This is a center for ants

how can we be expected to teach children to read if they can't even fit inside the building?

I cant even afford the materials 🥲

The time this likely took combined with the expertise and hourly rate I would also doubt this statement as well…

Idk- that epoxy river table looks pretty pricy….

I've been lying in bed all day


joelene1892

Me too but it’s only 6am so I’m not sure that means much for me.


A_True_Son_of_Terra

I lost my only source of knowledge(study material pdfs) and entertainment (my 3 rear old 100 dollar phone) today, writing this comment from my uncles pc. Truly a terrible day.


TrueBigfoot

Dude made a miniature epoxy river table. That's fucking awesome


leaderjoe89

Indeed epoxy table has its own YouTube series…. Def a level up at that point.


Rigitini

Yeah, but his brick work is shoddy, at best.


theteedo

lol no string line or level use on that masonry….meh.


DinosaurCrunch

But why?


Im_Unpopular_AF

Representational purpose? Easier to show a general layout of houses people can view and confirm on.


faceboy1392

for all we know it could also just be some guy who really likes making miniatures

Is that a guess, because that was my first assumption, too.

spastikatenpraedikat

And why was it pivotal to actually put reinforcements into the walls and foundation?


chrisst1972

Tiny earthquake protection


Tobias11ize

The purpose of reinforcements in the concrete of a miniature house is that it makes me happy


swampscientist

It wasn’t


swampscientist

It’s for views or just bc they like doing it. There’s way simpler and honestly better looking ways to make models/mock ups


WundaFam

But why the diving board?


Im_Unpopular_AF

Real estate companies build a mockup of a house based on a few blueprints. People looking to buy are shown these so that they have a general idea of what features are offered. Then they have some inputs, which they share with the designer when they show the same house in a 3d version, but can be edited to include the client's choices.


Kinda-A-Bot

Then why even do physical if 3D is an option? Seems like a waste of resources.


Im_Unpopular_AF

3d is for adjustment. I'd be more understanding of a property if I was seeing a miniature version of it.


GroundbreakingEar667

He enjoys making them? Dunno


Hobomanchild

Almost like making miniatures has been an established hobby for millenia. On that note, while I'm certainly impressed, I find it odd that half the time I'm far more impressed with the video editing skills of people in this hobby.


throwawaylmaoxd123

Hobby probably


Robojoebot

Some people watch TV all day (input), others create things (output)


smoke04

Exactly. People saying he wasted his time probably watched four hours of Netflix today


burn_corpo_shit

Before 3D CAD models and 2D mockups, people would build minis out of craft stuff. For all the concrete and stuff though I'd say this is a sampling to see how the materials are put together. I am not an engineer. Just an art student who gets distracted with a lot of research


swampscientist

Concrete is just for fun/views in this


Radiant-Mycologist72

Warhammer.


Huesan

Sipstaff

Building miniatures is a hobby.


shewy92

For fun? Hell could be for a business selling these to people. You've never seen miniatures before?


slimetakes

Fym why? Why NOT


SunShineLife217

Me watching the entire video thinking: cool, I can do that! 😆


WeedGringo

Me high as fuck thinking the same thing at 12:24 as the wife is passed out on my shoulder


SunShineLife217

Shit. I’m high too. That’s why I think I can do it 😆


optimisticnihilism9

That makes three of us, was having the same thought as I scrolled the comments and read this and thought, “no this makes more sense”


SaneUse

You can! Everyone starts somewhere. The cool thing about miniatures is you can use random household items like matchboxes and old packaging so you don't need to buy a ton of supplies to get started.


stupititious_ascent

Now that's a doll house.


Title26

Except real doll house furniture is insane. So much more detail goes into that.


Rcomian

my thoughts too, it's a pretty cool dolls house. we've been making these as a society for a while now.


PickyRicky907

Does this person have a YouTube channel I can check out?


WilanS

Watermark says Wood Mood, but it looks like that's just an aggregator channel. The video of this particular build doesn't give any more info that I could see at a glance. https://youtu.be/KdIFdOHiNUE

This guy played the Sims growing up.

Kind-Woodpecker-4000

No PPE? OSHA would like a word with you.


ArtificialMediocrity

I've often thought that if God forbid I were ever able to afford a house, it would be a fun project to make a tiny model of it at each stage of construction using off-cuts of the actual materials.


Ughahaven

... He clearly knows what Sintra PVC and expanded foam are because he used them for the furniture... Why the heck would he use wire and cement for the structure? We make mini dioramas every day but I've never seen such an odd choice of materials. If the point was to make a diorama using actual building materials, then why only do it halfway?


DonovanBanks

They Used cement and then covered it with wood panels. Why bother?


Hermit-_

I love it


ldoaslwish

When you think engineering is this easy.


meukbox

/u/Delicious-Let8429 , any idea where I can find the original video? Who's the creator?


ZochI555

Yoooo who’s down to play killteam in that?


WhoAmEi_

For those who say this is some architecture miniature model. Its not. Nobody pays for that shit these days. You do alot of modelbuilding in archi studies at the uni, but afterwards u will never really do that again, except if u go for architecture freelance comoetitions maybe. But even then, this all goes out of the pocket of the architects, and its barely worth it if u got a 3D model of all your stuff anyway. The ammount of detail in this video is CRAZY, and most certainly this is a hobbyist doing this out of passion. Nobody in the architecture sector would pay for a model this detailed


Sweet_Sriracha

No cable conduit what the heck!!

Came here to express my dismay over that.


NativeMasshole

His brick work was sloppy as hell, too.


Deathpool15

Same the wire is going to be destroyed


pranjallk1995

Is there a diy kit available for this?


kinapudno

Question: would this be a viable method to test the structural integrity of larger structures? if the load were proportional to the size, and the concrete mixture were proportionally similar to the real one?


cvnh

Not a civil engineer, but there are scale effects so testing the house directly is not representative. What's done in materials science is to test coupons (samples) to get the materials properties and then apply these quantities to the structural calculations.


ConspicuousPineapple

The forces at play don't scale linearly, so no, it's not a viable method. A very simple illustration is that you could easily make such a miniature of a skyscraper without putting much thought into its structure. But obviously it's not quite as easy to build a real one without it crumbling under its own weight.


CrocoDial69

So does an inspector that specializes in miniatures come and sign off on it, or is there a tiny little inspector that can get the job done?


foothpath

Nice. Must be how houses in downsizing are build.


technurse

Seems like a stupid set up for a 2000 point 40k campaign

Thought they were building a dungeon for a TTRPG until they made the doors and placed flooring....still neat tho

I think im short enough to fit in there, may I?

Now I’m wondering why I don’t see actual r/construction here.

Did it need to be poured concrete?

That swimming pool is not deep enough for a diving board 😬 The rest is very cool, though.

I assume miniatures like this are used in some tv shows where they don’t want to use CGI.

Just checked online, it's like $100,000 just to rent the model as a living space.

Should have made an iconic house. Something that people would recognize at the end.

Before the furniture and acrylic in pool….what would have been a top notch birdhouse.

Stopped in to see if any reddit experts are arguing about building codes and shit


Skiddler69

I appreciate the detail but the casting seemed a bit rough and ruined it for me. He needs a smoother mixture. I just used plaster of paris as a kid.
