Welcome to Chris Makes Props

If you’re into sci-fi, 3D printing, film replicas, and watching someone hilariously learn (and sometimes fail) their way into prop making… then you’re in the right place!

My name’s Chris — former marketing guy, lifelong film nerd, and now a total newbie in the world of prop making. I’ve never built a prop in my life, but after turning 50 and selling my agency, I thought, “Why not give this a go?” Inspired by legends like Adam Savage and fuelled by a slight midlife crisis (😉), I’m diving headfirst into a world of Star Wars helmets, Blade Runner electronics, Alien busts, and more.

In this channel, you’ll get:
👉 My full process (failures included!)
👉 Step-by-step builds with no glossing over the hard bits
👉 Raffles to win one-of-a-kind props I make
👉 And plenty of geeky rambling about the films we all love

This first video is just an intro — who I am, what I’m planning, and some of the awesome builds coming your way. Hope you’ll stick around for the journey!
