I’ve never wanted to build a sand castle so bad
Destiny's DIY's well how far away is the beach?
Andy Hancock about three hours away :(
So where r u
Andy Hancock Pennsylvania
Lol I live in Colorado 😭
You make it look easy
HighStreet Killers hey there!..it is Easy!..if you use the tools..and practice..i have used tools all my life but I still had to learn the 3 basics wet sand, build it like a pyramid and most importantly work from the top down!..my mission is to try and introduce more people to the fun and art of sand so part of the delivery is to show that everything is possible..enjoy the videos..more on the way!
I wish i could send you pics, i've made 4 castles now.Each one better. I put too much texture so tomorrow i'm going to try again. Thanks for your help. Sandcastling is so much fun. I gotta find hand stackable sand. Please make a video of the different castle making types. I want to see drip castle please
Just going add that my 4th castle i did get a small tower on top and detailed it before lifting off my bucket form. Im on Lake Huron in Canada
HighStreet Killers cbc:: t
First weekend i havent gone castling at all. My neck and back have been killing me a week now, lol. I need to use a barrel like you or limit myself to 1 a week, haha. Its so much fun. Thanks for teaching me the basics.
I love your mentality about this activity and also spectators! You've earned yourself a subscriber!
Thank you! - we try to do our best to teach and laugh at the same time. This is a sim[ple thing that can show young people how the world works in all sorts of ways, something which is sadly lacking in my opinion in the digital age. My theory is if you can engage the mind to think a slightly different way it will open up more ideas across a wider range of subjects and make things a tad more interesting than 1+1!! hope you enjoy the new content coming soon
It’s satisfying when the water turns solid when sand added to it!❤️
Me and my dad always watch this we love it
We are huge fans, you are so talented
Glad you love the videos - got more on the way..and something new..
You're like the Bob Ross of Sand castle building
You are funny and FUN to watch. I am spellbound. ♥
thank you Angela - sorry for very tardy response - try this instagram.com/reel/Cq61XXqOiMg/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
I enjoy making a large sand couch for my group to sit on and enjoy the view. Would you maybe make a sand couch video? I'd be very excited to watch an expert like yourself. Thank you!
Windex hey there Windex! Couches are fun. Look up javiers birthday video where we built a monster!..you need a lot of shovels for that!
Andy Hancock thank you. But what is the video titled? I can't find it.
Love your videos. I have learned so much had to make a Sandcastle thank you
Hi again Aetila!..granite sand should be excellent but needs to be very very fine
This type of sand is sometimes called fines..if there is a lake and a river flows into it try to find the very fine sand along the top of the "beach" and use that..not the coarser or heavier stuff under it..time for a lake adventure!
This is my first time seeing your art I wish I can be like you and artist it's amazing what you do
Great job! I wonder how you make these aesthetic castles so beautiful! Keep going!
Great video
Thanks RJW..we try!..but it is the sublime skills of www.lewishancockfilms.com that really makes them good..check out the advanced lesson video!
thank you for share - i have new born baby - and this advices let us have fun playing with the sand - contratulations you are amazing! 😁☺
Glad it was helpful! we try to help families - even young ones have more fun together - that's why I do this! you are welcome
Good
Hi again..waaaay less cement powder start at five percent tgen at least you have a chance of carving it! #wedontdoboring
You are a pro at making sand castles 👌🖒
Mia Garcia Thanks Mia!..great to hear from you..actually, I just like to think I'm a pro at having fun! #wedontdoboring..check out our Instagram feed on www.sandcastlelessons.com
It was amazing
I want to try building a sand castle now
excellent news
Love your art work and video’s. I will be trying this Memorial Day weekend 2022 on Emerald Isle NC.
So satisfying
#satisfying #howtobuildasandcastle
This is every nerd on the beach
This guy should play minecraft
scyther gaming yah I’m sure u can do this in Minecraft
Down Bomb eventually u could
Down Bomb yeah
scyther gaming i bet he can build a huge mansion without help
jean garcia the Dino Hunter in 2 seconds
I like your art. Great imagination. You should add sponsors to the side of the castles for a fee .
Hey Jon - yes you are right but advertising is not allowed on the beach, and I create the videos to entertain myself and people who like what I do, - my tool sales help support my business and local businesses help in promoting me. People on the beach are kind too!
The sand castle looks great.
This is so satisfying
Any stories on random people just coming up and destroying it while your working?
only one 2 year old and his @#$%^& was glowing as he walked off the beach...dad was not impressed after telling him 100 times not to touch!
Repins Watson legais caraca
Repins Watson no but when I left to get something yea
Andy Hancock is there a vid of it
I hear kids and people joking about doing it. The funniest part is all the girls that stop and chat make other guys jealous and i hear and see them start trying to make a castle
This was satisfying
He is the Bob Ross of the ocean
That’s some good sand
So awasome
Why the hell did I watch this 😂
Shred 306 that’s what I’m wondering 😂
Shred 306 same I'm just bored
😂😂😂😂😂
Hey there, I think it's to satisfy that little part of your brain that wants to be on the beach!..
Don't be mean he worked hard on the castle
Love this guy
Wow that’s satisfying
I still don’t understand how an old man has this much knowledge about sand castles
Good question - I have a great habit of learning about the things that matter IN THE BIG PICTURE with a subject. (some people call it an obsession and say - why?, who cares?) but i wanted to know why my sandcastles can be built to 7ft and remain solid!
So my second rule, (after keep it simple stupid which does not apply!!LOL) is "if you don't know something - ask or get help from someone who does! - we all do this but my ability, developed over many, many years is to find THE person who can help me the most by sharing the nitty gritty details that build the big picture.
I want to ask the big questions and if you do that you get answers to all the small ones! My knowledges come from over 30 years of working alongside people in all sorts of industries - mainly outdoors, who were able to give me snippets of information that linked together like a honeycomb.
and, in a lot of cases crossed over across many subjects - like - earthmoving, drainage, farming, landscape design, landscape architecture, engineering, fabrication, wood working, housebuilding, and alongside this
I do have a nasty habit of looking for more uses for one single item that just what they were designed for - like Ceran wrap - amazing stuff, food, but then hurricane protection, securing abnormal loads to making sure that wooden boxes when used as HUGE forms for sandcastle competitions don't leak when you fill them with water!
so in answer to you question of half an hour ago - LOL I know so much because i ask questions on a massive array of subjects and want precise answers as to why they work - there is no substitute for experience, and the people around you have a wealth of it - you just have to ask the question - whether its perceived as stupid of not as this starts a communication trail that doesn't really end -
I have always been "locally famous" for this reason as i tend to learn from people directly around me. Some people want to share - and fully understand "when we Share, We grow, others don't - and that doesn't matter because the do's MASSIVELY OUTWEIGH THE DON'TS
I am also happy to learn, even when discovering i am wrong - which is most important - have a great day on the beach and keep watching!
I'm 35 and am hooked on castling. I'm getting really good. People laugh, I don't care, it's fun. And a sand castle is better than a sports car or puppy for meeting women. Keep on Castling Andy
I could imagine sandman doing this when he retires
That must be fun
Thank you sir
no worries Sumitra - where are you building sandcastles in the world?
Ayy Andy I’ve seen your work on the island a lot especially during sandcastle days!
This was just recommended, and I actually enjoyed watching this.

FORTNITE LOVER Thank you!
S. Padre is THE BEST sand for sand sculpture. This year - my team is going to be OFF THE HOOK!!!!
Nicely done my good sir. Enjoyed having you teach us here at Crystal Beach!
Hey Simon party of 4 (love the title!) It was a pleasure to teach and meet solo many great people on a new Texas beach!.And what did www.sandcastlelessons.com think of the sand at Crystal Beach? It gets an A. The sand had a fine broken shell layer which was a worry at first but turned out to be as strong as everything else .
Nice place, with the best supermarket greeter I have ever seen..Thank you to all concerned and a special mention must go to the shoveled who literally saved my day! See y'all next year! #alacartesolutions #ashoreventure #CrystalBeach #sand #castles #lessons
@@SandcastleAndy we had an absolute blast! And yes. The "Big Store" greeter LOVES people!! 😎
Can't wait to see you next year! And thanx for the complement! My bride takes credit for the name! 😁
We posted our video of y'all and our lesson! Hope you enjoy it! It was a bit windy. But I got some good footage!!

Is this a makeup tutorial for sand castles
XdroidGamer_ YT never quite heard it put like this!..but I suppose so!..
XdroidGamer_ YT of course..make up for sandcastles! Love it!
XdroidGamer_ YT uduudu
XdroidGamer_ YT ya ikr
I'm watching this video and told myself how did I get here
Wow how do you do this in like 10 mins? It take me the whole day to make something like that on the beach using one of those buckets that have a castle built in it!!!
I'm here because covid-19, beaches are open, I have no job and nothing better to do, except build sand castles.
except, build a sandcastle? - south padre island is a great place to do that!
@@SandcastleAndy Yes, except build sand castle.
@@AlexanderRodriguez-ni4kt Go build one where ever you are! - it makes for a great day to forget all your troubles and find a new passion! #wedontdoboring
How do you get your sand so firm in sticky almost like a clay here in Florida our sand is literally like playground sand even when it's wet it's not very sticky and it doesn't stay wet for long it just crumbles apart
I know right
it kinda sucks lol
@@jasperpetersen8241 u still awake
yes
@@jasperpetersen8241 do u play fortnite
An idea came to my mind is some one really can teach you how to make sand castles just for reason so I search on CZcams 🤣🤣and this I found 😬but I really appreciate this 👍
thank you!
Andy Hancock you are so nice! This makes me very happy!
Thank you..thats what makes this sooo much fun
And where in the world are you?
Wow.
Instructions unclear ended up making a rounded tower with two spherical base structures.
It is a common problem! LOL - try thinking about castles!
😂
Got any further mugen?
@@SandcastleAndy some seaweed just randomly washed up near the spherical base and things started to get kinda hairy.
Me and my big bro spent at least an hour making a sand castle just so my 4 year old sister can come knock it down
Good work
mmmm we have a cure for that..but hey thats what practice is for right? people are ALWAYS the biggest sandcastle killers - not the waves or the weather! #wedontdoboring
U are pro man
Hi andy
Lol "Oh I see their chatting. And they forgot to bring me a beer. I do mind. Oh well. Maybe next time." Haha how did I get here from Buzzfeed painting with period blood.
Why has this guy not became a meme yet
wow
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
I have one question. How do the Pros get that nice smooth surface appearance with sand sculpting?
Wow did you take something you do as a kid and make it into a living
This is so satisfying!❤️
Thanks for the help now I can beat my dad in the sand castle building contest for 2500 taka (about 30 ISH dollars)
excellent, remember keep it clean as dad will be rushing to beat you!!!
Another great video Andy!
What do I use to carve it
I was at padre for vak
With the way siege used to work in past eras, building a castle or fort on top of a cliff, actually made it a lot safer during wartime.
Thats why we put it on a base - not quite a cliff for directional defense though!
@@SandcastleAndy Can't beat south padre!
Oh crap , south padre island we live 30-45 minutes away which part of the island do you build on obviously on the beach side of the place but like the north , south ,middle etc
I'm always very hesitant to build things with sand. It's always been something I've been interested in. It's just where I live there are a lot of teenagers that love to kick them...
Okay, you it's crazzy? You it's good!
Thanks - i have been called that a few times in my career! #wedontdoboring
I saw u in real life you were i showing people your castle
Damn you are incredible!
How does it not crumble apart
This is the middle of winter, why the fuck am I looking at sand castle videos
because you wish you were here? winters av temp is 76 here so we dont quite have the same view of the word Winter! Thats why i dont live "up north" #wedontdoboring
how long have been doing sand castles? and i dont know why but i randomly watched this haha.
Hi Kaiken - great to hear from you!! Where are you? and to answer the question - about 18 yrs in sand and about 35 years as a professional artist - and you are right - nothing more fun that watching random on CZcams - was my content recommended? @sandcastletoday on Instagram too!
Are you in galveston or houston
Great video and awesome commentary!
Jason Anhorn thanks Jason...glad you enjoyed it..anything else you wanna see?
Hi Andy, I'm wanting to get into sand sculpting and I'm looking up info online. I've been snow and ice sculpting for about 15 years and I'm ready to work on sand sculpture in warm weather for once. I would like to go straight to competing if possible. Do you have suggestions how to get involved with sand sculpting competitions? Thanks, Jason jasonanhorn.com/snow-sculpting/
Jason Anhorn hi Jason..if you are experienced just go win a few amateur division comps and you will get invited to step up..unfirtunately there is no league or promotional system to jump right in unless you know another sandcastle "master" (as they like to be called!).. amateur comps don't pay anything..but get you seen..the best two comps to aim for are the north American championships aT ft Myers in Florida which is at thanksgiving time and sandfest at port Aransas in Texas..hope this helps..i don't do many competitions as I haven't got the time..hope this helps
Andy Hancock I live in Florida and a majority of the beaches I go to have WAY TOO MANY SHELLS. I'm assuming from your previous comment that Ft. Myers has good sand? Would appreciate your response. Thank you Andy. I subscribed.
Nice incredible
Jonathan Caceres thanks Jonathan..we do try to pass on what we know
Excellent tutorial, many thanks! I wish we had that kind of great quality sand here. (Sweden, Stockholm) We have sand allright but not that smooth that looks good och keeps a shape.
what about building sand? - it has to be angular (also known as "sharp"), not sub angular - I don't know how to explain that to a Swedish building sand supplier! but basically river sand with clay is good and any sharp sand without granules will do..just try to find that and let me know! - I will see if i can find someone who knows about Swedish sand for you. Keep trying as #wedontdoboring
Andy Hancock
Many thanks Andy for explaining the difference. I would call it some kind of quartz sand we used to have around these lakes, it's mostly grey granite sand. I'm very new to this stuff, only a few weeks ago I started to look closer to sand castle art, I love castles and I watch how easily one could work with high quality beach sand but our sand is totally different, not so nice and smooth.
It's pretty funny to think what sand you got there because that would cost hundreds of swedish crowns per kilo in the stores here, and you got millions of tons laying around there, for free, lol.
I have to examine closely what we have here so I subscribed. Many thanks for the info!
Andy Hancock
I was thinking about an idea. (I'm an assemblage artist, used to work with plaster cast, among others)
Since you create such wonderful castles it would be interesting to test if you could make some of them permanent, in a smaller format, at home or a secluded area. The idea is to mix in some cement into the sand (I don't know the ratio though) and form a castle, then let it dry (but it needs daily spraying of water during a week to avoid cracks) and see if it would stand permanently.
I don't know if the sand would keep it's smoothness after mixing with cement (say fifty fifty or much less cement) and if you could form it as usual, or it would retain hardness but I think it would be interesting if this would work somehow. I love when a great castle work is preserved. Here in Sweden we have endless amount of rocks, as it were a rock garden so I will try to make small stone plaster cast castles (if I can, I only tested with paper and it's great) and place them out as pixie castles hehe, making the environment into a magic place. Pity that I didn't think about it earlier, now I have to learn castle architecture from ground, but I catching up. Thanks for sharing your inspiring and beautiful art!
I remember when someone did sand Wonder Woman in the beach and we wanted to take picture and a random girl got mad she thought we were going to knock it down so we left came back and tackled it
Would you say all sand is the same? Or are there certain types of sand you want to look out for when wanting to sculpt?
Try this video and tool for testing the sand..if you can do this you are ready..try different locations on the beach - or even a quarry - building sand might work! czcams.com/video/VQ2ttWG_lcI/video.html
@@SandcastleAndy the rounding tool? Alright, thank you so much!
How do you get such a firm base that doesn’t crumble?
Hi Candy Flossy - awesome name btw - well when you put the first bit of sand in the bucket - 6-8 inches you pour water into the center of it then chop it up with a shovel or in smaller buckets, stir it round with your hand and while holding it smack the side of the bucket - sand will compact, expel the air and settle into a hard base, unless you are in navarre beach. also take out any shell sediment or whole shells when filing the bucket
where are you..in the world
How did u get the sand so stiff and high like that 🤔
Always use wet sand - sloppy wet - buildild it with a form (buckets trashcans) and like a pyramid, and always work from the top down using your tools - NOT your fingers
Bob Ross #2
How much water do you add to it? I can never get it right
Hi there Unicorn! - we mix sand and water till sloppy - molten in the bottom of the bucket then tap the sides to cause compaction, then add more water - and THEN ADD SAND TO WATER ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP - only way - where are you located?
@@SandcastleAndy right now im at ocean city Maryland, but i live in Scranton
@@maxi_patty Make a volcano on the beach fill it with water and start adding sand - send me a video of what happens and a close up of the sand. Have you got any sand shapers as they could help test your sand in minutes? watch video on making a ball - best way to see if the consistency is right and that there is no air in the sand. #wedontdoboring #GoSandNation
