    I totally expected either an explosion in the hot resin, or when you were cutting in to them initially, but I wasn't expecting them to look like a candy dispenser! Another project that did not go as expected, but turned out awesome! The top and bottom were perfect! One day I'll own one of your fantastic eggs, been craving them for years because they're all so gorgeous too. And those new keyrings/pendants are pure magic! Well done, Ben.

I think you should do a mini series showing you making some of the dragon books, pendants, and eggs together, like maybe a collection of the three.

    My boss is a paint ball warrior. I think he would love this as much as I do. Love the channel. You even gave me some ideas for a few of my projects. But one idea no one could seem to do. I even left a comment on your channel. I made a three dimensional cast of a magnetic fields. I used a magnet and some iron ore. I slowly sprinkled the ore as the resin was heating up and at first it wasn’t working out. It was all just sinking down to the magnet. Then as the resin thickened it all started to stay on top. But then I just added all the iron ore that I had. Just when I thought it was a failure. The whole thing collapsed and as it was sinking it froze. This produce to me an amazing like filament structure that almost looks just like a prominence on the sun. Wish I could share a picture here! Keep up the good work and clean up that mess….lol

    Your experiments are always awesome to see! I think it would be neat if you made a clear tube for the lights, then you attached paintballs around it (using the UV resin) so it was only 1 layer thick. I think that would be an awesome lamp! But on a side note, I could listen to you talk all day! You have such a soothing voice!
