Jeez... everyone and their brother is making tonks these days... 🙂. Looking forward to the video!

[@OdaVenom]

And no one else. I thought it's some kind of a new trend to make these, wanted to see what other people do... aaaaand there's two guys (or maybe one, I'm not completely sold yet) who are into that.

[@ralphheflin3001]

Right, they seem suspiciously simular 😂

[@BajkonurBobby]

@@OdaVenom Me too. 😭 Ive found four though. And a few fans on Insta. Maybe it'll come... In the words of Picard, let us: Make it so! 😄✊

[@lofiworkshop]

A beautiful tonk, Dan. The nest is a masterful touch. I really love the overgrown aesthetic you created here.

[@Dan_Does]

Thanks buddy! Had to try something different!

[@madmachanicest9955]

I love to see some mushroom monster soldiers to go with the mushroom tonk. That sounds cool as heck

[@BlareWolfgang]

I don’t know about everyone else, but I get excited watching your videos. This was an excellent episode, I was laughing the whole time

[@Dan_Does]

That's lovely to hear. Thank you

[@samwalker4438]

My first time here, thanks Dan, that is an excellent Tonk and an ace video! Not at all boring!! It was like a @BillMakingStuff video only narrated by Alan Partridge with a lounge Jazz accompaniment. -I hope your cold gets better!!

[@jacobnion2525]

Oh man I can't believe Bill asked you to make a tonk and you actually managed to make one that puts all of his to shame. Great work! Especially your idea with the spray bottle!

[@lucgav]

You really have surpassed your brother with this one. You are the Bill now.

[@rmcaparroz]

i think this schizophrenic episode has gone on for too long, we need to admit this man to a clinic until he stop believing he is 2 diferent man

[@paulwestern3687]

Bring back buck... error bill

[@rudolphbondefangerer5513]

A cold? In 2023? Oh man, that's so 2019. Most of us has moved on to Covid now days. Mutated covid that is. Covid is sooo 2020.

[@paulosborne6517]

That was bloody lovely - one of my favourite things you've built. I like the combination of Ghibli, WW1 and Fungal Horror. Also, your tonk looks quite a bit like an actual tonk - the Renault FT from 1917. PS -Those educational interludes you do are bloody hilarious and very much remind me of childhood TV.

[@Dan_Does]

Cheers, bud

[@craz2580]

The fact that Tonk is a meme with a monument about world war in italy makes it even more... idk

[@Maacckk]

It is uncanny how you and your brother have different accents.

[@littlebacchus216]

I'm here from TheCrafsMan's shout out... I'm not going to say it as hundreds have but I see the resemblance.

[@spacechimp5141]

this dude is just Bill making stuff, right? or his identical twin Dan making same stuff?

[@Dan_Does]

Bill asked me to make a Tonk!

[@spacechimp5141]

@@Dan_Does looks great Bill! I mean Dan!

[@leytonjay]

Make a Dalek Tonk! Cash in on all that Doctor Who 60th Anniversary traffic! Plus I'd really like to see one. There is an old style one with a cannon/turret and no plunger called Heavy Weapon Dalek, it is kinda Tonk-like, might work well as a starting point. ❤

[@Dan_Does]

Hmmmm

[@leytonjay]

​@@Dan_DoesJust looking at the Heavy Weapon Dalek now, love the chrome.

[@DrVesuvius70]

Always nice to discover a channel that's at the same time both new and yet also comfortingly familiar. I have a question for you other regular viewers: Have they ever been seen in the same room together? You'all know who I'm talking about.

[@Dan_Does]

Perhaps in some of the back catalogue of videos. Also, welcome

[@DrVesuvius70]

@@Dan_Does I really do dig the vintage kids tv art show animation aesthetic. Subbed.

Holy moly! Thanks so much, Buddy!

That’s where my BLK 3.0 went!?

This man reminds me of an other brittish person. Who also does/makes things... Can't remember his name though.. Bob? Ben? Billy? doesn't seem to important though.

Wonder what’s this Tonks story is

[@anotherzingbo]

Nice! It's got a lovely Studio Ghibli sort of vibe.

[@Dan_Does]

I'm glad.

[@richardhertz7345]

I reckon you ought to do your educational interlude videos longer format and add them to the channel. Surely they're ASMR or Anemoia or something.

[@winewithhedda]

I'm late to the party. Is Dan actually Bill's brother or is this some kind of prank?

[@Dan_Does]

No prank. I am a real person.

[@EdwinK-13]

Love it! Cant belive i wasted all that time with Bill. 😂

[@scumentertainment1994]

I feel attacked for you knowing I use these videos to fall asleep… the only videos I can actually feel relax and calm after a long ass day

[@mozephusscott6167]

I think Dan should have 8 million subscribers not 8k

[@Dan_Does]

I should be so lucky

[@euansmith3699]

15:45 Dan starts to channel the voice of Crafsman 😄 The Plant Documentary is wonderful. The finished Tonk is a beautiful bit of work; though I do question the thinking behind mounting the engine on the front of the vehicle, unless the exhaust is used to wreath the Tonk in smoke.

[@Dan_Does]

Heeey! That isn't the engine... its sci fi... its the glove box or summit

[@LtColShingSides]

Was the Bill or Dan?! Are they the same person?

[@Dan_Does]

No.

[@bxfrommx]

I love how any mention of this "brother" you're occasionally alleged to have is answered with devaststing sarcasm or just the most deadpan factual tone. No in between.

[@bxfrommx]

(also cute tonk, love the Nature Reclaims aesthetic)

[@Dan_Does]

Thank you

[@Matt-md5yt]

Glad you made a tonk also. Now you need like 3 more to play with Bill

[@richardhertz7345]

Yes! More Tonks from Dan!

[@freddywilliams9837]

I can confirm I have fallen asleep to a few Dan Does videos. There's something extremely calming about your voice and the choice in music...

[@jerrybailey5797]

An eco friendly Tonk , looks like it was abandoned with all of that growth on it that bracket fungus , wild flowers and a birds nest 🪺 .... 😮

[@SgtMaj22]

I can't believe you installed windows in your Tonk, it will need updates every 4 days now!

[@johnnyspeed4623]

Drat! I'm with my sister at the library and missed the live stream. It's going to be so much worse now that it's more than an hour old, stale, viewed by several, perhaps DOZENS of randos before me. I'll probably catch dysentery or covid from it now. SMH 😢

[@Dan_Does]

Huh?

[@johnnyspeed4623]

@@Dan_Does The video's not live anymore, all these PEOPLE have come and looked at it with their EYES 👀. Like that's hygienic, watching something that's been out in public view for so long, THAT'S how you get a VIRUS, that is. 🦠🤒

This is my first Dan Does video, but I can't be expected to believe this isn't just Bill making stuff, just not depressed and locked in an attic space

[@Dan_Does]

What this comment is doing is negating all of my efforts. Bill is my twin, but the weeks of work that went into this video is not just some throwaway side project of Bill's. I know you didn't leave this comment to be mean, but I hope others might see this and consider the offence it can cause.

[@nathanbridle3177]

@@Dan_Does I'm a little dumbfounded to discover your reply to my crap joke. If I'm being 100% honest with you, I've never heard of your channel before. This video was suggested as I've been getting interested in tonks. Whilst watching (and very much enjoying) your video a thought occured to me that you look incredibly similar to bill, and your demeanour is much lighter, so I made a joke. I didn't mean to cause any offence, and I certainly didn't mean to do anything other than interact and support your channel. Knowing more context now and reading what I wrote, I can understand how it may have come across as mean. Sorry x

[@Dan_Does]

@nathanbridle3177 I'm sorry, it's nothing personal. Your comment just happened to catch me at a certain point when I'd had my fill of similar comments.
