I think one of my favorite things about your videos is watching how you two navigate your relationship when you see something differently. I love how you love each other.

24:08 The industry term for the big fluffy cover that you put over a microphone to mitigate wind noise is "dead cat." Congrats to Katelyn for being the first person I've ever seen use a live cat for the same effect.

Katelyn that lava lamp comment inspired a video idea! Please make your own lava lamp! I'm imagining a cat shaped galaxy lava lamp, but of course anything would be super fun to watch!

I love how safe, responsible and family friendly this channel is. 😉It is so safety oriented that they add a "c" for careful to OSHA to make it CHAOS.

What a cool idea! I do my own nails/nail art and I'm really surprised no one mentioned that those chrome powders are supposed to be brushed on, then rubbed in (on nails, with a sponge tipped eye shadow applicator) to really activate their chrome look. It makes a big difference in how it looks.

Ideas for another test of this painting: 1-you can dry acrylic paint with a hair dryer very quickly if you want to color canvases on the fly. 2-you can wrap the magnets with paper if you want to see what designs you can achieve hovering from the top instead of the bottom of the canvas. That will keep any errant fibers from destroying your magnets.

Next time you can try the magnetic pigment powders instead of iron filings. They are super fine metallic pigment that can be manipulated with magnets. They are often sold as nail art pigments and are also present in magnetic nail polish.

2:10 - The spikes follow the lines of magnetic force - they spread out as they move away from the magnet, go round and come back together at the other pole of the magnet. The high fluidity of the liquid in the bottle allows the "ink" to clump together along the lines of force, hence the big lumps as you move away. It's also the reason the thick plaster later on gave a more clumpy (ugly) result because it didn't allow the iron particles to move freely.

Duo-chrome pigment tip. ✨ From my experience you get the best effect if you brush the powder on the surface instead of mixing the pigment in. When I use it in resin, I either brush it directly on the mold before pouring the resin (con - you can't sand the surfaces afterwards) or I pour thin layer of resin, let it harden, brush the pigment on and cover in another layer of resin (con - suitable mostly just for flat objects). :)

An idea: Gold or yellow underpaint, with a blue/indigo or even black paint overtop. Molten gold effects ✨

Those metal disks with the adhesive are often times used for eyeshadows. Some people like to depot their eyeshadows from palettes or from whatever packaging and put them into magnetic makeup palettes. If the metal of the eyeshadow pot thing isn't magnetic, it wont stay in the magnetic palette, so those disks (they come in square and rectangle too) are used to keep the shadows from falling out. I hope that made sense haha

Quick dry medium will help keep a thinner viscosity but the plaster will give texture

I'm already having thoughts 😅 Currently at the Joobie intermission 23:45 and thinking how cool it would look all Black 3.0 and then lightly misted with white (maybe neon over the it) when dry

Hi Katelyn a little painting tip when you’re doing gradient all three colors on first and then light to darkest and make sure not to go back-and-forth cause otherwise it will just turn one color

This is such a wholesome channel. I know it is safe to try the things you show on this channel, because you always think through how to do things in the safest possible way, then share with your viewers the safested possible methods.

I think it'd be better in the future to use electromagnets so that you guys can turn on/off the magnetism when you need to pull away the magnet from the painting. You have less risk of somehow negatively affecting the painting.

For resin magnetic project: build a rig above the project to hold the magnets in place as the resin cures. To secure the magnets to the rig, you could just use a small magnet with a hole in it attached to fishing line. Attach the danger magnet to the smaller magnet and then wind the fishing line around something so you can raise or lower it.

Oh I bet you could totally mix pearl powders, like that GTZ, or whatever with the wax to make a duo-chrome lava lamp actually. @technologyconnections did a great video breaking down what the lava in a lava lamp is made of...should be pretty easy. DO IT!!!!! Please do a video/live video of making custom lava lamps...that would be amazing.
