I said vinegar for the shell just as you did. I think they made it just like you do.
Just got my egg in the mail. Its stunning to look at. I love the way the colors shift. Beautiful work Mr. Ben.
nice, you are doing the trendy clickbait :D I just subbed to your channel a few weeks ago but after I saw this clickbait thumbnail I immediately unsubbed ,
good luck sir , ..
@@za88y you realise this was the point. Using a clickbait fake craft and running with it.
Egg shells are very porous, so I'm pretty sure that's why the little bit leaked out in the pressure pot. The membrane remaining in the shell or not, even hard boiled eggs are not actually smooth so this captures the correct texture perfectly. If you cast egg white resin in you could recreate a fake hard boiled egg which would be pretty amusing for a resin fake food project. Just do a light polish on the egg after and it might look pretty darn real
That turned out cool. Dissolving the egg shell was brilliant. Did anyone else notice that when it was finished, it looked like a snail was in there?
Dr. Ben with his gloves and syringe! Love it!
💖💖
Thanks Connie 😊 yeah it did look like a snail 👍

You could make a silicone mold of the egg, that way you could have more control of shape and design of the resting egg. Loved the video.
That's what I thought he would do. It's the first thing I thought of so if it was a success you could make more.
that's too easy....we want the hard n more complex way
Seriously that was way disgusting.
Or plastic eggs like you put candy in ? Just a thought. Maybe resin gets too hot ?
Orrrrrrr, tape up the bottom hole with painter's tape to seal it. No side holes, just use the hole at the top. Inject the resin in small batches of different colors and allow to cure & set before adding the next color.
What I really like about this is you're willing to go over all the mistakes that we could possibly make because I've never done this before and I would not know what to do so thank you for showing us about the egg mold and everything that we would need to know
I've been thinking about getting into resin projects myself. Love the combo with wood. Keep up the creativity my dude.
Thanks Mate
ya ive seen some really cool stuff done with wood and resin
@@BensWorx An Abortion metaphor
I am too I’m just confused about the amount of resin to mix with
@@brownsugar1958ful when mixing it usually says on the container how much of each part.
Here's my backseating thought: The clear resin is uneeded. If you start with the egg with a lot of holes drilled with them hot glued over as before, use a faster curing resin. Level the egg and inject the color on top of that current level. Let it get to the gel phase, re level, and inject again.... Actually, this sounds like fun. Might give it a go one day.
He didn't use fast curing resin because it heated up and melted the hot glie
@@BrookeRainbridge I'd love to find hot glie on the market🤣🤣 don't worry, my typing is atrocious too. It's bad when I'm talking to friends and I try to type fast.
@@BrookeRainbridge Ohhh right.... Maybe silicone then?... but it wouldn't cure in time.... Clearly the answer is more hot glue :).
Why do you have to use clear at all. I don’t know much about resin. I’ve played but what would happen if you just use all pigmented resin?
He gets more blending his way yours would look like a rainbow…..lame
Keep creating this awesome content please! It's very relaxing and cool to see your process during all this! Thank you for making your channel and the content on here. I'd love to see you come back to this eventually with some refinements but the end result of this one was definitely nice. The white gives it a good touch!
Beautiful work.
Also just want to say that the voice over work is excellent.
Perfectly clear and blended seamlessly.
Keep up the excellent work ^.^
and plus , your happy personality is so calming , and makes the hard work seem motivation
Your skills made that look way better than most people could achieve Ben. Think I prefer your dragon eggs 👍🏻
Another great video, my man! Appreciate how you just pump out quality works of art. Good job buddy! Hope the family is well
Gives a new meaning to dragon eggs. Nicely done Ben.
looks like they'd make a slick shift knob, despite it seeming like a lot more work.
definitely a clever pivot with the white vinegar.
thanks for another great video
My favorite part of your videos is the sped up stirring of the resin with a popsicle stick. It's such a satisfying sound.
Your eggs are absolutely gorgeous! The egg did turn out quite interesting. Always fun watching you try new ideas out. Have a wonderful weekend my friend.🌹
I think the colors gathered at the one end give it a very unique charming look! It reminds me of some glass marbles I loved playing with as a kid.
Ben always manages to make something so beautiful out of a bland thing an clear resin
Super neat, like a small cloud with a rainbow!
I love your attitude Ben! keep up the amazing work! I'll also be purchasing one of these eggs for my daughter!
Love the results! I think the end goal could be to make a realistic looking egg, yolk and all! Would take a lot of thoughtful planning & maybe not achievable, but fun to see how it would turn out
Nice result! I once cast molten lead in an eggshell; it worked pretty well.
Thoughts about this egg making resin experiment: why don’t you put resin in enough just to coat the egg shell and do another couple of layers to make sure you have the structure and then only add one colour and let it start setting on the angle you want it, and retilt for the next colour and etc? Once you’re done with the colours, just layer on the clear til it’s full? Definitely takes longer but higher chance of success? I don’t know 🤷♀️ I don’t do resin.
Use of vinegar, smart! 👍
I'm just starting resin but I love your idea. One to remember I think.
Nerdecrafter did this experiment once and she left the egg membrane inside the shell, which actually helped with removing the shell afterwards. It was easily scraped off afterwards.
Love this! Experiments in creativity are just the most awesome thing. Tanks for sharing
Just a thought, Use the bottom hole to put the resin in. That way you can hide imperfections with a stand or base. 2nd, You don't need the other holes. Use a longer needle and just work it around as you inject a little here and a little there. That would also make for a bit of stirring to get the colors to string out through the clear.
It's funny how sometimes our projects turn out better than what we expected them to look like when we started out. I love the way your egg turned out. It's perfect! 🩷🥚
Well executed experiment, Ben. I still like your egg creations the best, but your tests are always interesting and well executed.
The things you make are amazing such an imagination. If only I had the time and equipment. Keep making videos and I'll watching have a good one
👏 😮 Wow....you do some of the neatest projects! Just found your channel, subscribed & turned notifications on. Hope to see all that you do in future videos Ben.
It looks like a GIANT cat's eye marble!! Very interesting finish on it, I would say very successful first attempt. But it's Ben. We know he's gonna find a way to make it look UH-mazeballs
Thanks Brad 😊
I think it looks the best when you are holding it....turned out pretty cool....i watched the same video....had to comment " watched the hole video for the egg....gues what no egg"
Thanks for being a you tuber that comes up with the goods....cheers
Oh man! I feel you with the hot glue issue! I had an entire live edge table curing with a hot glue and plastic mold and I watched it as the hot glue got just a little bit too hot and ALL the resin started pouring out. Thankfully I was able to save it and it ended up looking amazing!
I was wondering if you could have just put it on the lathe and take the shell off that way? Might look pretty cool!
Thanks for the great video (as usual) Ben!
I love how it turned out!
Thankyou 😊
Yours are definitely better! But awesome video. Smooth thinking with the vinegar. Maybe the white spot is something to do with the calcium in the shell? No clue, but can't wait to see more!
Thanks Dillon 😊
I've seen nerde crafter try this as well she had similar results. She poured the colors in layers tho but it honestly turned out no better. The vinegar worked well other than time it looked so much easier.
I think hers turned out great for not being a professional.
I knew I'd seen that thumbnail somewhere and was racking my brain to try and remember who I'd seen try this before, than you for solving my crisis, lol
Looks like a marble! Cool stuff. Great video. Keep safe.
Hi ya Ben, i love this whole process and really love the outcome - its bespoke 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❣
Love how this video turn out projects like this are always fun
Thanks Mate
@@BensWorx still can't believe my short video of my Pokeball death-stars I made is now got 151 views I just wish I had a way to turn 1 into a gear shift knob but I don't have anything to attach it to.
I was going to try that ! Thanks for saving me all that work
Sweet, i was just thinking, i could do with a bit of ben's worx and boom, there you are!
Thanks Mate 😊
@@BensWorx you're one of about 6 or 7 channels that i search for and know what day their vids come out. You're my resin guy lol
You could use some electricians tape to cover the holes, it's like 1.5cm narrow and streches a bit, and doesn't melt like hot glue. That egg turned out nice, and perhaps you should wait between resin layers to harden before applying the next color. Cheers mate.
Yeah wow, that was super cool. Love the Saturday bens worx with coffee ☕️🥚
Cracking job there mate, what an eggcellent project.
wow I've never knew you could do that!!! awesome work!!
One thing I like is the fact you show the good with the bad. I’m learning
Really love the end result. Looks really nice sir.
What I appreciate about your channel is that you show the difficulties and failures too.
Hey Ben my friend! Look at you experimenting! I was so excited to watch this one. It was very intriguing. I love how it turned out. That's why experiments are so fun. You never know. Say hi to Nicole and Jake!
Hey Tracy, Thankyou! 😊 will do
That was a pretty cool egg-speriment 😁
Still very cool....👍
Thank you for sharing.....❤
So beautiful!!!
This is interesting! I wonder if you used a plastic Easter egg if it would work better?
That's why I came to the comments. I was wondering 🤔 the same thing.
Resin would melt it
You can also have more control over the size and shape of the holes in the egg by using a bit (I've found diamond tipped rotary bits work really well) and drilling by hand. It's less likely to break the eggshell.
Another amazing job mate 👍
this reminds me of alot of my lets try this resin fails,thank you for the chuckle and this is why i use molds :)
That's pretty cool, Ben!
Good job Ben i enjoyed it,keep it up mate.
Cool project, I'd love to see a revisit of this with you using different techniques.
I love when you do science experiments!!
I've used the plastic easter eggs that uou put little goodies in. Worked well.
Good stuff my man. Thanks
Looks super cool!
Applaud your valiant attempt. Not bad at all. You'll perfect it - I believe in you. 😊
Hey I think I heard a sequel's coming with trying to time out the resin! 😆 another great video!!
Fascinating! Tfs
I really liked the finished product! To me it looked like the beginning of a rainbow! Like the white was a cloud and the rainbow was sprouting out of it! 😎👍
🌈☁️🤔🤭 Another great job!
That turned out really cool.
Well that turned out nice, I often shop on Etsy and will check out your store.
Hey! Fun!!
You probably needed to have the egg propped on something to keep it spinning slowly so the colors would not settle.
i love these experiments!
Thanks Teri
Thank you for sharing with me so cool
I like it with the swirling pattern inside.
I say try it again! That was a cool project!
Pretty neat, Ben!
I actually saw the thumbnail get created. It is a pinecone in resin, poured in a square mold that was turned on a lathe. Considering that, you did a great job! 😊
Really interesting thanks for sharing
This is the first time I have seen you. I already subscribed. Looking forward to more videos!
I rather like what you did with the egg. It was interesting.
Fun project! Could be interesting work to perfect
Ooo! That's an interesting idea! Also, you could use UV resin instead of hot glue to seal the little holes in the egg. That way, it's less likely to melt once you pour resin into the egg shell.
Good thinking to get out the vinegar! 🤓 And the outcome was pretty cool. 😎 Most importantly though, thanks for the video. I've been having withdrawals. 😆
Thanks Julie-Ann 😊
It was so interesting to see the entire process and all the mistakes, because I learned a lot. Now this is surely a very difficult way to make a resin egg, as you get molds from Ali express for some few coins, but if that is what you have, I have these points to add:
Only poke one hole in the egg. Stir with a stick and suck the yolk out with a syringe or a special balloon you get around Easter that does the same job. Rinse afterwards.
Use a very thick and long needle, it won’t be so hard and you can add effects with the long needle as well.
Maybe stirring is an idea to get more effects as well.
Keep trying thats how you learn by not giving up and trying new techniques it's great for a first attempt
That is actually quite lovely
I am wondering about the extra-long setting time resin brand...I can't seem to find anything like that...also, I am so grateful that people are willing to try new things - keeps my art on the leading edge! Mahalo nui loa from Maui!
Now I have to watch this!!!
That’s awesome!!
Thankyou
Looks awesome 😎
Hi Ben! I really am going to buy one of your beautiful eggs one of these days!
Thanks Kate 😊
So pretty!
It looks good.
I have one of your blue/purple eggs, and it's absolutely gorgeous. Much nicer than the photos. I'll check out your Etsy shop - I think my son might like one.
Thankyou 😊
This is so neat!! I don’t want to try it but I’d love to buy one of those eggs!!
When you watched that video, you got eggcited at the start, but at the end you were eggsasperated.😂 Thanks for showing us how it can be done.
😂
Cool result
Thanks for your honesty. Good onya for persevering! Great to hear and Aussie voice on youtube too. I'm wondering if they used a egg-shaped silicone mould.
Cool! Looks like a jellyfish😊
That vinegar trick was pure bloody genius
I like your handmade dragon eggs better, but the results were interesting. I've seen another crafter to the same project but with a different method... don't remember what the results were though. She did make the top hole larger to pour the resin in though.
Was it NerdECrafter ? Ive seen her do it and get an agg out of it too.
Fun little projekt Ben.
@@maibritolsen Yes it was 😊
