The fun for me is seeing what you have found to put in resin and that you are not afraid to think outside the box, and that you make dragon eggs is another thing that makes me love your work ❤

Thanks Phoebe, I really appreciate it 😊
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.
Those two endcaps were beautiful. Worth a project all of their own!

I absolutely love this project. I know the paintballs didn't mely much, but the ones that did were really cool! I also love the new addition of the pendants to your store collection! 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 8 year old nephew absolutely loves your channel! Thanks for the great content!
That turned out really cool! I was surprised that the paint balls didn't burst. The blanks were awesome! Purple is my favorite color, so anything with purple I usually love!!

Absolutely love this idea! You should do this with gumballs! Would be really interesting how the sugar and the hollowness would react. Love videos!
I was convinced they would all melt. My daughter now wants me to make her one! We love watching all your videos together.
The texture in the final result is pretty neat. I didn't expect to see those little bumps. Beautiful job as always!

That turned out much better than I thought it would, and it’s a shame more of them didn’t pop.
Once the weather warms up here I really want to start experimenting with resin projects myself! You're an inspiration as always been!

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
That is a cool lamp and the bases are way better than I thought they would be, I imagined what a room would look like with all your lamps on at once, a great night time display. I checked out the portals earlier and noticed a Rubik Cube Ball has sold, I think the ball is the best resin illusion ever👍 Thank you :)

Thanks Alison, yeah the cubes look awesome 👍
I definitely thought the heat was going to make more leak or explode. Really awesome job! I'm always amazed at how great all your projects look and how much care you put into them!
thank you for helping calm my anxiety tonight and helping me sleep
My 3yr old grand daughter was enthralled with this the entire time!!! She kept saying "they not popping!!!" She loved that it lit up at the end😂
Great work as always Ben. I love that you experiment and keep pushing what will work (or not work) with resin casting, and how long various “mediums” will last with resin (smoke, food, animals). I tune in each time to see what you’re gonna try next.
I was expecting every ball to melt but with the light on the effect is even better than that! It looks like little candy balls trying to get out and melt, the pieces with the new colors are amazing. Cool light as always ❤

I love watching all your projects. My son and I love watching them together, he has just turned 7 years of age and he is always experimenting with wood because of you. Thank you 😊 12:13
I thought that they were going to melt more. I am grateful to watch your videos and the things that you make. Everything you’ve ever made is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing and for giving me the inspiration to do Lathe work.
thought that was going to be a much bigger mess than it turned out. yet another incredible project turned out.
This was not near as messy as I thought it was going to be. I think you got off easy. LOL IT turned out real cool though. I especially love the end pieces you attached the LEDs to. The designs in those were WILD!

Bob Ross of resin and lathes. Just pure positive energy
It's awesome you sell what you make. I love what you make! It's so nice to see handmade items and no one item is the same. The vibrant colors are so beautiful. Great worx!
It looks like some of the outer paintballs were popping out a bit in the final shot, sort of like they had a pimple 😄 was that due to the force from turning it or were they like that before you put it on the lathe?
@BensWorx

Yeah after it spun up on the lathe they started to pop out
I love the depth of colour when the lights are on. Fantastic. Thank you.
That reveal was amazing!! I think I'm most impressed by the blank on top - the black with pink/purple/spearmint marbling was gorgeous
The purple blanks are so wonderful! Genuinely gasped on the reveal!
I love it when you use the old pressure pot. I get to see my sticker. Thanks 😊

Without trying you created the perfect display for a sweet shop .
I love watching these odd"ball" projects! They always look interesting and different
That turned out way better than I thought it would! That would be a very cool night light for a child's bedroom.
Awesome Ben! My two oldest kids and I love watching your stuff.
Your imagination and then what things you are able create are amazing.
I really enjoy your positivity. Thank you for helping me.
I have no clue why more people aren't subscribed to you. I love watching this stuff.
What I love most of your stuff is it’s different!
It’s always a fun time seeing what new things you put in resin and make stuff out of haha. Good times.
will not lie....i found the music kind of relaxing during the turning, and love the outcome, love how nice the spearmint and cotton candy turned out on their own
Those pendants look unfathomably beautiful
I love the new keychains and the paintballs worked better than I thought they would.
All the items in your dragon collection are absolutely gorgeous, love them
Your videos are always a pleasure to watch! I like how you're not afraid to think outside the box!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THE PAINTBALL LAMP!!!!!!!
Absolutely love this project Ben. I wouldn't even have been mad if more of them popped, creating a sort of swirly paint around the balls. Looks great!
so cool! I see a portrait of a woman in the blank on top. the effect is so fun!
Don't know what I like better your experiments or just the work itself but love when your turn them together. lol great job
One of your coolest projects yet. Your finish work is top notch.
Love that cotton candy shade - am off to buy some, and your eggs are so adorable so thanks for the opportunity :) Keep doing what you do because it's awesome :)

Cool result! My 6 year old was very impressed with the colours for the end pieces, her favorite colors are pink and purple too. Mine is mint, so your choice of colors was perfect 😄
I loved the effect the colours made on the top and bottom blanks. Beautiful!
It looks like a bubble gum machine! Love it! ❤ My hubby likes watching the experiments! Thank you
That looks awesome! The hot resin did change the shape of the paintballs and the lights really made it look insane!
Cool looking lamp, and the keychains look awesome too
I really didn't expect the paint balls to expand. Also expected more mess! Surprised. Love it when you make lamps!
I was expecting at least 40% of the paintballs to melt and drips down the side thus making a “mess” inside the epoxy. I am impressed that a few exploded and melt but only a little. It didn’t ruin the beauty of the view! I love the result and those dragon eggs are pretty!❤
They definitely look like candy! Perfect for Easter. Paint balls are stronger than I thought they'd be.
Great lamp! and the light is brighter then I thought it would be
The Master of inadvisable resin projects.
It is amazing how you can turn something meant for sport into a beautiful lighting fixture. Your imagination is wonderful and entertaining. :)
Absolutely brilliant. I was expecting them to explode & make a real mess. Keep experimenting, fantastic to watch.
Stunning looking. It’s amazing how different something looks with a bit of lighting.
Lovely lighting and shadow. This makes a great mood light.
Those portal charms are epic! What a cool design
This turned out incredible. Great job. That’s very nice of you give away some of your eggs. They are very beautiful as well.
I think the top/bottom blanks were almost cooler than the actual project. very nice!
Wow! What a fantastic project. That’s something special. Great job.
My kids loved the video! They really laughed when you showed the streak of paint on your mask!
Thanks for your videos Ben, it's great to be able to relax and watch you turn random products in to amazing projects. Keep up the content can't wait for the next random resin combo.
Can't believe I say this, but I really love the blancs more than the paintballs. The way the black is waved in the purple is just stunning😁
Absolutely amazing! I love the top and bottom! My favorite plots all mixed into one! 💜
Great project. I really love the top and the bottom. They look as if the colours would make great eggs, pendants and key rings
Hi Ben. I’m binge watching all my favourite KZreadrs while I’m recovering from COVID. Your work is beautiful as always. Thanks for sharing!
woah the light shone through much more than i thought, it actually looks so aesthetically pleasing! :D
The light turned out very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for showing us your work! You’re amazing!
I truly thought they were going to melt, it turned out amazing anyway! Love your work Ben! 🥰
Really cool! It amazes me how you come up with, "new resin adventures," every week! 😮😃👍
I'm so glad I came back to this channel. Your videos are so relaxing.
Definitely the right decision to leave the balls as they were. When you started out I couldn't think how you would be able to do anything without paint spraying everywhere. Still a cool project at the end without the messs!
I never would have guessed it would turn out that awesome!
This looks awesome! My kids and I love watching your videos!
I was shocked the paintballs didn’t explode! Great job!
Another great video ❤ As usual your experiments - turn into ART👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Absolutely stunning!!! The resin colors in the base and top are gorgeous!!
Another master work! I fully expected those paint balls to melt all over the place!
Very impressed. I was expecting the heat of it to burst all or most of the balls and it to end up as a muddied up messed up blob. Love it.
It's super amazing the things that can be done with a little bit of resin and paintballs
Everyso often i come back to your channel just to relax and watch some art being made love it!
Really cool I Especially like the end caps. And it really transmits more light than I thought it would
Very nice! I can’t imagine the paint spinning out all over the shop!
That looks so cool! I thought there would be a lot more melting than there was. You never know what things are going to do. The top and bottom look really amazing! I love those colors together!
I absolutely LOVE the bubblegum pink! The finished project looks neat. Hello from Pennsylvania, USA.
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!
The blanks turned out amazing.
What a wonderful, creative piece. Makes me feel happy to watch. Thanks for posting
