Welcome to Amuse Crafts and Customs

First off, thanks for checking out my new site for Amuse Crafts and Customs. It’s been a while since my last video and so much has changed but let’s start with the name change itself.

Vend Craft, while an awesome name, was something I felt limited me too much. Working on, restoring, and maintaining bulk vending machines is something I will still do on the channel and here on the site, but I think there are so many neat and interesting things I can do beyond that. One avenue I want to explore, for example, is sign making and graphics design. This also still ties into the business side of bulk vending as there is still a need to design machines, decals, logos, and more. This will include custom painting, creating custom signs and artwork, and other techniques that can also help you learn how to make your machine truly yours. The other avenue is custom model making, which again can tie into creating a standout machine but can also demonstrate some of the repair and customization techniques that will come in handy if self-repair is important to you as it is to me.

But the core of Vend Craft is still the core of Amuse: to encourage you to stop accepting a boring machine and make something that will get people to notice and buy your products. Now, the idea can expand beyond just gumball and candy machines and into offering custom toys, models, signs, and so much more. I may also expand into more product reviews. This wouldn’t just consist of bulk venders like the Chinese Three Head I did a few years ago, but also the tools I use or need so that you can also make the right decision and make your life easier.

I’ve also decided to start offering a multitude of digital art that you can use. While I’ve only uploaded a few price sticker designs, you can expect more custom artwork to start appearing and you can use on your machines that will truly help them stand out and make others notice. Striping kits, custom graphics, and more will become available for you to buy, download, and use on your machines. The only catch is that you’ll need a local decal maker to print and cut them for you or be willing to print them on your own and cut them using a Cricut or Silhoutte machine or by hand. But you could also fall back to model making and print them on water decal sheets and apply them that way. Digital files make the choices endless and easy. If you happen to use any of the artwork I sell, be sure to send me images to share with the world at large on Instagram and here on the site.
If you want it, fully custom designs are also an option, but you will need to get in contact with me so we can create the perfect digital artwork for your machine.

Regardless, I look forward to seeing what you all make in 2026 and helping you create the machines you’ve wanted or dreamed of.
