In this video I build an imporovised dwarven foundry, forge type thing using some cheap action figures from the dollar store. Great bit of easy DIY terrain for tabletop gaming.

Thank you so much for the collab! Awesome build, as always! Your crafting videos played a very important part in my return to the hobby after many years, and thus eventually in the creation of my Patreon! I'm extremely excited I could eventually take a small part in building your crafting empire 😄

[@Bluecho4]

Dollar stores apparently pick up a whole bunch of strange toys wholesale. You never know what they might get. For this reason, crafters need to pay attention to the stuff that finds its way into their local dollar stores, and pick up things when they have the opportunity.

[@broadcastbard]

This is a really fun bit of terrain and very colourful for a setting. My only real critique is the colour of the molten material implies it's either lava or molten aluminum. Iron melts when it is white hot. Remember that colour of a material indicates the amount of heat, not the state of the material. Iron is forged at orange, aluminum is melted at orange.

[@Sorrowdusk]

Hmmm. Most people probably don't know that. That and people internalized the ending scene of Terminator 2: Judgement Day

[@MomirsLabTech]

My lord Jeremy, this is SICK. 🔥 Also, Dollarama seems way better than the US equivalents. I'm big jealous.

[@MossyRiverRock]

This is one of my favorite projects you’ve ever done! You’ve definitely put way more work into other things that probably look way better to the trained hobbyist eye, but to me a lay person who aspires to someday have the space/regular gaming sessions to make something like this it’s just so awesome. I love dwarven aesthetic and themed stuff and turning those toys into this piece is so cool to me,

[@MonkeyJedi99]

Something I almost missed - That dwarf has a REALISTIC war hammer! Not an anvil on a log, but a sleek and deadly war hammer! Squee!

[@largefren843]

I think the duller glow is fine for this, copper/bronze has a much lower melting point than iron and steel so it doesn't glow nearly as bright when its molten

[@russellperhamii2629]

OUTSTANDING! Really good build! Thanks!

[@ThatGeekyMaker]

[@TheZildo]

Back to your roots, I love it! I've really enjoyed watching your progression as a creator but this video had a nostalgic feel to me and gave me all those warm fuzzies that I felt way back when I first stumbled onto your channel. Its all great content and entertaining, but builds like this take me back to the wide eyed wonderment that I had when I just started crafting with your videos some years ago. As always, cheers and I'll see you next week.

[@justesjones8414]

I like how he used elder futhark for the runes it really is the best language the germans ever used

I'm going to be pedantic and say that it's a family of scripts, not a language. I do, however, agree that it's great.

I love this build, A smidge of black on the bubbles in the lava would really make it pop. Your figure painting has really improved a lot. The goat riding dwarf looks rad.

[@josegasset6068]

That was a great project and video! It reminded me of your earlier work which got me into the channel in the first place. Using ordinary affordable material to make extraordinary gaming terrain and set pieces is very very cool, especially for the budget gamer who can’t afford or justify getting the upgraded crafting toys. Bravo! Keep these vids coming!

Your concept was wonderfully creative but your execution of it raised the bar. We see you maturing as an artist/creator and hope that by ingesting the wisdom you impart we will also enjoy that same growth process. Very well done project.

[@FallenSailor]

It’s lo-fi by your standards but I love it. There’s something to be said for building something you can’t buy or they don’t make out of bits. I’ve built an Apparatus of Dreadful Construction, Apparatus of Kwalish, airship/seaship hybrid for Eberron, in this way, and would love to see your take. I think my next kit-bash will be a tarrasque. Thanks for the great clips over the years...you have all the genius and none of the smugness. You are truly an inspiration!

[@Kraleck]

Would love to see dollar store golem laboratory pieces. A small forge for casting metal bits and bobs, a vat for mixing clay, a clear cylindrical tube for growing flesh samples, a block of raw stone, racks of tools (for sewing, stonecarving, metalworking, leatherworking, etc.), and a shelf of parts for various golems. You could easily remove limbs from cheap action figures of varying sizes and paint them to reflect the appropriate golem materials (flesh, clay, stone, metal). Depending on the uses, it could fit a mad alchemist's tower, a wizard college's classroom, or even an assembly line for a bio-mechanical army.

[@jackzacher4420]

Hey Jeremy, thanks for the video! In case you didn't know those Vallejo model metallic air paints also work really well with just being brushed on. They're probably my favorite metallics!

[@lindybeige]

So... they heat up a lot of metal in something above this container, then it pours down from that container into the upper one shown here... and then they pour the now-cooler metal out of that container into an identically-shaped lower one. If it solidifies there, that will be the end of the use of the dwarf statues. If it doesn't, then why didn't they just cut out the middle transfer container, or use its higher location to pour into moulds or the like? I think the cheese hypothesis is strong.

[@leewat3742]

I was a little surprised to see you here old chap. It made me think I haven't watched your channel for a while, so I'm heading there right now :)

[@SPD3DPrinting]

thank you for another great video! The Printing Goes Ever On has a fantastic group of models. I enjoyed your explaining the build process from "what am I making" to final product. have a great day!

[@zeugenberg]

Hm. Sorry, but: Hm. The seams on the dwarves should have been filled and the way they hold the upper container makes no sense and the gold spray is on the sloppy side and.... I want foam buildings 😞

[@george5483]

Man our dollar stores suck around here.

[@TheAlienmorph]

Honestly... this just needed some extra minor work like some seamlines smoothing on the dwarfes and some minor detailing on the sticks and plastic containers to make them look less like what they were. For a quick craft, it really does look cool

[@triplet7788]

I was thinking of using wrapping for resin molds and also bunkers. Glad to see you do another dollar store challenge!

[@Stixanimated2]

I love your videos so much, they’ve truly been the highlight of my pandemic. I don’t do tabletop gaming, but I have been keeping my sanity building miniatures/dioramas over the last year. Your videos are always fun to watch, informative and have sparked creativity in me, so thank you very much for making them.

[@smoessmee]

Looking great, if I try something like this it might be cool to have some old weapons or armour melting down in the molten metal. Only thing I don't like is the fantasy fetish for Dwarves riding things other than horses and ponies :D

[@techadeptcrafts]

Thanks for the info on the sponsor. They look great! The diorama is cool. I cannot find a good dollar store for toys. So I love seeing what you do.

[@NorthlightMiniatures]

[@VengefulV2018]

This would make an awesome battle spot as well as an environment.I can already see my party members battling here while gave goblins attack.

[@johncware66]

If you made the tank at the bottom interchangeable I could easily imagine some dark dwarves about to pour molten metal on top of the innocent Chained down at the bottom of the receiving container. That would create some tension in a combat. Every round the arms with click and upper that would rotate slightly. Great build Jeremy

[@Berserkerworks]

If anyone points out the mispelt rune just say its cus of an axcynt

[@duvanok3277]

Oh you mean an ACTUAL dwarven forge. Nice.

[@macewen1]

Don't sweat the runes man. You didn't actually write anything. Norse (futhark) runes do not translate directly to the English alphabet despite what numerous people would have you believe by publishing incorrect correspondence information. You can't translate a written language that uses pictograms into English phonetically. It's why so many people end up with tattoos in Asian characters that either don't mean anything or have meanings wildly different than the person was aiming for.

Here in the UK, a guy went to a Chinese tattooist who wrote 'This is a very stupid boy' on his arm.
