#FleaCircus
I love this
You have some strange but cool hobbies
This is absolutely fantastic. I’m a retired master Magician and I absolutely love flea circuses
Thank you very much.
i am ready to welcome randi and her glorious army of robot overlords.
wherever he is, you make jim henson 's beard smile.
Coolness.
Thank you
To watch how you operate that table saw is scary as hell. I have been using power tools for many years, nearly lost a finger doing what you are doing, and since then, I have more respect for the tools.
You have more respect for tools huh? Not sure how you know that just because I "scare the hell out of you". That's not how that is quantified. I'm 49 years old, I've used saws since I was a child, I grew up with a table saw in the garage, I've worked in shops most of my life, I have owned my own shop most of my adult life, I'm willing to bet I have orders of magnitude more flight time on the table saw than you in my 30 plus years of experience, and I haven't even came close to loosing a finger. It doesn't sound like you have more respect, it sounds like I have more skill. And since I used to build sets and props for the movies, have credit on movies, can set there and point out "I built that... I built that... I built that".... And with all the stuff I have built and shipped all over the world... Go check my websites, facebook, etc... It's all documented... I'm going to go with skill. So when you have the pedigree I have, then you come tell me how much more "respect" you have. Until then I am just going to look at you as another one of those people I have seen with my own eyes hurt themselves with tools. I've had to rush people to the hospital and clean up bloody table saws before. I've seen a finger laying on a table saw before. Don't talk to me about respect.
@@RandiRain well replied. cheers to you! and your experience and skill is very apparent to one who has my passable skill with tools.
@@RandiRain there’s people that have been in the game for many years,doesn’t mean they’re any good. When you were operating the saw my first thought was “she could always put some gloves on” bc shit does happen regardless of how long you’ve been doing something anyone who’s done something of this nature can tell you that. Many people have credits to their names but what’s that mean when no one respects it.
@@Phatal001 - Gloves??? You've obviously never used a table saw before. Show me one person who uses gloves when operating a table saw.
@@RandiRain a simple search on CZcams will show you hundreds of people wearing gloves it’s common sense shit can happen the wood can pull or push and then next thing you know ur bleeding. This whole condescending thing is sad please try and be better.
That flea box alone would have been a popular item in the back of an old comic book.
That's true.
smart is the new perfect ten.
Great flea circus amazing
Thank you. Best flea circus ever created, and I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.
Why Friday is my favorite day. Randi's new video and the Mandalorian. The use of the iron in the resin was a super idea. Can't wait to see more of the build.
The build gets crazy. You'll like it.
You are a genius. Thank you.
Wow, thanks... But you would think I would have more money if I was a genius. I'm just clever.
I came for fleas but the build was excellent & interesting
Easily the best thing I ever built.
I really enjoy your creativity and techniques. Looks like you have done this a time or two. The craftiness is strong with you.
Thank you so much!
That is awesome and extremely clever
Thank you... It gets better too.
@@RandiRain I know. Im currently watching part 2
I remember being fascinated with flea circuses as a child too, I had no idea, but it sounded fun. You're very talented, great to watch
Thank you so much! That's what I want to create. Something that fascinates a child like mind.
@@RandiRain guess I'm still that child, can't wait to see this progress
@@RandiRain you are a big hit witrh my grandchildren... we like to watch randi do magic and fix toys.
That little box took so much effort, but it shows in the final result! Flea circus reminds me of 70's Sea Monkeys lol
This whole project has taken so much effort, but coming out good in the end.
That's Cute. 😉👍
Thanks 😆
@@RandiRain You're Welcome. Looking forward to seeing what's next. 😉👍
I like that the font on your patrons are getting smaller 👍
Yeah... Might have to add a third column.
@@RandiRain that is awesome !!!
Very cool, the movement of the "fleas" is really good. Depending on how close the audience gets to it, it might be good to get them a bit more consistent in their size and shape. Not sure how to do that, though...
No one gets that close or sees them for very long.
A funny and a great idea but watch out for the fleas
They're trained now.
@@RandiRain great job
I built a flea circus too but I couldn't find any fleas so I used dex mites(dust mites)instead,they are very hard to catch ,not because they move too quickly but because they are so fragile.
Wrong.. Wrong... Wrong... Wrong... You never use dust mites. Unless you can get your hands on some Brazilian reticulated dust mites. Those you can use, but your ordinary household dust mites... No, those won't work.
@@RandiRain it's all I could find .it's still fascinating to watch them ooch around doing stuff, most people have never even seen what a dust mite looks like and are horrified to discover that the little specks of dust on their shelves are actually moving around . Apparently they also live in our eyelashes and crawl around on our faces whial we sleep eating dead skin cells.
I will continue using them in my circus because the thought of an empty circus ring makes me feel sad.
Could you possibly give me the address of a supplier of the mites you mentioned that I may purchase some?
Thank you. Ps I think you are attractive
@@RandiRain i'd be super excited to see what you can do with tardigrades.
9waterbears)
@@RandiRain everyone i know who has worked with dust mites has always said they are divas and very hard to please. especially the reticulated brazilians. i guess they can be spirited. you'd of course know best.
I made and performed many f.c's. Yours will be fantastic no doubt!
As we go on... Let me know how mine differs and compares. I'm purposely not looking at any others for reference. Of course I've seen them in the past, but that's just a memory.
@@RandiRain will do. So exciting!
Nice aged look to your box. Noticed the magnet is a ring, so does this make it a flea ring circus instead of a three ring circus?
It will be a three ring circus, or a flea ring circus.
You really do magic with that table saw 😃
Well, wood working is where I started, and my first craft love.
Great video Randi!
Thank you.
Excellent video! The solution for the fleas was brilliant! I'm also sure this series is just something to show off your skill while you continue to draw up plans for your robot that performs magic. ;)
Haha who would have thought? 😃😃
Imagine that.
Cunning solution the magnet / ferrous, really effective
Thanks... And it only gets better.
We need Adam Savage to discover your channel.
That would be nice.
Not that I have any right to expect him not to, but Adam got political recently and it soured my view of him a little. However, Randi deserves exposure, so I agree! And I mean the good kind of exposure, not the, bad dream, oh-my-God-I-went-to-school-in-nothing-but-underwear exposure...
8 minutes into the video and I'm saying wait, the fleas aren't real?!
In the 50's they were real. But they were not animal fleas, they were human fleas:which are called scabies. Scabies are much larger. Please type in flea circus and search the videos on CZcams of old footage because they're SO INTERESTING TO WATCH! they had 2 fleas swordfighting and fleas that rode bicycles etc.
every time I glue something together it falls apart. Nice box though.
Well, that's not good, because that's what really holds stuff together. Nails are only there to hold it while the glue dries.
Hi Randi Rain, I was just wondering, where did you buy the magnetic ring from? I'm very interested in purchasing one
:-)
I think I got them from AliExpress a long time ago. But many magnet places sell them.
Cool, thanks, great to know
It probably looks far worse than it actually is, but your usage of the table saw gave me a little anxiety. Please be very careful with those Randi, they can bite before you know it :)
What you saw was an expert using the table saw. My fingers were no where near the blade and the locale of my fingers were known at all times.
@@RandiRain This is a sign that your subscriber count is going up. The safety Sallys start showing up.
There's going to be a saw based jump-scare, I can feel it.
@@DallasPuppetTheater Tempting but no.
@@RandiRain oh please scare us!!
ummm safety when using the saw?
Have you used a table saw for 30 years? If you have, you would know that my fingers weren't anywhere near the blade and everything was done correctly.
@@RandiRain why risk your fingers though? 3 cm from the blade might not be near, but it takes a split second of loss of attention to get them near :/
She still has all of her fingers. Any misbehaving ones would have been long gone by now.
@@RandiRain i kinda have and can recognize the skillz. brava.
@@quintessenceSL lol misbehaving fingers. you might have named a pretty cool magic trick. i know of a very lovely lass who could think of that trick.
No real fleas. I don't like fleas. In the early 80s my parents rented a summer house for a week, we weren't alone... there were a lot of fleas. They will bite you if there are no dogs around. good times. Magnetic fleas.. much better!
But lets pretend they're real.
Will you make my coffin?
Not if you're in a rush. I'm busy. So don't die just yet.
@@RandiRain LOL!
Aren't you scared to getting yourself and housing infested? I admire your art and craft, but it dazzles me that you are not scared of infestation....
oh, they are not real...okay
Ha! Yeah, it's a very old classic of magic, and I made the greatest one ever.
