The last butt print technique was indeed a fail (we didn’t get enough cheek definition, and it still would have required sanding) so we tried 2 more: 1) the original play of loosely putting saran wrap on first, and just sanding off the textured wrinkles, and 2) skip the saran wrap and use extra...

Well of course the plan for our custom butt stools sounded way too easy to be true. We decided to do some small scale tests of course using tiny circle molds and a 3D printed butt. Well, Evan found a Frog model that was really cheeked up so that’s what we used for the butt

Hey guys… so we might have a little problem. Chunk 2 has a perfect resin seal around the pumpkin, but it cured so slow that he seems to be rotting and creating gas. The gas is pushing out on the resin which is why he was ghostly when we revealed him but spoiler… he is still gassing and the re...

Ever since we first made resin stools 4 years ago, we’ve wanted to make stools that are custom molded to our butts. So we finally decided to make that happen!! To explain our plan for the stools I thought it might be fun to share our plan in the form of an intro we ended up not using. (We even ...

Before you see the results of our concrete vs Razzo “faux terrazzo” let me just say that one worked SO WELL and one failed SO HARD.
The concrete was so much thicker and chunkier that it had a ...

Hey y’all. We demolded Chunk, and he looked pretty bad. Like, SO much promise with his clarity and how fresh he still looked (unlike Meatball, who already looked sorta moldy when we demolded him). But the warping of the resin really took a toll on him.

This video was such chaos haha. In this Aftershow we cover:
Hey y’all! Update on our DIY terrazzo attempts! We finished making chips/flakes out of both the concrete and Razzo. The concrete is the more muted one, the Razzo is the brighter one (due to the concrete having a gray base and the Razzo having a white base)

Hey y’all! Thanks again for naming Chunk (our resin pumpkin) and Dingus (our control pumpkin). We’ve been filming for that video and having too much fun saying both those names. So we wanted to give y’all a little update on how they’re both doing.
We carved both of them and Dingus h...

Like we mentioned a few posts ago, we have an idea we wanna tackle that may involve concrete (hence our quest to test concrete vibrators). But we figured before we get to that, why not experiment with ways to spice up concrete a bit… I’m talking about Terrazzo! If you don’t know what terraz...

Whhhhhhhaaaaat this is NOT what we expected!!! Remember a few posts ago when I said we were gonna test sanitizing cut squash with 1) bleach, 2) 99% alcohol, 3) a “control” with nothing, and 4) diluted bleach? THE CONTROL IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DIDN’T GET SUPER MOLDY

I’m so excited we finished the resin sword!!! When doing the final resin pour we were really unsure about how it would turn out (especially the handle) and we thought we might have to do another try after demolding it. But we ended up loving the blade and the handles!
