I think Pat should start a KZbin channel of his own :)

[@CoolestThing]

We agree!!!

[@kardis6787]

He could easily do what the Lego channels and/or minecraft channels do and just timelapse his projects.

[@CodeOverReality]

He would no cap have millions of subs

[@mrreef2450]

I hope someone influences him too

[@operation1968]

Damn right. As an aspiring matchstick model builder I'd watch it in a heartbeat

[@Chrispy9393]

This guy is awesome. I'd love to see a live steam with a camera pointed down on his bench to see some of this stuff come together. I really love the glue on the side of the table. That's a mark of a true craftsman and real love.

[@MOONRAK3R23]

A True Master of his Craft!!!

[@wayneh1455]

Wow,what a great passion and talent to have.

[@AngelaPaulina1989]

This guy needs his own show or KZbin channel for sure! He could even offer to sell a workshop where he teaches others how to do this!

[@dionneh3046]

THIS MAN IS BEYOND AMAZING 😘🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@KaiSchroder-vk7un]

You are truly a gifted artist! Amazing detail, pure genius.

[@roxstix]

People asking him to paint his creations have no idea about his labor of love and expression to details.

[@CalvinHikes]

Rule number one, never listen to people's comments.

[@radicalfilmz647]

He’s so awesome! Just the nicest dude as well.

[@silvergirl7810]

I guess he doesn’t get tired of it but man that a LOT of hours doing those!

[@lisad476]

Just so beautiful and wonderful

[@hannesaltenfelder4302]

There exists a dremel, which you can switch on with your foot. I'm sure this would be a huge time-saver😉 And you can hang the dremel-body from the ceiling with a counterweight.

[@jay7sa]

Very cool

[@Captain-Nostromo]

I have two questions. What kind of matches do you use? And what sort of glues do you use? You are awesome man 😎 I scratch build airplanes from soda cans 😀

[@CoolestThing]

You can ask him live right!- Cheers- Guy www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/qcy8f4/my_name_is_patrick_acton_and_for_the_past_44/

[@01worldguy01]

..just based on my personal experience with human beings ...YOU MUST BE EITHER INDIAN OR PAKISTANI because nobody else ever is asking this kind of stupid question

[@chigypt]

❤❤❤❤😊

[@Menown7]

wait till he discovers you can buy ready to go ply wood panels at the hardware store

[@Osiwan960]

plot twist: he has a secret colony of trained ants to assist him 🐜

[@CoolestThing]

Lol I'd watch that!

[@deeznuts6499]

finaly

[@mbgrafix]

How much do they sell for?

[@CoolestThing]

He's live now if you want to ask! www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/qcy8f4/my_name_is_patrick_acton_and_for_the_past_44/

[@mbgrafix]

@@CoolestThing Thanks

[@bond7459]

It would be amazing if he can build The Titanic.

[@MH-eu9iw]

Hope he has fire insurance

[@thejunkguy4655]

Wonder when hes going to run out of matchsticks arent they discontinued now?

[@CoolestThing]

He bought a massive amount before the factory closed. Like 6 million. Told me he was going to retire when he ran out. Lol - Guy

[@tonywebb1403]

People pay tons of money for trash modern art banana taped to a wall a crucifix in a jar of pee but real art like this

[@ujjuwr2785]

He creates unique art that no other in world does, so asking him if it's worth it, shows that you (interviewer) has no sense of art and passion.😏

[@CoolestThing]

To be clear it was my cynical cameraman who asked, not me , lol

[@bluecitybluetube3890]

Make a female

[@gugomajo4161]

It's not art, is modeling

[@adamsteiger9999]

Please repent and believe the Gospel. The time very short. John 3:16-21 (16)For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (17)For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (18)He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (19)And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (20)For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. (21)But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
