[@dgambo1985]

Thank you for this video. Very inspiring. I spent so much of my youth building sewer playsets. Had the official one but preferred my own builds as they had more space. Now I've watched this, and nearly 40 years old. Time to build a new one 😂

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you so much! This was my first project so I have since built better ones. I have built the better ones for other people so I still have this original in my display. Keeping my first project means a lot to me because it shows what I have learned in the process. I will always cherish it. That’s pretty sweet you built your own! Hope to catch ya back for future projects!

[@dgambo1985]

@thomasgoesnostalgic currently bingeing your channel. Great work brothe👊

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

@@dgambo1985 thanks! Just subscribed to you and you make some funny content! That Last Action Hero video literally made me laugh out loud

[@dgambo1985]

@thomasgoesnostalgic what!? Seriously? You didn't have to do that mang. Thank you. Truly appreciate it. I've been intending to do a full video of last action hero toys since precovid. Thanks again. Means a lot

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

@@dgambo1985 well I will be looking forward to that! Never had the toys but always wanted them so I can live vicariously through you. If that movie comes out I watch it every time without fail

[@michaelrtraverso]

DAMN! that brick carving! that must have taken forever. attention to detail is 10/10

[@emilflognoid1532]

Trick for temperature control: I bought a cheap six foot extension cord, a metal exterior grade outlet box, and a dimmer switch… You put the switch in the box and cut the cord in half…(i recommend actually cut 12 inches or so from the female end) Run the cord into the switch box and then out the other side with the female end (obviously with the dimmer as an interrupt between the two sides of cord) From there plug in anything and you can control the power level with the dimmer I use it to regulate temperature on a soldering iron, works great!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Oh I actually never thought of that! Thank you!

love those figures! would love to see NECA rerelease those turtles and OG bad guys. Great video!!

[@Roadpigjohn]

Looks very cool man😀💡👍

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you! I’m going to revisit this one again since I think I’ve grown in my skills a little more. Hopefully it will help others make one for themselves too!

[@jessicaking7985]

It’s the cool shirt for me cuz!!!!

[@Roadpigjohn]

I think we need a tutorial video on how to make those brick walls 🧱 man...😀💡👍

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Haha it’s coming and I’ll discuss how I do mine specifically. Some people like to measure exactly to scale but I think doing the sewer bricks a little bigger

[@Roadpigjohn]

@@thomasgoesnostalgic fantastic man 😀💡👍🧱

[@SouthernSoloBelle]

So cute

[@jdioramasjdioramas2814]

[@GENXPERIENCE]

Great seeing ya, Thomas...and love the new channel. Very much up my alley. Here's to your success.

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you sir! Been keeping up with yours and lovin it!

[@ToyAttics]

Looks so good.

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thanks dude! This was my first one so I definitely have learned some new tricks since then

[@ymleggo]

Your sewer layer diorama is awesome! Makes me want to create one for my figures!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you! I would definitely love to revisit the sewer since it was one of my first projects. I wish I had my space lengthwise to add more rooms but this was the project that started the hobby for me so I say, if you want to get into it go for it!

[@thadiuspennington6574]

Nice Job !!!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you so much!!!

[@brianlopez2539]

Very cool! 👍

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you kind sir! Been really trying to build up this display! Been one of my favorite things to work on

[@c-lo_g446]

Crazy dio man!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you!!!!

[@pollos123]

Nice

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you!!!

[@ALLYNINE]

Hey! Curious what you used to cover the holes on those sewer entrances?

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Air Duct Flanges 6inchs pvc. There are others ways to do it. The only thing I don’t like about them is you have the cylinders are two inches long so they kind of stick out. You could cut them off and sand the edges smooth. This was my first project so I just kind of lived with them being longer. My next episode I’ll show different ways to do them. The flanges are about $10 each but there are more economical ways to do it.

[@Justincredibletoys]

I love it and highly motivational!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you! Hoping to incorporate more instruction along with some history of the whatever I am featuring. Thanks for watching!

[@HoTSh0t24]

You did a great job man! Looks awesome 👏

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you! Hoping to revisit the lair again now that I have gotten a little better! Trying to learn something new with each build. Thanks for watching!

[@AlphaProto]

That looks good. I see that diorama in NECA's displays and have always wanted one of my own. This give me the know how to do make my own.

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Glad to hear! Share when you do and have fun! Lots of awesome builders out there with great Sewer Lairs if you need inspiration:)

[@mr.x1774]

Thank you!

[@Marktrax17]

I went to college with this guy! Subscribed! Keep it up Tom!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Miss you bud!

[@jedijays]

We need measurements. What does each brick measure? The diameter of the round doorways?

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Hey there! So it depends….when I did these sewer bricks I did them more like cinder blocks…I do 1inch tall by 2inch long. The air ducts are 6inches in diameter :) hope that helps! I’m future videos when I truly document each step, I will go more in detail and post links to the products

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Here is the link to the air ducts Vent Systems 6" inch Air Vent... www.amazon.com/dp/B08GYLF4H6?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

[@dqvidrestrepo3952]

What kind of foam do you use? Where do you buy it?

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Insulation foam…can find at hardware stores

[@kup98ss49]

Rad. Thanks

[@nighttrain621]

Love this, dude. Now that my colelcting is winding down, I'm looking to start displaying! Curious as to what type of magnets you use? Dude, I meant to post this on the other video with Technodrome. Thanks for letting us know! Again, brilliant video!

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

I use two different kinds- a brand from the Dollar Tree and a brand from Hobby Lobby. They are circular magnets. I will try and show them in the next build I do! Thanks for watching!

[@jice201]

That shirt is dope who makes it?

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

Thank you!!! It’s from the company RSVLTS. They make some awesome stuff! I bought the old bedsheets and actually made them the curtains to my toy room!

[@jice201]

@@thomasgoesnostalgic Ahh dope I’ll check it out thanks

[@mrmilk-fluff]

So I'm making this sewer again and I'm going to wreck up the couch the chairs and the table to make it look like someone threw it away

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

That’s awesome! Are you doing a toon dio or movie? This was my first project so I didn’t completely know what I was doing. If I were to go back, I would make the whole couch out of thick soft foam. Like foam used in like a memory foam cushion. Maybe someday

[@mrmilk-fluff]

@@thomasgoesnostalgic I'm making the movie version

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

@@mrmilk-fluff nice! I have made two movie dios but not for myself. I would definitely love to try to make some dios once I’m done with my cartoon dios

[@gotyoasspussy4404]

What did you use to attach posters to wall

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

I think I used just a very thin layer of hot glue. If I were to do the same today i would probably just used Elmers glue but either works!
