Coming back to KZread will be an uphill struggle since I've been gone for so long and KZread has weighted my channel downward because of it. I want to thank you guys for sharing my content outside of KZread since it's not going to be discovered easily in Search anymore until I get my numbers back up where they were. So you guys have no idea how important you are to my success and come back here on KZread and ultimately I'm returning to Twitch also. Therapy has been a huge part of my recovery and I recommend it to anyone that is a target of constant online hate. It helps you understand why people feel a need to attack others and find fault in others to help ease their own pain and mask their own problems and I now understand it which helps make it less painful. Just remember next time someone is going crazy saying crazy stuff that they are choosing to stick around and do that meaning they want some kind of a connection with you and they don't care if it's positive or negative they just want one. So you can pretty much bet that person has their own problems, their own struggles and could use a hug. I'm trying to realize this myself now and be a bit more empathetic towards these people now. I love all the people that bring so much positivity my way, honestly, it's what keeps me wanting to do this forever and ever! ♥♥♥♥♥

Thank you so much for watching this video and I hope you enjoy the #DIYGasm series as much as I like to produce it. I plan to venture out into all my old categories like 3D printing, VR, Gaming, Coding, etc over time but I'm coming back from a long break due to health reasons that aren't fully resolved (talk about them on my Patreon openly) but I'm working through them and I'm just looking to entertain people and stay productive.

Make sure you read the video description for updates on this project before starting since I'm going to try *OTHER MATERIAL TYPES* after this video!

Lmfao! And epic setup in the bedroom!! I need this setup damn it! Lol

2 videos in as many days??? I'm dreaming... but it is a good dream

Update 9/9/19 - The electrical tape was a bit shiny so I decided to try some flat black painters tape after someone recommended it and I found some and it was much easier to install and ultimately looked way better than the electrical tape. If all you have is electrical tape then give it a go, it left no bad residue like people were concerned with that I could see but the painters tape went on super easy and because it's flat it's a better match for the black painted wall if that matters in your configuration. I linked the tape in the video description that I used for my 2nd try and on my 3rd try in 2 weeks I'm going to paint the painters tape with Black 2.0 paint to try and make it even more light absorbing. Keep on trying new stuff and let me know how it works for you!

20min to install..4hrs getting rid of the mess electrical tape leaves behind

Only Barnacules can make a video about taping up a TV interesting and funny 😏

Glad to see you posting more to KZread lately. I really enjoy your videos.

Matte black vinyl wrap (hopefully you can get a reasonable amount and not enough bulk to do the whole house), hobby knife, credit card to get into an crevices, i think it would come out really well( i did a wooden lid for fish tank a year ago with sharp corners and rounded edges and still going strong with heat and moisture)

So happy to see you posting again Jerry! Absolutely love that setup you got going on in there.

I'd probably go with gaffers tape so it doesn't shmoo up the bezel with adhesive, but I can understand not wanting to pay for a different tape if you already had electrical tape on hand.

If you have to buy it anyways, do it properly and get black felt tape. That's the same stuff you'd use in home theater projector setups.

@Barnacules

Jake Lile I agree, but WD-40 on a clutch makes the shmoo go away easy when you remove it. I took it off just to see what residue it left after a few days and there was nothing. After months or years though I’m sure it will.

The black felt might not be a good idea. My wife pointed out that felt attracts dust (and cat fur) like a magnet.

Glad to see you posting again, looking forward to some more diy, car, 3d printing, tech stuff and of course a return of Batknife (but please sharpen it) lol

That is why you always wait for the end credits... LOL Thanks for sharing been nice seeing ya get back into the swing of things.

Funny! The moment you mentioned the issue you were having, my immediate thought and I mean immediate thought was to use Electrical Tape!!! LMFAO!!! I guess great minds think alike?

dang! that turned out lookin pretty sweet!

Hey barn why not plastidip the edge. Should be less reflective then the electrical tape

Can't wait!!!!

keep em coming

Gotta admit...good to see a couple videos from you Jerry!

Great idea...

Should be interesting :)

Fun video. Welcome back :) 100% agree with the silver bezel - purchased an LG TV over a Samsung about 6 months ago for that exact and only reason (I have a Samsung QLED computer monitor and love it).

Thanks Jerry, videos, man more videos, please

You look really good!

Awesome video! I might use this trick in the far future. I currently have a TV and PC monitor with completely black border, so no issue. But if I upgrade in the future, I might need some tape magic.

love seeing new vids keep up the great work!!!

is it possible to mask off the screen and paint the borders flat black? or try black loom tape.

Great videos recently.

yessss please make more videos barnacules. been missing you for a while and enjoying the new uploads

How about TV calibration video with i1 Display PRo? However not for HTPC but for Xbox and movies :)

This video and the last one have both been in my inbox. Sometimes youtube works like it's supposed to.

You're a better man than me, I never would've had the patience to do anything other than mask that off and spray paint it. 😂😂

Barnacles how is the blooming on that tv my sony 900f when on a black screen with white blooms pretty badly but unless you have an oled you got blooming.

It's not bad at all but nowhere near OLED. The brightness however on HDR content blows me away compared to OLED even the second generation but they are getting closer. Check out the Samsung Q9F, that screen damn near looks indistinguishable from the OLED.

Two videos in two days? You are spoiling us. It's great to see you making videos again! I look forward to seeing even more from you! Black gaffer's tape or duct tape would have worked much better (and definitely less reflective in the case of gaffer's tape) but sometimes you gotta work with what you have and electrical tape is definitely better than nothing in this case.

DIYGasm and JerryRigged is all about working with what you got most of the time. I hated looking at the bezel, I was going to try and fix it and I recorded it and shared it. That's how I've always rolled 😁

how abt painting the edge with black paint itself? tvs have short span neways.

12:05 "BEEFCAKE" had me dying

What kinda of bed lifter do you have?

Given how *expertly* you painted your car, I’m surprised you didn’t mask off the screen/back and spray paint that bezel black permanently. :P
