You absolutely can! It was THE part I cut out of my ideas, but the plan was to trace the profile, sculpt in epoxy clay, check fit, polish, mold from silicone putty, then cast using clear UV cure resin. :D Has to be shallow or the refraction would be too much, I believe.
and don't cast it on to the LCD itself because they don't like getting hot, but if it's done seperate it should work! A lot of watches have convex lenses, so you might be able to cheat a bit and just buy a watch lens on ebay and cut it down to the shape you need
@@anthonysaffioti9048 you ever just wanna fill a modified doll douse with figmas? Cuz I do. This TV would be perfect. It would also be perfect for a TV head custom figure
My walking dead figures are still waiting for me to get going. Found the house thrifting along with a weapons haul and a few new housemates. Lost my ambition when the lockdown hit.
Those feelings when, "You need a tiny tv for your GI Joes" and when "You're painting but you remember you have some brass mesh" are universal parts of the human experience
My first though seeing those little arcade cabinet keychains with the games built in was "That's perfectly scaled for action figures!" And my first though on the small table-top version was "That's perfectly scaled for Transformers figures!"
Only the crafsman could create his own tiny subscribers! I find to free off a stuck paint lid, just stand it upside down in boiling water let the paint soften and metal lid expand a little then it should come off easier. Thank you for another fun video!
or rap the side of the lid on something hard, turn it a little bit, rap it again...over and over...and then when it still won't open, do what you just said there.
Sometimes you can turn it upside down and put a little of whatever solvent it uses in the gap between bottle and lid to soften the crusty stuff holding the lid on. Might taker several applications but it's worth trying.
Just wanted to say thank you so much for your content! I honestly don't do any crafting at home, but your passion, way of talking, and editing style gives your videos a really relaxing quality that I love.
I would’ve been all over this as a kid. I was really into small, cozy spaces...mostly, for myself. But I extended that fascination to my toys, as well. One first toy lines I sort of “collected” was CareBears. I’d build little enclosures for them, made them a jacuzzi out of a small aquarium, etc and then I’d take pics of them with my mom’s old rectangular 110-style camera. Those were the days.
I just discovered the Museum of Working Miniatures channel about a week ago and thought "I wish Crafsman would make these". I feel like you read my mind.
Hey Crafsman, Did you ever have the 2 tv stack where the bottom tv the screen works and the top tv the sound works so you have to set both tvs to the same channel to enjoy you some Pinwheel
Oh snap! I like that! :D :D :D :D :D Never had the 2 TV stack but had a TV stacked on 2 VCRs, for sure. And spent a lot of time around a TV built into a wooden case with a flip-top that concealed a record player and an 8-track. It was at my grandparents' and was a big deal for the time they got it.
HAHAHA! We're going back through the Lord of the Rings and recently finished Return of the King - Extended Edition. (Mannn, I forgot how long that one ran. I enjoyed it, for sure, but I remember the first time I saw it there were like 5 moments where I THOUGHT it was about to end. LOL!) Can you imagine watching that on that TV? Mercy. LOL!
I really enjoyed tonight's episode. I am always amazed by your patience with all the itty bitty things. Your attention to detail makes your projects really pop! Tfs 🌻🌞
And here I thought you made it from scratch. A kit is just fine. I have some wood veneer strips, so I admire you using it, and that soldering iron trick is next level.
Crafman, I luv you and your vidoes. Thanks for the laughs. I love how you still play with your GI Joes. I never did 'get' the GI Joe thing, but then I'm a girl. Still, it makes me want to dig out my Midnight Barbie horse and got to town on decking him out with new tack. I did that once when I was about 12 years old because I put the original saddle on top of my lamp for display and it melted (cheap plastic Western saddle). I was so sad until I found some leather and made all new English tack for him, right down to the tiny bridle. All the best and I hope you'll keep on steady craftin'.
3:54 I still have the metal ruler I used in art school about 25 years ago. It's called Alumicutter. It has rubber on the bottom and one side is raised higher to prevent the knife from cutting you. Edit: I just checked and they still sell them.
Got some bad news today, but couldnt stay sad. That little TV is too cute to continue feeling upset! And I made my first custom toys last week! As always, i hope you have a wonderful week!!
And we all have had that sinking feeling when he said, "oooo, I had a feeling it might not come on" after you've done spent forever and a day fixin' something!
This is awesome!!! Id love to see you do more miniature work. Especially stuff that actually works like this. Ive always wanted to make a tiny tv for various action figures ive had. I always felt bad that they couldnt watch tv lol
I learned (at least) 2 new tricks, today; sandpaper on the back of the rule, and the heat bending of wood for tiny things. "A 'little' TV"! Lololol 😆 That caught me just right, Crafsman
This is so wonderful. I used the same wood bending technique back in high school woodshop when I made a violin.... (we didn't have an ordinary woodshop program). Those G.I. JOE's are really going to enjoy having this TV for their off time!
Wow I loved your G.I. JOE Edit! I hope you and your family have a Blessed day Mr.CrafsMan! Your are a blessing to me. Thank you for the upload. 50% of any answer is understanding the question.
Just found this video, and I need this tiny tv in my life. Looks like the kits are sold out, but the individual components are still available. Thank you Craftsman! Knowing is half the craftin'!
I absolutely love your channel and videos I just found your videos on UA-cam, I have a rather stressful job and every night when I get home I pop one of your videos on. The cadence and tone of your voice and presentation style is so relaxing. Please keep posting videos. Many thanks. Btw your square breathing video is probably going to help a lot of people. Cheers
This video was right on time regardless. it was there for me when I was feeling most anxious over another project and gave me a smile I needed. Thanks CrafsMan.
CrafsMan.... making my life, and the world, a better place... one tiny tv and crafs project at a time. Dang... your edge highlighting skills would make most miniature wargaming painters jealous... ;)
We wanted to thank you crafsman. You've helped to motivate and inspire us. We've always had a love for toys, customizations, mods, kit-bashing, etc. This video especially, has renewed interest in an idea we've had forgotten about since we were kids. So, thank you.
Hey, when did the crafsman introduce crafson? My grandsons and I were so surprised. We want to find the first one! Love, Love, Love the crafsman. He knows so much. I have encouraged my art students to watch him.
Mind Blown. If you want to make toys, then make 'em. Use the process to showcase the crafting. It doesnt always have to be toys, but whatever your project, Im sure you will learn something new or need to master a new skill. Thats why Ive been watching since the Sogmaster, it's watching you learn as you go. Ive seen you put together something special here with a unique niche, and a fantastic community. You are my favorite culturally ambiguous crafting puppet.
Top notch episode Crafsman, had me smiling throughout with this really great idea, and yes I think my Joes need one of those too come to think of it. Thank you for all the great work you do and keep it up!
Wow this is amazing! So darn cute and clever. Your attention to detail is so impressive. It’s the tiny details that make all the difference. Because details, is the only way to get all your vitamins ❤😊
I am in LOVE with that tiny TV! So cute! I'm about to turn an old bird cage into a fairy house and now I'm positive that my little fairies need a tiny TV... :)
I loved it, I loved it, I loved it! I have always enjoyed the craftsmanship that goes with miniatures. That is spot on! Also, you are so, so funny. Please tell Crafsfamily the Williams' are praying, thinking, and watching your videos every....single...one! We love y'all! Sister Gigi
As a guy with hands that do a bit of shaky-shake, this is incredibly impressive to me! Also, I really like the robot with a TV face idea. Maybe a robot with a TV head or something? Very cool B)

"You never know when you might want to... watch a little television." You are PRICELESS Crafsman!! Thank you for this!
Crafsman is literally the only channel on UA-cam where I have watched all his videos multiple times over.
And they never get old.
Fr though
Literally
I concur.
Ummm guess you never heard of the Angry Video Game Nerd
I think I speak for all of us that a full crafsman GI Joe episode voice dub would be perfected.
That dub cracked me up.
Yassss!!!! Need
I wonder if you could put a little dome of epoxy on the screen to make it look convex

"Have you ever felt like, your G.I. Joe action figures could use a little television?" I MEAN..... YEAH.
Funny you should ask that Crafsman, this morning when I looked at Chewbacca, I thought to myself, I wonder if Chewwy could use a little...

Yes, my 12 inch GI Joe needs a TV and a workshop of his own.
I never knew I needed a tiny television, I know better now
And knowing is half the battle!

Hey Crafsman, Did you ever have the 2 tv stack where the bottom tv the screen works and the top tv the sound works so you have to set both tvs to the same channel to enjoy you some Pinwheel
Yep. I think that's how old many of us are! 😆
Pinwheel old...
i had this as my first computer, it was a 1st gen sony vaio with a burned out screen and busted keyboard. sat it on a tube monitor.
Oh snap! I like that! :D :D :D :D :D
Never had the 2 TV stack but had a TV stacked on 2 VCRs, for sure. And spent a lot of time around a TV built into a wooden case with a flip-top that concealed a record player and an 8-track. It was at my grandparents' and was a big deal for the time they got it.
That little scream at the end of the GI bit was hilarious. This project is really great. Thanks for sharing TheCrafsMan
Crafsman. I always feel like watchin a little television when you are on.
This is great, and I'm going to clue my dad in to the sand paper ruler trick!
My day just became great!
5 hours?! Will, I'm gonna sit back and watch the The fellowship of the ring extended edition on my tiny TV.
HAHAHA! We're going back through the Lord of the Rings and recently finished Return of the King - Extended Edition.

I love that chrome ink, it smooths surfaces if you put on it on thick enough; like when you use a cotton-swab instead of a paint brush.
I reckon that's the best tiny little tv I've ever seen!
“You might want to... you know... watch a little television........”
That pause was perfect, it took me just that long to get it.
Crafsman never did a boring video for us😆💯

This is perfect, I was thinking about doing something similar. A kit like this would be the answer.
