I appreciate honest crafters - and you are not as messy as I am

@valerieromeos2806 Год назад

True story, when I first started playing in resin, I had no idea what mold release was. Saw a few vids and was using WD, as release agent, so a lot of my first pieces had that effect 😊

@tinawheaton270 Год назад

Steve, I don't know what I would do if I didn't find you on RU-vid. I'm learning so much from you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the experiments and tips you share.

@beverlyangry4767 Год назад

I agree! I've learned so much from Steve. I just love his channels.

@carlycharlesworth1497 Год назад

I think the effect it gives in the resin is amazing, the little cells were beautiful, especially the two square necklaces, especially once they had been domed on both sides. You make such gorgeous pieces Steve. God bless you and all those you love. Have a great weekend!

@debbrady497 Год назад

Love what you are able to come with❣️💖❤️ You are simply Amazing. Thank You Steve! 😊😊😊

@Lourin911 Месяц назад

@janalovelysaylor8677 Год назад

You are so gifted❣️ I’ve been wanting to join your group but have Zuckerberg issues. Wish you had the group on another platform.😢 Refuse to join FB for any reason. But carry on with the amazing classes!

@solunasassoon Год назад

I'm the same. I wouldn't join fb if my life depends on it. I just buy a coffee every month

@mamapillow8365 Год назад

Like many Americans, I am censored from FB. No idea why, no political posts, just no access.

@bernadettelawson2916 Год назад

Like Steve says at the start, he’s on Instagram too x

@janalovelysaylor8677 Год назад

Instagram is also a ‘no’ for me.

@X-157.98 Год назад

I wish more people would do the same.

@lindaeastment4542 Год назад

Hi Steve, WOW my goodness they all turned out so pretty thanks for sharing 👍❤️

@DarkbutNotsinister Год назад

I’ve been spending A LOT of time with Steve. WD-40 is one of my favorite things to use for EVERYTHING. Totally going to use it in my resin!

@robinsnestartistry.812 Год назад

Love this technique. I never thought about using WD-40. They are gorgeous.

@looseskullsscrafts Год назад

Interesting effects of the WD40, beautiful creations!

@fairyspunfibers9098 Год назад

Beautiful, Steve! I noticed the colors didn't totally merge with each other, so maybe the WD40 kept them nicely separated? Love the cell effects in the gold! 💕👍😊

@beverlyangry4767 Год назад

Steve, does your brain ever rest? I bet you think of ideas in your sleep. I can "feel" how much you enjoy crafting, and your energy is contagious. Thankx for so many fun-filled ideas.

@joannmcneil3107 Год назад

One word to describe your products Genius

they'd look great with a black background.

@DianasCraftyCastle Год назад

So pretty! Thanks for the tip. 😁

@adaperez4770 Год назад

So cool. I need to try this. I have so many items that you show us. Thanks for sharing

@LisaVornhagen Год назад

That is really cool! I'll have to remember that!

@bschupbach Год назад

I was wondering what kind of red you were using? It was beautiful ❤️. Thanks and I love love your channel!

@lindarandles2106 Год назад

Thanks!

@patriciajackson3883 Год назад

Beautiful earrings with that to match would be nice also

@ellenl5626 Месяц назад

I'm new to resin and have been enjoying Steve's videos so much that I've also recommended him in several of my Facebook groups. Unfortunately I received private feedback that he refuses to answer questions unless someone is a member of his private group which requires payment. Many content providers I follow also have private groups but this is something I have never heard of and was so very disappointing.

@ausfoodgarden Год назад

Wow, that's awesome. You come up with some great stuff. I hope you don't take this in a negative way, but I always think of Alan Carr, the chatty man, when I hear you speak. Nice work sir.

@diegooland1261 Год назад

I really like how those came out, i'll have to give it a try

@preppergirl2866 Год назад

Can you use silicone liquid in resin like you can do in acrylic pours?

@fairyspunfibers9098 Год назад

@Prepper Girl You can, indeed, and you will get cells. 😊 A word of caution: don't use too much! If you are making little pieces of jewelry or even coasters, put a drop of silicone onto your work mat, then dip a toothpick into it and just *touch" the resin where you want a cell. The cell GROWS, however, so it's easy to overdo it. I want to say Steve has a video on this, but...?

@kullervo. Год назад

Thanks! I enjoyed that video 👍🏻

@melitimm8781 Год назад

Fantastic!

@maeve4385 Год назад

Wonderful

@dulceteixeira9097 Год назад

Look great ❤

@AkAkAkNeil Год назад

dometastic!

@mariverhagen8082 Год назад

Very cool

@johnnyruiz5744 Год назад

hello sir thank you for this experiment with wd-40 very nice look. Now if you did not dome off those 2…what sand paper would you use to clean up the rough edges??I ask considering i do have trouble at times with scratches on my art???Any and all feedback would be a giant help??

@wafatar8677 Год назад

Hi , please could you tell me which better to use a torch or heat gun for bubbles on canvas? Thanks 🙏 ❤

@christinaperson1168 Год назад

These are truly amazing! Would you get similar results if you didn't mix/swirl them? The cell effect is, I guess, what I am asking. Your sharing is so appreciated. Thank you Steve 😊!!!

@christinaperson1168 Год назад

Also, I don't see any links to anything except the resin this time for some reason

@treehouse5577 Год назад

Do you have a video for absolute beginners. I have always wanted to have a go at resin but have no clue where to start.

@ThestuffthatSaralikes Год назад

I spent a weekend about 3 years ago “testing” EVERYTHING under my sinks and on my shelves in the garage in resin. Every chemical and cleaning agent, paint type, some spices and foods, and ANYTHING with an alcohol or an oil base. I wanted to see what happened. {I did look up reaction possibilities online} I was amazed at some of the effects and affects of household items. WD40 is one of my FAVORITES!!!

@jackieliddell8876 Год назад

When will the uv resin be for sale in the UK?

@melissad6259 Год назад

I loved this video but I can't figure out which red you used.

@callyross7873 Год назад

curious.... does the metallic gold always sink to the bottom of the resin? trying to figure out how to get the other colors to sink some too

@Sylkbuttafly Год назад

Steve there is no links for the items you used. You are so good at your arts and crafts. I try to emulate you often. Lol

@isabeldrummond2108 Год назад

Hi do you know how to make a silicone mold for cupcakes please

@aprildegele1510 Год назад

So, as in acrylic pouring, oil doesn't mix with water. The oil in the WD40 (which is silicone after all of the other stuff has off-gassed), ends up being pure silicone. Now, silicone mixes with water, but also decreases surface tension, which is why cells form in acrylic pours if it's done correctly. Otherwise, cells can be created by alcohol or even water because cell formation is about breaking surface tension in the end. The "flicking" from a stiff brush disrupts the surface tension and creates "cells". I would challenge you to try making cells by a forceful (because resin is thick) interjection of both alcohol as well as water. If you flick alcohol (91% is likely best for this) from a stiff brush just after pouring so that the surface tension of the last color poured is disrupted to make a "cell", will it work the same as in an acrylic pour? Would be very interesting to find out. Yay! Another experiment.

@MHTownsend57 Год назад

Is there a chemical that you can spray over your uncured piece that will give a nice blur effect? Like all the colors bleed together and no sharp edges, but a very blurry look.

@amydavis4945 Год назад

Steve, will the WD40 work like that with UV Resin? I almost never use long-curing resin but I'd like to get this effect.

@dfi63 Год назад

Hello from Greece. Steve your videos have been wonderful, I have learnt such a lot. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.. I'm a beginner and have so much to learn. I do need some help on an issue. My resin is never clear. it always dries with tiny little bubbles. I stir for 10 minutes, at a medium pace. I use a heat gun for the bigger bubbles. but alas when dried....full if bubbles. what am I doing wrong ? Anyone's help would be appreciatec.

@dfi63 Год назад

@@SteveMcDonaldArtsandCrafts thank you so much Steve. I'll try stir for less time. The resin i use is very thin, it's a 100:60. It cures in 24hrs. Again thank you for taking the time to answer me. 🤗🤗🤗

@tysie1186 Год назад

Wondering How would the wd40 work in uv resin.?

@combineNewcastle Год назад

Hi everyone can you do the same with bezels

@melissamcgrath7599 Год назад

Using your lighter won't make the mold & resin stick when you go to unmold it? I'm thinking a torch will make it fuse together & the lighter won't. Let me know what your thought is please
