VERY beginner friendly...Thank you! I love your "drop and catch" method. It's so simple but a true game changer!
I am a beginner to the world of tumbler art and your video has showed me some very valuable tips!
This is a GREAT video!!! No useless talking or chit chat, and VERY easy to follow! I am about to epoxy my first tumbler and I am going to use this method!! Thank you, you are a great teacher ♥
I've been so afraid to start sealing some custom made tumblers. But after watching this, I'm confident it will turn out beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!!
You can do it!
Do you have to wear like a mask and what not?
@@lexlex5339 I know this was posted a year ago but for any tumbler making newbies seeing this YESSSS def wear gloves and a respirator... When epoxying and sanding, you don't want to breath any of that in.
This is a great tutorial. Straight to the point and very beginner-friendly as you stated in the title. Thank you for taking the time to create this! Have a wonderful day!
Truly enjoyed watching! I'm just learning and this was extremely helpful. Thank you.
You made this so simple to follow and to understand. Thank you for taking your time to do this video and teach us your method.
Thank you so much for this very easy to follow Tutorial. I just did my very first tumbler. And because I followed your steps it came out Awesome!! You are great!
I love this drop and catch method!
I like that drop catch technique, thank you
Thank you-you explained and demonstrated it so well. I really want to try this!
Beautiful cup. Super helpful, I am getting ready to do
My first cup. Thank you so much.
this was the best method I have ever used ! I kept having fish eyes even though I would wipe down my cups with alcohol & make sure there was no debris or oil. I realized it was because there wasn’t enough resin in those areas due to me just pouring on random spots & spreading it out causing some areas to have more resin than others!! Seriously so glad I came across your video💙
That blue is so pretty!!!!!
Wow I just epoxied a tumbler and it was one big mess (epoxy was everywhere), wish I saw this video sooner, because it’s so much less messy, going to use this method for my second layer, thank you soooo much !!!!
I've watched a bunch of videos, hadn't heard about wet sanding or second layer of epoxy before. Not sure if I just didn't remember those steps or your deliver was much better. Thanks a bunch!
You made this look so easy! I have yet to even try one. I love the Zeta cup! Zzzzz-Phiiii!
Thank you so much for sharing this! Sooooo helpful! I want to do it now! The way you showed it is very beginner user friendly! ❤️
Thank you sooooo very much for sharing. It's going to save me a lot on Christmas gifts.
Loved this method worked for me. Thank you
Thank you for sharing this video. This really helped.
Yes Soror! Love it!
Your videos are amazing and so helpful thank you and it not to much information or to much talking and straight to the point.
Very informative for a beginner like me Thanks so much!!!
I love, love this demonstration. I just ordered my tumbler turner not even an hour ago! Looking forward to making some of these for gifts. I have to say...this is the very best video I've watched teaching how to do this. I will def look at your other videos. You do an absolutely fabulous job with your camera and audio. I look forward to watching many other videos from you in the future! Thank you, thank you. And by the way...this tumbler turned out gorgeous! I do many other crafts. Have a Cricut die cut machine and will be making decals out of vinyl for mine.
thank you so much for the compliment...you are going to find yourself making cups just because its tuesday lol
Very informative video. Thanks for the tutorial.
I’m so glad I came across this video! Before I was just pouring it on the tumbler and trying to catch it in time and spread well enough. I think I was also putting way too much on. I tried this tonight over another layer that was messed up, and I LOVED this method. Thank you!
Glad this was helpful! It will only get easier i promise!
Thank you for this amazing tutorial!
What a great video!
Awesome tutorial
Love it!!
Thank you for not being a giggly flake! This was an outstanding tutorial!
Great Job !!
Wow! Thank you so much for a very informative video, I learned more in nearly 12 minutes than I have in a week!
Glad i was able to help! Thanks for subbing!
Great tutorial
Thank you now I feel confident in using epoxy!
Very good beginner video. Now I think I can do it after watching you. Just gotta get the wet sanding down. Thanks.
I don't wet sand anymore...but best of luck to you...it easy after a few tries
I tried putting resin on a tumbler foe the first time and all I did was a mess but I’m gonna try it your way. Thank you so much for your advise
Awesome video, very informative and straightforward. I'm a beginner and your video 📹 will help me and possible save me a lot if time and $$.....thanks
Loved your video!
Thank you!!
It looks so easy, but I know it’s not!! Thanks so much for sharing this tutorial!
thank you for watching! honestly i started out hand turning which is really hard and eventually got a cup turner...just have to practice on a few cups to develop a good technique
Im focusing on those gorgeous nails!
Right!!
I love it! Hey Soror💙
Thanks Soror!
Beautiful royal blue tumbler! Love the Zeta Phi Beta decal. You describe the process perfectly!
You’ve convinced me to diy some cups for my boys. 😅
Well girl…I’m gonna epoxy my first 20 oz tumbler tmrw. I’ve been using uv resin to make glitter pens and now I’m stepping it up. I’ve watched your mod podge application and now your epoxy one. 🙏🏼🤞🏼🙏🏼🤞🏼Thanks!!
How'd it go?
@@PeriodSixDesigns I came out super nice. It was a solid color with a decal. Now, I started a 2 color ombré, chunky & fine. I’m on a roll 😂
Ty I enjoyed the video
I want some custom tumblers for my tarot page! Thanks this helps!
These videos are super helpful! Can you provide a tutorial of wet sanding? I’ve never seen the wet sanding process.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! This makes tumblers seem so much less scary! I was looking for the wet sand video, but saw in another comment that you no longer sand. What do you do instead of sanding? I can't wait to begin!!
I do a dry sanding...I'll make video soon
Great video. I have everything, but have been so reluctant to do my first epoxy tumbler. You have given me the confidence to try it. I have also been wondering if uv resin can be done on tumblers as well.
Thank you!
Great tutorial! Can you tell me what turner you use? I'm looking to buy one, but I'm worried about leaving it on for so long without overheating. Have you had problems with that or heard about turner's overheating?
Thanks for making this video! I will have to go see if you did one to show the wet-sanding part. I'm not sure I quite understand how that works. :)
So glad I found your channel, very very helpful! I'm so new to all of this and was wondering what machine you use for your decals?
Thanks !
That’s pretty cool! Liked how informative you are! My question is though what do you use to turn the cup?
You can buy a tumbler turner on amazon or any craft store
It’s a nerf football inside and idk whats continuously turning it
This is amazing & I'm just learning so I just want to say thank you!!! You mentioned wet sanding. What is that?
You sand, apply decal and then apply another coat of epoxy, right? I've seen people put their decal onto the glitter. I don't like how it looked especially when they didn't use extra fine glitter. their decal looked bumpy. Even if they did sand their glitter. I am about to build my turner. I got a silhouette cameo 4. I've got to learn how to use it, I've never used anything like it. Hehe I had to buy a laptop, I've not used a computer in years! When my laptop died I replaced it with an iPad. I've caught myself starting to reach toward the screen a time or two forgetting to use the touch pad!! 🤦 I've got 2 tumblers, a stainless steel thermos and 2 water bottles glittered waiting to get their first layer of epoxy. if you hand turn, how long do you turn? I've got lots of pvc pipe scrap and boxes. I could make a hand turning apparatusfairly easily so I could get some of these turned pretty quickly and not wait and do them one at a time over a week.
Oh my goodness this is great!!! What do you use to spin the tumbler? Thank you for the video!!
Just the standard tumbler spinner
Hello, I like you job. How long do you wait until put the other layer of epoxy? Thank you
Soror thank you for the tutorial!!! Z-Phi
Thank you Soror!!!
Hi. This video is so helpful. Can you share what type of PPE you use. I am trying to find an affordable one or something that would work. I want to start doing these cups regularly but the right PPE is stopping me:/
Love your work How many ounces is the plastic cup and where can you get the tumblers at a discount price if you want to buy in bulk?
Love the video and product. Can you use a blow dryer if you don’t have a heat gun? And how long do you have to wait for the epoxy to dry before applying decal
Thank you! I think you can use a blow dryer you would just have to do more passes since its not as hot as a heat gun. Also I wait 24 hours to apply the decal.
Thank you for the video! What fo you use for the spinning gadget?
I go over that in this Q&A video ua-cam.com/video/aeo9g57pIkM/v-deo.html
Love the video can you do a video on sanding the tumbler?
Your video was very helpful. My question is, How do you wet sand?
Can you show us how to put on the stickers or are you using a circuit also are you using A blow dryer to get rid of the bubbles are the tool
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I loved how easy you made it look.
If you are only covering a vinyl decal, no glitter, would you still recommend two coats or will one suffice?
all depends on what that first layer looks like. you may not need it but try to work in thinner layers so it doesnt bulk up the cup too much
This was my exact question!
Could you use a hair dryer? And can you lay permanent vinyl on top of the exopy after it's dried
How long do you let the 2nd coat of glitter dry, before 1st layer of epoxy?
What process do you use instead of yet sanding?
After your second coat of glitter do you have to put anything before the epoxy?
Where did you get the spinner
Do you apply decal after sanding or do you sand, epoxy and then apply decal?
Where did you get your cup spinner from? Love your work
How do you make it not have dents after you apply the epoxy?
How do you keep the epoxy from going inside the cup or can it be removed if it goes in?
i am sorry if this was asked before but i did not read all the comments. what temp heat setting do you use on your heat gun? I have the same one from harbor frieght.
Did you glitter and epoxy all the way to the top or did you leave a lip? Thanks. Great video. I hope to try this soon when I have some time!!
All the way to the top
Where do you order your tumbler?
Very beginner friendly thank you. I am just curious how many cups can you epoxy with that one kit?
Depends on the size of the cup but multiple.
Very good video. I just start doing my first tumbler today so I have a question. Does it supposed to be sticky when you applied epoxy?
No after about 12 hours it shouldnt be sticky
I love this! But what is wet sanding? I’m lost on the second sanding part
Its a technique to remove rough patches of epoxy that i no longer use
Amazing! Do you have a video on how to wet sand a tumbler?
No i actually dont wet sand anymore...i stopped soon after i posted this video
Very pretty tumbler. I'd like to make my own. I'm wondering how you made out where you bought the turner? I really hate the idea of hand turning.
You can just pick one up online....dont pay more than $30 for a single cup
How many tumblers would you say you can cover with one bottle set of epoxy?
Did you do two layers of epoxy because of the glitter or would you do two layers regardless?
Great video. I want to try this. Did you use mod podge before you applied the glitter? I may have missed you saying that.
You usually sand the tumbler itself, apply a super thin layer of epoxy just so its tacky, then add glitter on top of that.
Awesome! Do you have to drill the inside of your tumbler when you’re done or does the drop and catch method prevent that. If so, GAME CHANGER!
oh yeah girl im not taking a drill to the inside...airplane off at that lip
What did you use for the spinning machine
Hi, this is a great video. I am going to try my 1st epoxy tumbler in a few days and I am going to follow both your videos to do it. Can you please tell me where you got your heat gun from? TIA
harbor freight
Thank you
Thanks for the tips. Can you use stickers?
Yes you can!
Where do you get the tumblers?
Wow! That came out amazing! When you say let it sit for 12 hours, do you mean up right or on the spinner?
well upside down. If i need the spinner, i will take it off and set it upside down on the counter if not i will just leave it on the spinner
Period Six Designs thank you!!!
I’ve already added my image and epoxied my cup can I add another image and epoxy again?
What are you using to make it spin
What is wet sanding/ dry sanding. I just saw the video. What did you use for sanding the cup? Do you have a video about the rotating tool thing you use?
I have a lengthy video coming today where I cover both of these topics....
I did a tumbler and there is a little tiny place on it that didn't get any epoxy and you can see down to the spray paint. Do I have to strip it or can I just put another coat on to cover that spot up? I sure hope it's possible because I hate the thought of stripping it. I'm a newbie to all this and want to make sure I do things right.
After the first coat of epoxy you let it dry then added the decal?
Your videos are great. I have been doing some tumblers using your methods. One problem I inconsistently have is that epoxy will build up in a spot on the bottom of the cup. Then when you stand the cup up, it isn’t straight and rocks. What am I doing wrong?????
in my experience its probably because your cup may be slightly tilted on the turner and you cant really tell
