If you're a member/patron apprentice we can also play minecraft together (or you can watch the stream), since we just opened the minecraft server! (playing tomorrow/wednesday at 18:00 CEST / 12:00 PM EST. See you!
Do you guys have an Etsy or something where we can purchase the items you make?!
I gotta say ur work are AWESOME as always watch every project of urs, say are u gonna still work on the tomb book element series?
I am glad to see the two of you are making a thing together :).
That is the most Beautiful Whimsical LANTERN NerdForge, each of the flame looks that if it's representing the elements like your spell books (Still hope to see some Spell casting pages)
Purple - Spirit - Storm
Red - Fire - Amber
Blue - Water - Ice
White - Air
Any luck finding a new Potion idea? keep up the great work. :)
Do you have a twitch
Him: Spaceship or whatever you'd like to call it
Me: d i s c o s a u s a g e

That’s such a good & bad name for it!
LED Dildo for gamer girls!

“I wanna make cool things too!”
-me every single time I watch any Nerdforge content lol
But you already do, i would love to do pottery like you
Agreed, if only I had the time, money and space to do it all *sigh * my dream home would have a room for sewing and then another room for smaller crafts and then another room with all kinds of tools for building all kinds of things
You’re both so sweet oh my god 😩
Addressable leds are cheap and so are knockoff Arduinos, learn some coding while in quarantine
I ended up with a pile of supplies and tools wondering where to start because I can't even carve straight lines lol
I need one of those, seriously
Me too
Vi la foto y lo primero que pensé fue "se parece a Bárbara" 😂
Make it
Yes!! I need one too!
Make it
Yes, I, a 60 year old geezer, let out a loud “Squeeeeeeeee!!!” every time there’s a new video.And I am not ashamed. And I am never disappointed. Love your projects, your personalities, and your artistry. Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
A 51 years-young professor and neuroscientist just as excited as you are. I love these folks! So much fun.
I love the image of a boomer going squee. I guess you can say I think you’re a...
okay boomer.
and on the exact opposite side of the spectrum, i am 14 & i do the exact same thing.
I like the fact that a “60 year old geezer” just comfortably uses “squee” because I don’t see enough of that. I only found this channel yesterday, but I’m binging pretty hard. i wanna make one of these so bad!
One of my favorite thing is when I see nice old people enjoying things that are socially unaccepted.
Such a power couple, they can basically make anything with their skills combined. We stan.
I was literally researching how to make an LED glowing lantern, and this showed up at the top of my feed.
Is that the symbol of the Nazarene I see? :D
Whistlingduckpro very perceptive! 😁
You guys are so cute and always make me feel good 😁
My favorites are the books but sometimes i watch you just to have some fun
Adam Savage does a lantern on tested if you are looking for another example.
It’s the algorithm man....
"when i'm done with my thing, i'll come to you with my thing and i can put it in your thing?"
im-
"And I wanna make cool things too"
*me, gesturing to her whole youtube channel*
"put my thing in your thing" ah yes, Family Friendly Content!
i wheezed at that part
@@kaeyasimp3918 Me too.
It gets better when he shows off what he's making
@@mattias2792 look at my next comment
When he said this part i just kinda laughed and looked at my cat who was watching with me (my only friend) and told her thats how babies are made 🤣
Some words are just fun to slip in to a conversation, whimsical is one such word lol
Also that lighting effect really put an already great project over the top
When she said the one pieces were "very flimsy" I thought to myself, "I think you mean flimsical."
@@aaronpatterson4944 YES
you know, in the last 3 days i have binge watched probably two thirds of your project and i can't get enough. I can completely forget everything else and dive into this fantasy world XD
keep it up, you two are awesome and REALLY talented!!
"I'll put my thing in your thing" got way worse when I actually SAW Hansi's thing
Martina with the difficult unboxing of the mystery material made me laugh!
Beautiful lantern! The fire effect looks great in all the colors.
Great idea and very well done!
MKahn84 how did you comment 2 days ago when this was realized today
KlinkyDinky Patreon
You are completely right, Whimsical is such a fun word! 😄
And I LOVE the paintwork you did on this! Especially the roof. 😍
I'm also willing to bet that every time you walk into the room with the lantern you just stop and stare at it for five minutes. Then forget what you went in for and leave again... 😄
me: *coding arduinos for school*
Me when will I use this?
Nerdforge:
The natural and demonic fires look so homey and like cozy, they make me want to make some herbal tea, and sit next to a fire reading the hobbit or lotr.
I love Martina’s personnality. She makes me smile, like really genuinely smile ☺️
Hey Nerdforge! Regular Worbla user here! If you heat the worbla just slightly (not enough that it's soft and floppy, but just until it's warm) it's WAY easier to cut with a box-cutter! It also helps if you sandwich craft foam between two pieces of worbla. That way it's a lot studier and holds its shape better :)
Was going to suggest this myself :)
i knew that
The music you put up for the roof assembly, really gave me Rachel Maksy vibe, while the music when you die the glass reminded me of Bernadette Banner
Ahah!! You made me laugh so much with this one! So funny!
3:02 I feel you...
Looks awesome
Martina: wobbling around with 'mystery material'
Me: WORBLAAAAAAA
Martina: It's Worbla!
This whole video was so good! It's like I was in a trance watching the process and the end result is fantastically whimsical:)
Thank you so much!
I so want to make a couple of these to hang in my bedroom!! I'm trying to make my bedroom theme a whimsical fairies and dragons.
How's it going, are u done?
My favorite discovery was when I found out that Wallmart carries solar powered garden lights for just a couple of bucks. Sometimes I can find them for a dollar. I have garden light guts hanging out all over my workspace; sitting on window sills, bookshelves, next to sculptures... just collecting dust and casting spooky light all night.
I like your lamp so much, I might just have to take your idea and put my spin on it!
Me sadly reading this knowing I don't live in the USA...
You just take the guts out and put them places? I’d like to tryyyyy
You've both inspired me to get crafty myself! I'm already carving wood out the wazoo. Now I'm getting ready to bind books! IT'S HAVOC!!! 🤣🤣🤣
holy moly, I loved the segment where you researched what the best method is to make the old glass effect you wanted. That was really smart, and the result was a perfect looking solution you didn't have to make any compromises for!
I want to order two of these lanterns to put on each side of my bed! So super whimsical...will go perfect with my dream forest themed bedroom!
This woman operates at genius level. I was directed to one of her other videos and got hooked at watching her devise unique projects out of materials that most of us would wonder at. As a former Psychologist, I'd be interested in how she'd perform on a battery of aptitude and intelligence testing.
It's just so amazing to see, how much fun you guys have with all your projects and the materials (e.g the brass plate xD). You make me laugh everytime and it is so relaxing! I love you creativity and you inspire me to be creative, too
When you talked about the concept and said fairy I immediately thought of the lantern in the thumbnail but wir little shadows of fariy. Kind of as if it was ingraved in the back of the "glass". I imagine it lokking like they are trapped to give light. Would be kind of cool.
For tiny cutting details maybe you could try exactly knives instead of box cutters! They are like smaller versions so its easier to cut finer details ! I use one all the time and they work great!! Would be useful for so many material types !
this is honestly one of my favorite channels. you're both so creative and have such cute interactions and just the whole aesthetic is fucking amazing
I doubt that many people will appreciate the effort that was put out in programming the LEDs.
OMG Thank You I needed this video. I have been looking for a cool looking Lantern for my room for ages and it never dawned on me to make one myself. I'm literally like yourself making fun, cool and crazy things for fun and because they look badass and for some reason the idea of making my own Lantern never occurred haha. Not only did you describe exactly what kind of lantern I was after, Fairy/Magical/Whimsical, but your designs were so badass and exactly the type of stuff I love. Got a new project to work on now :)......well first gotta to finish my Resident Evil Epoxy Coffee Table I making at the moment and then THE LANTERN SHALL BE MADE!!!.........again thank you and only sub'd last month but Love the Content. Keep Up The Good Work and Take Care :).
This is so gorgeous!! I love how it really sells a fantasy type setting, it looks straight out of an elven city!
His thing even looks like a THING for crying out loud.
Love the new video guys! I get silly over that ‘wobble’ sound too Martina, you’re not alone! 😂 Love the light and I’m really keen to try out that new material, it looks sensational! 🤩Tack för era toppen videos, ta hand om er där hemma i Norden.🤗😍😘
I found your channel a couple of days ago and I've been binge watching it ever since. I just wanna say you are so cute and so talented!!! Everything you do is just amazing!
I just discovered this channel and I don’t know where it’s been all my life. This is the most amazing thing ever 😭❤️
Damn this turned out so freaking cool. I love the fact you can change the "flame" color.
I absolutely love the final result! Martina, you constantly impress me with your crafting skills :D those wood shingles on the top are just amazing
4:10 YOU MAKE AMAZING, EXTRAORDINARY THINGS!!! NEVER DOUBT YOURSELF!!! 🤩✨💜
This reminds me of the Poe's lantern from legend of zelda series.
I really appreciate the ad timer thing, I think more people should do that!
" And I wanna make cool things too 😣😣"
TOO CUTEEE❤️❤️ Time stamp @ 4:10 u're welcome future self😍😜
This is epic! I almost just want to have these as my only form of lighting in my room!
Yall both look so happy here! It is really good to see you both.
❣️❣️❣️ so whimsical !
I'm going to put my thing into your thing! 😂🤣 You are both amazing!
Why am I just getting a notification for this when people are commenting from a few hours agi
Patrons and YT Members have early access :)
It's because youtube really sucks these days with the lag and stuff
Nerdforge of course they do
@@caiden7911 Well... yeah. Thats one of the rewards of being a patron. It's only a few hours, it's really not that big of a deal.
Heey, can you make the "frozen" ice chandelier like at elsa's castle😁😁😁😆
Wobble with it! Your sheer joy from wobbling that material gives me joy.
This is easily my favorite episode so far, and not just because Hansi opened the video with a thinly veiled sex joke🤣😂
Maybe I just want to believe it but it seemed to me that he didnt realise what he was saying until just before saying "into your thing". I'm sure the whole thing was scripted but I choose to believe it was an accident.
I'm still laughing at that ngl XD
I could see this becoming a new series.
me: hears the term mystery material
also me: WORBLA.
edit: spelling
Why is it Hextian on my mind?
This came out amazing!!!! I loved the fire effect and watching you do the shingles and paint it was so satisfying.
Worbla - its name is the sound it makes. Love it!
Just found your channel and I am already addicted! I just watched your wizard staff video and had to drag my wife in to watch the big reveal. "Honey, I need a workshop!"
I love how silly this Video is! You made me laugh twice
I appreciate that you spread good vibes while those hard times, thank you!
I really dig your attention to detail. I also appreciate you letting viewers know what your steps were in achieving a certain look.
just love your videos - thought you used Warbler before : ) Can you please show how we might make a cabinet similar to those Dumbledore has in his office please, it's mostly the gothic style arches I'm interested in.
Another amazing video guys love this lantern looks phenomenal love the oak with the steel bracket for it just finishes it off beautifully.
"OOOOOOO"....some one sounds like an Owl.....😊😊😊 whimsical you right it is a nice word...(playfully quaint or fanciful, especially in an appealing and amusing way).
You are so full of joy and whimsy. Your projects are an extension of you both.
Okay, her laugh at the beginning was so adorable and genuine omg my heart
Would love to see how you power this! Also curious about where you hid the Arduino + button, but maybe we’re alone in finding that stuff interesting 😅 The end result looks amazing as always
Now that you mention it we should have addressed that! Arduino inside pvc tube 😂 and power cord is going along the chain, through the wood and out at the bottom 😊
Nerdforge placing the Arduino inside the tube is really clever, you should have shown that 😉 How do you transform from 230V AC to 5V DC though? Temporary supply for the video? Wall adapter? Curious because I’d like to use those “fat” power chords you use in the chain here (normal sized when talking 230V) for permanent projects that need 5V DC :)
@@AppliedProcrastination 5v power adapter in wall with extension cord! Quite handy. bit.ly/3bMUiLG
Nerdforge awesome, thanks!
Martina :" I wanna make cool things too 🥺''
Me : *laughs in talentless*
@@johndaniels972 soon after that video I began learning pixelart and vector art, along with 3D recently and I'm pretty proud of my skills in those two first fields! Thank you John :)
So much from so little material!
Imagination enables minimal material requirement and still achieve the desired result.
Bravo!
I love all the different colors! And yes whimsical has been my favorite word since I was a kid! I've never met anyone else who loved that word like you described! Thanks for sharing your art. So beautiful!
I wish I had the skills to make something this amazing! Love you guys!!
You should have a store and make tutorials that would make us very happy! Good job Nerdforge!
I can't get enough of your videos! Amazing art and amazing personality! Your enthusiasm never seizes to make me smile!
I'm do happy the RUclips algoritme directed me to your channel! Time to binge old uploads! !! You're great!
"Put my thing into your thing". Goes on to make a 'space ship'.. Love the lantern, love the channel!
Does anyone else's respect for RUclipsr's go way up when they show how long their ads are or is it just me?? Thanks, Martina
In my experience, the best light diffusing material for projects like this is diffusing layers from broken lcd panels, usually there are several, and there are also fresnel lenses, which give a cool depth effect.
I want a brass plate for the sole purpose of making that sound
I see Nerdforge, I Like and comment first then watch the video :D
VERY cool. Love the final paint job on the roof tiles!
It's so pretty!!! It kind of reminds me of Monique's lanterns from Legend of Mana. (If you don't know already, she is a Harpy/Siren, who lives in Lumina and makes lanterns for a living. She has a suitor named Gilbert and he's a traveling minstrel centaur who likes to write poetry for her.) Anyways, point is the lantern is amazing and I love it. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I was just about to start working but-
when you get invited into a wizards tower and admire the aesthetic. when Kvothe shows off for master Kilvin. when the chandrian are in town. when the headmaster of a school of witchcraft and wizardry calmly shout at you about if you put your name in the lantern of fire!!!???
I can't believe she cut all those shapes with a box knife. That's definitely a job for an X-Acto Knife where you get so much more precision and control.
I would love to see a matching tome (book) done out of Worbla to go with the lantern! Have the seal on the cover done in a matching/synchronized LED to where if you touch a "button" on the book it activates the lantern and the center seal. You know.. for when you're in the mood for toying with your own elemental spells :)
0:38 Phrasing! 😂
3:22-3:46: Every virgin guy at his first time when he doesnt know what to do ever 😂😂😂😂
xD
Also 0:40-0:43
That turned out really nice, great job you two. I love watching your videos and I love how you show your "experiments" to get to the final result of what you're wanting.
unbelievable.....Im sitting here watching you create this and come to life and STILL cant believe how....jeeze beautiful doesnt even begin to describe....wow...just wow
next build I was thinking something from legend of Zelda so maybe the fairy in a bottle 🤷🏽 maybe
How expensive is it to start bookbinding? I love ur vids and wanted to make a small sketchbook
PandaCatPlayz for me, a book costs around NZ$10 to make. I use unscented floss for wax thread, faux leather (NZ$5 for 30cm, which is enough for three a5 books), 1 a4 sketchbook (120gsm, 60 pages, also $5), wood glue, which I already had, but regular PVA works as well, some high gsm paper for end pages, and I push pin with some scrap polystyrene underneath for a receiver. The more books I make, the cheaper it is, because paper reams are cheaper than sketchbooks, but all in all not that much compared to other things. I used Sealemon to learn kettle stitch binding, and also how to make a book press, which cost me less than NZ$20 to make. Hope this helps!
Okay this is the second time watching this vid. I love all the things you two do! I'm 51 and used to do a lot of drawing. That talent has gone rusty! I really wish I could do everything Martina does AND everything Hansi does! You guys rock!
4:24 Her face is everything lol🤣
Imagine adapting this onto a wizard's staff with the button hidden a bit so you could be so over dramatic and change the light colours to emphasise your point!
8:40 what is this outside? Sounds dangerous to me....
I'd love to see a breakdown of exactly how you did the acrylic glass panes, like how you applied the spray paint and when you applied the glue, etc.
Would you consider also sharing the pattern you made for the lantern? I LOVE lanterns, more so fantasy/gothic esc ones like the one you made! Its so fantastic.
Your guys' channel is almost dangerous to watch - I want to make at least 80% of your projects (mostly due to my ability to make said projects, and not because I don't like some). You've really inspired me to get back into arduino - haven't touched that since college and I seriously miss it. Meanwhile, my 80+ other projects that I've started/bought items for are crying in the corner at the thought of me starting something else XD Also excited to see you use worbla - i've only seen it used in doll repaints and wanted to see some other uses for it, so thank you!
Love how you made that old glass look on the acrylic! I may have to "borrow" that idea for some future project ideas :)
“… and I wanna make cool things too.” Don’t worry, you already do. Keep up the great work and creativity! :)
I love EVERYTHING about this build. This, the Staff, and the Potion are all my favourite builds you have done on this channel, it looks very WHIMSICAL. :P
Omg, LOVE THIS! I’ve been so excited to see what your next project was going to be!
