Ah, I missed the first batch! My fault, I get busy in summer. I bookmarked the page to keep an eye out for restocks, though!

I can tell craftsman is just so proud of what he's accomplished here. He's watching his dreams become reality. We're proud and excited with you craftsman!!!

Congrats, Crafsman! This was a mighty undertaking and I'm excited for the mission these 500 little guys are about to go on. Godspeed, Pocketnauts! P.S. Keep an eye on shop baby

One thing I REALLY like about this is how totally unique and not-at-all connected to anything the character is. It's just a randomly adorable Astronaut with interchangable faces. Can't wait for mine to arrive so I can just admire him. I may put one in a fishtank with a lazy bubbler behind him. Bravo, Crafsman!

Thank you so much! :D And hey, I wanted to mention - if you'd like an extra Pocketnaut for the fishtank, so you can keep your other one on land, email: sales@crafnation.com with the subject/message: "EXTRA POCKETNAUT FOR FISHTANK". We'll include an extra "b-grade" Pocketnaut. ;)

Pocketnaut has touched down in my studio and is the best toy I've played with in years.

WE'RE TOY MANUFACTURERS NOW! So exciting! Just placed my order for the second one down and third from the left at 13:28 ;)

Seriously, sometimes a 5 minute video can be a slog if it's boring. But this 16 minutes just flew by like it never happened! I had a smile on my face when you made your first press and the figure you drew up a couple of years ago (maybe not even that long ago) is now a reality, it's a dream come true. I'm happy for you, Crafsman!

You know. Not only do you have a fascinating interest in crafting but you also have a very strong film-makers taste in creative presentation to your videos too. Always a pleasure to watch.

Thank you for the heartening words. I'm grateful for your assistance+support and friendship. Truly. The Pocketnaut release feels surreal. ( Honestly did *not* want to sell out like that, but grateful that we're well past halfway back to that # already. ) Sure appreciate you, my friend!

STOKED for you! And for me, because I’ll be delighted to have mine on my desk and click his little faces in and out when I’m bored 😁 Sooooooo cool how things worked out with JohnSL and LNS! What a blessing!

Thank you for making this! (edit: Pulled a dad move and got one for my son. The dust mask/gloves stickers are for me!)

Such a cool toy! Loved the video too, In the Hall of the Mountain King throughout coming to a crescendo with a mountain of plastic - fantastic

Seeing the Pocketnaut start from concept to reality is truly satisfying. Congratulations, CrafsMan.

Seeing this process unfold made me smile. Thank you.

I'm so glad I wasn't asleep yet! Crafsman, your videos and your voice and your talent are always a treasure!

"Does a bear go, uh, shoppin in the woods?" Thanks, Crafsman! Needed that Friday giggle.

I love your content so much. I've been following you for years Crafsman, and not only has your editing quality skyrocketed and your projects become more involved, but you continue to be wholesome and a generous teacher in the world of crafting. much love ❤️

I love how you designed the face inserts so not only are they two sided, but you can spin the face from smile to frown, and so on.

That is incredidle, i love the pockeynaut. May his adventures never end!

How many years and your voice is still one of the most soothing on YT!

Just ordered myself some Pocketnauts for my niece and nephew, can't wait to watch that episode with them and get 2 Pocketnauts out of my pocket for them at the end! You rock Crafsman, as always! Thank you

It's always the best morning when there's a new Crafsman to watch!

Your DIY injection molding videos are what led me to your channel in the first place. I love all your videos, but it's great to see a new injection molding video. You very much deserve that new injection machine!

Thank you so much! It's reassuring to hear from someone who likes the injection molding videos in particular!

Also, that first run on the faces that didn't quite fill in, kinda looks like a character of its own. Like a siamese twin, stick figure emoji.

Like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife?

Almost all of the song is just sad coincidence and absurdly improbable. That is the most ironic thing about song is that it is almost completely lacking in irony other than in name. Still a good song. Edit: Soundgarden did "Spoonman" and that would have also been apt.

your eye for aesthetic is phenomenal

Your channel oozes with style man! Instantly fell in love with how you present your videos and hobby! Love it so much!

Crafsman! All of your lighting was perfect in this video. You can see the effort you put in

Ordered a Pocketnaut so fast!!!!! Finally will get to enjoy a piece of art from The Crafsman!!!

Crafsman your vids are my favorite thing to see pop up! My order is in!

Crafsman's toy production videos never disappoint.

So fun!! I love the music this time (as with everytime). It reminds me of "In the Hall of the Mountain King"! Thanks for entertaining and teaching thousands of people!!

Got my little buddy in mail today. Thanks. It been great watching your journey up to this point.

This is SO COOL!!! I've watched you evolve your process over a long period of time. This is incredible!

Not only do I get to enjoy watching craftsman work, but I also get to learn about manufacturing processes. Good thing, since I have a Production Engineering exam coming up. Perhaps, one day, the craftsman could do a video comparing various processes across shaping/forming/separating/joining.

The passion i feel here is insane, keep up the work

WOO! Pocketnaut! Ordered. ☺

Been watching for a long time… this is a beautiful moment! So happy for you!

It’s been a long journey, the products and the video are getting sooo polished it’s so inspiring!

everytime i watch your videos i get motivation to go do something, after watching this video i made a mold of a dinosaur toy and a space ship

Happy for you. Your hard work is paying off.

Crafsman, you deserve great success.

I had so much anticipation to seeing those faces SNAP into the body... and tell you what... it did NOT disappoint. CONGRATS! Looks amazing. I can't wait to get mine.

Please make more please. My mom loves your work.

I’ve had very similar dreams to the ones you express from the jump basically but have spent the last decade and a half struggling with and against myself. I started watching your channel round November/December and the fog started to clear and while I’m far from funk free, the content you share has had a huge impact on me earnestly restarting my journey to keep the dream alive and regardless of the outcome you have my eternal gratitude and I hope one day I can pay it back or pay it forward. Thank you crafsman -Nick surplus

Crafsman I want to say I'm so incredibly happy for you. I've been following you for so long, and I remember being stoked on being able to create some goofy little 3d printed molds, this just brings a smile to my face.

Got me one! I watch/listen to your videos while I paint miniatures and it makes for a relaxing, pleasant, and productive time. Can't wait to paint this lil guy!

Crafsman, I reallllly think you would love being a part of the EDC community!! (Every Day Carry). There are SO many makers of what a lot of us call “pocket art.” Like worry stones, fidgets, figured, etc! Even just to check it out, there’s some amazing art out there and I think it kind of fits the “pocket figures” you talk about!

Congratulations my fine felted friend! What an adventure from start to finish!

I love all your videos, but this one really stood out! THANK YOU. Now, my daughter is humming 'Hall of the Mountain King' while making breakfast! :D I can't wait to buy my own PocketNaut!!!

Oh had to order one, have been watching for years and was never able to get my hands on any of the previous figures (always sold out before I could order). Love watching the process. I'm giddy with delight!!

Mr. Crafsman, you have been MORE than a joy to watch all these years! I can't wait to get my hands on one of these! Thank you for sharing all the knowledge you have on creating and production!

I want the POCKETNAUT to have a snap on Santa hat because it felt like watching you on Christmas. I was so excited to see how everything came together.

Thats the cutest figure ever! I had to order one. Great video as always!

I made the mistake of liking the video as soon as it started and then I had nothing to do every other time I felt compelled to like it throughout the rest of the video. Putting that love here instead ❤❤❤❤❤

I loved little plastic figures that came in cereal boxes, like the Nabisco Martian that clipped to a spoon. (1960’s). Also liked the versions of “Hall of the Mountain King” you had played.

crafsman is life

Wow! You are a real encouragement to all who like to make toys!

Woohoo! Got me a pocketnaut! Been watching his development and am so excited he came to production fruition!

I'm so happy to see this working out for you Crafsman!! I'm sorry I had to jump off the patreon for a bit, I'll be back soon though! We started our own 3D printing business in Raleigh NC. Holler if you ever need something Crafsman. I'm gonna be reaching out to you soon for a big project I'm working on in 2024, I think you'd be the perfect person to help me produce a tie in item. Best of luck Crafsman and congrats on the new machine~ Be sure to tell Crafson and Crafsmama I said hi too, hoping they are doing great too~

I’m excited to think about what accessories might be developed for this gentleperson’s holy hands……💙

Hey CrafsMan, my stickers arrived today, the thank you note was a really nice touch. Also, awesome stickers!

I ordered two! One's gonna go on adventures with me and the other's going to chill on my desk in their cozy packaging

That LNS 300A is remarkably similar to the Buster Beagle Mk 3 pneumatic injection molding machine; which you can build yourself for 1/4 the cost and it has 50% more injection volume.

Keep on steady MASScraftin CrafsMan. Thank you for sharing with us. We love ya.

YEAH BUDDY! WHOO! So good, so satisfying. Great work and CONGRATS!

Please make more. I would love to have one. Two in fact. Maybe three. Mine to keep in the bag, one to give to my kid, and one to pimp out. Maybe four… I need one for my classroom.

Got mine in the mail last week! Cute, clever, and well-made. Indistinguishable from big-money toy company stuff in terms of quality. Now this little guy and his face friends are having adventures in a "pocketship."

Mine arrived today! He’s brilliant. Great video too.

Congratulations Craftman in making your own product.

I feel like this might be a great solution for making tabletop miniatures =D

Just when I'm wondering what's my old favourite Craftsman up to lately, KZread sends me this video. The only design adjustment I would make personally would be to add a small hole in the back of the head to reduce vacuum and allow the face to be pushed out if necessary.

There's something so nice about The Pocketnaut and whilst I really want one, I'm glad that five hundred people wanted a little dude to take on adventures, who can be happy when you're happy and sad when you're sad and annoyed when you're annoyed. Hopefully there's a restock soon!

Hell yeah! Arco Rogun robots in the intro! I only just got my hands on some. First time since i was 10 😅

The cool plastic toys at the beginning brought some great nostalgia back for me, I had the robot guys and the space men. Sometimes monopose is great because it makes your imagination fill in the rest of the story. Super excited about your new figures, and love following the process.

I never expected to see a Craftsman and JohnSL crossover! Awesome results! That machine looks sweet
