  • Today I make a Harry Potter universe style wand! I've been learning how to make wands from real wood, so join me and I'll show you how I made this one.
    I have wands that I have made over on my Etsy store, it's a great way to support me and the channel....and own a cool prop of course! I hope to be making regularly so don't worry if there are no wands at present!

    I started watching this and thought "any moment now, out will come the lathe and specialist tools", but no! Everything you used, and everything you did, is accessible to anyone, which is a solid 10/10 in my book. Excellent work.

      Thank you, and yes! A few bench tools like the sander, but other than that!

    Please do another video making one. I would love to see you go even more in depth on your process of making the wand and I would really like to see what else you come up with. This is one of the coolest wands I’ve seen

    This is so incredible! The amount of work/effort that was put into this make 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 this person must be very special and they better love it or I'll happily take it off their hands 😁.. The forethought regarding the personalised touches showed real care and attention to detail. Expert workmanship from a keen maker indeed.

    I love how you’re open with the materials to use where as other makers won’t tell you what the materials are for the brass/ alluminum accents. They withhold that info as if it’s a “secret” lmao.

    You could perhaps make little resin pieces to use like you have for the triangles, that way you can make a nice pattern in it and it could sand easier?

    I have just come across your channel and as a fellow brit it's nice to see a fellow kin making such quality props in this area of making.
    I love moddeling, prop making and character statue making and although I love alot of the American makers like Adam savage, it's nice to see a brit make the same level of quality stuff and be interested in this field as I dont see many brittish makers on youtube making this kind of stuff at this level. So I've subscribed,keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to seeing what you cook up in the future.

    • @BucketheadStudios

    You can just imagine asking olivander when purchasing a wand what's the wand's core and him saying " it's a special aloy called a metal rod " you'd be confused as hell or think he had to much as rosemerta's pub.

    6:14 I am not saying you're not skilled, but please use gloves. I am getting really nervous watching you, and (not saying it will,) if an accident happens, and you slip, gloves would be very nice to have. remember, I am not saying against your skill, or saying that you aren't good enough to go without them, but just giving you a friendly reminder to wear gloves.
