This is such a cool project! Would it be possible to get a share-link to a .mp4 of that video?

We've also noticed that they're more likely to watch the complete video and engage with the post after viewing.short and sweet. videos less than 60 seconds are more likely to be viewed all the way through vs. videos that go over a minute.Alternatively, people also love gifs of electronics tasks like soldering and component connections. If you need help making gifs take a look at this Instructable. If you're able to, keep it under 3 MB, that's the largest file size Twitter will accept :)Let us know if you have any questions :D Congrats on your recent win!

We had a busy few weeks around the office and I'm finally able to jump back into this forum topic - thanks for your patience! That project is awesome and it looks like you've already gotten a lot of community feedback! Do you have a shorter version of that video (30 seconds or less) that we may be able to share to twitter? You can upload a .mov to your project or email it directly to us at et@instructables.comCongrats again on your recent contest win!:D

Thanks for your patience with my reply, we were cooking up big ideas over here for 2019 :D We'll definitely queue some of these up. Do you have a username on Twitter?

I really like the way you were able to get that lighting effect with the Adafruit matrix board! Well done.

I really love the way you shaped this dough! I'm going to try that with my next loaf and see how it goes. It looks beautiful!

Hmm, those gifs don't seem to be animated. I think it's a bug on the site, I'll record the bug and pass the feedback along - can you upload the bigger gif to your actual Instructable? I think I'll be able to grab it from there.Thanks!

Me in the tool aisle.....(hopefully one day)

I've been achin' for a miter saw. I haven't bought one since I moved away from the Bay Area and lost access to shared tools. My arms sure are getting strong from using a hack saw though!

I figured it out. It had to do with the face/plane my sketch was attached to. I ended up reassociating the sketch with the origin plane and everything was smooth sailing after that. I just added my prints to the Print queue, it looks like it's going to be a 2-day print on my Monoprice printer. :D

Hey there! I'm trying to recreate this process and have been able to follow along flawlessly up until it came to unfolding the flange. I'm not able to select any surface once I'm to this step - have you ever run into this in Fusion before? My sketch is attached to the origin plane, and not connected to any other body or entity. Thanks for the share and potential solution :D

Awesome! Good work!

Between creations like this and all your fun audio projects, your workshop or bench space must be the coolest place to hang out these days! Amazing work as ever!!

I really like all the different yarns in the different scarves. Great work, and congrats on posting your First Instructable.

How long did it take you to finish one scarf?

Woah this is a cool (no pun intended) project! I'd love to feature it in the arduino category, but your intro image needs to be a little brighter and more in focus. If you decide to swap it for a more feature-worthy image, reply to this comment, and I'll check it out :D Thanks for sharing your brilliance on Instructables! https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Create-a-Feature-Worthy-Instructable/

Cool build! What would you see the average downhill speed of this little go kart is?

Hey there, Welcome to Instructables!This project is a great idea, but it doesn't look your video file is working. I'd love to see this in action so it can be let into the Make it Glow Contest.Maybe consider uploading your video to a service like YouTube and embedding the video module into step 6 above to demonstrate the effect? Can't wait to see this project in action.Let me know if you need help with your video upload.Cheers! -audreyObscura

Awesome! I just queued the project for social, thanks for sharing!

Oh! This is such a clever idea and your results are totally stunning! I have a bunch of fiberoptic cables left over from a project, thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you for your kind words!

Hey there! This project is so cool! I love the way you are using the sphere as a lens. I'm a community manager here at Instructables and would love to feature your project, but it really would be great if you could change the title of your project to 'Fake Planet Photography'. This will help drive more traffic to your project from search, and make it easier for folks around the world to understand your project.Let me know if you need help editing your title, and thanks for inspiring me with a new way to use those cool plastic sheres! Welcome to Instructables!

Hey there! Your photos are easy to follow along with, but I'd love to know more about the materials you used, and why you made this. I like the shape of the design a lot, looking forward to seeing more details added to this project :D

I just admin-forced your entry in. It shouldn't of been denied. Good Luck!

Yeah! Thanks so much! I'll promote this project this week!

Hey there! These are great questions, so I went ahead and updated this forum topic as well. We want to boost published Instructables that have embedded GIFs and videos with a high production value.What do we mean when we say ''high production value"?-images and videos are in sharp focus and well lit-footage is stabilized. Phone tripods are pretty cheap (I use this one quite a bit) or pop over to my photography lesson on tripods-if there is sound, the audio is easily discernable and music is not distracting (nothing with lyrics, is pretty much the rule).

OMG how cute! Would you be willing to make a gif from your video to promote on Social? Your video is awesome, but the music is mixed a little loud and is a bit distracting. I like that you only use text overlays at the beginning of your video and not in them middle. Overlays are tricky, but you use yours sparingly. Well done!Have any other projects in the hopper? We've got a Toys Contest launching next week :D

Yay! You posted it! This is such a COOL UPCYCLE IDEA! It was fun to follow along with your build on social media too - thanks so much for sharing your process on Instructables. I feel like you shared some really good tips about fly-wire circuits that I definitely wouldn't have considered before tackling a project this ambitious.

Where did you find your 12v CCTV module? I have an old project that uses a bunch of CRTs that could use a component like that. :D

Hey there! This is such a cute idea! I actually have a tetherball base from an old art project that I never threw away (aka hoarded), now I have some inspiration for a project - thank you!I'm a community manager here at Instructables too and would love to feature this project - but it needs one little edit to get up to snuff, could you add an in-focus photo of your finished project? Reply to this comment once that edit is made, great work again! Thanks for sharing to Instructables!

Hey there! I'm a community manager here at Instructables and wanted to see if it was even possible to upload a PDF from the mobile site (the browser experience on iPads, tablets, and phones) I just tried to upload a PDF from my phone into one of my draft Instructables and was not able to. I'll file a feature request to get that updated into the Instructables editor's ability, thanks for helping find this bug!In the meantime, are you able to edit your Instructable from a computer? You'll definitely be able to upload the PDF that way. Let me know if you can't access a computer and I can DM you and help you out.Thanks for posting such a cute amigurumi!

The lighting effect that these create is really nice. Thanks for sharing this project!

OMG this is amazing! Please let me know when you upload your video - I curate the Twitter and FB feed for Instructables and would love to help you get some exposure to this project!

The braids and the sesame seeds is a nice touch! Lately I've been adding soaked polenta to this recipe too and it's very very good. Take one cup of polenta, add one cup of boiling water, stir and let stand until cool, then mix that into the bread recipe with a couple tablespoons of olive oil. Nom!

Yup! Epoxy resin totally counts as a plastic!

This a cool little project, and I like that I even learned some materials science tips along the way! Thanks for sharing this tutorial and teaching us something new!

This is awesome! You should post this into the Plastics Contest!

Yay! You finally posted this project! I was so impressed to follow along with this build on Instagram. The finished shapes and routed-epoxy-filled-bits are awesome!

Heya! I'm a community manager here at Instructables. We LOVED! Your life size Frankenbot costume! Could you let us know your Twitter handle? We're still sharing out the best of Halloween for a couple more days and I'd love to tag your profile page in an upcoming post.Thanks for sharing the Halloween spirit on Instructables!

Thank you so much for sharing this on Instructables! Following along with this construction process inspires other creations you could make with this elastic joinery technique. Bravo!

Heya, thanks for getting back to me! I'm also a community manager on the site and would love to feature this project to the home page, but there are a few tiny edits that would be great for you to incorporate. The thumbnail you selected isn't quite flashy enough for a homepage feature, would you change it to the more colorful image you created with the two lamps sitting next to one another? To do this, just edit this Instructable and select a new thumbnail from the drop-down menu in the publish/save screen.Lastly, if you could change your title to be more descriptive like "UV-Fluorescence Steampunk Lamp" and drop the "by Junaphor", as your username already follows your project title on the site.Let me know if you have any questions, and welcome back!

Using a bigger envelope is a great idea! I keep mine in clear ziplock nags and it actually just makes it harder to tell which one is which :P Definitely grabbing some big envelopes next time I'm at the office supply store. Thanks for sharing on Instructables!

Using quinine saturated fluid to make a lamp is brilliant. It really makes for a lovely glowing effect. Well done!!
