I'm not sure what I enjoyed more... your talent, your patience, or your passion. I watched your entire build on this, and as someone who has built 95% of my own magic/illusion/escape props for more than 40 years (and have built for many others), I can certainly appreciate the time, dedication, thought and endless hours (days, weeks, months) of work you put into making this one-of-a-kind Flea Circus. Truly MAGNIFICENT! You made my day!
when I had a sfx company I built a similar circus for a client around 1985., Hovever you have added features that we did not even consider... this is a great piece of imaginative work..thank you for the vid,,,
This is one of those things I've always heard of in movies and just never looked up , and well just wow. The metal bending itself is just brilliant , thank you so much!! that was great to watch!
I loved watching your videos making this flea circus during the lockdown, it’s so well made, so fun and so clever. It reminds me of Tommy Wonders mechanical magic.
Some time ago I watched the videos of this being built. You did a great job with it. Some very innovative solutions and quite cool looking. Great job with it. Glad you are getting at least some use with it. Should be a big hit at kid's birthday parties.
Low self-discharge NIMH batteries will eliminate the risk of leakage. A leak could destroy the whole thing. Those fumes go everywhere and corrode everything they touch.
@@RandiRain I repair and collect old radios. A lot of times they were put away with an alkaline battery in them and they reek havoc in some cases. I've seen fairly seemingly minor leaks where the battery compartment has a little corrosion, but where the circuit board near the battery is covered in corrosion caused by the fumes.
So I'm a little curious, on the 3 wheeler act - since your "floor" of the circus is below the rim of the suitcase, are people who are seated able to even see the 3--wheeler? I'm just wondering if it would be better to have the floor of the circus level with the rim of the suitcase for better viewing by the audience.
@@RandiRain In my mind's eye, I see stickers plastered everywhere, from playbills to Dennys to construction sites; anywhere you might uncover a flea circus. I can imagine a few googling Randi Rain and seeing the presentation.
Love the Flea Circus. So much 3D printed goodness...
My pride and joy.
Brilliant Randi! Brilliant!
Thank you very much.

Thank you very much. Always nice to hear. Glad you got some enjoyment out of it.
The performance was strangely wholesome!

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
AMAZING Randi! Bravo! What an amazing show!
Thank you.
Wow. That's amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome
Absolutely Astounding! I love all the engineering and of course, the performance! Really cool!
Thank you very much!
Thanks to you now I have been able to see a flea circus.
The best flea circus!
This is one of those things I've always heard of in movies and just never looked up , and well just wow. The metal bending itself is just brilliant , thank you so much!! that was great to watch!
That's exactly why I made it, because I had only seen crappy ones, and just heard about good ones.
Beauty!!!!
Thank you. My pride and joy.

Wow... Compared to Tommy Wonder. Thanks.

Thanks. There's several things that I came up with, and the traditional things have new twists on them. It's my pride and joy.
Hehe, amazing fleas :-)
The best
Omg, love it😂😂😂great job.
Glad you enjoyed it... It's my pride and joy.
This is fantastic, very creative. I love it.
Thank you so much.
I was itching to see this 🤣
I saw a flea circus on NY Coney Island in early 60s. Memory is vague but I maybe remember a flea tied with a hair to a tiny chariot and moving it.
There were real flea circuses that used real fleas.
Can't argue with you that was the world's greatest fle Circus 🎪
Thank you... My pride and joy.
How do you keep your fingers from sticking to the CA glue when you press on it?
I don't. I just pull them off before they get too stuck.
Two years?!
Yep, I made it during the lockdown.
👏👏👏🤓❤️
Thank you.
The federal reserve guarantees this flea circus, at no expense to taxpayers.
That has to be a good thing.. Thanks.
It would be fun to add some soft Calliopie music playing in the background as you narrate.I bet you could make a little chip/speaker ic board.
The problem is the power to amp it up. It has enough batteries already.
welll now I gotta go watch the flea circus videos, and whats the graphite for?
Graphite is a lubricant. It was to try and make the strong flea lift easier.
@@gemmyhamstercollection966 but it doesnt look like oil
It's a fine powder, usually used inside locks for the mechanics to move freely.

Interesting... I also know that you let it air out after fill the butane lighter. Otherwise it blows up in you face. I'll check out the batteries.

It's not a stage prop. It's close up. A crowd gathers around.
@@RandiRain thanks I didn’t understand the sight lines.
Still want stickers of the banners.
I have made fridge magnets before, but I gave them to the patrons.
