    • @peterhutchinson2836
      @peterhutchinson2836 4 роки тому +5

      Hey was thinking that you could use the joints in the making of the sockets. Maybe you could do it in two parts with the main portion of the cast being cast first. Then make a hole where the socket would go making sure that the diameter is larger than the joint. Afterward you could maybe pour resin into the hole with the joint in. Which would leave an impression.
      Hope this helps!

  • @TheCrafsMan
    @TheCrafsMan  4 роки тому +5

    Wow! THANK YOU ALL so much for the feedback and ideas! :D
    So here's what I'm gonna try next:
    - Attach half-pegs to the arms and body (at the flat areas where the parts meet).
    - Make a mold of these parts, pegs attached and all.
    - This SHOULD give you a mold with places where you can pop in actual Glyos pegs, BEFORE pouring the resin.
    - NOTE: The pegs in the arm molds would have mold release applied, so they can be removed after.
    - The resulting cast should be a body with actual, strong Glyos pegs, and arms with sockets that match.
    I may film that and put it in a video if it works. Or maybe if it doesn't too.

  • @ricklepick9148
    @ricklepick9148 4 роки тому +11

    Seems like you might could get some round stock turned, with the shape of the peg on the end. These would be kind of like temporary 'arms' during the casting process. Snap those in the body (you'd need to get the receptacle part in the body somehow - lost wax type of process maybe?) and pour your mold over the hole thing, leaving a bit of the 'arms' sticking out of the mold so you can get ahold of them. After the mold is set, pull the 'arms' out and now you will be able to de-mold the body. Now you have a 3-part mold - the main cavity and the two 'arms' that will create the receptacles in the body. Push the arms back into the mold (you'd need something for them to register against for accuracy), then pour your resin. If it has a little flex to it, you should be able to pull the 'arms' out and de-mold. Maybe that makes sense, maybe not, I feel like I'm ramblin' like the CrafsMan.
    Anyway, that's kind of how that would be done in a production environment, except moving the 'arms' in and out would be all mechanized. You might not get the longest life out of your molds, but I'm sure you are clever enough to figure this one out.
    Your videos are amazing, thanks for brightening all of our days.

    Thank you for your videos. Its been a dream of mine to make action figures that people would enjoy playing with and collecting since I was a kid (I'm 23 now). I've been sculpting my whole life and have been trying to figure out plastics on and off for the past 2 years. All of your videos have been invaluable to me in trying to figure out how to make molds and which resins to use for the differing durability the figures will need. I've been trying to make an action figure/ model kit series of robots with interchangeable parts that I can mold on tree sprues just like a model kit to save time during casting and to capture the experience of making a sturdy, modular model kit. I was really discouraged for a long time after constantly failing to get anything right with mold making or pressure casting and having no one to learn from for the admittedly niche thing I've been trying to do. But with every video you make I feel like not only am I watching a great video of someone who shares the same dream and passion for this hobby of toy making, but I'm getting so much closer to getting to my dream of making that perfect toy with all of the clever tips and techniques you use. I'm back on the horse thanks to you and hopefully soon with some more of your videos and hard work I'll have these toys done soon. So thank you and please keep steady craftin'.

  • @johngreves

    Crafsman - I've made molds for a long time, if you drill the peg holes oversized, split your character in half,and embed the desired peg in a semi-rigid clay (Like Roma or chevant #3 or 4) Put the halves back together and cast a negative mold with a strong/flexible material (Like smooth-on Dragonskin) You should be able to mold the toys and pull the mold pegs out...

    My favourite television program on UA-cam!
    An idea for adding Glyos sockets to other figures. Make a mold of a Glyos piece, then dremel down your cast until you have a little cylinder with the plug hole in the middle (like a Lego 1x1 cylinder). Copy that plug-plug, and add it to your custom figures.
    Basically, make bigger sockets in the torso, then slot in the smaller, more stable Glyos socket.
    I've been doing this with Figuarts pieces :)

    Hey Crafsman, long time viewer here. I think contracting out to a manufacturer with the setup to mass-produce your art and your friend's gift figures is a wonderful idea. Think of it like this: if you wanted to contract a run for the free-range chicken, you still had a hand in its making. You had every hand in its creation because it's 100% your art, your figure. People want to buy it because they want to share a part of that joy that you had in making it, and they love your show and want to think of why they like what you do when they see it; sure it's nice having something made by hand, it really is, but it's just not feasible when you have so so many people wanting to share in that joy. I can tell you I'd be super happy if I were able to get a free-range chicken even if it was mass-produced, because then I'd be able to paint and enjoy a free-range chicken. As it stands, I missed both releases and didn't manage to get one, and have no access to a 3-d printer to use the one on your etsy shop. Maybe this helps your decision, I hope it does, whatever you do I'll keep watching and keep steadycraftin :)

    Hey Crafman, I loved Captain Planet when I was younger. Also I may be able to help a little, I hand cast my own tiny ball joint mold using mold max 60, even with a low tear strength it worked. I just made sure before pouring the silicone, I used a fine tiny brush and painted the silicone into the undercut to poke out any bubbles. I then poured the rest of the silicone. It worked perfect with no bubbles. And worked for many casts. This may help you with getting a clean cast to test your joint system. 💪👍

What’s the point of making a lot of money when you don’t ever have time to spend any of it until you’ve got to spend a whole bunch on your failing health due to being overworked?

Not the cheapest stuff money can buy, but it may be worth a look for ya. :-)

He's definitely out there somewhere, although he is a busy family man, so he can be a bit hard to reach at times, from what I understand. Definitely get in touch with Marty though too, he's always super helpful and has helped tons of other Glyos producers with their sculpts/production figures! (Plus he's just a fun guy to talk to) Wish you the best of luck on your journey to Glyos compatability, Craftsman. 👍

    I think I might have an idea for your molds CrafsMan. Try CUTTING one of those Glyos studs in HALF and glueing them both ends to your torso figure. When you have them where you want the articulation to be, then you can cast a mold. After you have your master-cast mold you can PLUG two FULL Glyos pegs into the MOLD at the articulation points. You should then have a mold with the PEGS going "INTO" the torso. Then you can just make a torso cast. Hopefully those Glyos pegs can be pulled out the torso leaving you with two perfect sockets! I don't know if that will work, I've never made a mold. I could be off base and you really were wondering how you'd make a single piece mold work when you have two pegs sticking into the walls and you gotta get your cast out without damaging the mold. If that's your problem [Shrugs] I haven't got an idea on that. CrafsMan if you happened to read, hope it helped. Thank you for making these awesome and entertaining vids. If ya didn't read well, looking forward to seeing what solution you do come up with :].

    Don't apologise for rambling! Great video once again and I love just hearing you explain how you see things and the way your thoughts work when it comes down to being creative, it all seems to make sense. I hope when you get set with the Crafsman figure to be released, we can easily get it shipped to the UK. I'd love to buy 1 for display and 1 to open :D

    Crafsman, there is a simple solution to incorporating the glyos peg into your silicone molds. All you have to do is incorporate the glyos pegs into your master to create the negative in the silicone mold. Then just plug a glyos peg into each negative in the silicone before you cast resin around it. If you want it to be removable, just spray some release on it. When your resin casting comes out of the silicone mold, it will have the glyos peg cast in place, and no worrying about the silicone undercut getting worn out. Easy peasy :)

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  4 роки тому +2

      Y'all nailed it, man! The closest thing I thought of was removable pegs slid in from the sides during casting, but it makes TOTAL sense to not even do that, but to just incorporate the peg into the cast! Gotta try it, my man! Thank you!

      @@TheCrafsMan My pleasure man, it's one of those mold making/casting tricks that you don't really think of until you see it in use. I learned it at a rapid prototyping company I worked at. Hope it does the trick.

    There is a unique originality to short runs that a maker has produced himself. That in its own right hold a great value. On the other hand mass produced gets out to more people and allows the joy to be shared.
    How about a short run of say 100 homemade special ones, then larger run of production type ones that are cheaper for all the kids, and collectors who want to help support you.
    Keep up the great work! Love this video, and all the ones you do! I like the Glyos peg system for the arms personally.

  • @sunflowersky8144

    I think its a great idea to mass produce the craftsman figure because that will probably be in highest demand. You can always keep making other figures and crafts handcrafted by yourself for your etsy shop.

    Ok two ideas...... a tiny Free Range Chicken accessory to go with the Crafsman figure.
    And a subscription to your figures. So we could just have the new figure or accessories shipped as you come up with the neat new stuff .

    Hey Crafsman, make a polymer clay Crafsman action figure with the peg already inside where the points or articulation are, then cut it in half the long way top to bottom like a G.I. Joe body and take out the peg. Then carefully put the two haves back together so the peg cavity isn't misshapen. Then bake it to harden it and put some really flexible silicone in the peg cavities before making a mold for the figure. Then you should be able to pour resin to make the action figure and the flexible silicone wont mess up the arm peg holes with air bubbles and will come out easily without getting stuck since the silicone will only stick to itself. Hope that made sense. It has worked for me in similar situations in the past.

    Choosing a peg system would allow you to produce alternate limbs or - if you make further collectible figures in the same scale - the parts between figures could be interchanged. I think that this would add to the collect-ability and fun.
