What a great looking piece. I'm not typically a 3D print fan, but you def made the right call, here. I really like your "build in chunks then bring together" method
Actually, I guess you were referring to the wood stairs. Funny, I was originally thinking of stone, not sure why I went with wood🤔. I think you're right though, stone would have looked better
To use this technique, you need to have a large soldering iron (usually used for making stained glass), then using heavy duty tin foil that has been crumpled up and then flatened out, you wrap the 6-8 inch long iron with the textured tin foil. To apply the texture, plug in the soldering iron and then just lightly roll over whatever foam you're using and the tin foil will melt the foam and leave the texture behind. Hope that helps explain this technique?
Good question... I know that the 28mm scale is very specific to D&D and other table top gaming, I just find these items on free 3D print sharing websites like Thingiverse.com and print them out. I suppose you could search the internet and see what's out there... Otherwise, I may be able to print and sell you any specific items if that's something you want to do? Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
Yeah, I know what you mean... The only way I got this to work the way I wanted was to first tape down some duct tape on the counter with the sticky side facing up, then I positioned all the cocktail sticks where I wanted them on the duct tape. After that all I had to do was use my hot glue gun to glue the "crossbars" to the gate and you're done once the glue cools down. I may have shown this in the video, although I don't recall so you may want to watch how I did that? Hope that helps...
@@mrspurplebat OK, that refreshes my memory so the answer is yes, I always use the activator when using super glue... it works really well for something like this. Good luck with your project!
Too bad most of us d9nt have 3d printers or anywhere to purchase the pieces Takes the fun out of watching knowing you can't make pe get the pieces that don't cost an arm and a leg.
Your way of working is very original and effective, congratulations!!
That stop motion in the beginning was awesome
Cool, thanks man👍

Awesome, thank you for the positive feedback! Yeah, I usually hand craft 90% of my builds so this was the exception. Thanks for watching👍
Très sympa, joli cimetière.
every time I watch you guys I get great tips - love the ducktape trick!
Cool! Yeah, that one just came to me on the fly... Love it when that happens😬
I really dig that project.
Awesome! Thanks man, really appreciate the positive feedback👍
Man that is awesome work. But i think that good of a cemetery needs stone stairs. I know, trivial stuff. Love it.
Thank you! Were you thinking of stone stairs going down into the graveyard? That would have been a nice touch

ah man that is awesome also i really liked the animation at the beginning of the video that was cool
Thank you! Yeah, I do like to include a little animation now and then when I have the time... It's fun👍
Genial el stop motion.. Lindo trabajó
Gracias!
That's awesome :D Suggestion: LEDs inside the skull for more spoopyness!
I like that idea... Some of my other builds have LED's but I agree with you, definitely, that would be cool!
It's a cool work 👍
Awesome, thank you! That was a fun build for sure
what for an iron is it where you do the texture with aluminium foil? Im german and i didnt understand it sry

@@thecraftingbrothers9448 thanks alot!
For those who do not have a 3D printer, any available sources for buying the parts?

How do you glue the cocktail sticks together? I've tried everything but they just won't glue

In your video you used superglue I believe. I tried the hot glue gun and it looks really messy. Superglue didn't hold, would activator help?
