright so tinting or blackening the edge just stops that dazzle by absorbing the otherwise lost'stray light around the edge,increasing the contrast and thus making inside 'appear' brighter,as would e.g. a darkened room..

@augusarchitec788 4 года назад

Very cool video!! Love your content.

@PulseCodeModulate 4 месяца назад

Great Job. Let me share another simple trick. If you have access to a Cricut vinyl cutter you can create a frosted glass name, logo or whatever you like and apply it to the back glass mirror. This will scatter the light and brightly illuminate the logo. If your mirror is acrylic use the frosted glass vinyl sold at Wal-Mart... last time I checked it is where the Contact paper is sold in housewares. If you want to go a bit fancier ON GLASS, you can acid etch the logo using the vinyl cut out as a mask. Armour etch acid is the brand I have. Thanks for the video!

@mmanojkumar5770 4 года назад

@davidyeo4302 4 года назад

Another awesome project! I've seen these before and wondered how difficult it would be to replicate. With your motivation/instruction, I going to have to try it for myself. Thanks you!

@InspireWoodcraft 4 года назад

Thanks for taking the time to watch! I love how many different ways you could construct something like this.

@jasonscheid4055 3 года назад

do you think this type acrylic installation could be used forba scooter deck? possibly creating some type of design inside to reinforce for weight and stress?

@piyalibanerjie 3 года назад

Hi There! Love this. You make this look SO easy. :) Can you share the name of the tape and lights? Also where did you get the one way mirror from? I usually use plexi glass and lay down one of those films which people use for car windows.

"glass does come in a frosted flavor" somehow I knew you're gonna say that 😂

@AllysonWonderlandOfResin 8 месяцев назад

Did u end up making the other versions of infinity mirrors? I eagerly scrolled thru ur videos hoping that I’d come across them. This is a project I’ve wanted to tackle after I seen one my Aunt had when I was kid. I have all the materials & knowledge but had the same thought process, WHICH VERSION SHOULD I MAKE? I’ve seen lots of idea’s & love to see how people add different methods for unique effects! Thank u for sharing all the exact details, taking the time to film, edit & post this diy. Hope u add the other versions u mentioned…pretty please!?😊

@ronaldcole4398 Год назад

I worked for an aquarium manufacturing company in the 1970’s. We built an infinity aquarium. The fish would repeat themselves to infinity. The downside was that the water had to be crystal clear… dirty water just got dirtier with each repeti on.

What are the dimmensions of the frame and the mirrors? This was an awesome diy btw!

@johnnybuoy9551 3 года назад

hey I've always wondered that do we need to put the Two way reflective sheet on the entire surface... or can we put it just under the LED strips? Like if the LED strip is on the circumference then we can put the 2 way reflective sheet on just the circumference of the glass plate? Will that work?

@drashwinpradhan9356 Год назад

awesome man thanks

@phoenixset6401 3 года назад

How about a pedestrian alley with trees in both sides making like a tunnel, i'm prety sure it will look awesome. Great video btw, thank you.

You can think of pasting the pp film over acrylic to prevent scratches

@SGuilarducci 2 года назад

Firstly congratulations for the channel and excellent work. What name on the red ribbon do you use? I didn't find it in Brazil

@SunJ79 3 года назад

Blue tape the acrylic down the tablesaw cut line-reduces chips immensely.

@roblosie9253 Год назад

Good stuff ..was thinking about how you stress it scratches very easily. Could one coat acrylic with something? Like a polyurethane substance , because like you said it cheap and not hard to find. Great video keep em coming!

Question by buying a Blade how many teeth do you recommend that should be on the blade.

@Burdenofproof007 11 месяцев назад

What would happen if you put the LEDs on the outside of the frosted acrylic. You would still have the same effect just muted a bit I'm thinking. Like to see one if you've tried that.

@kenairockband 3 года назад

I’ve always wanted a Dan Armstrong acrylic guitar. Never considered the scratch factor.

@fibonojomano5369 4 года назад

How would it look like, if you were to hang it on the cealing 🔝 with something that looks like a stove and turn it on

@danwarners7644 7 месяцев назад

Have you ever tried laser etching the mirror or the 2 way mirror? I was wondering how that would turn out.

@aqsaamri1467 3 года назад

Have you ever tried using letters in the middle of the mirror? Will it look good too?

@albertjacobs7353 2 года назад

Al Jacobs Excellent video but using the parts list and Amazon address I do not get to any part?? 🙃

@cryptosully2357 10 месяцев назад

You can also use a wood blade if you turn the blade around. So it runs backwards. Need to take small bits.

Have you ever tried to cut half inch acrylic? I just got a bunch of it. I can cut it with a hand saw if I have 10 minutes for every 12 inches of cut.

You should try a infinity table

@InspireWoodcraft 4 года назад

Yeah I actually have a few unique ideas for a table project. I like the table idea more almost because the effect sells even more when something is set down on top of it.
