Thanks for making this. Not all of us have fancy money for circuit cute and printers but we do have packing and “garbage” . This shows everyone that a few simple tools can create really wonderful components.

I really like these windows, especially the one you aged with the mixture of dirty black paint water and orange paint. It looked so realistic after you wiped most of it off, and left a subtle look of rust and ageing. It's amazing what you can do with some old cardboard and plastic packaging. This is what I love about making miniatures. Love from Amanda in Australia

Ok, first up… these are beautiful and I can’t wait to try your techniques on a gabled roof that’s half windows. And secondly… I made stair stringers today, ALL THANKS TO YOU. I’m very grateful. Your math helped me figure out in 1:36 scale… 6” risers / 12” treads / 12’ ceiling height / in 21’ or less. I’m making a model house I’ll probably never be able to build, but can’t get it out of my head… so making it out of cardboard. I’ve never done this before… it’s so much fun. You have the greatest job ever. Thanks for sharing your gifts and expertise. 🙏🏼💞

Came to your channel for information on integrated LEDs into diaoramas... Loved what I learned and couldn't believe how many little things from our interests and curiousity in similar subjects, the seeing things for what they could become, even that AH-HA!! moment we became aware that mini-modeling can take you to another place-a place where time slows down and the ADHD is harnessed a bit. Here I am 3 or more hours later, just a few hours before I need to be getting to work.... Stuck in the rabbit hole of Oilers Workshop, wondering just how damn hot your wife has to be if your dog is that ugly!? She's gotta be SMOKIN" HOTT... like a full send 12... Love your channel, can't wait to get off work later and soak up more!! JK please don't be offended about your wife, but the dog hit every branch on the way down.. no lie
