New Concrete Lamp ua-cam.com/video/Kb9vXZfTYoA/v-deo.html
you wanted a couple thousand likes..there you have it 49k likes...and you
DIY Creators is there a way you can this same lamp but with expoxy or resin or something like that
How to make trees for stage
This is such a cool idea!
Nice
Even though this is older, in my mind THIS is what UA-cam should be about! Building things, not tearing people down.
6times LFC HA! 😆 (He’s kidding. ⬆️)
True words indeed!👍❤
just watch the damn video and learn.. spare us your SJW shit
Ya! I agree.
Damn hippie.
Pretty nice, I like it when creators make things that are unique and don't copy other people, +1 Subscriber.
Thanks! :)
what I absolutely love about this video is the fact that your instructions and how to's were clear and concise! alot of new DIY-SELFERS including me, have trouble understanding methods and materials from other videos, this is awesome work too!
Well put together, the step-by-step was enough to describe what was done but not over analyzed to be boring. Glad to see you added some links in the description and really enjoyed the commentary.
I really like the new trend on concrete lamps but I've never seen such a comprehensive description on how to do it thanks heaps
Thank you.
Nicely made video. Concise and informative with no unnecessary crap like a lot of DIY videos.
Thank you
I saw this on Facebook a few hours ago but the last half of the video was cut so I didn't get to see how it all came together. I'm glad I found it on UA-cam bcuz I really want to do this as a gift for a family member. Thanks!
This is the sort of content I want from UA-cam. Easy to follow, great narration, no plinky plonky muzak and a superb product at the end. Nice.
i like the concrete look its different and better vs. plastic or wood. l may make mines a bit larger though just because l have more space to cover and lite.
I'd prefer wood, but his was cool too.
Works really well for an industrial-themed decor. I like it.
he should painted the concrete black or white
I think this is beautiful...would have never thought of it. My son in law is a concrete business owner and worker....he would love this. I now have a few ideas on how to use these....thank you so much LOVE IT!!!
:) Thank you.Your welcome.
I usually hate DIY channels for lack of professional approach and often complicated but useless work, but this guy here is whole a different story, what he does is practical, modern and good looking.
Thanks for NOT doing this with just boring music and no commentary....good job
WOW! It looks amazing!
1,145,945 views. Man, you absolutely deserve it. You're awesome
Thank you. I appreciate it
Wow, it's so nice to see chocolate hands in work! Very impressed, you have my respect!
Love this idea! The concrete makes it SO modern!!
I would never have matched that voice with someone who is clearly a genius.
lol Thanks
I just made 24 of these with cement and black pigment. Hope mine turn out well. They're going to be the center pieces at my wedding
Your Wife will remember your doing this for her forever, Good for you and Congratulations from someone whose been there since Christmas Day 1976
Thats pretty sweet! I love that you actually narrated the video instead of just adding text over the video like most people do
If you put a slit down the PVC pipe before filling, you can reuse the form, I just use packing tape to keep it tight. Wipe the inside with vegetable oil before filling and it slides right out. Your lights are awesome!!
you can save the PVC piping by applying baby oil to the inner walls of it, once you've let the concrete cure, simply tap it a few times with the mallet to free the mold! some concrete pros use baby oil, vaseline and even butter you can also use cooking oil or Pam! :P lol
Yep I agree. I am aware I simply forgot during the process. :)
Yeah I was thinking of doing something similar if I decide to do this. It looks cool though, I subbed.
Even wd-40 would work good!
try spraying the PVC with a generous amount of cooking spray and the concrete should slide out just wait a few hours then slide it out let it dry completely
I don't want this to be interpreted wrong, but its good to see a black man doing this kind of stuff on youtube! The diy community on youtube is very light, it's good to see you mixing things up! Peace from the east coast!
Tip. You could add coloured glass pieces and mix them into the concrete and then when it hardens, spray it with clearcoat. The results will be STUNNING..
LOVE LOVE LOVE your voice, so nice to listen to....
Thank you :)
Very nice. Could even add some dye to the concrete mix for additional color instead of the standard concrete look.
If its for indoors and you want a soft look, try inkjet refill ink. It provides a very rich soft colour. You could also try acrylic paint, add to the water prior to mixing. Coloured chalk added to the dry mix might look pretty good too.
Bounty B. Wolf I think concrete alone looks rustic and beautiful
I really dont think cement can be dyed. It's ground up rocks, not cake flour
they turned out really cool....they would also be great outdoor night lights...I think I would just carry them around to what ever part of the house I was at...to cool to leave alone...great job...love your style
a nice present for my wife..for our lawn. thanks man.
amazing, this is going to make a perfect mood lighting for my pack porch
I never saw string lights before.
Super job, well explained, awesome video.
You earned a subscriber.
Awesome Thank you.
With lots of love from here in Iran 🇮🇷
Very cool, I'm going to try this with colored concrete and sand it as you did to expose the aggregate. Thanks for showing
I think it would look even better if you frosted/sandblasted the glass a bit.. not completely, just enough to make it a little foggy. Came out awesome though, nice job
I am more than willing to support. Great work on the lamps.
Awesome Thank you :)
Good job my brother you had my attention all the way to the end.
I love your creativity. Think I might make some of these but using the glass from old lanterns.
wow! very cool, man! great idea, video, narration, instruction, all around!! definitely on my 'build something' list!
it turned out really nice
Not sure why anyone would not like this idea. Very clever. Thanks for sharing.
well im impressed......no wonder you have x2 million views....you have earned them .........another great idea to add to my job list
Dude, I LOVE this idea!!!
I want to do it NOW!!!!
Thank you a lot!
Dude! You could sell these for good money!
I was going to say the same thing! really cool project!
The Craft Hacker nope, that's where all the law suits from idiots and gold diggers come in place. Better make the money of youtube. he has 300k+ subscribers
grace S Right!!!!!!!!
u may not like it but noctanol is right, I can totally see a lawsuit cuz some idiot dropped it on his foot or something
grace S yeah, to me ! they are aweomse and im not doing all this shit.
I really like the idea and the simplicity it took to make it. It would be very easy to variate on the idea. Thanks for the video!
How I wish I had all the equipment you used! All I have is a mallet! Great project!
Man I love creative people lol! I wish I had the tools to make stuff like this :)
:D Thank you. There is many ways to do this, the tools I used only make it a faster. Many people have made it and share it with me on instagram. You can do it.
get creative...u don't have to use concrete. go to ur hardware store & look around, get inspired!!
What tools? A saw- a ruler, cement, wood, air dry clay. THINK OUTSIDE the BOX
Just take short cuts!
Damn, these are pretty nice lights, dude. Im gonna take a shot at them.
I just came across your video and am hooked. I was planning on going to bed early but now I know I'm going to be up watching a bunch of your DIY videos. I hope to one day make something awesome from this. I don't really have any tools so am grateful for you thinking of us newbies! Thank you so much for taking the time on making these videos for us viewers. You are amazingly talented!
If you used another pvp pipe as a sleeve you could cut the smaller one right in half and have a reusable jig form - also if you used plugs you could form the exact sizes you need for your hollow and mount ends as well as set up aligned holes for your cords by drilling a hole and setting a dowel in.
Makes everything reusable and delivers a consistent result over and over if you try that way.
Looks really good. I wonder if putting something like vaseline on the inside of the pipe would allow it to be slipped off?
We used to use diesel fuel on our cylindrical forms. Vaseline would probably work great for a small lamp build.
A basic wiping of oil works too. In construction, we use form oil sprayed on. It can be rubbed off when the form is stripped away.
brush on a coat of household cooking oil. I've made planters and pots and oil the forms
D rB yup we use diesel fuel on wood if form oil isn't available, but I bet vegetable oil works. I bet spitting the pvc in strips and putting them back together with duct tape would make them reusable
cartmanrlsusall Duct tape good idea. You could strip the forms without breaking them that way.
Dude, awesome design! Thanks for the ideas on doing this!! Great, great job!
Thanks man!
Awesome work. Not something I would have thought of myself, but now I'm looking at how I can put a few of these together.
Thanks Tim.
Really like the lights. You gave good explanation on how to make each part. Thanks for sharing.
Nice project. I totally want to make a pair of these lamps now. Subscribed!
Thanks man!
that is fantastic absolutely gorgeous
Thank you
You could use melamine, hot glue the center and the outer PVC to the board. You could also glue a small piece of dowel for the wire channel. Spray a little WD40 on the inside before pouring in the concrete. You can also add concrete pigments for different bases.
Very nice project. One tip. I would cut the PVC pipe all the way through and hot glue or wrap sturdy tape around it before filling with concrete. This would also make the mold reusable. Also, spray the insides with cooking spray for easy removal.
Absolutely STUNNING!!! Thanks for sharing, These are going to be my next project for sure!
Fantastic bro...Another good build and another idea for my tool box!
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. These are beautiful, simple and not expensive. You've inspired me to get creative.
Thanks! U gave us a easy, direct explanation! Congrats! Love it!👏👏👏👏
I love this I have a lot of those light did not know what to do with them, thank you
Your welcome
I'd add some foam padding to the bottom so it doesn't scratch your table. Anyway nice end result.
Ill be doing that soon, Thank you.
Even a few small blobs of hot glue work too.
Very nice, I would add some Krylon chrome spray to the base and glass for a modern appearance. Stenciled art flowers on the base would make it fit in any room with the right color choice for the project.
Those would make awesome night lights for my computer desk!Very creative!!
Humans are so creative and talented. I'm so jealous I was brought up and raised on Mars.
you are very creative,
Finally another channel worth adding. Thumbs up!
Dude, that was bad ass.
Damn, those are beautiful.
Andrew Williams ct
Awesome project. I'm going to make a few myself. May I suggest putting some self sticking fely on the bottom to prevent scratching furniture.
Nice idea, well presented, and now I'm going to have to build a dozen for our patio for my Wife as a surprise.
Thank you for sharing.
Love your work. Keep em coming.
solid video
Thanks!
DIY Creators how'd you get into all of this? were you doing this stuff before you started your YT chan?
/ Yes I was making stuff around the house since 2012. Its all trial and error. I get a idea then I give it a shot.
DIY Creators was it first a hobby, though, or a profession or?
It's still my hobby. I do this after work and on the weekend.
Way cool man! If you're impatient like me, you can also use quikrete latex cement which can cure in just a couple of hours, there's also pretty cheap additives you can add to speed that up to as little as a half hour.
Dude, you seal up the bottoms "Watertight" and you've got some awsome path, sidewalk, driveway lights. Outdoors you could even go bigger with the clear tubes. I would use a release agent and spare yourself the aggrivation of trying to remove the cured cement, plus you could use the forms over again.
Good project, i like it.
Thank you
Good idea/job dude! May want to spray some sort of mold release agent to the inside of the pvc to make it easier to remove, and use a bottle that has a flat surface. Lots of possibilities with this idea, thanks!
it's so satisfying to listen to your voice
Totally badass. Thank you and keep em coming!
SUBBED!
Awesome! Great job definitely gonna try this sometime:)
Thank you. :)
Excellent DIY video. Very clear, well explained, and great results. Keep up the great work my man.
I cut steel for my art and I really like your chop saw table set up. Those lamps are so cool, not sure I have the skill set to make them! Amazing! You really should sell them on Etsy. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome channel just subscribed. Keep up the good work.
Thank you
Someone please tell me how this man randomly generated the idea, "oh yeah I'm gonna make a lamp WITH CONCRETE" hOw
how did anyone ever come up sith any idea?
How did some man think "lemme create something very hot with those 2 rocks and ill put wood to keep it alive and ill put my dead animal on it"
acid
He's just creative. Mix that with talent and viola!!!
Its called having a brain...
These would look perfect on my deck this summer
Could I just say those are amazing! You are a genius.
muito lindo e criativo
wow this is cool!
Brilliant video. Well documented. Diresta in style, but still very, very good.
Fantastic DIY! Especially as you've made it look so simple.....!! Thank you from India.
Thank you :)
You also could stain the concrete :)
That's true :)
Ugh- concrete is beautiful just the way it is!
excelente.
Great idea, easily customizable and affordable. Thanks for the video. There are good ideas to make it easier in the comments.
just discovered your channel and like lots of what you do. This looks like a good idea for mothers day
Thanks for making a video that doesnt involve a bunch of yelling.
wow this video got me subscribed.
Great idea, well done!
Cheers from Tokyo Japan!
Super chouette idée !! Merci pour le partage !
Vous pouvez aussi utiliser une boite en carton (genre boite à tabac) au lieu du tube de pvc : ce sera plus facile à retirer
BRILLIANT! Meow!
