In this video we fail, and we fail good and hard. BUT, we are not gonna let it keep us down, and we are going to learn from it and become better crafters as a result!

I go over my process of creating Lightning Bolt Dice as well as Health and Mana Potions for my patrons as a reward for the highest tier patrons. I do not succeed in either attempt.
It was a rough 2 weeks, and I just couldn't get the final products out in a way that I wanted to. However, the only time you truly lose, is when you let failures keep you down. So, I wanted to turn this into a learning opportunity, as that is truly what my channel is all about. (And you can bet that I'll be taking these projects down in a round 2!)

For clarification on the lightning bolt dice, there was uncured silicone around the numbers, so the resin didn't fill up the mold properly, and you can't actually get any numbers on the dice. They are also super hard to sand due to the shape without causing some issues. We'll knock it out in Round 2 I'm sure! 😁 Also for those asking, the creator of the file asked that I not share it, so I am going to respect their wishes. :) If they change their mind or decide to sell it, I'll link it up for you all.

@cheriemaves 4 года назад

Just to see what you're working with, you could use a glossy, clear spraypaint to coat the lightning bolts. But I think most of us watch your channel because you show your failures along the way. Great insight, thanks for the video!

@Fromplenickel 4 года назад

Have you considered getting a small tumbler for your 3d printed things like those lightning dice? Could be something to look into for smoothing down the roughness of complex shapes.

@soaringwyvern9251 4 года назад

the matte effect could be caused by the texture of the 3d print. you may be able to *polish* them a bit with acetone or something to smooth out the texture.

I never really understood why there are so many channels out there that are afraid to show when they fail or struggle. Failure is a part of any craft and it's important to realize that you shouldn't get discouraged by it! So I really appreciate the honesty of this video. Even if things went sideways, it was still educational and relatable.

@resinAce 4 года назад

Your health potions had the hallmark of resin that boiled due to an uncontrolled exothermic reaction due to pouring too deep (I have seen this many times 🤣 ). The technical data sheet for your brand of resin advises a maximum pour depth of 1/4". If you use a resin that is suited to deeper pours (you can get brands with pour depths up to 2") you should not have that problem. You will also find those resins cure slow enough to self degas without the need for vacuum or pressure.

Resin would boil when pressurized by 2+ atmospheres? I feel like I've done deeper pours without pressure and didn't get boiling. I don't have the exact figures infront of me for resin specifically, but pressurizing increases the boiling point by significant amounts.

I made health potion rollers for my players following your first video, and they were my first resin craft. I used a little more resin than you did in that video because I wanted the potions to look more full, and I had the same issue you did here with the resin pulling away, but I assumed I had done something wrong! Turns out, no, it's just because I don't have a vacuum chamber. Thanks for sharing your learning opportunities with us.

You could say the little line on the health potion is just a natural separation of layers of the the solvents and ingredients in the potion. Like a vinaigrette. "Shake well before use!" (which works doubly, because shaking these bottled dice is how you use them). No mistakes, just happy accidents :)

And If I ever get to it, I will make so much less mistakes, because you are courageous enough to show your mistakes to the world. So yeah, keep doing what you're doing, it's awesome By the way, I had a thought about the Sophie and Toffie molds: Have you thought about drilling a hole into the lid and inserting a pipette tip into it as reservoir? Dark moon dice did this with the alibaba wish molds that too don't have a reservoir. If you use punch pliers you should be able to get a perfect hole. The molds are really pretty so it's a shame you can't use them in the pressure pot

I'm so glad you show your failures on this channel. Literally, the other day I was trying to make some Pokeball dice, and due to all the different colors having different densities, my black kept floating to the top and distorting the other colors. But that's ok, because I'm gonna keep testing them and experimenting till I get them right! And I know I am a newbie to the dice game, but even getting to see pros like you mess up, defiantly reassures me that I will find a solution, and I know your 2nd/3rd tries will probably be just what you want.

I really love this type of video! ❤️ You're such a positive person and makes it great, even if things don't work out. Many channels show videos where everything goes great, and while that might be what they consider "good" content, it may possibly be only partially helpful. Sure you have all the steps, but someone trying it may think that BOOM! You can just knock it out! But if they have trouble with it and get frustrated, thinking that they can't do it because it looked so easy on RU-vid, they may quit all together. Sometimes things in RU-vid seem a little too perfect, and I feel videos like these can help us DIY'ers understand that failure is part of growing your craft! Don't give up! So thank you and keep it up!

I recently purchased a vacuum chamber to try to get my bubbly-mess of resin under control but you've got me jonesing for a pressure pot, which I think would be far better for my purposes... and well... that's a lot of ramble to say - you've helped me not give up on something I'm excited about & seeing you struggle with things makes me feel so much better & I just really appreciate it.

love your videos mate, this one has to be up there as a favourite. Showing your mistakes is how you learn and showing us that it happens will give others a ton of relief, I know it will for me once I get a casting kit up and going

It was nice to see some of the problems that can arise and it was better to see you put a positive spin on it. Overall very enjoyable to watch and I can’t wait to see round two of the lightening bolts~

You're completely fine!!! I'm always happy to see you upload whether it's an amazing set of dice or whether it's a process like this. If you keep communicating with us, I'm sure that nobody will be disappointed.

@hoorahforsnakes 4 года назад

it's always good to see someone's process. i think you can definitely learn a lot from this video. where you poured the extra bit of resin to fix the potions made me want even more for you to try making a multi-layered dice set tho. a similar sort of thing to what happened with the potions, except deliberate and with different colours for the layers.

This was a wonderful video. We've all been frustrated and just acknowledging that the people around us, whose skills we respect, also struggle and fail is very affirming. Thank you for sharing.

This is the video that got me subscribed! Cause I love the various projects. But it's nice to see that yes, you are a mortal human being and are not afraid to show us your mistakes and frustration. Well done!

So i just started dice making recently, i actually just got my pressure pot up and running and am making my second set of dice. You are the reason i was able to start and got interested in it, and thats all because of the fact that you aren't about trying to seem perfect and amazing. The fact that you are so humble and focus on shining light on your failures as well as your successes is the best thing for me. I love seeing what works, but i also love seeing what doesn't work so i can learn from it as well.

I loved this video. I love when professionals and people who I look up to are willing and comfortable with sharing their failures. It's an important thing to see, instead of just "here is the formula" but also "this is what happens when you get the formula wrong, now I know and now you know." It's both humanizing and inspiring, and makes me want to get into resin casting so much more. Thank you for sharing this, I always love your videos and this one is no exception (and I don't feel it's off brand for you. Your channel does very much feel like a "Guys I'm doing this experiment let's see what happens" and in a theme like that not all experementations are going to work out as you probably know well lol. So it doesn't seem out of character to post an experiment even if it failed, at least to me.)

Been watching your vids for about a year now, and love every single vid you post. Keep it up man, it always brings a smile to my face

@Anubis_TH 4 года назад

Man, I have to say, every time I see a new video from you, I'm giddy with excitement. I'm working on getting gear together to start making dice of my own for my players (and like 3000 more sets for myself, cause I have a problem) and you really are a big inspiration and my usual go-to when I'm stressing out or struggling with ideas for what I can do. Thank you so much. Sincerely, it means the world with everything going on. Keep up the amazing work, and success or failure, they always look amazing. I mean that

You have made me feel a good part better about my mistakes and failures, thank you much. I'm glad to see the process can be as grueling or fruitless as mine and that its ok.

I love seeing this side of crafters, sometimes I put myself in a bubble thinking im the only one struggling and fighting with current projects when im not the only one.

@DummyUrD 4 года назад

Dude these things are awesome and I think they are more helpful as well since you go into the failure points, a follow up will then be able to show how to solve for problems like these in general and how you overcame the issues you encountered in detail Awesome vid!

@godismetons 4 года назад

I really love your videos! Its so calming to me, to watch you work on these beautiful projects. and yes, the glamour shots are nice at the end, but I'm here because I love how you show your process and how you explain things. so even when things go wrong, I still really enjoy your video! and seeing the 5 k likes an 3 dislikes, I think I'm not the only one with this opinion. We all mess up some times, and you still made something great out of it! Thank you for sharing so honestly!

This was an awesome video and thank you for putting it out there. Very seldom do things work right the first time and it's great to see the process you work through.

@Br44n5m 4 года назад

It’s really nice to get the reminder that everyone makes mistakes and be shown examples, not only for people to learn from when taking on similar projects. I’ve been feeling incredibly frustrated whenever I try to draw for months now but hearing you talk about it being a learning experience is really helping! Throw some pasta at the wall, see if it sticks. And if it doesn’t experiment till you find a way to make it edible yet sticky~ the more mistakes you find, the more you can understand why it works, maybe!

@osramain 4 года назад

This video just increased my respect for you and your channel by tenfold. I loved your videos in general, but now I have so much more respect for the effort put into perfecting every one of them. Keep doing you, you're a beam of light in this time of darkness.

@kerielwatson3197 4 года назад

I love seeing people's failed experiments. As someone whose been playing with resin, sculpy, painting and loads of other things... Seeing the successful display their failures really helps me know my fails are normal and even a positive!
