As a occult practitioner I tell you that as much work you put into your magical props they have a part of your spirit in them. Sounds whacky I know but when you work hard and with dedication on an item you empower it now you just need to present them to the elements and ask that they be imbued with their energies. It's really that simple. (Obviously it's a little more in-depth.) Again hopefully that bit of occult knowledge doesn't freak anyone out lol

It also would be a cool long term project to make wands for all types of magical damage in DnD. You already have fire and lightning ones

@@SkillTree idk much about DND, but an "acid" damaged wand would be neat, especially if it's got real acid burns (assuming that can be done safely)

As a wand maker, I am incredibly impressed with your wand. The resin was a very good idea.

These videos are why the internet was invented! Top notch, good sir!

Okay that wand is freaking amazing! I've always been more partial to Fel Green, like from World of Warcraft. But that arcane blue is amazing!

You're so enthusiastic that it makes me feel like I can make anything XD

You absolutely can!

Magic mirror tricks! Will have to try that.

Until watching this video I was determined to make some of my own wands out of only natural materials….. good sir you have changed me 😁 The way you incorporate the UV resin with the piece of wood from your garden is so inspiring!! Let the imperfections become the character!! Awesome videos as always, slowly making my way through your catalogue!

You always get soooooo excited when you build something new. It's what draws me back.

Wood workers, "That is supposed to...." Joker, It's all part of the plan."

Itching to try this, it looks more doable to me than using a lathe, especially since I don't own a lathe. Or a bandsaw, but I do have a jigsaw and belt sander! It's nice to see someone making the things I would like to make, using tools I have.

@@SkillTree I had a lot of fun doing this a while back. I'm getting ready to do this again.

It's looks absolutely BEAU-TI-FUL!!!! Such a nice addition to your Mage

Plot twist the legendary mage who gave her life to defeat the dark one is the war mage's great grandmother and he has reforged her wand to put a stop to his former friend the Corrupted Druid

Now I want to make one like it! Great project, so many cool techniques (especially the UV resin which I have quite a bit standing around, but never thought of in this context!). Thanks for sharing!

I made a little wand when I got into Harry Potter that I later burned it using my Zippo the lore behind it is that I carved it as a training wand to help me learn magic but now it's burned out you could use it to cast spells but would most likely blow up and is put on display for the memory and my days as a novice mage.

Very cool! Keep leveling up your spell casting abilities!

The electrician in me wants to hollow out the wand handle, slip a white LED into the main resin block, add a thumb button, some LiPo batteries... you know.

That's a DOPE idea. Love that.

Hey I think I'm going to make this for my sorcerer friend in dnd.

That came out beautifully!

Omg, back story is awesome! this mage would be an awesome larp character.

further idea. Drill a hole into the base and down the length of the shaft. When you're pouring resin, fill it all except the handle. There, put one of the balloon-lights from your potion build and cover it with saran wrap. Then, when it's all cured, it will create a pathway for the light to travel the entire wand. You can strap the balloon light into place in the handle with a small leather strap. On-off at will, and your center piece will absolutely light up, as well as that tip. And still glow with magic at night. To cure the inside, you may either need to completely split it (not ideal I know but if done right would add more "explosion" character), use a different resin for the channels that's clear (probably the best bet so as to not loose light in the color), or figure out how to get UV to penetrate the length (no clue). Really fun build.

I think the War Mage should have a Raven familiar with glowing blue lightning eyes...that may or may not be a sentient biomechanical automaton...

Sweet wand 👌🏼 I love the details

Great work, Sir!

That wand is AMAZING. And it glows. Again love the enthusiasm of what it is made of u make wood and resin and leather and wire sound like the best thing in the world 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. Your imagination is amazing u make up a story for everything and sounds like a real fantasy story

Thank you for the video! Is it possible to get a list of tools, or products you used for your projects in the description or comments? The video was very informative, but I think that would be a very useful addition! Thank you for the in depth instruction!

Still waiting for a cod piece tutorial! It would be hot and fun (just an idea… a great one… you should totally make it a video)

You should make dragoon scale armor and a flail like from castelvanya

This is so dope! Alternativly, you can turn thing thing (in process of making it ofc) into an aquatic wand, with light blue resin and some seashells in the resin part :D

Kind of needed your goofiness today dude. Thanks.

This is like Narcil as a wand. It was broken and then rebuilt with some sort of powerful magic. It's even wielded by a rogue wanderer

That is awsome man I might give it a shot but a bigger scale maybe a staff

I think this is my favorite think that you make

you deserve way more subs

Another epic build killer wand

Have you ever thought of inlaying an led bulb before the resin? You could set the + for your palm and the - for a location fir your index finger to activate

Would the resin stick to the wood if it was sanded smooth, or would the wood need to be rough for the resin to grip?

I absolutely need the pattern for that war mage hood! 😧

Charge it under you UV light man! It would glow so hard

I love the wand. I think I got some details mixed up. What made The wand legendary. I guess what I'm saying is which part of that build was the wand and which part was the repair of the wand?

It would be awesome if you forged a sword that will burst into flames at the push of a button🔥🔥🔥🔥 maybe you could take a look at the flaming wand and its mechanism

That WOULD be awesome! I shall add it to the LIST

There would (wood) have been a lot less work if you would've sourced stick which a vine grew in it. I have several twisted sticks and a few staves.

The only one thing i would of liked you to of added to this is some form of LED light/s to really make the resin pop.... how you could of did that i have no idea lol but i guess thats advanced class

Like youre vibes😊

I totally want to try this but with LEDs inside the resin

You should do War Mage robes War Mage spellbook and War Mage shield cus I'm imaging the War Mage walking onto the battlefield with a wand and shield casting lighting and shield spells

Is the resin strong? Like if you swing it hard to cast a spell would it snap.

I love your mini belt sander what brand is it?

Yay New England!

what was the background music for the first half of the video?

I've never done it with wood but I have buried LED's inside resin with the wires coming out the end to make a fish tank decoration that could light up. I don't see why you couldn't fit it onto a wand or staff or something...

Who would've thought wanting to LARP would teach me actual life skills?

I attempted this with very minimal wood carving experience and zero resin experience. It went horribly wrong fast lol

hey, how about setting up and recording a short film, maybe a minute or two long, like a video character intro. maybe like how vox machina did theirs

War mage casual - sounds like a store in WoW or something...

Beautiful work, as always. The fracture and repair is a great idea, however, the break looks noticeably artificial. Instead of using a saw to make the pre-cuts, maybe try using a knife. The shorter cutting contact patch will have you reposition more often and cause a more jagged line while still giving the clean fracture you want.
