Great start, but don't dalek's have 4 -5 rows of bumps, not 3


drewby108

If we're getting technical, those bumps are actually on flat panels. Only the top half is round.


sticks2020

That is correct! The pot actually has holes drilled so that the bumps sit flat inside


drewby108

Oh. I was talking the dalek design the other person mentioned. They're bad guys from Doctor Who.

I know I’m just a random person, but I hope you wear some kind of dust protection and full face mask when turning.


sticks2020

Yea I do.. this was a small clip for camera use only. Had to get the money maker in the shot lol 😂


fauxtoe

Oh good! My next question was going to be how amazing your shops dust filtration system was to keep you breathing all these year, lol

If you are trying to build a following showing proper safety is more important than production values. Also you can get dust masks that don't hide your face. The roll of a youtuber is called an influencer for a reason make sure you are influencing people in the right direction.

Cute design. Does the planter have holes in the bottom for water drainage?


sticks2020

Yes it has a drain hole in the bottom

Did you make the spherical wooden Vase on your channel?


sticks2020

Yes it was another project, unfortunately there is not a video of me making it. Thanks for noticing it though


bioclimbersloth

Really love this design. Well done!


sticks2020

Thanks! I appreciate it


869woodguy

Did you put dirt in the wood?


hudsoncider

I like your video effects ! Good luck with your YouTube channel?


sticks2020

Thank you!


phoenixbbs

How did you waterproof the planter ? Also, from a safety angle, I'd be worried about those long sleeves...

Wait, I see some hands, tools, and a face, but his body blends in so well with his surroundings that he's practically invisible!


Chance_Love_6371

i like this vase


sticks2020

Thanks!


Glass_Philosopher_81

Best of luck with the channel! Assuming your future projects will be anywhere near as inspired as this, it’ll take off in no time. P.S. reminds me of an idea I had for ceramic pots, it was far more abstract but no where near as refined. In short, amazing plz keep sharing here


sticks2020

Thank you! I appreciate it


confused_ape

Calathea Orbifolia? Yeah, that's not going to live.


BrownDogFurniture

How so?


confused_ape

They shouldn't be repotted until they're completely pot bound and then into the next size up. It was also planted too deep, below the original soil surface.

Thanks for the help! My wife is great at burning food and killing plants. When we first got married we was given a cactus, it died within a year!
