I did an experiment to see if I could use caulking and a texture rolling pin to make cobblestone roads. I can't believe how well it works!

Jeremy out there proving to us that we need more Caulk in our lives.
Everybody could benefit from a little more caulk.
My caulk is too soft
@@pingASS_ you could ask your grandma how to harden your caulk.
Nothing fills a crack like caulk!
That's what she said
IDEA: use the textured result to wrap a large cylinder. Instant texture for a round tower.
Exactly what I have in mind, too.
Thingiverse has printable rollers. Have fun!
Great idea !
That is quite literally the reason I bought my textured rollers in the first place. But haven't been able to properly use them because of the normal limitations. It's go time
Is where my mind immediately went
For the purest unrefined joy anyone has ever seen its from 5:42. I can personally NOT get enough of it.
Yes! Love how giddy he gets with these successes!
"It's alive! IT'S ALIVE!!!"
It's not even dirty, it's just a bit milky... Said in any other context would sound dirty.
@@SCUBAguypnw Milky residue from the caulk. Say it out loud.
@Jeremy Thurman FEATURES!
For those looking for alternatives to the rubber mat, I have had great experiences with just using fabric and caulking to create game mats. Grab an old bedsheet and you're off!
I will say, I expect the rubber mat to be easier to work with. You really want to stretch the fabric out, but nails and a board or clamps and cardboard work well.
Happy crafting!
A while ago think I saw a video by someone else that used paint drop sheets which are a heavier fabric/canvas.
Do you think those 'wipe clean' large vinyl table mats that you buy off the role would work by chance?
@@Ali-cw6ui It should but could depend on the surface/caulking. But best to test before doing anything big.
I wonder if you could use Jute to add the caulk onto. It’s more ridgid than regular fabric, but still flexible. Although it might be too porous.
@@Ali-cw6ui If you get a one-sided vinyl mat, you might have better grip of the crafting materials on the fabric underside. It can also leave the vinyl side available for use if you don't go too 3-D.
The rollers' success got me thinking about doing a stone block texture, a wood texture, and speeding up my medieval house construction tenfold with premade flexible wall textures. Glad it worked out the way it did!
See I wonder how the caulk adheres to other materials. This is making me think of walls with the rollers
being easy to make and slam out a bunch of the really easily
@@DrKrakow532 Perhaps a contact cement or rubber cement would stick it to things?
That’s where my mind went as well. If it beats placing individual bricks I’m interested.
thought of that the moment the textures worked. No need to cut little bricks. You could create as many sheets as you needed cut to the exact size for the buildings in question. The glue them onto the structure and add any additional details like window frames, shingles, etc. hell, with the right roller, you could create the shingles as well and just stagger them to make a nice roof. I don't have any fantasy buildings in my terrain, but this makes it look REALLY easy to create some now.
For us Europeans, there are quite a few alternatives to Dynaflex. Try Bostik's (ex Den Braven) Hybrifix, or ClearFix, which our both hybrid products, that combine acrylic's, non acid silicone's, polyurethane's and Ms Polymer's attributes. Extremely flexible, paintable, neutral products that have also adhesive properties which will help them stick to the rubber securely. Same products are Sikaflex-111 Stick & Seal and Sikaflex-112 Crystal Clear, but knowing Sika they ought to be more expensive than the Bostik's products. Durostik has something similar, but I think they are only for the Greek market. Cheers Jeremy.
Thank muchly :) was goign to have to ask, checked the comments and boom - right here and waiting :)
And for those in the US, Alex plus is a paintable acrylic/silicone that is easy to work with and will probably do just as well.
Word of caution: Sika flex 111 stick & seal is a no go. It is far too tacky, even when using soap water. It will absolutely render any roller useless.
You brought up an idea:
Test that stuff on a foam block, to create walls for houses etc.
If the caulk works so well with the rollers, I imagine it could play nicely with stamps!
"this nonsense" is super entertaining and educational to watch!
Rockin! I despise clay, and those rollers just don't work on foam. But I have caulk for miles!
....I swear that was unintentional.
I hate working with clay too, never had a good experience.
When I was experimenting, I tried filling in some of the too dry patches that didn't take an impression in the caulk with DAS clay mixed with Mod Podge and rolling that. A bit of a pain to apply but it took the rolling well and stayed pretty flexible with the road.
@@WylochsArmory I don't believe you. :P
5:41 it makes me happy to see the excitement at this working on the first try 😄😄
Love the Street Cents reference!
awesome video! I cant believe that roller didn't stick, what a win!
This rules hard. Gives me plenty of great ideas to experiment with myself!
This absolutely INSANE! Thanks man!!
man that is cool... I hope this leads to a full project.
I personally like this experimenting process more than just "hey I made this thing heres how" it shows more of your thinking process
OUTSTANDING! Nothing more to say.
Fit for the Pit? Really digging deep into the deep lore of 90s Canada TV there! lol
Wooooow, I totally forgot this channel existed! So glad you showed up on my feed!
Welcome back!
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial thank you sir! Don't plan to lose track of your channel again my dude!
Nice! Im glad to see the suggestion worked out for you!
I immediately thought of using those strips for making round buildings/towers.
This makes me glad I work in a caulk factory
Gotta love the mixture of construction expertise and terrain building skill. This channel is one of the best resources for ingenious terrain techniques!🎉
The way he used the clamp to open the tube blew my mind the first time I saw it. Made me feel like an idiot using scissors to open the top.
I thought you were getting caulky with all these novel ideas but they're working great!
Deep Cooking Show Vibes on this one
Dayum! that worked pretty dang well!
Jeremías u are a craft oss! God... is amazing crafting 🎉🎉🎉
Finally I can use my roller, thanks. Great work!
Thanks for giving us all these Street Sense! ;)
Outstanding work once again.
Let’s see a full on game mat done with this medium! BMC this shizz!
Thanks for the fun exploration!
Fantastic use or these materials!! 🤩
In few weeks you'll see some new gaming board on internet with this idea!! 🎉
Hey Jeremy, if you want a big scale mat, maybe you could 3d print your own meter long texture roll. Maybe a modular one where you can screw a roller into another roller like a silencer. Would certainly make an interesting video.
I agree! 3d print a really long roller! Also i think you could combine techniques. Textured roller roads with sand and stones pressed into the sides like the previous flexible road video.
I tested this out with a long mouse-mat and a cheaper caulking I found in Aus and it's worked really well! Nice!
Oh man I'm SO GLAD I watched this! This is SOUCH BETTER than 3d printing bases or to dress up, say, an entire Leviathan box worth of bases!
Using dish soap in a silicone mold works well for silicone/ acrylic filler.
Silicone requires an additive to remain fluid. This additive reacts on the surface of 'cured' silicone.
Liquid soad creates a slick barrier that doesnt appear to have a reaction.
Alternately use pure acrylic in the mold.
Fit for the pit! Using some “street cents” there! 😁
Honestly man this is a great idea. I'm glad to see you're back though I was worried about you and your family cuz y'all hadn't come across my feed recently
I will have to use this technique. I'm not a tabeltop player, but I do enjoy making miniatures and I think I'll give this a shot
I use Dap Concrete Patch with texture rollers. The concrete patch comes in two varieties: The can has a gritty concrete texure and the cartridge texture is like cake frosting with no grit. They are flexible and dry very fast. You can smooth them with water when applied. I have applied the mixture to heavy watercolor paper and you end up with a thin flexible sheet of texture. If I am in a hurry, I just use a hair blow dryer and they dry in -10 minutes. Great video! I have not tried the silicone caulk so I am going to give that a try.
This is brilliant, definitely going to give it a try
I appreciate your creativity and the ideas that helps me make some for the games are family play. Thank you for what you do
PERFECT #BlackMagicCraft - I'm going to do mini bases this way. Thanks
I absolutely adore how hyped Jeremy is at ~6:00. Incredible video as always
Pour les français qui cherchent le matos, cherchez "Mastic Acrylique" ou mastic acrylique de maçonnerie, ça se trouve dans tous les magasins de bricolage.
flowerbeds and beds, it would be interesting to see what kind of grass areas are obtained from this material
Hi Jeremy…been following you for some time know….just became a subscriber. Love your vids… keep it up..cheers Philip from South Africa
Next challenge: Can you make and use rubber rocks (either the kind used on the previous playmate video or some other method), then attach said rocks to strips of the rubber mat, and then set it on end to have flexible modular cave/cliff walls?! 2-3" strip, a few well-placed boulders to brace it upright, and then various sized rocks scattered around.
Loved watching the trial and error aspect of this video. Very relatable!
I've been wanting to start making terrains for Gaslands and some cyberpunk wargaming, this is gonna be so helpful.
Dude, I wanna say, I have been following you from the beginning, and you are the absolute Goat to me. You have ups and downs like all of us, but you deliver awsome content time after time. Keep it up Jer.
Rubber baseboards are great for roads and straight rivers. Especially if you add the caulk to the top of it.
Great video!
Topic suggestion terrain ideas for stuff that could go for different scales 28, 15, 10, 6mm and so. Could use some stuff for several games. Both scifi and fantasy
It would be interesting to see how you'd try and make larger textured surfaces with the rollers
MANNNNN, LOOK AT YOU GO! :D
Thank you for sharing this!
One of your best, my dude. Well done and thanks!
It's wild how well this turned out considering how simple it was to make!
Thank you! I was thinking about trying this, so I'm glad to see it worked!
I already tried this on strips of hobby EVA sheets. Works like a charm.
Seeing Idols of torment content is great, Can't wait until everything finally drops
I just tried it today! It's an amazing technic!
Also, I tried it on an eva non-slip mat for kitchen for its thinness so I can build a road on a curved bed!
This is litteraly a new world that opens to me!
Put the caulk into the molds in thinner layers that will dry quickly and will adhere very well to each other.
Brilliant innovation! Well done!!
good to see more conten t Jeremy.
been wondering where you been. good idea keep it up
The pure excitement when the first roller worked ❤❤❤ this made me happy.
AWESOME!! Love it!😍
I really like to use the GSW Rolling Pins. Thank you for this tip.
Did you know that Jeremy is only his stage name? His real name is Macauley.
We just watched Macauley caulkin'.
I bet he was home alone while making this video.
Awesome build! Super useful!
Interesting. A most excellent option.
Game changer, great idea
Wow, really cool. Thanks
"Fit for the pit" is such a Canadian reference...I am very happy :)
The joy in 5:54 made my day. That is why I love crafting terrain.
OH! I'll bet if we mix some sand in with the caulk and then lay down the textured rolling pin on it, it would make old ruined roads. Time for me to test it out!
Great work, Jeremy! A random thought into a new technique?! You help me exercise my brain so well.
Please reply here to let us know how it went with your experiment.
@@dancoles2235It added a neat extra texture to the cobblestone but I did add some sand after rolling to get the end result I was looking for. Still, it works!
BOOM! Another great hobby tip that has us running to the shops. I hope DIY stores are giving you commission!😂
Nice to see the frostgrave battle mat mold coming out again!
Super easy! Great job!
If you can, try some textures! Try sprinkling sand, or flocking on while its wet and see how well it sticks once the caulking dries!
I did that already in a recent video 😉
That was the best 12 minutes of watching a guy rub his caulk ever.
I love the idea of using this for oddly shapes buildings and walls.
Especially since making texture roller balls is so doable thanks to 3d printing.
this is fantastic news! I have been working on this project myself and I have been psyching myself up to potentially ruin one of my rollers to try exactly this. Knowing I don't need to worry is a huge boon
(Also for any Australians out there who need a suitable material, Bunnings sell flat sheets of Neoprene in a tile that is fantastic. it also comes in thin but much longer rolls that are a great for roads/streams but come with a nylon grid embedded that makes them want to hold their curl. I am still experimenting to see if I can get those to soften with heat or pressure. They also sell a big roll you can buy by the metre but it is thicker and less flexible, and seems to hold it's curl pretty vigorously. Experimenting continues, but the neoprene seems like the winner by far)
You're knocking it out of the park with one game-changer after the other! Kudos!
Just ordered some new rollers . . . can't wait to try this!👍🦍
This series has been full of wins!
Wow. Nice and easy!
that rollout at 5:40 is my favorite. Ive done weird ideas like this and when it works and ITS SO EXCITING!!!!
Oh THATS what that dangly pokey bit is for on those caulk guns! usually I'd go find a stick or something! Learning more than I expected here!
Jeremy, how about doing a thinner layer in your silicone mold let it set up then glue a piece of the rubber floor mat on top of it then try de-molding.
Rubber shower pan liners work great as a base and you can buy them in 4 foot wide rolls. Plus you can boil it or use a hair dryer to make it work on wonky terrain.
I found the material for the sub straight in Ga. Home Depot has it back by the artificial grass and cut to fit rugs and garage floor mats.
What a pro, I only counted 3 paper towels, I caulked a sink the other day and used the whole roll, also I love the BMC hacks for making stuff keep it up !!!
Thin and thick PVA craft foam is readily available in the States and should be an adequate substrate for roads and walls.
Have to say I am a long time follower but still very new to the hobby, this is definitely the easiest way to get started with out buying all the foam and stuff. Jeramy my friend the Word legend gets thrown a lot these days but you wholeheartedly embody the word.
These are my favorite kind of videos. Quick, easy and affordable options for crafting.
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
Very cool. Thanks so much for sharing! Subscribed!
Loving your recent series of experimental techniques, and this one in particular. If that mold test in fact turns out ok, please let us know, waiting a week to cure is not a major problem for a lot of crafters.
So cool video! Thanks for doing this!!
