Very neat! I also love that the channel abbreviation also looks like it's supposed to say "nifty" because a lot of what you do here is quite nifty! 😊

[Miguelsbigbro]

Nate, that’s badass. It actually makes me think of something you’d have on a spaceship to help attach equipment. Your very own docking station

[EchoMirage]

Nate being all proud and excited about the results must be the wholesomest thing ever! 😁

[DrDIYhax]

This was really cool i would love to see you do more things with alginate and other moulding materials !

[amywhigham]

Very nice, Nate! Well done! 🥰 I see that you are very proud of this! 😀 As you should be! 😊 Love your cross 🤞 fingers too! ☺️💖

Nate I’ve been watching you for YEARSS, since around 2018 or so and you are my favourite, I appreciate you so much for what you have done and helped me through, without actually being there to help, TYSM Nate 💙

12:08 The look that happens so rarely, where something just works the first time, with no modifications, and even better than you'd planned.

Brings a tear of joy to your eye

Nate, I build signs for a living and your NFTI sign behind you is driving me nuts. You shouldn't be able to see a dotted line of light around the sign. I'm guessing you made it yourself and I don't blame you (A commercial backlit sign that size would cost at least 2k to make and install) and you probably used a led strip light around the perimeter, and while they can work for objects farther away from the wall, like a TV for instance, but up close lack any diffusion and make the dotted lines we see.
What you need is proper sign led modules. Google pictures of a "backlit led sign" to see what I mean. They have a lens over each led that projects the light equally in a 360° shallow bowl shape so there are no bright spots in any direction. Even when spaced inches apart they blend together seamlessly and create an illusion of it being one continuous light source like a neon tube.
You would only need probably 20 to 30 modules spaced evenly down the center of the letters, but you can try different spacing and counts to achieve the brightness and overlap your looking for.
The only downside is that you will need to supply your own power supply but if you make sure you get 12v modules, you can probably use any 12v wall plug or power adapter that puts out 12v and at least 1amp for that few modules (Like an old external hard drive power adapter for instance).
Also I should note that just a single 12v 3led module is probably brighter than a 12 foot section of led light strips. And for further reference we replaced all of our florescent lights in our facility with these modules by sticking 34 2led modules to the inside of the housing and replacing the ballast with a 12v power supply and it is just as or brighter than 4-4ft florescent tubes. And for durability, aside from a few power supply failures we haven't changed any of the led's in over 10 years.
Feel free to message me if you have any other questions on installing or good brands to buy.
I've been watching you since you started on kor and unsubscribed from kor when they fired you. Don't be afraid to put out random content, even if it's something you visited before on kor or someone else did. You have your own unique perspective and can put your own thoughts, designs, expertise, etc into something that may have been done before but done poorly and put your own spin on it.
I know it's long but I hope you have a chance to read it and good luck with your future endeavors!

Is Callie your editor? Hehe, the on-screen annotations during the first couple of minutes read like she's giving you flack about the mixture 😂

[Vaggumon]

Wife setting across the room, looks over my shoulder, and just goes. "Huh, flared base."

[clancuthbertson]

Such a HANDY addition to the workshop, Nate! Well done, Sir!

[Donald]

I thought Nate from TKOR Died because of what i heard from TKOR.

'don't trust Nate with a blade'

Wait, isn't he a bladesmith? So is that a good endorsement or a negative one for prospective clients, 😂

[Heavens_Rejected]

I would probably have the same grin on my face after setting up something like that XD

[BenKDesigns]

Yeah, but now, you need to make another hand that keeps the door from swinging open too wide and knocking the respirator on the ground. :P

[justinbanks]

Another truck I've seen people do when pouring molds is use a reciprocating saw with the blade off and the end where the blade would come through (don't know the name of that part of the saw) against the edge of your container that your mold is in then turn on and use as a vibratory way to help get bubbles out.

I would think that would work here too

[randallmacdonald]

almost 1/2 million subscribers, Nate. Doesn't that tell you something? We love you!

[LeesReviews]

I love that your channel appears to be blowing up with subscribers.

[kwaaaa]

Nate looking at warts on his hand: "uhh...and theres bubbles in the alginate" Kidding, lol

[SharksFan]

This is brilliant. The pure joy of it actually working
