Hi guys! So some behind the scenes stuff. We wanted to release the propane cannon videos today but there was no way we could have it ready in time (hence the gallery wall video). We've started editing the video and of course we jump right to the slow motion footage and just had to share this with you guys!
Also we're embedding...

SUCCESS! I think 1000 FPS is enough to show the flame, what do you think? It does not actually fire that fast, we looped one over the other. Test firing some actual projectiles today!

Hey guys! Super excited to share a sneak peek of our next project :D
We're getting into cosplay and costumes by making a Wonder Woman tiara. We used thermoplastics (wonderflex and black worbla) to make the shape. We also added eyelets for elastic to be threaded through later.

Hi guys! We made this video black and white so that Evan didn't have to put on any makeup... because we are sleepy after traveling 2 weekends in a row while trying to keep up the hustle :) Anyone here going to the New York Maker Faire? We'll be at these meetups:

Hey Patreon peeps! We just ordered new stickers and we're working on setting up an online shop where folks can buy them, but we'd like to have more than just stickers on the shop. Any specifically merch y'all would want to see? We think t-shirts would be fun but we're down to think outside the box too

When we first started working on our videos, our garage was way too dark. We got a 4500 lumen bulb (http://amzn.to/2rVBAdU) to replace the 700 lumen one we had in there. Always meant to do something with this footage but it wasn't enough to turn into a full video, so...

We were in the middle of a project and didn't savor the idea of all the sanding so we made a simple DIY flap sander inspired by the ones made by machinists at a shop Evan used to work at.
