  • this week we are crafting a dock, or maybe a cell. we could craft a tower. this week we are crafting a lighthouse for dungeons and dragons.
    I would love to hear your thought on the build in the comment section bellow. I’m a fan of anything modular. Allows me to use versatile crafts over and over again without having to craft something new. Like always let’s thank the patreons for supporting the channel and and giving me the chance to craft for you.

    Tool identity: rotary rasp. Barrel, or Cylindrical, Rotary Rasp should be correct terminology for the one you show at 0:46. Larger versions are called Drum Rotary Rasp.

      @@FrankyDCrafter A lot of the epic music can make you hype for the build, but I find it really distracting for when I want to pay attention to the little details and what the crafter is saying. This music was really enjoyable and I found it much easier to follow along and learn. Also, the craft looks amazing and I love the modularity you bring to your builds.

    As usual, an excellent build. Well thought out, well executed and very versatile. You asked for suggestions so how about: a wizards tower, a guard tower, a temple or a high place for sacrifices. I am always impressed with your work. You may not have wanted it to look professional, but you're one of the few builders that has made randomness looked planned, like it is supposed to look this way. Again excellent build.

    Love the video, esp. the gentle ambient music as it's very relaxing. Little nit pick though (Sorry, but I'm a little OCD about obvious mistakes and it drives me nuts ! - if you look at the stones around doorways and windows in stone built buildings, they always have either "lintel" stones or "key stones" that support the gap underneath. Lintels are long, straight, thick stones that extend over the upright side posts by at least 1' on each side. Key stones are rhomboid shaped stones that interlock in a semi-circle above the doorway so the weight of the building can rest on the stones which distribute the weight through to the base. I know these are only terrain pieces and you can fashion them however you want, but for me, if your going to do something, then make it look as realistic as possible). Apart from that, love the build and it ended up looking amazing.

      I'm so sorry if my coment offended you or seemed disrespectful in any way, it honestly wasn't meant to be. I've thought about it and your right and I'm wrong.
      You have the guts to create something that looked pretty fantastic to be honest, video it, and put it out there on CZcams for all the world to see. Then here I come, geek glasses in hand and trash talk it, nit picking it because I have an inner nerd running down my spine that yells at me when I see something that's not 100% authentic, even though this build is not meant to be a realistic copy of an actual building, it's just a representation of it, purely devised by your imagination and brain power.
      That's not your problem mate, its entirely mine.

      Pebbles The Cat no, it didn’t. Sometimes I have writing messages for this reason. I really do like criticism.
      When I was in high school I was an amazing pen artist, but I always hated the critic part because when it came to my turn. People would always talk about how good the drawing was. This would upset me because what I wanted was pointers to improve on for next time. I don’t just want to hear I made something good. I want to hear about how I can make the next one better.
      I actually really liked your comment. I thought to myself that I should pay attention to smaller details like that. My biggest obstacle in this build was finding good references for it. I had to make something more my stile. I realized I missed a few details by doing so. Like nails on the planks. Lol
      Please, don’t change the way you felt about the original comment. I actually found it helpful. It’s good for me as a crafter. And as an astuta it’s even better. I appreciate your honesty and I didn’t see any malice in the comment.
