    Pocketnaut Update!

    August 12, 2024 /

    We are excitedly in the process of changing out the black plastic in the injection machine to yellow for the upcoming Yellow and Dark Grey Pocketnaut release!

    How to make the most realistic harmless hatchet. (DIY Film Props)

    July 24, 2024 /

    This video shows how I made a realistic but relatively safe prop hatchet, for film or theatrical use. A goal with this video was to use only materials I had left in the shop, so there are alternative materials (potentially better) that you can use. SUPPLIES USED IN THIS VIDEO: Smooth-On Rebound (paintable silicone): https://amzn.to/3WBUE1q Smooth-On Ecoflex: https://amzn.to/4fepgNR EasyMold Silicone Putty: https://amzn.to/3Wzj0cd Smooth-On Maker Pro FLEX additive: https://www.smooth-on.com/products/ma…
