Who else is preparing for the beach---->
ME ME Me ME, LOL Payton - where ya going?
Me
This video helped a lot! I live in Houston, Texas. I'm 12 years old and about to go to Florida. I want to build a huge sand castle with my family and I'm looking at videos on how to make them. This is a great video!
Angie Espinoza hey there Angie..where are you going in Florida?
Andy Hancock Destin and Panama City :D
Angie Espinoza hi there Angie..unfortunately the beach in Destin and Panama city can be very challenging..so try to find a spot with finer sand as it's very crunch over there and is nothing like Texas sand as it's quartz based
Um thanks for the bio?
angie espinoza I’m in Destin right now, every time a try to build it dries up in minutes
Like this guy, most sertainly a fun grandpa i imagine :)
This man is a hero
Thank you - if that means I can pass on something to help others then yes I am!! LOL Glad you are enjoying the channel, just pass it on - and where are you in the world? and do you have a beach?
Looking pretty fit, Andy!!!
I made two sandcastles this weekend! They were epic! Thanks to your awesome videos! Thank you for some much for helping me with my much needed stress relief from my stressful and hectic life currently. I’m in my on world when I’m doing this! 😁🏖 I’m 50 years and it’s great exercise for my body as well.
mee too!
Yes Amy - but where are the pictures? and yes - it is one of the greatest unknown stress relief tools available and I wish I could show more people - only way to do that is thru youtube - if you have any questions please ask
Sometimes it's not relaxing at all like when you're Rushing all the stuff out to the beach without enough arms to carry it, racing against the setting sun or the scorching sun, trying to erect it without my 2 year old clobbering it. I built one starting at 4am around Christmas time though, and that was relaxing
I just want to say your amazing, I love theses videos, Your sandcastles are amazing
I like your t shirt.looks very good
Thank you! we try to look and be professional and we also like to have fun and the shirt says that with We dont do Boring
@@SandcastleAndy that's awesome that shirt realy does suit you
Truly inspiring Andy, thanks for all the tips and lessons and instructions.
thank you - my pleasure - and if you are having fun - so am i!
That's so cool!!
Thanks Micah - glad you like them and thanks for subscribing! where are you in the world? also send me a picture of your beach to sandcastlelessons@gmail.com! keep watching as there are more videos on the way! Thanks Andy!
Love the last comment.."this ain't it chief" ...if this isn't it, then what is it? And more importantly - what is IT? LOL
i was legit waiting for a kid to come and kick the castle over like "fuck it i'm salvage"
Yep it does happen! but usually after everyone else has disappeared! People are definitely the biggest Sandcastle killers but we did have some guardian angels that day watching us just out of shot!!
so cool!! this was the first video I clicked on, ill be visiting south padre island next weekend :D
I’m a teenager going to the beach with my family of 10 and I plan on amazing my little siblings with an awesome sand castle my twin and I will make for them! This video is amazing thank you so much for this!
you can call me if you like - where are you going exactly 9564339948
When I watch the full video but forget that I live in a landlocked country
Dear Lord Earling - video being [produced to show you hpow to set up your own sandcastle area in your back yard! - first thing you have to do is test sand from a local Quarry where you have to ask for Sharp sand with no grit!
I'm looking forward to building a sandcastle and wonderful memories with my Grandson 💙
I'm so glad I found your video 🌊
Thank you so very much for sharing 🙂
Awesome! Thank you! good times and plenty of fun!
Hi Vincent - I bought mine privately - used tank liner but there is a company in Texas who sell it and will cut it to size...i dont have their name but i have seen their product at a comeptition and it was very very good
Nice ooooo
very nice
WD-40 is a petroleum distillate and has no fish oil in it. Thanks for the tips though. Will try another release agent. Maybe veg oil.
Yes, that comment was a long time ago but hey i have found that using veggie oil or olive oil in one spot for a few days does coat the sand and it does not work the same if repeated. The petroleum distillate spray we use now evaporates and dissipates leaving things uncontaminated - we currently use PB silicone spray
@@SandcastleAndy can you rephrase "using veggie oil or olive oil in one spot for a few days does coat the sand and does not work if repeated" does it make your bucket sticky? If so, that explains why my buckets (I used to use veggie oil on them" are so much harder to remove than yours despite giving them a liberal spray down with silicone spray lube
@@matthewmawson3706 Hi There.. how old are your buckets?
Where are your subscribers man you seriously deserve more acknowledgment
we are trying! more new vids on the way
impressive!

we love what we do - and apparently - so do our customers! THANK YOU
Wow so many helpful hints and techniques! Andy this is fantastic. Now if I can only magically get a full beach of south padre sand transported to Half Moon Bay. It looks so dreamy... (also, Gig ‘em!)
just gotta find the right sand that exists by you...Family Road TRip - also find yourself a geologist, helpful chaps
you'll find that they can access the mineral breakdowns of where we are and then may be able to suggest where similar properties exist near you - simple ! LOL - yes i meet a lot of fascinating people #wedontdoboring #howtobuildasandcastle
Nice job👍
Thank you so much sir.... I loved your work
Keep inspiring people 🤘🙏
Lots of love from India ❤
no worries Chandrika - It is my pleasure! I like to show people how creation can lead to happiness and that's easy on a great beach! - do you have a beach near you? if so where are you in India? I love being in Texas! and you are very welcome
Love your videos i
Thank you Evalyn..glad you are enjoying them..where are you on the planet?
thanks bro
I Made A Random Sand Castle Without Water And I Did With My Own Creativity. The Sand Had Water Already Because The Waves... They Were Tsunamis Last Month.
excellent - build in any weather! #wedontdoboring
Thanks for the reply Andy, (Ireland)
maybe a tad rocky - unless there be sand on the emerald isla
Fantastic tutorial.
Thank you! Cheers!
Where do u buy Rison barrier
WD-40 is petrolum oil. Try food-grade silicone spray instead.
thank you - i now use silicone but not food grade
Great advice! But I believe a true master builder only needs a bucket and spade!
Nic Mey yes they do..i think there are some in the video! We just use bigger ones!..great to hear from you..and where do you use your bucket and shovel?
Oh don't bother with little old me. The techniques I use only shy in comparison to the advice you mention. Keep up the good work!
Nic Mey I bother with evetyone..thats how we all learn! Collaboration is a strength, Not a weakness
Nic Mey yes, true..but how big are your buckets?
This rem8des me of a time that i made a huge sand city that had a iragation sytem i made out of drift wood and reeds
What kind of reeds? They grow at the beach? Was it a raised conveyance like a Roman aqueduct? Why does a city need an irrigation system? Decorative gardens? Urban agriculture?
Hey Andy! I used to work at the Pearl hotel as the kids camp manager and there was a point where I would go and visit you with the kids every day for a whole summer! My name is Ebony :) not quite sure if you remember. I remember I really got the hang of making these sand castles cause of you. Great memories :-)
sorry for missing this - yes you did - its not changed much except i'm not there any longer - work down by suntide III now - much better location so here a memory for ya instagram.com/reel/Cq61XXqOiMg/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Wow, a very fine work ethic. Is it also OK to just dig around a little bit with a plastic shovel and listen to the birdies? Just wonderin'.
of course, seagulls to keep you company and teal your cheetos ?- all good! LOL - its ok to do anything - you are on the beach
#wedontdoboring
My uncle just challenged my mom, dad, brothers, boyfriend, niece and nephew to a sand castle challenge......
When you said south Padre I was like "South Padre Texas?" Saw the Aggie buckets and said to myself "oh, yup, Texas!"
Gig em
Amazing thanks I tried this a camber sands🏅🤓
Awesome Job - and where is that? let me see pictures of your creation on sandcastlelessons on facebook our make a short video and send it to me via CZcams!! check out www.sandcastlelessons.com for ideas and tools! see you on the beach
Ok thanks for replying not sure I have a pic but thanks anyway I subscribed no liked and ringed the bell
And liked sorrry typo
I live in corpus when is the next time your going out to build a castle I would love to watch Blu
Port Aransas competition next April
I so enjoy All your videos. Thank you. I now always rewatch them and take notes before I go to Ocean City, MD. I've failed, but failure is often the first step in success, right? ;D I know the sand is able to take shapes because for as long as history can remember, sand scripture sculptures have been built there. After my beach failures, I tried building in our sandbox which has a fair amount of clay mixed in. I still failed. But I'm not giving up. It's still fun to try. Practice, practice, practice. Besides, I have always loved and wanted to visit castle ruins vs. fancy, gaudy castles. ;D Apparently, ruins are my style. Bahahaha. Happy Trails!
why dont you give me a call so I can try and find out whats happening to cause failures? 9564339948

thanks Surinder.! for watching and commenting! Check out www.sandcastlelessons.com for more things to see!
Where can I get all the tools if I do not live in America
hi Lego! we ship all over the world - what do you need and where are you?
How's the sand in halfmoon bay or Carmel California
its ok at carmel i think - never used it!
Andy that works perfectly but sadly my sandcastle collapsed due to the wave
nooooooooooooo
Confused how u got here but I love this stuff
Hey there everyone, you confused..how about me? Went ice carving in Finland and ended up on a beach in Texas! #gofigure #idontdoboring #TEXAS #SouthPadreIsland
This is amazing! I tried to make but after few minutes will be very dry and breaks easily. Maybe its too hot here and the sand is not so good for castles like that
Different sand takes different techniques. Finer sand is what'cha need, even a little clay can help. In NW Florida we find the best sand near the base of the dunes. Sand at the water's edge is generally more course and doesn't hold water. Have FUN!
Heat doesn't matter. Wind is the enemy when making sand castles. Sounds like your sand is no good. Here on the Great Lakes in Canada the sand is okay at one beach, 10 kms down the coast at a different beach it's no good. Sand that's round like marbles won't work
@@highstreetkillers4377 could it be that you live somewhere where there's more wind than heat. Does wind dry them pretty evenly, or is it much drier on the windy side of the castle? I never thought about the wind factor, but I am sure that the sunny side of the castle is much harder to carve here in the south of Thailand

My vacation house in.north carolina has very nice sand and i am glad to see you making tips for us I subscribed and will watch more
Hey, Spencer - Thank you for watching and using our ideas! How about sending me a picture of your beach and your castles - I would love to see them! Keep watching as we are making new content all the time! Check out the tools we have for sale on www.sandcastlelessons.com - they will help you too!
The WD-40 company says that their product does not contain any fish oil and to please stop considering their product as safe to eat/drink/dump in the ocean/nurse your child with because of some urban legend you read on Facebook.
I thought the same thing. LOL Yeah, I'm pretty sure WD-40 is NOT safe for the environment. Not that the minuscule amounts he's using will make much of an impact, but, still, on principle, he probably shouldn't be promoting that. Just sayin'
@@jacobgrantphotographywould those vegetable oil spray work?
Im going to gavaston today for my birthday
excellent - go get em! #wedontdoboring
and Happy Birthday!!!
And where do I get them
www.sandcastlelessons.com
Where do you get all that water?
ThatsMeSuperMan umm did you not see the ocean behind him🤨
I love that sand. What beach is it pls. And ur sand castles r amazingly interesting.
hey there! great that you found me on youtube!..we are on South Padre Island in Texas..the sandcastle capital of the world! checkbout our facebook page on facebook.com/sandcastlelessons
Where do u get such good sand
South Padre Island in South Texas..zip code is 78597....most of the South Texas coast is great as it contains a clay layer which helps as a binder..
its got silicate, clay , and is fine and sharp which means it can be very, very strong.
take a look at our trip advisor page to see what is achievable

hi Crystalclear! - you died!? - yes its a lot of work but worth it everytime! www.sandcastlelessons.com is where you will find everything you need
Andy Hancock lol u have no sense of humor
Ok
Hi Katie...thanks for the ok..! What would you like to see to make an AWESOME!..try looking up Alamo in sand on Google images...enjoy
.and THANK You
Will this work with any sand
hi Drawing with Sketch! - That's a great question - and it depends where you are in the USA or the world and what your sands base componant is. We have very fine river silt and clay in ours which makes it Awesome! but for example Floridas white sand is Quartz based and sometimes this works and in some locations it doesn't. lake sand is different again and the only thing i know that abosilutely doesnt work in Play sand - pure marbles! check out www.sandcastlelesons.com for more info about he sandcastle capital of the world - South Padre island!
Andy Hancock I am in Dubai and there are slot of rocks and shells in the beach so will it still work
Rock and shell doesn't help sand stick together.
i just wanna build a cool castle while in florida-
where are you going in Florida as sand there varies A LOT?
Amm where I can find a water?
The ocean?
we dont do straight, thats cos we dont do boring
Cool I'm the 50th comment
In the back
Oh nice. WD is just fish oil... I know where I'm getting my omega 3s from now on
wow really am gonna have to re make that video - if it still exists! but omega 3 with a bit of grit, stirred with a plastic straw - winner
@@SandcastleAndy sorry for the ball bustin, i got my buckets cut the same as u and my 2 boys watched the vids with me... its my youngests bday today and we are going big.. thanks for the tips and have a good day bro. You ever come to the NH-VT boarder u stay with us
@@Speak7s.Services-qq4cy hey there - no one is ball bustin dude as its my job and pleasure to help you - am planning a road trip maybe in your direction in the fall - will letcha know - email; me with your address and details
I highly doubt Wd-40 is just fish oil
its not
Who told you that about WD-40 I kind of doubt it I wouldn’t want to just sprayed in the ocean
Yes quinton agreed, we dont know whats in it except petroleum distillates - i dont use it any more as its price prohibitive but what about pam, olive oil or the others..all good if you have time to clean buckets

Hi John - We try to please! glad you enjoyed the videos!
john Milliken and there's more...to come
And there's more..vicar
wd40 has more then just fish oil in it... its like saying I drank a coke but i chased it with a straw berry so I am still eating "healthy".
Excellent.. video was made a while back.. its too expensive and I was incorrect in my guesswork
Must be a ATM university fan.
Err, ok, why Aggies fan?, but, yes they are in Texas and I know a few folks from ATM, TCU, UT AND TT
Lol someone is per possing
I wish u were in Ireland
Hey there Josie! I wish I was too! as my son was there the other day!! - but anyway, where is the nearest beach ? also have you watched the how to make a sphere video? I have found that making the ball with a small bucket wherever you are in the world is the best test of how good your sand is.
let me know how you get on and the sand shapers can be purchased though our site www.sandcastlelessons.com - happy stacking!
He looks like he is dancing ;-;
WD-40 is NOT made from fish oil, that’s a myth. Can you recommend something other than WD-40?
Yes pb blaster silicone spray...
wd40 is not only made of fish oil haha.
correct! #wedontdoboring
1:16 That’s Not How you do it Sir :/
Really? i thought it looked pretty good! LOL glad you enjoyed it!!! I try my best!! thanks for subscribing
Your welcome. My apologies XD
@@PaulaChanBun none needed.. i act this way most of the time!
WD40 is made of fish oil? U learn something everyday
no, it isn't but I thought mistakenly it was one of the "secret" ingredients but I am assured its not! - but I don't use it anymore I use Blaster silicon lube which has no smell and is more effective for what I do -Ancora Imparo
Dude - are you kidding? WD/40 is a petroleum distillate. NOT FISH OIL- look at the Hazardous materials handling sheet- no esta bien, amigo
W-D40 must’ve lied to you. That stuff is nasty smelling.
Hi L Collins - Yes it is - WD 40 have told me that their product contains no Fish oil only petroleum Distillates - but yes it still smells odd. I dont actually use it any more as i have found a much cheaper version called Blaster Pro...but i have used Canola oil, PAM, olive oil, and all manner of Teflon coatings..they all work so its up to you new videos are on the way so keep watching and thanks for the comment!
Ummmm, can you please be my dad?
