Приєднався 16 жов 2011
Hi, thanks for stopping by, I build things here: mainly little models, marble runs, and anything else that might fit in that category, or that just catches my eye, I post daily and I generally aim to keep my videos in the 45-60 minute range and hopefully they are informative as well as entertaining. Anyways, thanks for reading, feel free to leave a comment or question in any of the comments sections and I'll try and get back with you.
You’ll also occasionally see shorts featuring my pets, I think I’ll try to post these on Saturday, they aren’t trained or really do any tricks…but we still manage to have some fun, and look cute to boot.

R.Duck Locomotive Works Build (3k Subscriber Special)-Day 6
First of all, thanks to each and every one of you, I never thought I'd get this many subscribers, and I'm really appreciative that you enjoy spending time with me as I do my (sometimes) silly little builds.
As for my 3k project and how it came to beI believe when I was asking for suggestions for my 2k build special someone mentioned these folks to me in the comments, I always kept them in the back of my mind for the next build when I was getting closer to the time I reached out to them to make sure they'd be cool with me using their product in one of my videos, they were enthusiastic, and here we are, I think this is going to be a long build, but I also think we'll make good progress once I get my feet wet and get used to how they do the instructions, I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes, because I've always had a fondness for trains, so I think this will be a fun build, and I feel this is probably going to be one of the more complex builds that I've ever done...and I don't have to make a witches hat for it! 😂

Temu Build: Vertical Marble Run
Переглядів 207День тому
I saw this one on Temu and thought it looked really cool, and it seems a little bit fiddly in the end, I do think that it will be a nice functioning piece with just a little bit of attention, I like the marble runs and I thought that this one brought a different style that I hadn't tried before.

I saw this one on Temu and thought it looked really cool, and while there are certain aspects that I did like about it (the controller), I don’t think I can recommend this one…it should have been a palate cleanser, but it turned out to be a bit of a headache.

Well, here we are again with another ROKR set, I think this one is fairly new and I just liked the way it looked! 😂 I’m trying to do a better job of remembering to post the links to the items here, so here it is: a.co/d/7mqBAVu (At the time of publishing there was a Rowood version for considerably cheaper, I’m pretty sure they are the same company, so I wouldn’t hesitate to buy that one).

It’s looking really nice! Good job!
I'm really enjoying this one!
It’s a good one, for sure! I’m enjoying all the little details on this big model!
Please don’t feel you have to talk to us while you’re building and concentrating, sometimes silence is golden (at least that’s how I feel when I’m working on my projects) awesome job today btw ❤
I don’t think I have to talk, but I feel like I should say something every now and then, just to be polite. 😂
The GP9 is a Diesel electric so the gauges would be for Volts and Amps from the generators and alternators. What you were building is a 32 valve engine to produce the electric power to move the locomotive which would pull the train and since the trains are so long depending on the length and weight they would more locomotives either in the front middle (known as Distributed Power Unit) or the end (pushers) these additional units are remotely controlled by the engineer in the front loco
Okay, that makes sense, thanks for the info!
This series was excellent! Thank you! I ordered this kit for a part of a special crafting video I'm working on for December. With your permission, I'll link your channel and playlist like I did with the Magic Library Book Nook. Did you watch my video where I talked about your channel?
I will now.
Very impressive build today, nice looking engine ,and controls, you dogs sound like mine ,always got to have the last word
You got that right, they have to answer every bark they hear, although they are getting on in years now and don't hear as well as they used to. 😂
Dang thats so cool! 👍
Thank you!
I think we’re gonna have to call this one “The Big Engine That Could” I know I can, I know I can …
For all the little details and intricacies of this one it is going together extremely smoothly, it's just going to be a matter of the time, lots of time! 😂
Great build! Thanks for the detailed process. The packet is standing in front of me and with your help it will be an easy way to build it.
Awesome, thank you! You can't go wrong with the Rolife book nooks, every one I've done has been really good!
Hiya. We did ours and dipped into your vid to help us figure out what went where - I’m so thankful to you for your vid. And I’m thrilled to say that ours sounds just as wonky as yours 😂 but loads of fun, a real talking point and another to add to our collection of 7 other models (2 machine guns, robot, projector, carousel, fairground ride and printing press) We love doing them on wet weekends and can sometimes take weeks to complete them, but we love the process, if a bit frustrating at times 😊 Now going to source our next challenge. All the best with yours! Julie & Tony, Scotland, UK
That's awesome, I really like the ROKR sets, they always seem to just work, thanks for watching!
Love the train build it's definitely going to be a monster build congrats on 3000subs👍.
Thank you, I'm amazed at how smoothly it's going, for a build of this scale and detail it's really pretty simple, just a matter of being patient.
Great progress today its starting to come together now ,
The fun stuff starts tonight, we've got the platform, time for the body!
I hope you will make the Holo Magic City (also with light and music) too.... Love you're vids
That's a big one...I'll put it on the list!
Just completed mine and it turned out perfect. Thank you for the step by step real time video's.
Glad it helped! I liked that one, I’m keeping my eyes open for more boxes/safes.
@@Dbuilderguy I like them to, wood tricks chest is my favorite so far, lots of moves to make before it will open.
That’s cool, I am looking for more of a “mystery box” type of build, that sounds like it might fit the bill.
@@Dbuilderguy if you get the chest from wood trick be sure to sand and wax every piece you're supposed to and it will work smooth. It's definitely my favorite, it takes about 11 steps to open it once assembled, you need a good memory as well, lol.
This is quite the intricate build. Very nice work the final outcome should be very nice!
We haven’t even got to the intricacies yet, wait until Sunday. 😂
Curious I just got mine. Besides tweazers is there anything else you think I should buy. This my very first one
I find my picks pretty useful (sort of like these: www.harborfreight.com/mini-pick-and-hook-set-63697.html?_br_psugg_q=pick, )and some mini pliers ( www.harborfreight.com/precision-pliers-set-3-piece-64566.html )if you need a better grip than the tweezers can provide. Otherwise, it's just a matter of trial and error experimentation to see what works best for you.
The final Loco should be 29" long according to the website
That seems right, I believe I’m about to add on those extra 3-4” tonight. 🤔
Thank you for making this. I almost got so frustrated that I wanted to fist pound the train into pieces when trying to get the wheels correct. The instructions could be a little more descriptive, for me at least. I will follow this when I get home from work. I wish I didn't have to leave right now!
You’re welcome, I hope it’s helpful. Good luck. 🍀
It seems to be out of beat
Entirely possible, I don’t think I ever got that pendulum properly balanced, it would run for several hours and then slowly fade.
@@Dbuilderguy that does make sense why
ROKR 3D Wooden Puzzle Carousel Model Building Kits Rotating 5-Horses Music Box Christmas Birthday Gift for Kids Girls Daughter so here is the description of the Wooden Puzzle i was trying to share The link but UA-cam won't let me this is the 4th time im trying to leave a comment With this description actually your video and step by step instructions makes it super easy thank you for considering my request to make that Puzzle im supper existed 😊
No worries, I already have it.
I think the wheel assemblies are called "trucks". I am enjoying this one, for sure.
It is starting to dawn on me that when they tell you that their products have "museum quality details and features" you should plan on the build taking a bit longer. 😂
hey there! i have a question, do you happen to know how to replace the battery on the watch? i can't find any way to open it
If you take a small flathead screwdriver and push straight down on the seam at the back of the dial I got the back to pop off after a couple of tries, or if you have a local independent jewelry store they will usually change watch batteries out for you for a nominal fee.
not sure if it was caught and fixed in future videos or not. but the snail shell shaped gear at 21:33 was put on backwards. the dots should line up. in this position the hour ticks over on the 30 minute mark.
I don't remember, but I never got close to making it run for thirty minutes either, so it's possible I never noticed. 😂
Those clips for the wheels made all the difference! Great solution! Congratulations on your 3000 subscribers!😊
Thanks so much! 😊 It's amazing how much easier things are when you use the right tools for the job! 😂
Excellent progress today Daniel, it always takes a while to get used to different ways of doing things,those are called boggies, iam glad you are getting more views, you certainly deserve it
True, and these folks have really good pics to guide, but they do seem to leave how you assemble it up to you, which I like, and thank you!
Hello! I’d like to thank you for this video as I had almost the exact same set as this except I noticed you had a few pieces I didn’t have. Anyway, I have a question. I’m not sure if yours turned out sturdy but mine is almost pretty sturdy except for the four towers in the middle. I was wondering, if you have any recommendations for using a certain glue for it won’t fall off so easily. I was thinking of hot glue, but I’m not sure. Please let me know. Thanks!
It seems like my towers were a little wobbly, but they didn't seem like they would fall over or anything, if you wanted to glue them I'd say just about any glue would do, I don't think you'd need anything super strong. If you've been watching my videos, I tend to mix up my glue pretty regularly and they all seem to do the same job in the end. Good luck!
I'm still waiting for the rokr Merry-go-round Horse Musical Box and am super excited about it.
I was looking back through my content and realized it's been a while since I did a real music box, so once I finish up with the train (someday) I think it'll be next in the queue.
@Dbuilderguy oh my god thank you so so much
Congratulations on 3k🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks for that, I've got the glue ready .😎
Daniel, there has got to be an easier way to do this with the wheels. That seems way too complicated. I hope you are able to come up with a more efficient way to do that. I'm just saying.
I have a plan...I was using the wrong tool. 😂
This looks like a major project. I hope it goes well for you. Good luck, my friend.
Thanks a bunch! It's much more detailed than I realized...I like it!
I've been wanting to get one of these kits for awhile, so this will be fun to watch. They have so many that I can't decide on which one.
I know, I like all the "classic" looking ones, but this more modern one really caught my eye.
Congratulations on making it to 3000 Your talent, patience and perseverance has definitely paid off and you deserve all the kudos 👏👏👏 I’ve certainly enjoyed watching
Thank you so much!
put all the rings on the axle then glue the outside ring into position with the overhang then glue the others to it
I can't get it to stabilize with just the one ring, that's why I'm ganging them together, I think I've got a better method figured out for the remaining wheels.
Congratulations on making it to 3000 your talent, patience and perseverance has paid off and you certainly deserve the kudos 👏👏👏
Hi , did you find it a bit fiddly at the back with the wires and the on off switch?
I think that thing was all fiddly, but I seem to recall breaking off pieces every time I tried to use the switch or change the batteries. 😂
This looks like a very interesting build they certainly put a lot of detail in these kits! Daniel brilliant 👍
I'm looking forward to this one, should provide plenty of chances for problem solving I would think.
I am looking forward to seeing you build this one. I may give this one a try. (Great to see you at 3k).
Thank you! I may have gotten in a little bit of the deeper end than I intended, but I think it will work out nice in the end.
Wow, that's a lot of parts. It looks interesting, though, and plenty of details
That's what they put on the tin, even when I looked at it and ordered it I didn't realize how much bigger it would end up being than some of the others I've done, should be a fun ride!

Congratulations on 3K buddy!
Thank you!
Hi! I have a question please. I am at part 31:19 into your video.... I attached those parts, but the wire strip of lights don't turn on. They did twice for like a milli-second each time. But the bottom lights work, music works, and bottom spins. The company sent me a replacement wire because the first one didn't do anything. Any advice? Why is the connection not working?
My guess would be that there must be an issue somewhere in the power supply, a bad circuit board or something maybe, I'm not sure of any fixes for that though.
@@Dbuilderguy Thank you!
You may have meantioned alreay, but how long did it take you to make this?
I'd say including prep and everything probably around 8-9 hours total. It does go together pretty quickly once you have the pieces ready.
Yeah, it's R.Duck!
Call me stupid, but where do you put the balls to start the game?
If you just drop it in the board, it'll feed into the shooter automatically.
My blog and video are up and you are talked about! ua-cam.com/video/sEXUdZ2mJT8/v-deo.htmlsi=2keg8CuvnCjgWjEU
Congrats on reaching 3K !!
Thank you so much 😀, I was starting to worry I was going to have to do another one day build before I got to my big project! 😂
Just when l thought you were done, you kept bringing more pieces 😂 it looks nice!
😊 thank you, I liked this one too!
Nicely built Daniel looks OK, iam not an F! Myself, but it looks good . Congratulations on 3,000 subs ,well deserved
I'm not either, but I do like a nice race car! 😂
A good support during assembly
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
What usb cable do you use to power it.
It was just a standard USB-C that I had laying around.
