"The crank came off..." Yep. That feeling of finishing something, and then you have to fix it less than a minute after you use it.

*ASMR: Kyle builds a wooden film projector to ward off the coronavirus and lull you to sleep*

I think it's why people like Adam Savage has his fan following. Seeing grown men and women break down into childish glee over new toys and creative endeavours is inherently captivating. It is an inclusive social feeling to join in the joy of creating moments.

It's yet another form of parasocial relationship.

You didn't build a projector. You learned patience, persistence, and self control. It reminded me of building electronic circuits when I was a youngster.

Right. I'm learning soldering. I've already used it to fix 2 broken electronics though, so it's well worth it. Right now I'm trying to use a halogen chip in an 8mm projector.

Nice to see an experiment with a different form. Also, quite sweet to see such a home-focused video right when we all need it!

This video project that involved so much going wrong turned into a very sweet, true video. I think if it were me, I'd have given up on making anything when the beginning involved so much frustration; maybe that's what makes you different.

As someone with anxiety, I appreciate Jourdain's "It's a cool toy!" I've been on both sides of worry that someone is mad you've taken too long doing something.

Hard agree! May we all be blessed to have someone like that in our lives!

This was lovely, Kyle. Thank you for including us all in this experience. Your content always makes me think; sometimes deep existenstial thoughts, and sometimes "Ooh, cool!" Both are welcome.

Beautifully said.

Always good to see a new Existential Crisis from the Sad Movie Man!!! in all seriousness I do love your content, it's always such a learning experience from you, and (just in case you have any fears of your fan base) it's okay if you don't go as Deep as you've been going...

I really loved this! I would love for you to do more of this sort of stuff...if your sanity can withstand it. I would have thrown a screaming fit 40 minutes in if I had been in your place...admiring your patience and self-control

This made me smile. Movies sure are neat.

Had no idea you were engaged! Congratulations, Kyle!

Good to see you again Kyle!

Another video by Kyle. Hallelujah!

This actually made me v happy, thanks my dude. Hope ur having a good one. Also hi jourdain!

Reminds me so much of playing with legos. Whenever I'd get to the point of a build where there was some working mechanism, I'd spend a good few minutes just fiddling around with it and riding the wave of euphoria that comes with building something - or even part of something - that works.

this is the perfect gift for one of my friends, thanx for the link, Kyle!

I was reading about Robert Paul just a couple of hours ago. Apparently, he built the camera that Georges Melies used in all of his films. Great video as always.

This feels like a nice, sweet tribute to film making, and all it's insanity inducing woes.

what a mood!

This was lovely! Thank you for going through all the hassle of assembling and reassembly and trying to keep your hands in frame. The few times I've recorded myself crafting my hands constantly drifted out of frame, too.

“Content creation” is one of my favorite new swears.

You got engaged? Congratulations, you guys!

Loved the video. Congratulations on your affiancement!

There's a scene in the South Park documentary "Six Days to Air" where Trey Parker is in his office working on the script for the next episode. He mentions how everybody else is waiting for him to finish because they can't get to their parts until he completes writing it for them first. This responsibility is obviously stressful. There's a Lego set on his desk that he's piecing together. He says, when the world is expecting a lot out of you, there's something soothing about being able to turn off and follow someone else's instructions to make something for a while. He points to other models on display that they've completed while on deadline

We are never to old to enjoy big boys toys..Awesome 👌

I got one of these for my Christmas. As it's Mother's Day on Sunday and we obviously can't go out, so I am recruiting my husband and child to do this while I drink.

When you showed how the Maltese Cross worked you answered an age-old question I've been wondering about since I was a kid. In this guy lies the heart of a mechanic. Thank you so much.

nothing like a cup of coffee and a healthy dose of longing for something i've ever known to start my morning at noon. thank you for sharing this!

thanks kyle

I'm impressed that only took four hours to put together 📽

This was actually lovely. Thank you for the video

I'm buying this 100%. It combines my love of film with legos in a way :)

Fiance!! Congrats, man!

Kyle , your video summed my experience up so well.

Ooh, fiancé? Congratulations!

I love your channel anytime you put anything up you always have something interesting to say

There is something special about using your hands and your mind to craft an instrument so beautiful.

I normally avoid unboxing videos like the plague, but thanks to the retrospective VO this was actually pretty entertaining!

Cool video. And thank you for telling me about ROKR, they have some cool stuff. I looked them up and ordered a clock kit to do during quarentine.

I'd seen this model on Amazon and I keep meaning to get it! Thank you for showing it off a bit and sharing your thoughts with us!

Dude you and your girl got engaged! Congrats bro!

That hi from you and your fiance was really cute

For my money, I'd just get the little Halloween decoration projector where you press a button and it plays a loop of a little Silly Symphonies skeleton dancing to The Entertainer.

YES! Capital L loved this video. More like it please. I mean, I'm here for the movie talk but, Kyle, you've become (and I mean this the right way) something of an internet personality and I appreciate even your unboxings.

thanks for making it, even if it's not your usual stuff, it was nice to see

As a crafter (I was assembling a crocheted bat as I watched this), this was an unexpected delight to watch. These are already on my wishlist, nice to have it confirmed. Apropos, its amazon page says 5-8 hours, so four hours is pretty good going. :)

this was exactly what I needed right now. Thanks!

can't wait for the premiere :D

Congrats!!!!!

I know it wasn't meant as such, but the ending was comedic masterpiece! Also, looking at it working (if for such a short time) was wonderful!

this was a lot of fun to watch!

Glad to see you back so soon :)

Well said about magic tricks and neat little toys

Continually impressed by your content, duderino

Congrats on the engagement dude!

This was super cute and congrats on the build! I've done wooden puzzles before (much much simpler ones) and am surprised none of your parts broke (which kills any interest in finishing since it wont be 'perfect' then)

Good gravy I want one of those projectors!

This was fantastic! I enjoyed every moment as I listened to your stress and tension, knowing a little bit of what that's like assembling some more simple yet annoying items (At least all the parts to your small projector fit together) , and trying my hand at VERY simple modding in a roguelike game, which ended up with me editing it OVER AND OVER AND OVER just to fix some tiny mistake I thought I had fixed. You did a great job Oancitizen. Thank you for sharing this with us Kyle. I am very happy to see you and your fiance are in good health and surviving well. I hope the same for all your friends and family! By the way, a thought. If you are starving for content, why not take a walk on the wild side? Planescape: Torment. It's on GOG. Just a suggestion. :). See you next video!

I came very close to ordering one of these myself. Very interesting.

I have a strange fondness for first-time reviews, reaction videos, and their longer cousins, blind Let's Plays. ... Ever played the Mass Effect trilogy? Want to?

Yeah, that guy where his wife had never played video games, but Breath of the Wild was fun and gave a good first impression Or that guy who'd never seen a crab before Recently saw someone listening to Hozier for the first time, there's just something fascinating about it. But I feel it should be enjoyed as the novelty it is, so I only have come across that kind of content very passively

I won't lie... I want one really badly now

My dad would love one of those

I loved this

Kyle.. I love your content... and I love your failure at putting this together.

Hang in there Kyle. Believe me I know, it's easy to spin in place feeling like there's no outlet. But, if this proves anything? It's that you still can. (Also I feel like this would have paired well with The Deadly Invention)

5 minutes in and already hitting the wine

HYPED

You're so lovely, Kyle. Loved the video. And I can smeeeell the anxiety oh God

I was a film projectionist for about 15 years. I bought the same model. As I was assembling it, I knew exactly what pieces I was looking at and could easily tell how all the gears and rollers would work together. It still took me about 4 hours to build the damned thing. Also, the splicing tape they gave me wasn’t very sticky, so I tried to use some old IMAX splicing tape that I still have. But my splicing tape was too old and just as lacking in stickiness. So I had to use scotch tape and try to burn through the spots where it overlapped with the sprocket holes.

As a past projectionist for our local theater, this product does appeal to me. Watching your video was great and entertaining. had to laugh. Now, tell us just how hard is this to build?

Unboxing video with class

Watching this reminded me once again how much I miss the phrase "movie magic."

It DOES look cool as hell

I found myself asking, "how did he time his monologues so well to line up with the speech from the original recording?".

I love this

I love this video

Nice Sondheim and Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (possible unintended) with "Grumble grumble" references. I got Sondheim before you showed the book. Fer When did the instructions say to mount the yellow pieces on to the metal rods? I may have missed that bit. I could not get these parts to stay on. F11 was a nightmare.

If you're hurting for new content, maybe try taking suggestions from your audience for inspiration. I really like how you sometimes talk about linguistics, what the origin and interconnection of certain words are. And I'm sure you have a lot of interesting things to say about the recent trend of Adult animations (such as Bojack Horseman, Archer, Rick & Morty, etc.) and their appeal, and what it is about Children's animations that resonate so much with many adults, and shows/Films that follow a similar trend as each other (such as The Adams Family, the Munsters, Disney Junior's Vampirina, etc) and how they're distinct from each other and reboots of the same IP. Heck, even a more heavily edited version of Digibro After Dark style rants would be something.

Delightful.

❤️❤️❤️

Literally just built this.

Good Love ❤️

movement-time-image aficionados

Hey I was really interested in buying this for a friend Kyle, I was just wondering where you bought it from and how much you paid? If you dont mind. :)

I built it but the film won’t move. The gear that is responsible for moving in either jams or just doesn’t go in the slots any idea how to fix it?

neat

Thanks

2:44 Rumble, rumble, rumble...mutiny, munity, munity

What's the size of the film? 35mm?

back up fiANCE??????? CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!

This is why I never guilt myself over my 10-year old boy moments

😡 the part I'm working on is really frustrating. I've just put the crank together and when I turn it the light doesn't work. Looks like there is no way for the wooden part that goes flat against the motor to turn the teeth on it. Am I missing something. HELP. PLEASE 😄

You should make a video about Disney's 9 old men.

Kyle! Kyle! Kyle!

Don’t mind me. Just here to help the algorithm.

oh

I don't see why this has to be a subject for instilling depression in the viewers. You and your brother have even more connections through, and I'm sorry for using corporate words here, "synergy" now than before, it seems. As a (software) engineer myself, it's important not to get so caught up in the failures that you lose passion for the art. It's just like making film itself - things can't always be perfect. Anyway before I sound too scattershot in the above train of thought I would like to point out that this is the first time I heard of this Maltese cross thing and it's nice to see a little more of how the mechanics work *at all*. Also this thing actually works, unlike some of the model Edison phonographs that Tecmoan tried to assemble...

Do you need glue?

If you need more content ideas just talk about more Shakespeare stuff that's always fun.
