The video production, music, talent, and incredible attention to detail are really making a whole package greater than its sum

[@huxbricks524]

I had the feeling that Shrek could walk out of it any moment! Great work, it looks very realistic!

[@artandtech3947]

It's really art of hard work, good job.

[@melibu74]

Just your attention to the door hinges alone makes this an exceptional video!

[@PENFOLD1962]

A model of convenience. You make it look so easy. Another video worthy of GREAT BIG THUMB'S UP. Thank you for sharing.

[@paulmcgrath552]

I remember watching the original 1965 movie Flight of the Phoenix where the Jimmy Stewart is dismayed that the guy he entrusted to rebuild the damaged aircraft is a MODEL AIRCRAFT builder. The builder retorts that in model building the tolerances are so much smaller and, therefore, more critical. I've built an outhouse using a carpenter rule, scribe and hand saw - I wish I had our CZcams host with me at that time it would have worked out so much better.

[@darknessislight3689]

Growing up in SW Virginia in the 70’s and 80’s ☺️ this brings back memories and fears 🫣 splinter always 😣 and spiders and black snakes 😫 in the spring and summer. 🫢 good times 😒 not really 😂

[@user-hg4lt1eu7p]

восторг!!!!!

[@Trevor_Austin]

Great video. I think your method sticking/spiking your buildings into the ground is superb. I’ll use that method for surface structures from now on. May I suggest that you use an old credit card/electronic hotel key card as a glue spreader? File small notches in one edge.

[@subrata938]

Bro keep uploading I am learning to do like this seeing your videos..equipment are shortage but still I am trying..

[@tomgdownhill]

Run out of things to write, but still want to help your vids get hits... XD yay the algorithm...

[@rafaelrojas6675]

CHEERKKKK!! 💨🚽

[@anniejimenez3598]

It is so real looking it is incredible, I made one last year on my own and I think I did a pretty good job I wish I could send you a picture of it to get your opinion.

[@darknessislight3689]

Awesome Craftsmanship ! and attention to details ! Beautiful ..... Question ! What Adhesive are you using to Glue these wood pieces together ? Instant Adhesive of some Type ?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

Thank you. I use a fast setting super glue to glue the wood pieces together.

[@jonasgonzaga2815]

Eu posso ficar o dia inteiro preso nesse tipo de video

[@andresarroyo2638]

Hola, excelente video. Tengo una pregunta. Dónde compraste el cepillo de carpintería para lijar la madera? gracias

[@damlakaraman3139]

mükemmel

[@renefanger9085]

I'm sure, everybody can hear it..... "Somebody......" 🤪

[@tamasmihaly1]

I love this kind of excessive attention to detail. You’re like a true master. I think it takes so much talent to make a simple outhouse diorama seem so “immersive” and fascinating.

[@Wittmason]

I’ve only just found your channel, you’re doing excellent videos and of course your model building is amazing. I’m curious what glue are you using to bond the Balsa?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

It’s just super glue. Super glue works best for me so I can mix my paints with water without it dissolving the glue

[@Wittmason]

Great point - thanks for the reply@@ExcessivelySentimental

Hola con que madera haces la construcción del baño, saludos desde Chile.

[@user_justgames]

[@paposwing2925]

What type of wood do you use and where can you buy it?

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

I use balsa wood and it can be found at most craft stores.

Balsa wood

[@ExcessivelySentimental]

I mean… technically… 😬

[@WhosAGoodDogue]

BEWARE! - Before you sit down, remember to check under the dunny seat for a microscopic redback/black widow spider.....

[@dempi7757]

48th mean 1:48?...

[@feynthefallen]

Nice little build, except for the fact that any reasonable person would put the boards vertically.

[@cesarvassalli1205]

HEY WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SEAT OF THE OUTHOUSE WE NEED TO SEE WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE. I THOUGHT YOU WOULD PUT IT SINCE YOU EVEN. PUT RUST STAINS AND HOLES ON THE WALLS
