You are the Bob Ross of cosplay. You make it all look so straight forward and easy.

Hey there! Thank you for this awesome video :D About the helping hand: if the "crocodile teeths" are damaging your boards, you can put a heat shrink tube on both parts to soften the grip!
-
I got the book at Christmas, this video is a nice addition to help me understand! :D I was worried to mess up the soldering :')
-
Thanks a lot, you guys. I've only made one light-up prop so far, and it was just with basic store bought christmas lights and very simple. I've been wanting to do some more complicated builds and I think you've given me enough to get started. Thank you very much for all the work and love you put into your builds. Your passion for your art is amazing. And... Corgi!

A project that I am currently working on uses a raspberry pi zero. It's a microcomputer which you can use to power LED's as well. The cool thing is that you can remotely feed it commands using an app on your phone. So that way you can change your LED's on the go!

Days before I attempt my cascading led project for my Rapunzel wig- Kamui drops this. SHE READ MY MIND- I was legit so confused on how I’d do this but this legit is so helpful😭 now to find the money to do so 💀

I just started planning my 2024 dragon themed Halloween Masquerade ball gown. 🐉👗🎃 But 1 giant gloomy cloud stood in the way: I had no idea how to design the lighting and electrical system for the fire and lava elements. 🔥🌋 Thanks to this video, that gloomy cloud is gone!!! Only excitement remains. 🤩 Perfect timing! Thank you! (Just joined, too. Excited to support the channel!)
