Do this with a semi-truck. Make it look like it's flying through space. Use a purple resin. Then you've got yourself a pretty sweet Deep Purple "Space Trucking" diorama. 😄
you know what would be kind of cool if you could use that type of explosions from those rods as explosions from something else just make like a bunch of small little rods and then place them all around so when they do explode it will look Epic
I'd leave a funny comment but... this seriously turned out even better than the first "accident". If you were to do another one like this I'd suggest trying to put a small piece of metal inside the rod that melted - that's just about the spot where the warp reactor core would be ejected, and it would look like the ship was in the midst of a reactor core breach. This really is a beautiful piece of work, well done mate.
Out of all the builders I watch on RUclips, you and Nick Zammeti are definitely my favorites. My first theory was that the heat from the resin was heating up the metal of the Enterprise and affecting the curing process. The effect works, though... kind of like entering a wormhole or something. Great work, keep it up Ben!
Looks amazing. Now that you have worked out that it's the previously cured resin giving away in heat, it would be great to see loads of resin orbs or rods of different colours arranged on Burl, then make another casting. The results could be awesome 👍👍👍
The original star trek ship is the first video i saw on your channel, And It been great seeing all of your work since! Keep it up! Thank you for the Videos!
I have watched a couple of your videos now, and they have given me some really neat ideas, as I live in Arizona, people, and visitors love things with scorpions and tarantulas in them. Going to try the bottle with creatures in them. People around here are always buying paperweights with all manner of things in them. Thanks.
I'm really glad I found your site, I think the 'mistake' is awesome 👌 I'm glad you keep the errors in your videos... like the resin release. You're a regular guy... thanks
I think it's beautiful. You are a real craftsman, I wish I could make stuff like that. But I'm all thumbs and I don't know how to work with tools. I really like your videos.
YES! The 1st enterprise in a bottle video is the 1st video I saw of yours and got me to sub! Was such and awesome video imo and I’m glad you did a 2nd video! Keep up the great vids!
I don't know if you have ever seen Space Balls, but in there, they hit ludicrous speed and went plaid, this Enterprise almost went plaid. :) It looks great!
If you are ever worried that you may have trapped air in an object that is to go in resin, coat the object in resin and let it dry prior to immersing it in resin. Nice work, loved the color.
Wow that bad boy is awesome....I would think to any star trek fan out there would love to add that to their collection I know my brother would he is really into to it...I will say this friend you are very good at what you do lol
Amazing! I'm definitely watching on ebay. I'm working on set up a spot for my star trek collectibles right now. It's almost mind-blowing that I sat down to take a break and this video was in my notifications lol.
Ben you're killin' me! I thought it would come out perfect. That being said, it's unbelievably cool looking. It looks like it's from another galaxy or time. Wait a minute, it is! Thanks for sticking with Star Trek!! That would be interesting to make a mold that size again, and put a bunch of small random size resin pieces in it. Perhaps color some of them too, and see what the heat does to them. I see a Christmas ornament or something. Take care!! Ellis
Mr. Ben Worx, your skill is super wild and very creative!!! Could you please consider doing a nightmare before Christmas theme or a grave yard scene..? Keep up the awesome worx!!!!! Thanks from Toronto Canada!!
You should try this again with no ship and a few rods to see if you can create a lot of these "explosions" in a project. If you use a reflective piece of burl to create more colors.
Just thinking... if it would be possible to put some paints inside the ship, before casting it, maybe that blast/ripple effect could gain some color. Something ike a ribbon in "Generations"....
I would like to see you do something with bears. Maybe polor bears. I love bears and collect different things that has bear on and/or in them. I just thought polor bears would look pretty cool. Something I would buy as long as it wasn't expensive cause all I get is a once a month disability income (since I'm disabled and have to use a walker whenever I'm walking). Think about it and let me know what ya think.
Not sure what took me so long to get here.. Pre warp civilization might of been it. But, finally made it and you certainly have a new sub my friend. 👍🏼
I remember the Star Trek video because it is the first video I watched of yours and it made me subscribe, and you have only gotten better since then. Keep it up bro
Phenomenal as always Ben! Waiting on my first purchase from your Etsy store, two dragon eggs, can’t wait to own some of your beautiful work! Stay safe and never stop making sir.
I know it’s 3 months late but I started to work in resin and I put my prom flower in it and I had that flower for 6 years and it was dryed out so I risked it and it worked out but I had some problems with air bubbles but omg it came out amazing so I love when something goes wrong but make it look even cooler
Not a bad idea but fibers come off the bud, when using UV resin to paint, the brush is saved as it doesn’t cure until uv light hits it so you can wipe it off and use it again
Consider making a riser rod out of something truly melty, like paraffin or crayon. Try different shapes, bulging at the base and thin at the top or vice versa. Curved risers and zig zag risers. I think you hit upon something that could be an entirely new creative expression!

OOH imagine the Obi-Wan-Jango chase scene, with a suspended bit of rod used to recreate the concussion mine effect!
With different colored rods!

Lmao. “Guess who forgot to add mold release?” So perfect.
Who has two thumbs and a hammer?
I collect vintage 80s toys. And this is an amazing idea for some of them!
You used the damaged ship with the fire coming out, it fits real well with the explosion type deal.
Out of all the builders I watch on RUclips, you and Nick Zammeti are definitely my favorites. My first theory was that the heat from the resin was heating up the metal of the Enterprise and affecting the curing process. The effect works, though... kind of like entering a wormhole or something. Great work, keep it up Ben!
Thanks Mate 👍
I just saw this video and wanted to see how much it went for but was too late. It is an amazing art piece 👍🏼
Really cool work. I'm a dragon fan. Would love to see a small dragon inside a bottle like it is a pet.
Thanks Mate, cool idea
I'm a HUGE Star Trek Fan! And I LOVE Them both!!!
That color the base was painted in was the best one I've ever seen used by this channel. What an awesome effect!
I love the seal on his workbench.
That's an amazing discovery, mate! I wonder what other crazy designs can be made with resin inside resin. Great work!
Thanks Mate
The damaged Enterprise ship in the bottle looks good 👍😊
Looks amazing. Now that you have worked out that it's the previously cured resin giving away in heat, it would be great to see loads of resin orbs or rods of different colours arranged on Burl, then make another casting. The results could be awesome 👍👍👍
Thanks Mate, Yeah I’m already working on it ;)
Hi Ben. I'm not a startrek fan but that piece is stunning. Love the two tone colours on the burl and your selection was spot on. Very well done Ben.
Thanks Terry
I watched both, they are great. I like the comments while you're making the second video. I don't feel as lost. Thanks
WOW!!! Amazing job. I think those Star Trek ships will be a must-have. If I were you, I keep making them in different styles.
Thanks Mate
The original star trek ship is the first video i saw on your channel, And It been great seeing all of your work since! Keep it up! Thank you for the Videos!
Thanks Mate 👍

Wow thats awesome Ben, loved watching it 👌 Glad to hear you back to your old self 🤗
Thanks Mand 👍
Great work Ben!! The 'failure' turned out great!!
The only comment I have Ben is that it's another great one. Stay safe and well. Bill
Thanks Bill, you too
Your videos are so relaxing and for some reason help me fall asleep. I'll watch a video and then already be dozing off when it's done playing.
😊
I'm really glad I found your site, I think the 'mistake' is awesome 👌 I'm glad you keep the errors in your videos... like the resin release. You're a regular guy... thanks
One word for this amazing project Ben ; Outstanding!!!
Thanks Mate
So this is how ships in the bottle are really made! Looks amazing!!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks Mate
Awesome job Ben! Live long and prosper. 🧡✨ ~ Roma
Thanks Roma 🖖
I just like watching because you’re always positive and fun, the end product being awesome is just an added bonus!
Thanks Mate 👍
It's amazing how a miss-hap can make something cool
Shared it with mum! She thinks it’s really cool. I think she’s obsessed with Star Trek I know the full intro from her watching it lol.
Thanks Keely, tell her i said hi 👋
Love these...... Got me inspired to try making some myself.
Thanks Mate
Excellent work, the way the colour shifts on the base with the melted rod is very nice.
So crazy you were able to get the same results. I really like the look of this one.
Thanks Angi
So cool! Next higher level: two ships battle🤗 maybe Star Wars?? Ben is best!
Thanks Mate
Another wonderful creation
Thanks Mate
I think it's beautiful. You are a real craftsman, I wish I could make stuff like that. But I'm all thumbs and I don't know how to work with tools. I really like your videos.
Thanks Mate
YES! The 1st enterprise in a bottle video is the 1st video I saw of yours and got me to sub! Was such and awesome video imo and I’m glad you did a 2nd video! Keep up the great vids!
Thanks Marcus 👍
Next time do a Klingon D-7 battle cruiser.
This is AMAZING. I love it so much!!! And by coincidence I have Star Trek enterprise on the TV right now :')
I don't know if you have ever seen Space Balls, but in there, they hit ludicrous speed and went plaid, this Enterprise almost went plaid. :) It looks great!
Yeah I remember that lol, Thanks 👍
I really enjoyed this one! It was amazing! I love the color of the base. It really looks spacy!
Thanks Emily
@@BensWorx My pleasure! 😊
You are VERY creative. Love your videos.
Thanks Mate
WOW. I think I like the rustic look of ship #2
Thanks Lynn :)
Totally nailed it!! Again =D Nice work, it turned out so cool!
Thanks Zac
Wow, who would a thought! Great job Ben, really great job! Thanks for doing a 2nd one! They are awesome! 👏👏👏💜😊 Pam
Thanks Pam
@@BensWorx can i ask, how much did it sell for
If you are ever worried that you may have trapped air in an object that is to go in resin, coat the object in resin and let it dry prior to immersing it in resin. Nice work, loved the color.
Thanks Lesley 👍
Wow that bad boy is awesome....I would think to any star trek fan out there would love to add that to their collection I know my brother would he is really into to it...I will say this friend you are very good at what you do lol
Thanks Mate 👍
Very well done. I love the effect. It's like space warping for the Enterprise.
Thanks Mate
I’ve never cast anything with epoxy but I still find forgetting to spray mold release very relatable.
Outstanding work Ben! I love that color shift powder. I may try that exploding support rod trick in some future work. Thanks for the great video!
Amazing! I'm definitely watching on ebay. I'm working on set up a spot for my star trek collectibles right now. It's almost mind-blowing that I sat down to take a break and this video was in my notifications lol.
Thanks Mate, it sounds like you have a great collection
So super nice working
Thanks Mate
You make my heart very happy when you do things you love so much
Thanks Mate 👍
You were perfectly hiding the ship at every rotation and hiding it until the end. Looks really cool!
I thought the first one was cool, but mate you knocked it out of the park with take 2, very wicked.
Thanks Mike :)
Top work again Ben 👌
Thanks Mate
Love it, exploding rod is the biz. When I was young I had eye shadow like the powder you used 🤣 hahahaha
Thanks Alison, 😂
I love this!! The fractured rod looks so cool and really adds some depth! 😍 I love your stuff and am anxiously waiting for my dragon egg to arrive!!
Thanks Jen, it should arrive soon 👍
Ben you're killin' me! I thought it would come out perfect. That being said, it's unbelievably cool looking. It looks like it's from another galaxy or time. Wait a minute, it is! Thanks for sticking with Star Trek!!

Thanks Ellis 😊
Nice work unimaginable imagination
Thanks Mate
Mr. Ben Worx, your skill is super wild and very creative!!! Could you please consider doing a nightmare before Christmas theme or a grave yard scene..? Keep up the awesome worx!!!!!
Thanks from Toronto Canada!!
Best line “guess who forgot to leave mold release”
Smart, love watching the chilled content.
Big Star Trek fan both look ace 👍
This one blew my mind it’s amazingly beautiful!! Absolutely amazing
Thanks Lorissa
The Borg has hit the enterprise agine. (Scotty) I'm giving her all she's got captain
That crack really makes the piece. Love that colour shift, too.
Thanks Lorna
Wow Ben great job
Thanks Dave
Your project is beautiful. Nice to see your video back to normal lot better when you talk thought out the video.
Thanks Angela
Ben's Worx you are welcome .
You should try this again with no ship and a few rods to see if you can create a lot of these "explosions" in a project. If you use a reflective piece of burl to create more colors.
It’s like your reading my mind
I thought to myself, 'nah, he won't recreate it!'....but blow me down trekkie fans, he did!....well done Ben...'you made it so!' 😆 💜💜💜
Thanks Dee 🖖
You are the Bob Ross of resin... mate! well done!! make Doctor Who Tardis scene... this accident can make it look amazing with fade colors all over!!
Love the pattern on your bench top Ben, the knot looks like the eye of a dog!
Yeah it’s pretty cool looking
I was going to say it looks like seal
Next ship in the bottle add the concave bottom that wine bottles have. I think that will give it that little extra that will go a long way!
that rod blast makes the ship look like it hit a subspace mine
I am an avid Star wars and muscle car fanatic. Would love to own a piece of your amazing work
Just thinking... if it would be possible to put some paints inside the ship, before casting it, maybe that blast/ripple effect could gain some color. Something ike a ribbon in "Generations"....
That was great! Please do another ship-in-a-bottle with Slave I !!
Thanks Mate 👍
Oh wow. I like this one better then the first one.
I would like to see you do something with bears. Maybe polor bears. I love bears and collect different things that has bear on and/or in them. I just thought polor bears would look pretty cool. Something I would buy as long as it wasn't expensive cause all I get is a once a month disability income (since I'm disabled and have to use a walker whenever I'm walking). Think about it and let me know what ya think.
It looks cool with the explosion
Thanks Yvonne
Not sure what took me so long to get here.. Pre warp civilization might of been it. But, finally made it and you certainly have a new sub my friend. 👍🏼

Thanks John, I appreciate your support 👍
Love the video. I am a star trek fan. I learn alot watching your videos. Many thanks and keep going. 👍 #STAYSAFE
Thanks Simon
Cool Ben, at least you figured out what caused the cracking. And a way to add some cool effects to your bottle dioramas. Melinium Falcon next? :)
Thanks Mate 👍
@@BensWorx Your welcome Ben. And keep up the cool projects.
Absolutely and totally awesome!
Thanks Ellen
There's a shape a seal in your work bench at 4:56. It's cool 😎
Wow that looks awesome
Thanks Beth
I know it’s 3 months late but I started to work in resin and I put my prom flower in it and I had that flower for 6 years and it was dryed out so I risked it and it worked out but I had some problems with air bubbles but omg it came out amazing so I love when something goes wrong but make it look even cooler
Great video. Hugs from Halifax
Thankyou 😊
once again amazing work
Awesome video now if you can find NCC 1701 A Enterprise and the USS Reliant yellow fishing line for phasers. In a sphere.!
Such lovely work and content, I think it be cool regardless of the ship.
Thanks Mate
Try using a cotton bud to spread glue and resin about,saves on trying to clean or even throw a good brush away everytime.
Not a bad idea but fibers come off the bud, when using UV resin to paint, the brush is saved as it doesn’t cure until uv light hits it so you can wipe it off and use it again
Subscribed after watching his first video great job!!
Consider making a riser rod out of something truly melty, like paraffin or crayon. Try different shapes, bulging at the base and thin at the top or vice versa. Curved risers and zig zag risers. I think you hit upon something that could be an entirely new creative expression!
LOVE THIS MATE IVE SUBBED AND GONE ON A BINGE. Keep up the amazing work mate.
Wow!!! Millenium Falcon next???
Pretty pretty please with extra cherries & cream on top :D
that looks cool, you got talent my friend, I like that you use the resin to make the bottle,👍👍👍
Thanks Mate
Can you tell me more about sanding, buffing, and clarifying the resin after it has been on the lathe please?
I have a video on my channel explaining the process
