I just want to say, I am Happy to see/Hear you wonderful wife has joined you doing videos. Also I love Stingy.
Setup 3 toothpicks so you can set the ice on it fast as a stand, and fast coat / or 4 or 5 whatever you need.. can get rid of toothpick later
😂😅 oh said this at 1m not 3:00
Try putting a stick of resin instead of the toothpick in the Ice cube BEFORE you freeze it. And use it to hang the ice in the cup without letting it touch the sides or bottom, while setting the whole cup. The resin stick wouldn't have to be removed like the toothpick would, so there would be no hole to have to fill.
Yeah, just like making popsicles.
Came to say the same! Great minds hey.... lol
Stingy
@@darrellkrank485 Why do you say THAT?
😊
My vote is Stingy, of course. Who can resist those goggley eyes?? 🥰 Adding color to the cubes is a great idea. Blue or green, maybe purple. Good luck in trying it again. 😊💜
Yeah definitely going to try again with color 😊
Fishing line is ideal. Its clear and wont be seen once its trimmed away. Then you can just dip in resin and set it. Freeze some cubes with line attached
You can get various silicone ice cube trays and moulds, you could coat the bottom in UV resin fill with required liquid freeze then coat the top
i come here to comment the same thing
Or the silicone reusable ice cubes, but that it cheating 😂
Just watched the vid. Cool idea, no pun intended, but if I may suggest. Coat a silicone ice cube tray with epoxy resin, then fill with water and freeze, remove from freezer and coat the tops with resin before removing from the silicone. No guarantee but it is just a thought.
That was pretty cool! Stingy is my favorite and kind of cute for an ice cube!
You guys make resin work seems so romantic! ❤
Stingy with his off centre tail is definitely my favourite 😅 great fun video ❤
Yay, Nicole makes an appearance!!!❤
Hi, use a blue cleaning roller to better see whether water comes out when dabbing😊
Hi guys, love watching your videos and to answer your question about fresh water stingrays. The answer is yes. They live in the Amazon river.
I vote for Stingy! Y'all made a pretty cool project! So glad it worked out for y'al.
You could also put like fishing wire in the ice mold and freeze it with the wire in there. Then so what some of other suggestions were and suspend it but the fishing line would be damn near invisible
You could have just dropped it in that little cup, filled the rest up quickly and torched it. Would still be nearly a perfect cube inside. Good try though! Pretty cool
In regards to Freshwater stingrays, I would recommend checking out a channel calle "King of DIY". Joey currently has three breeding freshwater stingrays... but its not a hobby to get into lightly, they need a huge tank as they can live for up to 25 years and grow massive!!
Instead of using cocktail sticks/toothpicks, could you make/buy some clear resin rods and pre-freeze them into the cubes (like little ice lollies), then the excess rod could be cut away once you've covered the cube.
My vote, has to be for Stingy!!
@thekingofdiy is his channel name
I was waiting for you to freeze them again in the end
Stingy is my favorite! You need to make him a brother with a blue ice cube
Here is an idea that should work.
Step 1: get a resin cup mold and use that to make a cup from resin.
Step 2: pour a separate layer of resin to create a top for the cup note: must be wide enough to fully cover the open end of the resin cup.
Step 3: fill the cup full of water.
Step 4: use UV resin to glue the top onto the cup sealing the water in.
Awesome Video Ben's Worx and Nicole also my favourite one is Stingy.🙂
Love seeing Nicole in your videos. Love stingy.
Cute. But personally I would have made a base layer for Stingy. Then ploaced the cube on the hardend base. Would have been easier, I think. No bottom leaks.
It would be cool if you made some Christmas themed nesting dolls out if resin
You can get freshwater sting ray. I think Stingy is so cute ❤
Wet the stick put it into the ice cube tray, fill the tray freeze both. Then coat it. The googly eyes 👀 perfect. Dip it cure it in the cup. Stingy
next time you should do the stick in the ice cube before you freeze it. Also set the layer and then refreeze and then redip. And Stingy for the win
50/50 for my vote.
Nice work!
Nice idea but if you use fishing line would be better🎉❤
That thing is cool
If you look closely on stingy it almost looks like he has a little early, but a smile right underneath the eyeballs
Why not just dip it and then stick it in the freezer with the light. Get a small one like for nails that is cordless. It won’t get as hot.
Or set it on a cold pan with parchment paper on it. So it will stay cold.
There is such a thing as a fresh water ariver string ray, there from the Amazon.....
You can accumulate any salt water fish to fresh water and vice versa but they won't survive but 3 months.
Why not freeze an acrilic rod inside the icecube as it freezes? That way you dont lose valuable time trying to force a toothpick into the ice.
Remake cubey with pink water and turn it into a pig!
I think Stingy was the best....then again everything you guys make is AWESOME!! Thanks for the night's entertainment! (It's nighttime here in Canada!!
Maurice
P.S. I thought the mini mullet was going to be snipped on account of Nicole...What happened?😂
Don’t listen to 3:36-4:10 out of context.
Aka Ben on his wedding night
OMG I just re watched it 😂
If you had colorized the resin, it would have shown how much coverage you were achieving. Coming from someone who has NO experience in the craft. Thanks for sharing!
Man I would've just filled the cup and stuck the ice cube in then put the light on the entire cup, haha... I might very even tried to put ice cube in the resin then put it in the freezer again but with a uv light to try and keep the ice from melting while it sets...
I have an idea for this! You should get a silicone ice tray. Then put a layer of UV resin on the bottom and all of the sides (probably a couple layers and brush it on) and cure that completely. Then fill it with water (probably leave just a little bit of space because it'll expand when it freezes) and let it freeze completely. Now, take the tray out of the freezer and immediately put the UV resin on top and torch it from there. No need to hold it and it'll be in the shape of the ice cube. You could then encase that in normal resin and turn it into an egg! You could also try freezing the try with the coating of UV resin in it, so when you add the water, it's already super cold and should help with the freezing of the water.
This episode has a lot of moments where you need to SEE what they're saying, because some of the banter is a little suggestive 😂
I take it then I'm not the only one that was giggling like a 12 year old then.
Guess I'm gonna have to rewatch it, I didn't notice anything. But I am also watching this at, technically, 5am (mentally/sleepily, 4am), so I could miss an elephant walking around lol.
@@mystic_tacosListen without looking at the video from about 3:35-4:10
5:05-5:52 (especially 5:48-5:52)
I was listening to it but not watching it at the start … and I was thinking to myself 👀 if anyone hears this -they might question what I’m watching hahah
@@techywill🤣🤣🤣👏
There are freshwater string rays, but they need a really big tank. I love the creation! It’s really cute with the googly eyes
Hate to go this way but, one should definitely be watching the video for the first 5 minutes and not just listening. Did watch the entire video and as always, great content.👍
An alternative to freshwater stingrays is the hill stream loach. They are great little fish that look like rays!
You could have made the ice with a bit of fishing line already embedded, may need to tie a knot for grip
Brush a base and set first, then lay the ice on it and cover
Great episode and results. Love Stingy. I was wondering, as the ice cubes partially melted during the process, what if you placed these back in the freezer, would they then remain frozen, now that they are fully encased in resin?
No, ice will even thaw in insulated water bottles and coolers
Could you make a bowl or outer cover of resin then add water and freeze it, once frozen add a top cover to seal the water inside? Love your videos. Hello from Logan Village.
I think if you paint a thin shell of uv resin in an ice tray and make a flat slab for a lid you can fill it with water, freeze, then use uv resin to seal it closed befor the ice melts.. then you can put it into the pot.. but if the seal breaks, it'll be a very exciting potcam!
I was gonna say colored ice cubes would be cool. I vote for Stingy. 👍
Stingy. But Cubey looked like an ice-cube so that worked too. Coloured water would be better as you could see leaks more clearly. Adding a "stick" of some description while the ice cube is freezing may work better too. Lovely to see Nicole again this week. Two heads are better than one!
There are freshwater stingrays, they can go in freshwater aquariums but they will need a really big tank. Saltwater stingrays can not be converted. Cool project!
Have you tried painting the uv resin insde a flexible ice cube tray then fill with water and freeze then coat the top of the cubes before you get them out. I always watch your shows and it was the pumpkin one that gave me the idea with the ice.
I want to see sodium metal and water somehow in resin in a bubble then mix and see what kind of explosion would happen or a firecracker then try to light with a laser😊
3:30 until 4:15 sounds like a convo me and my Missus have every friday night
I'd be excited to watch another one with more testing that people have suggested in this comments
Love your collaborations with Nicole! ❤❤❤
If u listen to this video withour seeing whats going on youll laugh your butt off
"Uuuugggh...just got the tip
Oh yeah is it going in?
Oh yeah!
Actually didnt even know if this was possible!
Youthink THATS far enough???
Uhhhh.....idk, you think i can get it in further?
Yeah youve still got some room
Do you think you can go in just a little farther? You dont want it to slip out
(Strains) hurrrrgh! Ugh! Nope i dont think i can force it in much further"😅😂😂😂😂
The UV of the sun is LESS powerful than the UV flashlights you're using. I've watched other channels compare the two and the sun took 15-20 minutes to set the same amount of resin that a UV flashlight took 3-5 minutes to set. Just FYI.
Hey Ben, here's an idea. Take snow and press it into a mold/freeze it and then take a solution of UV resin and isopropyl alcohol (just enough to thin it out) and a spray mist bottle. Either inside a fridge/freezer or outside in the cold mist the UV resin solution onto the snow and slowly cure it. The idea being the misted solution will cure quickly without melting the snow allowing you to build up a solid shell of resin around the snow/ice.
Why not try setting the whole tiny cup when you dunk it in instead of removing, uving and redunking?
Also, set whatever stick you use in with the ice as it's freezing (like popsicles) so you don't have to melt it by shoving a stick in!
I always just recharge my old dead batteries. I've been doing it for years and never had a problem. Todays new chargers use low pulses to charge the batteries so they never explode from overheating.
please just let your significant other know what you are watching if she can hear at 3:33 and she's not looking. You may have to answer questions if not. just sayin'
If my first idea doesn't work, how about coating the sides & bottom of a silicone ice tray, cure it & then fill it up with water to freeze. Then, you can do the top after its frozen right in the tray. Then you dont have to touch it at all or shoce a stick in!
You can NOT convert a stingray to fresh water but there ARE freshwater stingrays.
I can't be the only one catching all those jokes right!? lmfao!!!!
3:36-4:10 Had me Dying
Jazza just made a resin project, and all I could think the whole time was, "that's not how Ben would do it"
I’ve been wondering what would happen if you put a tea bag or tea leaves in resin. That could be an interesting experiment.
it's been so great that nicole's been in more videos!
The resin in the CLEAR cup is getting exposed to the UV light. You need to cover it when the UV light is on.
Omg please try this with coloured cubes.
The only problem with using old batteries in the remote for the tv is on my tv it has an alert message that pops up telling me the remote batteries are low.
What if you were to create a hollow resin shape , with a hole, then fill.with water and freeze, then cover the hole?
ME AND MY WIFE LIK STINGY BUT WE WANT CUBEY LOV YALL VIDEOS STAY SAFE AND STAY BLESSED YALL 1 LOV
Also, why not just leave the cube in the cup when you UV torch it?
i never thought id see the day that id wanna put some ice in resin but here i am and here i go to the craft store 😂
Stingy❤️
Stingy is lovely, but I cast my vote for Cubie because it'll probably be the only vote he'll get. I love you Cubie!
Thanks Lynn 😊
Omg I am dying😂😂 Stingy should go on the wall with your fish. 😂😂😂
😂
Stingy for sure. love you guys.
I like stingy's eyes, but cubie has a cool natural vibe. I vote Cubie!
What about dry ice?
The googly eyes on stingy was a nice touch. Definitely my favorite of the two. The ice cube is cool with how smooth it is also though.
Agreed ❤
Stingy is perfect! You guys crack me up!
Thanks Linda 😊
HEY BEN JUST GOT THIS IDEA.. Try to cast pizza in resin 😂
One actually fully cooked. And another uncooked pizza so we can then see in the future how it changes with time.
Stingy is my favorite. I actually went down a rabbit hole online looking up stingrays and if they can live in freshwater...some can...usually found in rivers. And there's one who's scientific name is Heliotrygon, that has a small or non existent "sting".
After Steve Irwin, I kinda...hated stingrays. Taken too soon. But I guess they're pretty fascinating creatures.
The two of you talking about jamming the stick in! Just the tip. Should I put it in more? Don’t want it to slip out! 😅😅😅
Should really invest in some rechargeable batteries. They've really improved and I swear I've saved hundreds from just using regular batteries.
I vote for stingy
Of course, you COULD try to make an open UV resin "box" in a silicone ice cube tray, then freeze the water in it, then you'd just have to put UV resin over the top....
What happens when you have gel, and very thin liquid “crazy glue” in resin. When put into water the glue solidifies instantly.
Could have frozen some ice cubes with the tooth picks in the water.
Good thing this is a family friendly show lol...."just the tip" "put it in more, don't want it to slide out" 😂😂😂 yes I'm immature lol love your videos
Aww poor blind Cubee doesn’t stand a chance next to Stingee and his googly eyes 😂 Great experiment- thanks guys
Would it be possible to get some liquid nitrogen.. I can’t help but think that it would help prevent the melting of the ice.. maybe super chill the ice in the liquid nitrogen before coating it with the UV resin.. or maybe even letting the resin cure while it’s soaking in the liquid nitrogen… anyway loved the video stingy is def my favorite! ❤❤
Stingy.... Couldn't you make a small little hole in the upper back portion of him to inject a little bit of pigment of blue and then reseal it with the UV resin ? I don't know just an idea since you guys were saying you wanted it blue.
Stingy! I think he should make an appearence in some of the projects your doing...just for the giggles.
I'd lay the cube flat side down the mat cover it with the uv cure it. Turn it over, dry if necessary, cover other side, cure that.
Ok, during the stick going in part at the beginning... my wife shot me "you better not be watching corn." Omg, I died laughing.
You can't convert most salt fish to fresh. Brachish can sometimes go back and forth but it's not always ideal. You can get teacup stingrays in fresh.
DRY ICE! I think that would be a hell of an experiment - where UV or standard resin.
