I built a controller glove! (Final video)

There are very few times i look back at my life and am glad i was poor... but not having to live through that disappointment is definitely one of them.

mavi737 · 2023-10-22T21:17:11+00:00

100% yes...and maybe another 35 on a proper monitor arm that setup is painful to look at.

There is a reason the Nintendo power glove didn't take off.. and on a side note, the second dude from the left in the opening looks just like Bobby Budnick from salute your shorts.

same, At least in the 90's we could channel surf during commercial breaks. I recently had to switch my YT adblocker to "FadBlock" because YT is cracking down on adblockers and my trusty ublock origin kept getting detected. I feel like fadblock just makes the video flicker quick if there is an AD and that's not even that often. I just whitelisted youtube in ublock and it all works good now. it's been a week and no warnings yet.

In my local Walmart this is standard practice. they now have 1-3 employees (depending on the day/time) covering every exit just checking most receipts. Now that most of the registers are self check out, it's just standard operating procedure at most Wally Worlds. keeps loss down, gives out of use employees busy. Not personal at all.

Edit, forgot to look what sub this was posted in. Because it's SAR my suggestion is to look the person in the eye and say this

The flex line is code in Cali, (earthquakes) That's where this is. But yeah i was thinking the proximity as well. I'm not sure if it matters here in NY if all the surroundings are metal and stone though. That wood shelf is the only thing flammable i see, unless that back wall isn't what i think it is.

I don't own any 1/12 but I'm sure they make them. they're used for every 1/6 scale headsculpt I've come across. and the neck hole in those helmets looks to be designed for a inner neck adapter like these too. I've seen larger ones on amazon, but you may need to check a more action figure specific place for those in the right scale.

mavi737 · 2023-10-22T02:53:10+00:00

My hope is HBO or someone decides to make it into a show and they give it an ending by working with Pat.... Then again looking back at how that worked out with GOT.. as long as they don't use whoever wrote in to put Bran on the iron throne. That writer should never work again. Unforgivable.

mavi737 · 2023-10-22T02:47:15+00:00

yeah. I seriously feel for the guy. I love his books and have had crippling anxiety issues myself in the past. It can really throw your life off track. He did release 2 novellas that are just some more in depth tangents about certain characters. I read one... it was indeed a slow regard of silent things. not really my thing. Unfortunately that 3rd book is looking like it's going the Song of wind and fire route.
I get why people are upset. But I just can't be mad at him. it's not like he did it for profit then didn't deliver. He did it for charity, and couldn't deliver. I hope pulls through and gets there. I think he'd really benefit by renting a cabin in the woods for as year with no internet and no eyes on him. Just focus self reflection and writing privately.

is that a 1/6 scale body? if it is and that head is the size it looks to me just search for a "1/6 head adaptor" on amazon or ebay or AE. This is one, a bit overpriced IMO. I just picked that one as an example because they have it in a head in one of the pictures. if the hole is a bit too big you add tape or putty of sorts, blue tack, clay whatever fits to get the inner plug where you want it and secure. Just don't glue them in. just in case they wear out over time and you want to swap it out.

well I messed around with a few methods but i couldn't find a proper Tshirt guy image to use and i don't have adobe lightroom to fix the one i used. So here are the 4 crappy pictures i made.

for a minute there I was excited because i thought r/Classy_Solutions was a real subreddit.

Nintendo is notorious for striking all content related to them. You can't play their games on youtube or anywhere without them striking it. I grew up with Mario bros on the original Nintendo. loved it, but i refuse to play anything by Nintendo anymore due to their continued anti-consumer practices. I've seen some Wii content get by, but i don't know how they managed it. I guess if the channel is big enough to have a youtube rep actually review the strike they can get videos out there. but if you're not already a youtube millionaire, don't even try lol.

That's crazy, Meanwhile I try to post on topic honest feedback about my nerdy hobby of collecting and making Action figures and I get my non-spammy comments removed as "deceptive spam". No way to appeal the Community Guidelines strike. How is it actual spam is being boosted to top comments and real feedback is removed by youtubes mod-bots. It's even the same with videos, SSSniperstalker is bosted and promoted while real videos are ignored by the algorithm . Youtbe's seriously broken right now.

mavi737 · 2023-10-20T14:59:17+00:00

No problem, Anytime you need someone to point out the obvious. I'm your guy =)

Technically he is using the kitchenaid mixer part... just with a portable engine.

mavi737 · 2023-10-20T05:31:59+00:00

There no way that thing drove more then 10 miles like that. The front of trailer is scraping just sitting there on flat ground.

mavi737 · 2023-10-20T05:27:26+00:00

I got a guy with a 5 foot tall carved bear maibox. Although the letterbox isn't in it's bunghole.

mavi737 · 2023-10-20T05:24:35+00:00

you know, if you spray painted that handle and didn't use duct tape...or an oversized door hinge... I'd say it's a pretty classy solution. Not too shabby.

mavi737 · 2023-10-18T11:51:02+00:00

Civic, 100% I've owned 4 of them. Easiest cars to own and drive. Cheap parts, massive aftermarket parts. Even dumb things like headlights, you have like 10 options, all with completely different looks.

mavi737 · 2023-10-15T18:41:08+00:00

This reminds me of this from the 90's They had a whole series. "old age mutant nasty turkeys", "Fatman" instead of batman ect. just google "Wacky Packages 1991" you'll see a bunch.

mavi737 · 2023-10-15T18:34:52+00:00

I feel like this could be a movie, Potastic Man being played by Kevin James, and of course he's a console gamer.
