Welcome to my random collections of videos. I am a hobby woodworker, R/C airplane designer, and have worked on several high school stage productions with my kids. Enjoy the videos of my wooden boat build and some of the sets and props I've designed and build for the stage. I work with Fusion 360 and AutoCAD and have started to dabble in 3D printing.
Set Design for Brighton Musical's Production of Disney's High School Musical
Here is the set design and construction for Brighton High School Musical's production of Disney's High School Musical.
The auditorium was opened with the school facade and steps set. The main set pieces were 7 double sided, rolling walls with lockers and school scenes. These are pretty versatile, and they were used to set multiple classrooms, hallways, locker room, and the cafeteria. We got a good deal on actual lockers from a local sports complex that was renovating. Some lab tables and a few school desks on casters rounded out these scenes.
The gym scene consisted of a set of angled bleachers (that were fun to build!), a large backdrop, and basketball hoop. For the "Get your head in the ...

BHS Musical Newsies, Once and for All, "The Big Push"
Просмотров 1568 месяцев назад
This is the climax of "Once and for All" where all 3 towers push forward with the whole cast singing. It is a wall of sound, and it still gives me chills. These clips were shot from backstage by Markus Vogt, whose daughter was in the production. This is from the 2018 BHS Musical production of Newsies. See my other videos for more on the set design.
Home Office Coffered Ceiling
Просмотров 101Год назад
Here is a short video of a coffered ceiling that I installed in my home office. The room is almost square at approximately 12' x 12' and has a 9' ceiling. The basic structure is 2x6s with some short blocks to help align the sides and caps of the beams. Due to the window "bump out", I built an addition beam to finish off that portion of the ceiling and keep with a simple 3x3 grid. The 2x6s were ...
Guys and Dolls Set Construction

This is a slide show of the set design and construction for BHS Musical's 2023 production of Guys and Dolls. The main back drop for several scenes of the show consists of 10 flying pieces that resemble the grid work and sighs of 1950's era NY billboards. It was designed by Jeff Von Buskirk and uses forced perspective to add depth and interest. The 4 large signs have a variety of lighting and th...
Mostly DYI Master Bathroom Remodel
Просмотров 67Год назад
This is a remodel of my 19 year old master bathroom that is mostly DIY. I contracted out the tile work, since we selected a large format tile and the last time I worked with similar tile it was very physically challenging. The old tile was pretty dingy, the raised tube deck is kind of dated, and I was certain that the shower pan was leaking around the door sill. We played around with several ne...
The Ruby Slippers

This is a behind the scenes look at how we made the Ruby Slippers disappear on stage for the 2022 BHS Musical production of the Wizard of Oz. We started with some mannequin legs that we found on Craigslist for $10. These were mounted to a plywood board. The board slide out from under Dorthy's house on a pair of pipes. PVC pipe strapped to the ends of the board road on the pipes. Two ropes are u...

Winner of the 2022 Sutton Foster Awards for Best Set Design for a High School Musical! This is my set design and construction for the 2022 BHS Musical production of The Wizard of Oz. This was a pretty complicated show with a lot of rolling pieces and a few hundred feet of LEDs. Dorthy's house is 6' x 12' rolling cart and has movable features to make it look like it has been through a tornado. T...
Taliesin Desk

This is a desk that I built for myself a few years ago. It has come in handy lately since I'm working from home now due to COVID-19. It was inspired by a design by Kevin Rodel. Many thanks to Dan Melander for help with the finial drawings in Sketchup. Construction is solid cherry with some walnut accents. Mortise and tenon joinery is used throughout, with several wedged tenons at key points. Th...
White Christmas Giftbox Test
Просмотров 714 года назад
This is the first stage test of a "giftbox" for the BHS Musical production of White Christmas. The Box is approximately 10'x10'x10' and needed to hold 10 actors. On cue, the top of the box opens and then the actors push open two sides and dance on out. The rolling base is typical 2x6 and 3/4" plywood on several heavy duty casters. The back walls and top of the box are 2x4 framing with 1/4" Luan...

This is a compilation of the set construction for the various set pieces for Brighton High School Musical's 2020 production of Cinderella. The set was designed using Fusion 360 which allowed me to render all of the scenes for the directors. The interior and exterior set pieces are typical rolling carts with 1x4 and 1/4" Luan (underlayment) construction. We tried something new, and put a "tile" ...
Newsies Set Design and Construction

Here is a behind the scenes look at the construction of the sets for BHS Musical's 2019 production of Disney's Newsies. The set design is based off the Broadway production designed by Tobin Ost, but with a far smaller budget. Everything was designed and modeled in Sketchup. 48" diameter wheels for the newspaper carts were laminated from 3/4" plywood with stair spindles for spokes. The two small...
Giant Clock for BHS Musical production of Cinderella

This video is an overview of the construction of a 12' diameter clock for the Brighton High School Musical production of Cinderella. The directors needed a large clock to help fill the space. It needed to be lit from inside and be able to move on cue. The face was cut from six 1/8"x 4'x 8' sheets of white Plexiglass (~$600). Electrical tape was used to add an elegant design that carried a gothi...

Looks beautiful
Hey, I've been asked to make something like this. Could you please share the blueprints?

Hi what fabric did you use to cover the rainbow. Many thanks
@@peterlegg3568 We bought "diffusion" fabric from Rose lighting supply, but I think any white, polyester fabric would work as well. We were just trying to reduce the glare from the LEDs and blend the colors a bit.
How big were the roman numeral numbers?
I think they were about 18" tall
Amazing! Planning on doing this in the upcoming year and would love this design! Could you share in email?
Clearly, they had a healthy budget.
@reallyyouthful It definitely helps! We've built up the program over the years and sell out 7 to 8 shows in a 900 seat auditorium. We've also been able to sell a lot of the sets after the run to offset costs.
Outstanding set! Love the Basketball Drop! Well Done!

What does it wiegh roughly. Just curious
About 150lbs. for just the hull

Hello Jim! Very impressive work you got there! Do you still share those blueprints? If you do, I’d really appreciate it if you send me those! I’ll leave a message to your email as well! Again, awesome work!
Absolutely stunning craftsmanship. She sounds and runs really nice.
Hi Jim, I've wanted to build a wooden boat for well over 15 years. I've always liked the look of the classc runabouts, and have finally purchased the plans for the Squirt. I wanted to thank for posting your build progress on the Glen L forum. I learned, or have gleaned a lot of information from you and those who posted questions or answers there. I still need to do a little more research before I start and was going to get the Building Plywood Boats book that Glen L offers. Do you think I should also purchase the Boatbuilders Notebook, or would that just be redundant?
There is a little more in the notebook on motors, but for the most part it covers the same stuff.
I would to purchase the plans for the Motor Mechanism and clock hands I have to build two 8ft Clocks for an upcoming chorus concert for Sandy Creek High school. Thanks

Nice boat!!!!! Great job!!
Congratulations where to find the plans please.

Extremely talented and creative
That's ingenious
Hey Jim! I would love to take a peak at the plans. I couldn’t find your email anywhere on your channel. How could I get ahold of you? Cheers
Hi Jim. Awesome idea and would love to get the plans as we are putting together an Aladdin performance later this year. Thanks so much
My email is listed in a comment below.
I know it’s a long shot but is this still out there somewhere? For sale?
We have the plexiglass available, and I can give you the plans.
We also have the electronics and center pivot.
Hi Jim! I'm doing some set design work for my daughter's middle school Oz production, and I'm shamelessly using several of these designs. May I ask where you got the wagon wheels for the Marvel cart? I'd like to make something similar, if a bit smaller (only me & 1 other parent working on this stuff) but I can only seem to find full blown wagon wheels that are $175 each, or thin decorative wheels that probably wouldn't take the weight.
I'm not entirely sure, but I think our props team found them on Amazon. They we less than $100 if I recall. Otherwise we have found similar wheels on Craigslist and FB market place.
Hi Jim! Really cool rig! My school is doing Aladdin this year! Do you have the plans for this? or is it still for sale?
We still have the steel here in Michigan. Email me for the plans.
Awesome! What is your email address?
Hi Jim! I love your design! I was wondering if I could get the plans
Emailed them to you, enjoy!
I would love to get your design…I cannot find your email in the comments. Also we are in central Ohio if you would have anything you would love to sell. Thanks

Hello, Jim! I have done lots of searching to finally come across your genius, artistic and accessible engineering of how to make this scene truly magical! My question is… do you still have the flying carpet contraption… for rent or for sale? I am in San Francisco and our production of Aladdin would love to have your genius for this scene! A huge thank you already for the video… but I try not to reinvent the wheel if I can avoid it :) I hope this message finds you well and I lope to hear back from you! Best, Jorell Chavez
We still have the steel, but we are in Michigan. If you can arrange shipping...
Not sure if you will respond but i have question about the weight and projection, one how heavy was it to move did you move it by hand when you needed to move it, two what did you use for brick projections did you happen to find projection screens that fit your space?
I estimate each tower weighed about 1200 lbs with the kids on it. Check out this video for the electric winches we used to move them: ruclips.net/user/shortsX6RU0I_dk7k We used 12 heavy duty 6" rigid casters on each tower, and two people could easily move them if the winches failed (We had people standing by, but never needed them). Two large projectors were overlayed on top of each other to punch through the stage lighting. The content for the projectors was created by the student graphic arts department. The projection screens were made from "solar screening" which behaved like scrims where they were opaque when lit from the front and transparent when lit from the back. The screens were on custom built rollers and powered with small, geared motors. Limit switches stopped the motors at the top and bottom, and a dimmer pack connected to a relay allowed them to be controlled from the light board. Let me know if you need more information, I have CAD drawings of all the pieces we built.
Hi! This is an amazing build! I am planning to do the kids version of this show at my elementary school. Would you be willing to share the plans for this?
Yup, just email me (address in one of the replies below) and I can send you the plans. We also have the steel laying around as well if you want to buy it.
Hey Jim, 2 questions....what did you use to glue down the laminate, and what did you use to create the striping between the planks? Thanks....Jack
System 3 Silver Tip epoxy and the stripes are epoxy and microballoons.
Hello Jim! This Flying Magic Carpet is Fantastic! Do you still have the information on how you built it? If you do, would you be willing to share it with me please?
Yup, just email me (address in one of the replies below) and I can send you the plans. We also have the steel laying around as well if you want to buy it.
Hello Jim!, I showed this video to our drama teacher and she loved it! Would you please share the plans with me too? I’d like to build it. Thanks in advance
Hey Jim. Love your rainbow, so HOW did you lay out the rainbow curve/design before cutting it out? We are doing something similar, and I figured why reinvent the wheel, if I can get layout info from you, so we can get our wood laid down on the floor and the rainbow drawn out on it for cutting. Thanks for any info.
The rainbow was 11 sheets of 3/4" plywood. They were laid out on the stage and taped together. Two screws were driven into the stage at the center of the two arcs. The inside arc is centered 2' above the outside arc. Then we just used a tape measure to mark the arcs. Use a circular saw set to cut just over 3/4" deep to cut the pieces. Set the plywood on 1" Styrofoam to keep from cutting the floor.
@@jimyoung5759 so the 2 screws were basically "bottom & center" of the rainbow? Is the base of your rainbow wider then say "top center" ??
@flyweed the outer arc is centered at the bottom, so it is a true half circle. The inner arc is centered 2' up, so it is more than a half circle. If you look at the photos, the rainbow is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. I think it looks better than a constant width arc.
@@jimyoung5759 ahhh, gotcha. that makes sense. so what did you do about the plywood" seams, where they overlapped the next sheet? did you cut them to butt up flush with each other?
one last question, so the bottom/base of either side of your rainbow is 4ft (full sheet) width, and then narrows as it goes up? correct?
Did you ever sell this unit?
We still have the steel, but the rest has been disassembled
Thanks so much for posting! I'm directing a production this summer and would love to build something similar to your YBR. Could you tell me what kind of casters you used, and where they were attached?
I have plans available for the YBR. It s basically 3 plywood stairs stringers with luan bent around the front and back. The 5" casters are attached to each end (3 per side)
Magnificent job. Does it keep accurate time? I always dreamed of making a replica of the Cinderella castle clock in Disney world with the planetary circles on the hands
As accurate as the Arduino. Should be +/- 0.1% or better
beauty! would be perfect with a 2cyl looper on it. 40mph and plenty of power for a skier. that little 10hp (cant be an 18?) is great on gas though the 40hp would be similar at cruise.
Wow!!!!!!!
Thanks!
@@jimyoung5759 I've seen a lot of Productions of the Wizard of Oz and this is by far the best stage setup I've seen.
That is a beautiful piece of work. Clearly a labor of love. Congratulations 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Каким материалом обклеивается фанера?
Эпоксидной, видно что прозрачная. Автор в первом комментарии это говорит
i haved watched newsies so many times, and everytime i watch it the set blows my mind, just the three main building moving to suggest multiple different setting in nyc is amazing.
Thanks!
This is beautiful! Any chance it could be made available to rent?
The entire set has-been sold to a school in Alabama and the will probably be on its way to Arizona after that. We are considering selling the plans for the major pieces.
@@jimyoung5759 do you happen to know where it might be located now? We are doing this show in June at our HS, and would love to rent this set!! It's great.
@@flyweed it may be in Arizona by now.

Please 🙏 record this show and post. Looks Ozsome ‼️🌹🦋💖👑💎🌟

Do you have the full show? This set design is incredible!
Thanks! The licensing for the show prevents posting the entire show. I'm not sure how other schools think it is ok to do that.
COuld you post the tornado scene?
