    3D Printed Injection Molds (actually work)!

    July 10, 2021 /

    After making injection molds from silicone and resin+metal oxide, I finally tried making a straight resin 3D printed mold. Instead of using my regular 3D print resin, I tried Siraya Sculpt Ultra White (and later, regular Siraya Sculpt) and was very surprised by the results.

    Why NOT to use existing music and clips, EVEN PAID and LEGAL. Does “FAIR USE” apply on YouTube?

    June 15, 2021 /

    It can be discouraging when you get permission to use a song, pay for a license, and STILL lose monetization of your video due to a large company claiming it. And it’s even worse (in my opinion) when you use clips under FAIR USE – as part of education or parody – and lose 100% of your video’s revenue.
