I'm really enjoying you having Nicole on more. Y'all are so cute together!
Well I couldn't choose a favorite. They were all great and very beautiful. I just love how Nicole and you work together on the projects and you calling her "Doll" is so fantastic and it shows how much you mean to each other.. the spheres are very creative and gorgeous. Can't wait to see the next projects. Happy days!😂❤😅😊
Thankyou 😊
Great video. You're a really fun couple. I couldn't choose a favourite they're all awesome.
Little Luna is so adorable ❤
Thankyou
I would like to see you make the Arkenstone gem from the Hobbit. Seems like the dichroic film would would be perfect for this. Since the book describes its as a gem of a thousand facets that shown with its own inner light Maybe some kind of LED light molded inside? With your artistic genius I’d love to see what you could come up with.
Amazing as always! Wonder what would happen if you put that paper through a paper shredder and then packed it in a ball with resin, the shredded particles might look like opal.
„This is the one I used to make the universe.“
Ben our Lord and Saviour 😄
Nice work, as always!
I like the idea so much... but the "faulty" one is the best. Looks bloody amazing mate. Its nice to see your boss involved too!
WOW! On that 3rd one...with the crack in it .. what a HAPPY ACCIDENT! Im in live with that piece! 😍❤️🔥
We called those paper springs. They're great for pop-up books & cards. Smallest was my favorite, then the largest. They're all beautiful, but the small one has great personality with that bubble, and the large one I like the clarity. I think I would have preferred the middle more if it wasn't quite so busy.
Hi Ben,
Haven't watched the whole video yet. But hoping the fact that you're posting means that you and your family are all safe from the wild weather hitting QLD recently.
Man those sold fast!! They were beautiful! Definitely the small one in my opinion! Good job Ben and Nicole
Thanks Josh, We really appreciate it 😊
That big one could be a good topper for a wizard's staff.
Ermagawd A CUTE PUPPY
My favorite was the one with a crater and canyons. Looks like a futuristic planet.
Honestly the one with the big crack in it was my favorite! Kinda like a huge canyon on some distant moon. A very shiny moon.
The small one has to be my favorite. Definitely the underdog but it didn't disappoint.
It would be so hard to choose a favourite, they really do all look so good on the lights.
I really like your wife joining you. You are such an artist and all your work is lovely.
Thanks Kay, we really appreciate your support 😊
I like the brightness of the small one but the look of the medium one.
The "Happy Accident" geode is my favorite too!!!❤
I like the first one. It reminds of a strand of DNA. And the smallest one looks like ice crystals on a car window. Beautiful work❤️🇨🇦
They're all gorgeous, but i think the big one is my favorite 😍 I like the magnification and glass effect it has
These turned out amazing! I think I like the middle one best, but they are all stunning. Love to Luna, from the US. She's a sweetie 💓
These are all beautiful ❤️ And a big hello to Luna, glad she was able to be part of the show today.
I am surprised that you didn't put them in the degassing chamber.
A suggestion for the big one if you make another for the show (I hope you do). Since the mold gives you a natural "pole", get a long wood staff, drill a hole on one end, run a small light in the staff with a push button on/off switch and add the sphere on top to make like a wizard type staff.
Ben, you two and your work inspired me to save up for months and now I have my own professional pressure pot and 1/2 horsepower air compressor. I just received the compressor this morning and my first test piece is sitting in there under 25 PSI.
I think the largest is my favorite as it seems to have more personality especially when it’s turning. I am anxious to try one of my own.
Yeah the larger one looked awesome with the magnification, Don't be scared to try it, it was really easy 😊
Wow!💥 They turned out absolutely BEAUTIFUL!❤ Great job! I love these! I would definitely want one in every room of my home! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work!💥❤🙏
I agree that the middle one is my fave. If the big one had more chains it would've won.
The smallest one is definitely my favorite! But all three are gorgeous
They remind me of the ball that drops on New Year's Eve here in New York City.
P.S.: You guys are just too cute together. ♥
These would be cool put and shaped like a diamond or cyristal.
I love the banter in these Ben and Nicole videos. It's lovely to see you share creative ideas and experiment with them. Thank you :)
I could see the different colors of the films. I once made a garland for a paper trimmed Christmas tree out of old school printer paper edges, and it was great.
Wow!! These were all absolutely stunning. I loved each one in their own right. 👍👍❤️
Hi Ben and Nicole. Luna is cute. I love the three of them. Take care.
Love this project. Would like to see you do a bigger ball or even a football sized one.
I just have to get the resin and start making some things. Glad I looked at your RUclips.
I love the smallest one. It looks like an ice crystal!
They are all so cool, but I actually really like the big one.
A few years ago I did this with tiny spheres to make crystal ball necklaces. They were so cool. It’s great to see what bigger ones look like ❤️
I think that fold technique would look really cool as DNA strands. I like the big one.
I am with Nicole on this one I can't choose.
I liked the geode one, even before you polished it. Like a dull stone with shiny precious stones twinkling here and there. Loved the uneven finish, glad you didn't try to sand it down. Sometimes imperfections make a thing even more attractive.
Great job. Fun to have both of you to bounce ideas off of.
I prefer the smaller one.
Make another small one an put it in a clear cube, great video as always 👍
Wow wow wow!! I can't pick a favorite either. They are all stunning and beautimous!!
Those balls are amazing! I can't even pick a favorite!
Also, Luna kinda looks like the dog that my mom's friend has.
The aone where the air got trapped - I kind like it, looks like a feature - like you said, a bit like a geode. I like the matt vs the shiny when you demoulded it. Those are all totally stunning. I will be doing something similar with chunky holographic tinsel soon
That's my favorite as well. It looks like you made a geode design on purpose. The dull surface on the rest of the ball makes the geode stand out better! 😊
I'm having a hard time deciding between the biggest and the smallest which one is my favorite. Awesome job!
These are cool! The one from the ice-ball looks like a crater on the moon
Hello, Luna! You're such a a beautiful doggy!! A great help, also, I imagine. Wow! The sphere's are just so beautiful!! I'm having a hard time choosing between the large and middle one as my favorite. I my opinion, there are too many in the small sphere. Overall, great video and awesome work!! ☺️💜
Thanks Mel, we really appreciate it 😊
They are all beautiful but I like the small one the best👍🏻❤️
Very nice. The ice mold one with the flat bottom would make a good paperweight conversation piece on someone’s desk. They are all great. I do like the magnification effect though.
I really REALLY like the small one !
My favorite would have been the big one but I think it looked better with the shaft on it, kind of like a handle or something. Or you could use the shaft to stick it in your lawn or garden, that would be pretty cool if you get some lights on it at night.
Should get one those character ice trays for moulds
Perfect for bed post lawn ornaments. I would keep that stem on that. It is absolutely perfect and versatile for everything that I can think of definitely make more of those.❤❤❤❤❤
Could you take the long pieces and run them along the edge of your scissors and curl them? How about cutting it like confetti? I kinda like them all. You guys rock!
Thankyou, yeah that would be cool
One thing to try next time would be to glue/UV resin some crystals to the 'cracked' area to really enhance the geode look. Then another coat of resin or UV to restore the shine. Love your channel. Keep p the great work!!
Wow they look good being lit up!
Thanks Mate
Love seeing you both in these videos xxx
These all came out great. Also in my opinion there's nothing wrong with Dad jokes. 🙂👍
Thanks Mate, me too! 😂😊
Ben all of your projects are awesome to watch
They’re incredible. Love the look of them.
I have some of that film and it's super colorful in person. It's crazy how gray it is on camera.
You should re-cast the small one with a colorful resin! So it fills in the gaps.
Very cool. Luna was the star of the show, even though having your wife always makes things a bit more special. Well done guys!
Think the trapped air makes it look cool, nice effect.
They are all gorgeous! And your puppy 😍🥰
I like the large one for sure. Thanks Tim
Absolutely love this, most definitely a next project with a silicone skull. My favorite channel 🤗❤
Thanks Dee! we really appreciate it 😊
I enjoyed this video. Nice and calm for first thing in the morning for me.
Y'all are adorable. I love how you use reckon, as it's used commonly here in the American south.
I also love using iridescent/dichroic cellophane. I get many facets by crunching up and flattening out the material. The wrinkles create many facets.
They all look great but my favourite is the medium one. It has the most film effect! Thank you!
Geode I think was my favorite, but all of them were awesome!
7:36 use those for coasters I think that would be beautiful.
They are all absolutely stunning!!!!
It's a really tough choice. They all came out so unique and so beautiful and look fantastic as a set, but I have to say the small one is the winner. It has the most color and character. Wonder if the same thing would happen if you tried using the ice mold again? Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I'd be curious to see what one of these would look like if you finely chopped the film down into like large glitter and then mixed it entirely with the resin before you poured it in. That could be a really neat and more uniform effect!
They looked stunning. How about putting some of the dichroic plastic film through a cheap paper shredder and a good cross cut paper shredder as well to add a different effect. Keep up the great content Mr&Mrs Worx.
I love watching you two together, and I am hoping you make more of these for your store, because I missed out, lol. Have an awesome weekend :)
Thanks Lisa, We really appreciate it! yeah I think we will make more 😊
Small one is my favorite but they are all awesome
Totally awesome
These are amazing.
Wow very nice y'all . I'm astonished with the third one so cool . 👍👏
Fun fact flipping a coin is actually a 51 49 odds. 51% of the time it lands on the side that it is facing before its flipped. (Look at the way he had it when he flipped it tails up before and after)
Awe Luna ❤ so cute 😍
Love seeing you both working together!
The one with the bubble is my favourite. It looks like shattered glass, and that fissure adds to the effect!
I love them all and can't pick just one.
Good idea to put the folded "snakes" in resin! I sometimes make them out of scrap paper for my cats. They love them!
Very pretty. The end results makes me think about crystal balls that physics use. That big mold looks like a lollipop.
When the big one still had the resin shaft attached, it looked like something that should fit in the top of a wizard’s staff
I love them all. They look so magical. 😍
Those really did come out quite awesome. 👍👍👍
Absolutely gorgeous.💜
All three are beautiful.
That smallest one i was thinking could be fun if t'were possible to make the outside look black and rock like. So it really did look geode.
It's like each one kept getting better. I love them all
GUESS what I'm making tonight?!!
I love using this film with resin. Made a seahorse sparkle wildly!
