My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.
Ok I’m 54 years old I I’ve never knew that that hole in the caulking gun was for cutting the tip.
Thanks craftsman !!
Lol, they never really point that out when buying one! 😂
Thank You also 'Craftsman' love your humor & theatrical charm "right there-right there"... Hello to
'Craft Momma' too (name, cracks me up). 4:20 am & best way possible to chill out & learn a new trick & meet your little characters...MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY!!!
jack0cat me neither 😲
I just found your channel and subbed. Excellent Sir!!
i just found that out too. 😂
learn something new everyday 👌🏽
"Crafsmama"! lol! That's sweet! You've created a world for us all - a creative, 'safe' and happy world full of lovable characters... Not many can say that, Mr. Crafsman! Thanks and God bless!
This is an absolutely wonderful comment, my friend. I'm so appreciative of people like you checking out my little videos, and taking a moment to let me know how you feel about what I do. It means so much.
@@TheCrafsMan I'm definitely a fan of "Crafsmama" over the standard "Mrs. _______" that most channels use. Also a big fan of the puppet. Makes it feel like the puppet is really doing the whole video, which feels more fun somehow. I just imagine the puppet behind the camera, lol
Any of it food safe
@@TempvsMortis what puppet it's the craftsman
I watch these videos because Crafsman makes the wirkd a better place... but I swear I m gonna end up making a mold or something.
The little “hello” moments are always my favorite, they bring my heart the purest joy imaginable, thank you crafsman, tell crafsmama hi!!
:D I'm delighted you like those little moments! Crafsmama says hello back! Thank you for watching!
WHOA!!! I never knew that's what that hole in the handle did! nor did I know that the guide was useful for poking a hole! Crafsman, you just blew my mind! :)
:) Glad to hear it, Dave! It's one of those little things that, had I never seen it done, I still wouldn't know. I always appreciate your comments, my friend.
I didn't know the hole poker was useful as a guide
Ha! I never noticed the hole!! The poker thingy is a guide?! Who knew! (Crafman)
Me too! *mind blown* Thank you for all the methods and tip tips, Craftsman.
Me either!
I buried my dog today. Seeing a video from TheCrafsMan actually made me smile. Thank you for bringing some joy to a tough day.
:( Paul, I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. We have a few pets ourselves, and they become like family. I feel for you, my friend. Knowing I helped you smile and brought a little joy is a very, very big deal to me.
I figured out the Crafsman's true identity; he is Fred, owner of Fred's dollar store. This channel is just to drum up business and to help him move some of his overstocked cornstarch.
SNAP! I thought I had waaay more time until someone put 2 and 2 together. :/
@@TheCrafsMan That's ok Fred, your videos are great, and your store offers products at a convenient and affordable price.
If so, he's an advertising genius.
Hahahaha
This was from 10 months ago. Crafsman Fred, your stores are going out of business here in Tennessee. You must be making BIG bucks in your etsy store!
Crafsman this world and its hate and ignorance is making me so sad today. I needed your video today. Thank you for being here for us when we need you
Heather, this is so sweet of you. Thank YOU for encouraging me. I'm glad you appreciate my little videos. I wish you the best!
@@TheCrafsMan love you, crafsman ❤
What a treat on a cold, windy, Thursday night.
So glad to hear it, my friend! Stay warm! :D
I could watch you make little characters all day
Thanks, Steve! I may do another sculpting video sometime soon. Maybe after we release the Free-Range Chickenfigures. :)
@@TheCrafsMan Wooo! look forward to it :)
Yes, thank you Mr craftsman!
“And you might notice in today’s video, I’m wearing some gloves.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
❤️❤️❤️❤️
;) Thank you for watching, Daizy!
I cracked all the way up when he said that
**sigh of relief** that voice is a Mitch Hedberg sound-a-like, so refreshing to hear and from a cool character such as yourself, its a shame i havent found this place sooner
“I can’t see! What is this place?”
“This place is a MESS”
That voice, so soothing, it’s like he is talking in a low tone the keep from waking someone up. Thanks, I learned so much from this video.
I really want one of those squishy, BB-eyed, "Hel - lo" critters! Every new Crafscritter I see, I want one.
Ha! I'll keep that in mind. I'll need to figure out a way to embed the little eyes into their squishy-squish little heads better, because with this current style, they can straight pop out. Thank you for watching!
Haha...It looks Iike a "Ding Ding"! LOL! I've got a few of these stress releiving squishy Ding Dings and even bought my Gfriends at work one. Can we make a mold out of something already squishy to replicate the "Ding Ding" I already have? LOL!
I love this guy I could watch these for hours on a Saturday morning
:D Makes me very happy to read this, Nicki! Thank you for watching!
Nicki Dennis Me too. Binge watch his videos over and over.
Crafsman. My mom is dying of cancer. This has me feeing bad. But when i watch your videos, it brings a smile to my face. Thank you ever so much.
I'm so sorry to hear that. It is encouraging to know my little videos are able to make you smile during a difficult time. Prayers for peace and comfort to you and your mother.
TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin
Thank you
Today was one of the worst days I've had in a long time and hearing ur soothing voice was exactly what I needed to cheer me up! Thank u Mr. Craftsman c:
Yanz, I'm sorry you had a bad day. I do seriously hope the next ones begin to look better for you, my friend. SO glad my little video helped! This does my heart good, so thank you for taking time to tell me this.
Hope you're feeling better Yanz
Love the videos! “He comes out I can’t see what is this place?” Loved this, I actually laughed out loud. So great after a crappy day. This little guy is so cute
SO glad you liked that! Sorry you had a bad day, but I hope the next one goes better! Hey, it's FRIDAY! :D Thank you for watching!
You are SO funny!!! To anyone who's found this video, even if you couldn't care less about making molds, you will laugh out loud watching this. I'f you're having a rough day, maybe even a rough week, I highly recommend this. If you DO want to make molds, you've come to the right place. There are hilarious but brilliant tutorials to teach you how to make molds with, for example, corns starch and silicone. The commercial product for making molds on Amazon inItaly costs 40 Euros. Cornstarch and silicone might cost you 40 cents.
I subscribed.
I like to think that Crafsmama is also a puppet, just a bit sleeker and perhaps a tinge of green. Kind of like the Crafs version Frog to your Toad, as they were my favourite books as a little kid also. I'd like to see you both as the puppets sharing some cookies and looking out at the rain. Love this channel beyond words.
CrafsMan: uses hole to cut tube.
me: The time ive wasted looking for a knife why didnt anyone ever say anything.
great video thanks for the info
:) Glad you found that helpful! It's like I told someone else: I only knew about it because I saw someone else do that one time on the job-site. Otherwise, I might still not know. Thank you for watching!
Haha, I love how you personified the little figures near the end!
"I can't see...now I can see and it's a mess in here!" It's so cuuute
Hey Elaina! SO glad you enjoyed that! :D Thank you for watching!
At first I was afraid, I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never make a silicone mold. But then I spent so many nights watching your videos thinking how if he could do it so can I. And I grew strong. And I learned how to get along with my silicone!!
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MERCY, this comment got me! Thank you for this! :D
I hope you keep making your videos! They are awesome!!
Hold up boss man, the Crafsman just put out a new video. I got to watch it.
Casey!!!!! Man, always making smile over here. Hope you enjoyed this new one! :)
Very good! Always offering some handy, inexpensive & creative tips and tricks! I really enjoyed that musical intro! Thanks Crafsman! @@TheCrafsMan
I feel like craffsman has a history in props for movies.
That puppet officially made you my new favourite youtuber, your videos just make me happy
Aww, so glad! Thank you for watching!
@@TheCrafsMan Today i discovered your channel, inmediatley subscribed and have been binge watching all your videos, only disappointment is that there was no tutorial on the puppet...
Just so you know, I had a smile on my face throughout this whole video. My depression has decreased almost 100% from the moment of hello. Thank you CrafsMan.
I have seen the cornstarch and silicon method around RUclips. But seeing YOU do it finalised that it's a genuine mothod for me.
You’re like an art therapist.
Awwwwww, Jenn. Always with the encouraging-est comments. :) We hope you are doing well!
I've found myself saying "hello" to my cats like Crafsman says it. Great tutorial!!
I like this so much! :D Made me smile. THANK YOU!
I know this is an old video, but the little Crafsman Show jingle made me squeal in joy.
Crafsman, I do children's crafts in libraries, and you can do something very similar to this for a kids' science activity! Cornstarch + cheap hair conditioner + food coloring = something that feels very similar to Play-Doh. You don't even need exact ratios, you can just let the kids experiment in a big bowl until it feels right. I think it's really cool that your putty technique works almost the same! Thanks for the great videos as always - I know this is an old one, I'm going back through the archives :)
Wow, these methods must be a lot cheaper than Easy Mold.
It really is. That 1/2 LB of EasyMold was $20. NOW, I'm a big fan of that stuff! BUT, if you're doing a lot of molds... it's just more economical (and cheaper! ;) ) to go with this DIY method. Thank you for watching!
Easy Mold actually works though. Try this method once and you'll see that not only does it give terrible results, the experience is absolutely miserable. It's like a bad crafts meme that won't die. Crafsman gets a -1 for spreading this herpes idea.
@Leigh Barry thank you
My mind was blown too, with the hole in the caulking gun! Hubby has been in construction since before we’ve been married (almost 30 years ago, high school sweethearts lol). I immediately ran to him to see if he knew about it....sadly he did lol!!
Always enjoy your videos! TFS ~Linda :)
I told someone earlier, had I not seen that myself, I still would be pulling out my pocketknife to cut the caulking tube. :) Thank you for watching!
I had to pause and go into the basement and look at the caulking gun.....what......
Your voice is a stress reliever! My heart rate went from 90 to 72 in 8.3 seconds. If I'm about to have an anxiety attack, I'll just come back here and watch your videos. So therapeutic ☺
Dude, you have that smooth calm voice like Bob Ross. I love it and your DIY
Crafsman upgrading that intro with some music. A+
Hahaha! Thank you!
Hurray! I can't tell you how much I enjoy your channel CrafsMan - each video is so beautifully produced from top to bottom, heartwarming, informative, and laugh out loud funny. A real joy to watch.
Rupert, I appreciate you. Great comment - super encouraging to me. Thank you for watching! :D
Crafsman- I could write a novel about all the ways your videos are so wonderful. But it always comes back to this...you make me happy. Thanks for being the bright light that you are!
Mercy. What a sweet, sweet comment. Thank you, Leslie!
I saw this video last night but I refused to watch it - had to save it for my morning coffee. :) CrafsMan makes coffee taste better.
Snap! I like it! :D Thank you for watching!
That was a lot of fun Crafsman. When I saw you had a new video, I couldn’t wait to watch. Great mold making tips. I used to use a couple of these techniques to make small parts for ventriloquist figures I made. Eyes, eyebrows, mouth blocks and components. Really great tips Crafsman. And as always, FUN! Thanks so much. Can’t wait for the next one. Steady Craftin’. :-)
So glad you liked this! And I heard from someone else who makes ventriloquist dummies using this method. Very interesting to me, because I always picture them being out of plastic or wood. But this makes sense!
CrafsMan uploaded somethin' 30 minutes ago? Oh, you KNOW that's getting a watch from me right now.
:D Yessssss! And THANK YOU for keepin' on watching my videos!
Oh Crafsman you do make me smile so... You're videos are pure joy. Please don't ever stop... People like you make the world a better place. Love from Scotland 🏴 ♥
Best videos on youtube! Craftsman is my favorite youtuber to watch to relax and feel creative!
Glad to hear that, Mike! Thanks so much!
Each CrafsMan video is a happy blessing.
Super kind of you. SO glad you like what I do!
Crafsman you definitely entertain,educate and inspire, keep on keepin' crafty. One part Mr. Wizard, one part Mitch Hedberg and a whole lot of Honey...Do you like Honey?
LOL! You got me with that last line! And such a nice compliment - thank you!
Hey crafsman, thanks ! you can do the same without corn starch, only with soap and water.
But it requires to put your bare hands into water and soap first.
Gloves even if you soap them will quickly stick to silicon
The soap method gives more precise molds than starch.
Oh you are just a breath of fresh air Crafsman!!!!💖💖
Hello, my friend! Always nice to hear from you! You know I appreciate your super kind, encouraging words.
Crafsman, you done gone and inspired me to make my own figure and cast copies to paint in my friend's and family's favorite colors as Christmas gifts. Thank you Crafsman ^_^.
I LIKE THAT! So happy when I hear things like this. :D Thank you for watching!
Sweet talkin, squishy moldin, making things Crafsman. Happy November Sir!
Haha! Thanks, Michael! :D
I could listen to your voice all day! Love this method-I’m trying it today! Thanks Craft Man! 😎
I could listen to Crafman all day.
You made my day.
So glad to hear that! Thank you for watching!
Crafstman has action figures? I need one!
IKR?
I may have to release a second handful of those Tim and Agua figures I made before, after the Free-Range Chickens are done. :) Thank you for the interest!
CrafsmMan is why I got back into non-digital art. ^^
First, Crafsman voice is so relaxing. I love it. Second, this is fantastic. Low budget experimentation that we can easily do ourselves. No $50 brush required.
Hey, Harley! :D Thank you so much for the kind words! Happy you enjoyed this, and hope you have fun with your experimentations! :)
@@TheCrafsMan Thank YOU for trying stuff I woulda never thought of! I found you with your wood transferring video and I've been in love since, man! Keep doing you!
CrafsMama??? Dude, love it! Are there any CrafsKids? Your videos are always useful and just good viewing period! I will probably never do this mold making but I love watching it 😁
Thank you so much, Laura! We do have three Crafskids. :D LOL! So glad you enjoy what I do.
Crafage Patch Kids
I love the way you show and explain how to... you are awesome!! Keep the vids coming
So glad you like what I do! Thank you for watching!
This is a great channel to watch while eating Gyros. Because you not only get to eat a tasty greek dish, but you also get to listen to TheCrafsMan soothing voice.
Crafsman is the Bob Ross of crafting.
Super nice of you! Thank you for watching!
I love this channel!!! Thank you sir!
You're very welcome! I'm so glad you like it. Thank you for watching!
I love this so much, you are magic
So glad! You are too kind!
this makes me want to do crafts again! i love the little characters at the end heehee, "hello"
Mr. CrafsMan, I could listen to your voice all day long.....
A great way to end my evening, thanks CrafsMan! I've never made anything from molds except for some candies long ago with my grandmom. I had no idea you could use silicone caulk like that, and I love the squishy at the end. Thanks for sharing your work!
Hello, my friend! Happy you enjoyed this one. And it's a big deal for me to use this method, because it does end up saving a lot of money vs. store-bought specialty mold putty. :D Thank you for watching!
The Crafts Whisperer
:D Snap! I actually like that name!!!!! Thank you for watching!
the last part with the squishies were precious! "I can't see...this place is a mess... hello" too cute!
I heard a song the other day that made your channel come to mind! The song was 'Alligator Stroll' performed by Josh Turner. Cute song...it sums up how I feel when I watch your videos... Strolling along and laughing with a trusted friend, as he talks about all the cool stuff he loves, and is making! You and your CrafsMama are national treasures! I can no longer resist subscribing!
We appreciate you so much, Kay! :D You know I'm gonna have to look up that song now. Y'all give me so many interesting things to check out. :D
I know I'll like this but I have to sleep now - but first thing in the morning - I'll be back!
Get you some rest! I'll leave the video up all night and on into the next day. :)
Didn't sleep too well, maybe over excited! ;) Just watched twice in coffee break (extended) Loved it. Can't wait to get some sillicone, and see if my caulk gun is as good as yours. Thank you. @@TheCrafsMan
I have to ask: Where did you learn all of this?? You're a walking encyclopedia of craftin. I know your grandmother influenced you, but the rest?
Hey Patrick! Mannn, thank you for watching! I'm blessed to have had a lot of different people to learn from over the years. My grandparents (on both sides) were into either metalworking or woodworking. My dad and mom were into a variety of things. I had uncles who taught me a lot (one of them may have been more on the illegal side - LOL), and I've had a few different manual labor type jobs where I learned a variety of skills. I appreciate your question!
He trawls other youtube channels for ideas. This is a combination of a Timber Ridge Gifts video and Epbot video, but with better production values. His Free-Range Chicken toymaking is a straight ripoff of Steve Ferrera's channel.
I could not love The CrafsMan more!
Aww, thank you!
This is the most wholesome content on RUclips. As a crafter myself the videos are fun and I learn something new with every video. New materials to use, new teaching to utilize. When I watch these late at night I feel very relaxed. Keep on crafting! Keep on making a wonderful difference in people’s lives. ❤️
CrafsMan, are you going to start selling Tim, or any of your other figures again on your etsy shop? Love your stuff, can't wait for free range chicken to become available.
Please, I'd love a little Tim to put on my desk at work(to go with the free range chicken)!
Ooh me too!
Thanks for asking! The Free-Range Chickens go for sale on November 7th. I'm hoping to also have enough resin to make a small handful of Tims, and maybe some Aguas. :D
@@TheCrafsMan My dad is a forester and I would love to get him a Tim! I could never make one myself as I am crafs-averse. I really love what you do! Thanks for all the sublime content.
I enjoyed that so much! 😂😂😂
So glad, Ms. Cassandra! Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for showing us everything we would be fumbling with to learn on our own - if not for you and your videos. You saved me so much time and frustration - and listening to you speak through every video is soothing, comforting, and lifts my spirits. Much better than any psych med I used to take. Yep. TheCrafsMan is everyone's answer to depression, anxiety, and boredom. Love you brother.
greetings from southwest england crafsman
this is without a doubt my new favorite channel
your calm demeanor and dry humor makes me all fuzzy and warm its like being stoned without having to smoke anything and thats gotta be a good thing
Hello there! Thank you SO MUCH for the very kind comment! Glad you found my channel, and very happy you like it! :D
They look like lil Craftsman baby’s lol 🤣
HAHAHA! :D Thank you for watching, my friend the Czech M888888!
When i saw this i thought about ordering putty
You may want to give it a shot. I notice even with the EasyMold putty (which I really like, but which is very pricey), I only have a matter of minutes to use it. It's well-suited for small objects like jewelry and maybe individual parts of a figure, etc. But I'll for sure be doing more DIY putty molds in the future. Thank you for watching!
Rolf . You remind me of mister Rogares. The soothing voice 💚🤣
I had no idea, there was a tube cutter built into a caulking gun , ya always showing me something crafsman
Hello crafts man how you doing ?
Hello! Doing really well, my friend. Just busy busy! :)
I 🧡 it!
How can people dislike Mr CrafsMan?!
I'm gonna try this. Your video was very enjoyable. Straight to the point but you still managed to make it whimsical and fun to watch. Great job!
Hahahaha "you might notice in today's video, I'm wearing some gloves" you are hilarious my man.
I reckon you could make some little boys and girls happy by reading stories or telling stories using the puppet. My 2yr old loves Mr CrafsMan!
Ha! Glad you liked that! ;) And it warms my heart to know your 2yr old enjoys my videos! :D I do the "Crafsman Reads" videos once in a while, but have been slowly chiseling away at my own little stories, to do animations of down the road. :) Thank you for watching!
I am looking forward to those stories and animations :)
Yes Ive watched the "CrafsMan Reads" videos! I enjoyed those too! If you included your Mr CrafsMan pupet in them is what I was meaning. Still, I look forward to all your videos! Keep on steady craftin! :D
I loved the musical intro :)
That’s a great idea!
Craftsman could easily make ASMR if he wanted, cuz this video is relaxing with his gentle voice 😍😴
Thanks, my friend! I've thought about doing a strictly ASMR video, but just don't know what I'd say. :D LOL!
@@TheCrafsMan You're a natural! Just talk like you normally do for your videos. You know, I bet you could get away with labeling your videos as ASMR craft tutorials :D
Hey you freak, I’ve watched 10 silicon videos before arriving here. While the others are fine yours is the most entertaining and worth subbing. Thanks for the lesson!
Crafsman, PLEASE PLEASE read us more stories!! I really enjoyed the ones about Frog and Toad. Please read us some longer stories next time. PRETTY PLEASE!! With honey on top because I know how much the CrafsMan loves honey.
Another video worth its weight in gold
I’ve been looking everywhere for an easier way to make molds instead of constantly buying pricey silicone molds from the craft store
This is such a good method I can’t wait to try it out !
I could watch you all day every day. Thanks for your stuff. Dig it.
Snap! Thank you, but you'd get wore slap out hearing me say words wrong and such like that. LOL! Thank you for watching!
I’m so stoked I just watched a video made by a puppet
This was the most calming thing in the world
love the theme song, crafsman
Trying to get fancy up in here, David! Hope you're doing well. Making any interesting sets or props lately?
@@TheCrafsMan That's my kind of fancy, Crafsman especially nice to see your hands on the keyboard. We're staying busy, too. Doin' some special effects stuff this month. Makin' fire on water.
You, sir, are one of the greatest creators to share their makings and I thank you.
Never been a big fan of Circus Peanuts, but that little dude at the end was pretty cute.
New sub! You sound like my grandfather and you are so funny. You are also easy to follow and learn from. I have been watching your videos all day! Let's steady craft craft man. I'm wit cha.
I’ve seen a lot of different methods on mold making with silicone and I must say this video is the best I’ve seen yet. Thank you so much for all the info. 💕
If you labeled this as ASMR you would def get some attention. Thank you for the tricks and lessons ! Much respect G!
"You might notice in today's video I'm wearing some gloves". Don't ever change Crafsman!
Haha! Hey, buddy! I'm too old to be changing now. ;)
@@TheCrafsMan That's what I like to hear buddy!
