Can You Make an Edible Telescope? | How to Make Everything: Telescope

why did i just watch some guy eat a kit kat uncomfortably for thirty seconds

dude, as you were cooking up the sugar, my mom was in the kitchen making caramel and vanilla, and it really messed with my head for a second when the smell hit me as video and reality became intertwined.

A moment of silence for pringles that gave their lives

This is so messy it hurts

You need to temper the chocolate

this channel went from How To Make Everything to How To Make Glass

This channel is perhaps the most realistic and unafraid-to-show-failure DIY show ever! I appreciate the honesty.

There are probably going to be a lot of haters because you used store bought ingredients here but honestly I like the way the channel is moving. I know you have to be true to you're roots but you also have to have cost efficient videos so sprinkling in the "from scratch videos" to obtain viewers and having more videos like this in between I feel is best.

You should try making plastic from scratch

I know everyone is bitching about the "how to make Glass" change, but I really want to see it done. There is not a single video on youtube, in which somebody creates real, clear glass.

You've done a lot of useful things like making food, drink, tools clothing etc, but you haven't made anything for entertainment or music like a guitar or a piano or something like that. I think it would be really cool if you made something like that maybe next season.

You're not going to eat that Pringle?

I'd recommend using real bakers chocolate rather than chocolate chips if you are ever going to make a edible thingy again. Chocolate chips are made to not have that "snap" that good quality chocolate bars have, and will stay melty/chewy if you ever try to melt and temper it unfortunately. Great video otherwise! Another tip for sugar lenses is to not stir it, just swirl the pan (this prevents cloudiness). And to warm up any utensil you're using to put in the sugar while it boils (like whisks or thermometers), cold metal can shock the sugar and cause crystallization and cloudiness.

Can you make a video about "How to make a Guitar"?

based on the production quality of this channel i would expect several million subscribers.

How To Make Glass. Part 15 / 258. Jk :) love your content.

For such a seemingly clumsy dude, you do quite well. Thank you for your content.

Hi Andy and team! This is going to be one of those "Thank you for your criticism, it has been noted." comments. Having watched you go from Suit to Telescope has been a fascinating journey! Although I've noticed something in your latest videos that something seems to have slipped. And it started with your Glasses project. May have started before then, but I digress. One of the indicators of this is your injuries. While injuries and mistakes are not an indicator of lack of care, they are a pretty good indicator! Why do I think there's a lack of care? Well, in the kiln you used at home for glass video, I noticed something. Suffice to say it was downright shoddy craftsmanship. I was largely surprised. There are a NUMBER of models you could have used for that. You didn't even fasten it together to get more efficiency and heat out of it! Also a screwdriver? Really? And for the clear ice? I was sure you'd have seen some other videos about it and it should have been an easy thing to do. That tells me some research was neglected. There's a problem here. You succeed when you do proper research, get input and teaching from experts, then apply that input and lessons into the final product. Where you fail is where you did what you did with the kiln. And your first chocolate molds. "Eh, whatever, it works right?" As the chocolate mold showed you, you can't be nonchalant about this stuff. I think that is what has happened here. You've had a few successful things and have gone into maybe more complex stuff thinking you have a handle on it and you end up not. So you've failed, gotten injured, depressed, and careless, which leads to more injuries, etcetera. I hate seeing my fellow makers get depressed and discouraged. And adjure you to continue! But I would carefully consider and not bite off more than what you think you can chew. A telescope is a big project, and there's going to be lots of initial failures and mistakes. The last frame of this video, I saw an Andy who said to himself "Please don't make me do one of these stupid videos again, please.". I'm probably sure I'm the only one who saw that as that. You have to admit, you look pretty down. So I encourage you to keep going, but be more mindful at the same time! Try to take on some smaller, less intensive projects again! You have been steadily improving as a crafter and I encourage you to keep going! Apologies for the long comment. Good luck with your future projects! -Robert -ps: This is simply my opinion of what I think I see. That is all.

there was something So satisfying about seeing him eat the chocolate/sugar at the end.

An edible telescope? What?! A device that's both for viewing and eating? It's gonna be visual and gustatory!
