- Back again with another terrarium build! In this one I transform a regular hourglass into an awesome terrarium. This is something I've had planned for awhile, but I wasn't sure how to make it work. It ended up being more challenging than expected, but I'm pleased with the final results.

Been working on a few pretty involved projects and figured now was a good time to make this build happen... or so I thought until this one threw me for a loop. At first I wasn't sure if I could make it happen, but I persevered! Just keeping it real and showing that even I don't have 100% success all the time.

Hi
hi
the process was really interesting to watch man, thank you!
Thought I'd put this in the comments to help you out in the future.
Hole bits aren't very good for thin glass, it's better to use diamond burrs. Just trace out the hole you want and follow along it with the burr on low, medium speed. It'll take longer, but it's much easier and has a very high rate of success. Slow and steady is the best practice for thin glass. I've done it countless times and have had very few failures. You should use a continuous flow of water instead of the ring of putty. The putty and water method will let the water to get cloudy and make it hard to see what you're doing but the continuous flow of water will wash everything away and keep your work area visible as well. Either way you still need water as it'll keep the bit from biting too hard and keep it cool throughout the cut.
Anything glass
Tanner: I can make a terrarium
@LaumiRez that... Actually sounds like a cool idea! Lol maybe even a vivarium if it's a nice wooden box, given there's an animal that would like the pendulum in the environment lol
@LaumiRez funny 😂😂😂
1:16 reminds me of one of those "has this ever happened to you" infomercials
I thought the same!!
im still waiting for some "just slap some ficus pumila on that" merch!
This would be epic
...and a Bob Moss merch!
we need serpa squad merch!!!!
My dad just recently lost his fight with lung cancer, and in the couple weeks he was fighting it and pneumonia your videos have been an amazing help in keeping myself calm. Unfortunately he passed yesterday morning and I found myself here for your latest video. I just wanted to tell you thank you for making such relaxing videos, it's been a great way to stop thinking, learn something, and just let the body relax for a short while.
im sorry
I hope your healing journey has been going well 🤍
quarantine is just extended terrarium time
“Let’s get to work!” Gets me everytime 🙌
Right it’s like “yes let’s do this!!!!”
Moss terrarium + unusual shape + trials and errors = I love it!
Those black and white clips give this a real infomercial vibe 😂
Sooo,... with all those broken hour glasses you could say there was a lot of wasted time?
😂😂
DAD WHEN DID U GET A CZcams ACCOUNT
I remember binge watching this for literally 3 days straight and then I stopped. Im beginning to wonder why I actually stopped it’s so addicting 😂
Like cocopeat and moss though the terrarium, so are the days of our lives.
I was thinking the exact same thing!!
😂Man! 2 funny!
"until I accidently drop the glass on the floor" -me to my screen : "Oh Nooooo !!"
After seeing most of your builds Moss really just creates the best textures for micro builds and or Large terrariums I’ll make sure to incorporate more moss in my builds as there is such an abundance of it and most importantly it’s cheap or free!😄
You build terrariums too!? Let me know how it goes!
I have no discernible musical talent, but if I ever fulfill my dream of starting a Norwegian death metal band, I'm calling it "Sphagnum Moss".
This one was fun to watch and I love how they turned out. It’s a really cool concept, like time’s slowing down...
I died laughing after the one you dropped. 😂 That’s the kind of thing that happens to me all the time. You made it happen!
I also loved this video!
When you get no sleep, but at least you get to watch a new SeroaDesign video.
Yup!
I can’t wait to see an update on this one. The use of paracord and a wire is pretty inspiring for a few ideas I have!
I bet you wish there was such thing as an acrylic hourglass! Cool build!
IM SO EXCITED THAT YOU CHOSE ONE OF MY SUGGESTIONS! THIS IS A HUGE HONOR. I'm really Fangirling right now!!
Congratulations! Thant is really awesome!
Seems kinda narcissistic of you to assume he say your comment out of thousands and then did it when in the description it says he had this build planned for awhile just hadn’t gotten around to it yet… tanner is definitely the kind of person to give credit if this was someone else’s idea he saw in a comment which he did not. 👀👀
@@nevaeha4048 okay. Have a great day!
Teacher: the exam won't be that stressful.
The stress:
It's so interesting how everything is meticulously assembled, and how that makes the project real ^^
The beginning of this video is so 2020...you think you got it and BAM! Double hurricanes in the gulf heading towards us 😫
I think you should start an online store, these are amazing I'm sure with your amazing talent you could come up with a complete store.
Wow! Love that you’re not afraid to show your oopsies! Your intelligence and patience are off the chain! 👍
Once you’ve actually made terrariums in annoying vessels (with inconvenient tiny openings), you just KNOW how much of a headache this thing really had to have been. My fingers hurt just watching this,,
Who woulda thought a terrarium so simple and quaint could be much more difficult than many larger, more elaborate ones. Awesome one for sure Tanner
I really felt that when you said you dropped the first successful hourglass. I realised that you did someone's request too. 👍👍
I am glad you showed all your failed attempts, would be really fun to see what your next experimental build
I agree, the process is very essential to an entertaining build!
I was crossing my fingers after the 3rd hour glass. I'm glad you shower the mishaps because so many times we think it will go well. It definitely takes patients and you have a great deal of it. This is a great video.
Timeless
Yes!
That was absolutely awesome! Thank you for sharing!
Agreed - Tanner is part of my weekly routine now!
U just give me so much happiness that I don’t get on a day to day basis
100 % agreed - Tanner is part of my weekly routine now!
Something I love about your videos is that you do show the mistakes and the difficulty of some builds. This was so cool to watch and it's nice that you showed your struggles with it! It makes people who want to do this see how much work that goes into it.
Truly another amazing build from Tanner! 👍😘
Awesome how the moss looks like sand coming down!
I admire your persistence. I would have given up after the second hourglass.
Absolutely love that fantastic work !!!
I completely agree! He is so creative!
Great job Tanner ! A beautiful work of art !!! Thumbs up.
My goodness you are tenacious! and creative!
I like the larger one so much!!! The combined concept of Time & Plant is so good, that's nature.
Come for SerpaDesign artistry and keep coming back for Tanner's wise words and talent ❤️
My favorite one already!!! Imma get it tattooed!!!!
Tanner: *breaks hourglass*
*Stress intensifies*
Like I know you like doing everything on your own, but it'd be amazing if you did a collaboration with a wood worker and a glass blower. Showcasing your scape skills and their skills. I'd even think it'd be great for you to have a gallery your artistry is amazing.
Dude, I swear, every time you release a new terrarium build its even more BONKERS AWESOME than the last one!!!
gorgeous! your videos are so entertaining :)
I love your videos and moss is my favorite plant. Thank you for the awesome video!
I love moss too! Do you have a favorite type?
The hardest terrarium in this channel
Really cool idea!
Absolutely stunning
These are absolutely gorgeous!
Amazing! Your persistence definitely paid off... :)
Man i can just spend hours looking at this hourglasses.
Totally!!
@@nysart6582 yeah
You know what FAIL means? First Attempt In Learning. Remember: You never fail if you learn. Great job!
Showing the failures is incredibly motivating, thank you! Wonderful job!!
wow i love the concept! so creative
I agree - Tanner is super creative and always comes up with new cool and original ideas!
Very cool! You have the patience of a saint!
You should do a something that involves bamboo or even a bansai tree!!!! Love ur vidss💜
Love how you pulled these together!! These Tiny scapes are always an extra challenge
Very cool hourglass terrariums! Congrats on your eternal patience drilling the glass.
Omg it's so phenomenal love it
Agreed!
More patients than I! Love it!
Awesome work as always! Salute from Brazil.
The projects look awesome and I never would have even come close to coming up with something like this. I also love that you didn’t give up.👍
I agree - Tanner shows so much grit and always comes up with really creative ideas!
WOW!! Really cool build!!
@SerpaDesign, I find your work to result in some of the most beautiful creations. The incorporation of nature, craftsmanship, and art is superb. Please keep the inspiration flowing. Absolutely excellent!
Oh my god yes, my week has been made!
Tanner, I love that you show the trials, as well as the successes! I think that with a lot of videos, people think success happens on the first try. I love that you show us we need to persevere sometimes! 👍🔝
Loving this idea,thank you 🙏
Hey Sherpa you helped me find myself. :) thank you
Such an original idea, very inspiring. It looks amazing !
i love your videos, this is pure art
Looks amazing!!
I think it’s possible to put springtails in the hourglass terrarium. They’re hydrophobic and float on water. So if you put some springtails in a glass and pour water on top. Then take some tweezers and a portion of moss. Then use the moss as a life raft for the springtails. Then put said moss / life raft in the terrarium.
This looks sick!!
Amazing. Great concept
Serpa i dont know how u come up with these terrariums but i love them
3...*mash* 6 hours of glasses later...
Success! Very cool builds!✌
I agree - Tanner always puts out amazing builds
@@nysart6582 Yeah! His craft and originality is on point. Very articulate too. ✌😆
So wonderful. The process was really interesting to watch i think they are stunning
if you wanna make a hole in something round like a lightbulb or that hourglass, a really simple method is to tape some sand paper down and then rub the tip of your bulb on the sandpaper to wear it away at the end, leaving a perfectly round hole (and a sharp edge so be careful)
Serving some real life lessons and beauty in this video. Patience and perseverance
Tanner Serpa, The Hourglass's Nightmare
Don’t get me wrong, I love the simpler builds just as much but there’s just something about watching people overcome a challenge that I can’t peel my eyes off of! Love all your vids and always am looking forward to the next one
this is mad cool. Thanks for another amazing build, Tanner.
Soooo cool!
How's that desk of yours doing?
Dudeeeee.... this is so cool!!
another great video Tanner.
Good advice! Never give up 🙂
I'm not sure how realistic this is, but it'd be cool to see a terrarium in a gumball machine or some other large scale dispenser
You are a genius! ❤
Dude you are amazing I love your work you have got me wanting to plant my aquarium iv already put some Java fern in now trying to figure out what next keep up the great work
I love your channel
you are a GENIUS!!!
tanner !! you such an eye for detail !! have you considered designing tools specifically for terrariums !! ?? :()
Thankyou you do great job I have made some from your past project
For anyone who would like to try this without Tanner's amazing glass skills, there is such a thing as a refillable hourglass that can be opened on both sides.
Less than a minute, it hasn't even notified me yet
Wow, this is fun, being before the 1k views.
Make an enclosed jar with lichens that would be really cool!
A terrarium in an hour glass with plants that grew up to the top even though the small hole would be so cool. Like the opposite of sand falling down to tell time. Instead plants grow up to tell time
