    I'm working on a StayPuft Marshmallow costume- I didn't want one of those with the pumps that run continuously. I just need a light form to go over my head and shoulders. I thought of inflatables. Great video, I'm glad you posted it. I wish more makers would post their mis-steps. Often they are more helpful than "solutions".

    you are the coolest person ever! Love how you're combining physical computing with inflatables !!

    Hello Becky, look up a company called billboard tarps. They have the new vinyl fabric material that you want to use that HH-66 with. It is essentially pool vinyl. I use the 20 oz. white material as a waterproof roof covering material for many seasonal sunrooms at a coastal RV park. I am toying with the idea of making some home built, heavy duty swim rafts, and floats, unfortunately that HH-66 isn't cheap, but is sure does give an a nice, permanent, water proof, and air tight seal if done properly.

    I watched this video because I'm going to 3D print a catamaran that will carry me to work along the canal, while I drink coffee and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.. great vid 👌👍 thanks.. to save weight I wondered if it would be possible incorporate an inflatable seat into the supporting aluminium frame that will keep the boat/pontoons square.. I have to get the boat 300m from the canal to work on foot, so reducing the burden on my glass back is a bonus.. and it at least might slow my sink rate 😁

    A little soapy water spray can help locate leaks. Bubbles will pop up where the leak is.

    Hey Becky this is unique content! Very original and exactly what I was looking for, so I am so grateful you have done all the R&D for me already! I must say it did catch my attention that you are a woman. I love seeing female makers on CZcams at this level of engagement and sophistication. I must say I am quite curious about the place you are shooting this video from, is this a public makerspace? which one? is this TechShop before the bankruptcy? (still hurts that they went down)

      Thanks Orwa for the love. This was filmed in the shop at my grad school. Unfortunately they’ve since moved campuses and the incredible shopmaster who made this space so magical also retired. Long live Ed Koizumi!!

    Dish soap and water in a spray bottle Will help you find a leak. Plumbers used that trick To find gas leaks. Better yet, considering The project here, maybe a little spritzer bottle Would be sufficient

      @BeckyMarshallDesign  Před 2 lety

      I never got to test my prototyped inflatables on water so I can’t make any promises there, BUT with practice (aka after trying once or twice and failing, and getting better at bonding it…) and a perfect seal, I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t support a human in water. If you try it yourself, please come back and leave a comment!
