#resinart #experiment #balloon - Jak na to + styl
Thanks for stopping by, If you have time you can check out my new range of Eggs here www.etsy.com/shop/bensworx
Here is an idea,
Tied the ballon to a fish line and then use UV resin to "glue" the end of the fish line to the bottom of the container, and then fill the recipient with the resing, the balloon will float like and underwater mine but will not came all the way to the top since you have the fish line atached to the bottom of the recipient ,
i have seen you fighthing against a lot of materials that Float, so instead of try to sink them why not avoid floating or limit it :)
hope ihis can be usefull for you
Another idea, like how you injected the water but use mercury instead
I've never tried this, but what if you squeezed an orange peel to get some orange oil, put that in an empty pill capsule, put THAT inside the balloon, and then fill the balloon with water. Epoxy the balloon with a lower heat mix, and then when the capsule dissolves in the water (hopefully after the resin is cured) the orange oil will pop the balloon. I don't know the timing or the amount of oil you'd need to get from the orange. Just something I've heard of, that orange oil pops balloons.
I knew the salt would work!
Next time, let the balloon float on the top, and see if it ends up sinking.
Perhaps try putting epoxy resin in the ballons. That could keep the shape and have a similar density so it might stay centered easier!
Exactly what I was thinking.
I vote for sand. 😉
i was thinking the same or maybe put the epoxy resin in the ballon to give it a unique shape on its own
*so he must change the title from water balloon to resin balloon* 🥱
Resin and Water never mix, without possible “explosive” consequences. So Resin Balloons make much more sense in safety as well as density.
I think it’s not going to burst. BUT should have put dye in the balloons Ins case it does!
Use a smaller balloon with just a little bit of water and a much smaller resin pour. suspend the balloon from the bottom of the container with the fishing line so it looks like a balloon on a string. maybe even find a small hand from an action figure to be holding the string. just an idea
Sounds good I’ll give it a go 👍
@@BensWorx can’t wait to see this!
I recommend another suggestion I saw here, in concurrence with this one: fill the balloon with resin, and it should equalize pressure and cause it to float in the center without assistance.
I was thinking about other ways he could weigh the balloons down. Using string at the bottom to hold it is Genius!
@@BensWorx Thanks for doing this! Such an amazing thing to comment on a video and effect the content of an amazing channel!! It came out so good too!!!
I think something really cool would be if you put something in the water balloon so if the water balloon pops, you'll have floating items in the water that is incases in resin!
That was so cool. I love the look of the void, especially after you filled it with colored resin. Thanks for the extra video. Your tribe can never get tired of you!!
Thanks Ellis 😊
Two videos in one week! You are spoiling us Ben. 👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You guys deserve it 😊
Is there a reason you don’t put a small base layer, let dry, put balloon in, fill to top of balloon, let dry, then add a top layer if the balloon is poking out?
If you filled the void with red, it would have looked like an atom bomb explosion
7:20 "so I kinda feel I let you guys down a little bit" are you crazy? This was awesome!
Thanks Mate 😊
YAY for an extra video! I did see Nick’s video too. He’s such a cool dude. 🎈
Thanks Kate 😊 yes he is 👍
Yea im a big fan of both
I was just thinking that, “wow already a week?” Lol
Love the KISS shirt!! And obviously super stoked about the video!! Entertaining and educational!!
Thanks Roxanne 😊🤘
I am never let down when watching these video's. I enjoy seeing the fails
Ben, I didn't know you were part of the KISS army.
Peace.
Great Music 🎶
Kiss FOREVER and literally they sang a song called forever kiss is amazing 😎💪🏼🤙
I bet if you cover the balloon in something nonstick before you put it in the resin, you could get the balloon out of the resin and have just an empty void to fill instead of one with balloon bits in it.
The explosion from the balloon popping looked really cool! Looked a little like a mushroom cloud.
Yeah 👍
A bonus video! You're spoiling us Ben 😍
You guys deserve it 😊
Another great idea!
Thanks Mate
Love how your turning in to an Alchemist cool!!! This is definitely worth working on 👍 Thank you for the bonus vid.
Thanks Alison 😊👍
Everyone talking about the balloons
Me: HE HAS A KISS SHIRT 🤩
🤘😊
My first concert was at age 30. It was a KISS concert in Michigan. The sad part was how unenthusiastic the audience was. The band tried sooo hard to get people excited and it made me really respect them. Felt bad that they had such a dull audience.
@@Richard-Freeman Back in 77,78 Kiss and Nazareth were the first rock and roll bands I started to party to. A little smoke, a little booze . Detroit Rock City....Hair Of The Dog. I was 17.
you should try candle wax, a quick search says it will melt around the 50-70c and boil at 370c. And it has a density lighter than water so it would want to make its way up to the top, so i would suggest pouring some resin throwing the wax in, then covering it with more resin
It reminds me of a “captured explosion”.
Love the bonus video, cant wait to see what it becomes
Thanks Mark 😊
That came out so beautiful. I think it would look amazing placed over a light.
If you coated the water balloon with some of that UV resin, do you think it would keep the balloon intact and with the water still in it? Realize it would take a lot of time and UV resin, just curious.
It’s worth a try 👍
@@BensWorx lol that would be cool
Wow. I feel spoiled, another video this week!
Edit: I'd love to see you make a piece from this one... it looks like a moment frozen in time during a balloon bursting or getting shot with a pellet gun!
😊
You have the best epoxy channel on youtube 👍
Thankyou 😊
Awesome! It’s not so much a failure as a new way to try things. Thanks for the double feature this week and looking forward to what can come up with doing this method.
Thanks Randy 😊
A second episode! We must have been good. Awesome blank and dope shirt! 👨🎤
Thanks Joel 🤘
If it was me, I'd do a half measure of resin, let it cure, then put the water balloon on top with some superglue or some UV resin to stick the balloon to the cured layer. Another thing to consider might be freezing the balloon or giving it a full coating of UV resin to make it more durable and perhaps insulate from the heat of the rest of the resin.
Love the bonus videos mate 🤘
Thanks Mate 👍
It's pretty cool when you become recognised as one of the great makers on CZcams having people that have watched Nick and ask you to do the same thing
Thanks Andrew 😊 you guys are awesome!
A Ben and Nick Colab would be awesome =:0)
This one was a really suprise,loved the end result, I can imagine this a cool night light.
Thanks Scott 😊👍
Yay!!! No spoilers!! That made it much more fun for me to watch! Thanks!! 💚
That is wicked, I reckon it could turn into a very nice night light
Thanks Mike, yeah I think so 👍
Also love the bonus videos. You could make a hot air balloon one now
Thanks Mate, yeah that would be cool 👍
When you was trying to hold the ballon beneath the service. It looked like a westerner trying to eat a boiled egg at an Asian restaurant using chopsticks for the first time.
I like the result! Looks very very nice!! Love the structures!!
Thanks Mate
NO WAY!!!! THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!
Thanks Gina
I love it when you experiment with things! Keep it up man! All your videos and projects are amazing! God bless you and your family!
Prediction... Why not do a bottom layer, let it harden, make is slightly concave so the balloon sits in it, then second pour?
I always get happy when I see your notifications. I can't watch this just yet but I look forward to the free time when I can!
Thanks Mate 😊
Hi Ben! I just started this episode. I just have to say that I was going to ask you to try this exact experiment! I cannot believe it! We must be on the same wavelength! So cool, so cool! Now on to the show....
Great minds think alike 👍
the hero I didn't even know I needed, very interesting!
This experiment needs to be turned! Send it to Nick!
I think it came really cool looking! Can’t wait to see what else develops from it. 😃
Very Cool experiment Mr. Ben!! That was Awesome!!!
I'm loving the experiments!
You did not disappoint us!
Looks way cool.....love to see you turn it into something....Loving the bonus video's too !!
Thanks Jill 😊
I thought that was a funny coincidence that you and Nick both used balloons this week. Tis the season. Lol
👍
KISS Dynasty - What!? Your awesome taste in wearing apparel (and presumably music!) just earned you a subscriber. Well, really your entertaining channel content that CZcams was kind enough to recommend and I’ve been binging for the last hour or so had already sold me, but the KISS T-shirt sealed the deal. Rock on! 🤘 😂
Love these experiments you do. Also love the shirt
Thanks Kari 😊🤘
That was a lot of fun to watch!!! Thank you 😊
Thanks Cerise 😊
@@BensWorx you are welcome!
Thanks for the extra video! How about turning that into an egg for a giveaway? That would be gorgeous!
No worries mate, yeah I could do that 👍

Thanks Allan, yeah it surprised me 👍
Bonus vid! Such a cool idea and experiment 👍
Thanks Alex 😊
Unique piece for sure! I love what it did and what you did to fill in with blue. Thanks for sharing your amazing art 🤩💯👌

Yeah it does 👍 Thanks Mate 😊
Bonus!!! Thanks Ben!! Truly helps in my recovery!!
Thanks Stew, I hope you feel better soon
@@BensWorx Will do!
Completely unique love it
Thankyou 😊
That looks so cool! Absolutely loved the blue at the end!
Thankyou 😊
how about attaching fishing line to the bottom of the cup so that, when the balloon floats, it can only float half way?
Great idea
Another awesome video...great idea. Also love the Kiss shirt...one of my faves 😁👍
You need some of Nick's 'float to the bottom' magic 😆 How about pouring a few cm of resin in the bottom of the pot, and letting the balloon sit on the top of it with the knot at the bottom so it gets stuck in the resin? Then you could do another pour on top of it and the balloon would hopefully be held in place by the first pour.
That was very beautiful
I watched Nick's Friday night, it was cool and I do enjoy his videos, even the silly ones, but I do love watching your experiments 😁
Thanks Mate, yeah he’s cool 👍
Great project! I’ve been wanting to try this myself. Love the kiss shirt
that was so unexpected! the way the water balloon deformed was crazy
Yeah I didn’t expect it either 👍
Tie fishing line to the balloon and uv resin the end of the fishing line to the bottom of the container and pour the resin in. That might keep it in the middle and let you pressure pot it... maybe. Loving the mad scientist experiments!
👍 Thanks Mate
Enjoyed this video...always an adventure hanging out with you!🤠🤠🤠 Scented balloons never heard of them before!🎈🎈🎈 Plastic scented!🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Amanda 😊 I appreciate your support! Yeah me neither 😂
Very cool end result 👍🏻
Thanks Connie 😊
I think if you had used red or orange to dye the fill resin it would have looked like an explosion.
Wow that looks cool
Thanks Beth 😊
you just gave me an idea of doing a hot air balloon scene!!!! thanks for trying various ways to 'play' with resin!!! i have used a few of your 'experiments' with a bit of tweeking here and there with great results!!!
