In this tutorial we teach you how to make barbed wire for your miniature. We are going to use this stuff to create terrain later. Thanks for watching!

Spamming the forum with your tutorials is not conducive to developing a wide audience. Can you tone it back a bit, mate?

Good tutorial, but damn it if you don't oversaturate us with them.

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

Can you ever have too many tutorials?

I would understand if they were pants (I have not watched any of his tutorials so could not comment on their quality), but if they are good, what exactly is the issue?

36 threads in as many days. At the rate he posts, he could make one thread and get a lot more views for it.

We're just trying to share our hobby. We think of ideas that people might find interesting and post them.

And churn out an idea a day.

It's cool, jay (that's *your* name, right?) I don't expressly disliked you having tutorial to share. It just strikes me that at the rate you post hey could go in one thread and it would be more effective for you, and less obnoxious.

And far less easily browsable or searchable. Though, tbh, the search function is dead right now anyways.

I don't care whether you make a P&M-Blog with all your tutorials or post them one by one here, just keep the good stuff flowing. You are really productive and I'm learning a lot. Keep it up, however you deem it best.

Keep them rolling. Your tutorials are fantastic and I love how often you put them out. You are probably the best hobby tutorial providers on here!

Really want to do this. I've been looking for how to do my wire. Thanks

No complaints here, that looks far better than the barbed wire I had made! Seriously, that's some good stuff. Very simple, and effective.

The video was of good production value and provided a useful time saving technique.

I have been doing something similar for years, but I didn't make little loops to cut off later. That one change in technique will dramatically increase the speed of of my barbed wire production.

Keep these coming. You have some basic and cool tutorials. Don't know why some people would have an issue with it.

I particularly like the way EonsOfBattle posts his videos. Without him, the painting and modeling tutorials would only advance one or two new tutorials a week, with half of those just being a posting in how to strip miniatures.

If you dont like it, dont click on it. No one forces you, no one drags you to your internet capable device and makes you scroll his videos. Its the internet, get over it dude.

Jay! (That *is* your name, right?) I love your tutorials! I love the pace that you do them in, short and informative with very clear video, narration and instructions.
I especially like that you post your videos on Dakkadakka because my kindle and Iphone are cumbersome when it comes to searching through youtube for anything. Having them here in dakka lets me scroll to see the new and interesting video youve made anywhere my devices have internet. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to informing the hobby community! Dont let the flamers get you down!

Incredible tutorial.

Such a quick and simple trick to make something so effective. Honestly, I can make that statement often about your other tutorials as well.

Thank you for helping me and countless other modellers through your tutorials.

Not bad for barb Ever thought getting narrow needle nose to crimp portion of the wire to create concertina wire? Some call them razor wire. Its what I do when building fortification
