... My paint says "Metallic finish". Does that mean that it's chrome gold that I shouldn't use? ... Can I ask, what's the point of all that? Why do you need...

weird... don't really care about animated bots. But the new movie sounds cool. The Mike vs Joel wars were bad before, i wonder what Cinematic Titanic vs...

Krylon Gold is the bee's respirator, if you ask me. Lime Gold on cardboard = green card board. Not much help. The key to the Testor's coat is that it enhances...
... Does that mean Krylon Gold is good to use as a primer coat, or bad? Because that's what I bought from Wal-Mart... and that's what says "Metallic Finish" on...
... I checked the paint I used, it's Krylon Metalic #1701 "Bright Gold" It worked fabulously. Just be sure to let it fully dry, then wipe down with a paper...
... Thanks for looking this up for me. I have three pairs of ping pong balls so I'll test the Fluorescent Yellow Rust-oleum on one of them and report whether...
To me, what made the 'bots was the puppeteering and voice work by Trace and Kevin. Making the bots animated and not giving them their original voices seems to...
Crow's shoulders are in three pieces before you get to the arm segments: "Lamp", the larger part with the switch on it; "Peg", which fits into a semicircular...
... Be sure to glue the balls together BEFORE painting them... I actualy built a little rig out of PVC where the balls could sit "shoulder to shoulder"......

... Not the case... bunch of unworked parts thrown in a box. And I can't think of any way to accurately drill the Lamp part so that the Peg fits inside. The...
... Having never seen the Joe Crow part, I can't comment on it's design or production. Lil Monsters replicates the pin and shoulder exactly, and using it for...
On the original Wallace lamp, the shoulder block had a bump on the bottom where a "peg" of sorts would insert into and be o-ringed on the other side so it...
... The resin replica pegs I have are long enough to fit all the way through the lamp protrusion and do have some semblence of a notch around which a ring or...
... The bowling pin is indeed the most nerve wracking part of the project... I went ahead and bought a set of generic pins, and practiced a few times to insure...
I ordered the Joecrow shoulders and yes they are rough, but some sanding took care of that. Now here is what I did, drill a hole wide enough for the part to...
... hole all the way threw the hand parts the slide the the coat hanger wire and glue each end. Crow hands are attached and still have movement. I don't know...
... I suggested it, and it will work. Just cut a length of paper clip, cut one edge on a sharp angle, just it to drill out your small hold to create the hinge....
... Actually, it was mi madre who suggested the "poke the resin with a searing hot pin" technique. Which I really didn't think would work. But I'm pleased to...
I bought a small plastic garbage can at a dollar store to use as a "Crow stand" for the puppet when he's done, and figured I'd test out some of the spray paint...
I bought the Krylon because you can apply a light coat, wait a few minutes, and then apply one, final, heavy coat. No runs unless you're painting wrong,...
... Well, I agree with you on that. Forsaking the steel wool, I tried lightly sanding the insides of my Floralier vases and then painting black. Every...
... At no point did I recommend scrubbing down anything... just a light drag of the wool across the plastic is enough to give it the tooth needed to hold the...
