    • @QIKUGAMES-QIKU
      @QIKUGAMES-QIKU Před 7 měsíci

      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

    • @QIKUGAMES-QIKU

  • @juliebaker6969
    @juliebaker6969 Před 7 měsíci +136

    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.

  • @BillDerr
    @BillDerr Před 7 měsíci +32

    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.

  • @WaxedMerkin
    @WaxedMerkin Před 7 měsíci +49

    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

  • @meleilers1975
    @meleilers1975 Před 7 měsíci +13

    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. 😊💜

    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

  • @krispykraken3198
    @krispykraken3198 Před 7 měsíci +1

    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.

  • @DancingHorseFarm1
    @DancingHorseFarm1 Před 7 měsíci +4

    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!

  • @Faesharlyn
    @Faesharlyn Před 7 měsíci +4

    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!

    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

  • @TheMissingSockz
    @TheMissingSockz Před 7 měsíci +2

    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.

    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!

    Black 3.0 inside of resin!!
    Hi Ben! I've watched your videos for a quite a while and absolutely love them.
    I know you have been really responsive to your follower's ideas/suggestions, so I thought I'd throw one in to the mix.
    I really love the pieces when you place a cube (rubiks or otherwise) inside of a sphere of resin. I think it would be incredibly cool if you tried putting a object (doesn't need to be a cube) that is entirely coated in Black 3.0, which is a paint that absorbs nearly all of the light that is incident upon it. Objects painted with this pigment appear nearly flat or two dimensional. I think this would look incredible inside of a resin sphere.
    Cheers from Canada!

  • @donaldallen9759
    @donaldallen9759 Před 7 měsíci +1

    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.

  • @hayleymariemills
    @hayleymariemills Před 7 měsíci +1

    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!

  • @lynn7049

  • @shaggy5777

    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.

  • @CatPawCreations
    @CatPawCreations Před 7 měsíci +1

    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!!

    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.

    Rays can go in tanks. There are salt water rays and fresh water rays. Actually quite common here in the states. Need a good size tank though and I am sure there are certain fish that work better with a ray than just any fish.

  • @MrGerhardGrobler

    i would like to see you use the new lets resin uv light that has a top and bottom then a clear try in the middle so it gets light from top and bottom. I think it will help your ice cube get harder faster.

  • @teewallace2112

  • @DysnomiaATX
    @DysnomiaATX Před 7 měsíci

    Stingy is my favorite for sure.
    I'm curious if you'd be able to boil the water in cubey. I suspect that it may be risky since it would increase the pressure in a closed container but I'm curious if we'd be able to see the water boiling inside the resin bubble. Don't do it if it can't be done safely but maybe this could be a future video 😀

    I like stingy! I'd like to see you make little turtles if they make turtle molds then you can put googly eyes on them!
