How to Build a Mines of Moria Infinity Box Book Nook
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 авг 2024
- I've wanted to use mirrors to make an infinity box for a while, and I figured what would make for a better setting than the Great Hall from the Mines of Moria (aka Dwarrowdelf)? It's the smallest book nook I've made, with the fewest 'components', but I think it might be the best one yet, if I don't say so myself (and I do).

If I were to do it again I would definitely find myself some fancier mirrors though, as these cheapo's from Ebay are a bit too funhouse wonky for me, but I still think it turned out great!

This guy: makes 1 set of columns look like infinite columns
Gimli: That still only counts as 1!!!
Very good!
Perfect. Just perfect comment.
Ahahahaha! Yes!
That would make "North of the Border" Legolas. I would take it :-)
You have my like.
Now wire the LED to turn on with a voice activation set to "Mellon"
Neat! In order to conceal the “gap” in the center of the pillar that can ruin the illusion, try using a FIRST SURFACE mirror. So named because the reflective layer is on the FRONT surface rather than on the back. The “gap” appears as 2x the thickness of the mirror due to the silvering being on the back. When the silvering is on the front, there is no thickness to reflect through so there’s no visual gap. Nice work!
You mean the mirrors pedophiles put in hotels to look through 1 side so that can watch you shower
Neat tip
This comment is one of the most helpful tips I've ever read ❤
I’m a little confused, how does this work exactly ?
@@GoofBall-bu1hv When you position two mirrors face-to-face, you get a repeating reflection of a reflection called an “infinity mirror” effect. Unless your viewpoint is actually in between the mirrors, you won’t see too much of the “infinity.” However, if one mirror is a half-silvered (aka a one-way mirror which is reflective on one side but non-reflective on the other) you can position the mirrors face-to-face, look through the BACK of the half-silvered mirror and see the “infinity tunnel.” Since most mirrors are silvered on the BACK, any item touching the front surface will be reflected but you will also see a gap between the object and its reflection which is twice the thickness of the glass. If the mirror is silvered on the FRONT (aka first surface) any object touching the front will show NO GAP between the object and its reflection. Look up “infinity mirror how to” if you want to find out more.
I would like to see your studio / closet. Seems so be a pretty compact, self-contained workspace.
It's about as functional as I could hope to make it (it's like a frankenstein's monster of bits and pieces of furniture, shelves, tools, etc). Maybe for my 10,000 subscriber celebration ;)

This is an older video but for Adam.. who doesn't really plan things.. to have to plan it.. and it look awesome.. is beyond good enough.
I was showed when I didn't hear " tiny nerdy things " and I had to stop what I was doing to see when it's from ❤️
I've had this cute dwarf mini for months and wanted to do something Moria-ish for him. I had a vague idea to do something with mirrors and pillars but everything I came up with seemed meh. And then this video pops up! Clear, inspirational and funny, I immediately subscribed. Thank you for the awesome build!
Right on! You'll have to let me know how you get on!
Have you done it? How did it turn out?
Amazing! The false mirror gave it an impressive finishing!
It made filming without my face getting in the way all the time a challenge, though 😬
Okkkk.
@@NorthoftheBorder you could use a full face mask, robbers ski mask style lol
Watching your older videos and newer videos is hilarious 😂
It’s like two different channels and the newer ones feel like parodies
Dude, I would probably look into this thing all day long... Super awesome
I watched this with my 7 year old nephew, when you’d finished he commented ‘this is the bestest thing I’ve seen ALL DAY!’ We also both agree that this is an awesome build!
That's awesome! Now you guys can make one together!

Do you have the pattern you used for the pillars available to download somewhere? Would be very interested in making this 👍 Great Vid.
I would also love to see the plans you used. I would be willing to pay for those.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful world. I love the atmosphere inside the box. The mirrors give it real depth.
You didn’t indicate the scale that well. maybe a little tiny figure to give the sheer scale of the pillars
Such a wonderful build! The mirror effect is amazing.
You inspired me with your Skyrim booknook to start building miniature stuff as well (stirsticks galore), since you made it seem so simple (as in, you can just start with a few basic tools), so I've been building tiny furniture for the past week and absolutely loving it. Can't wait to slowly build up my arsenal of tools and materials and start taking on bigger projects. I finally have a hobby. That's new.
Thank you for showing your process so well, and always providing a materials list. I really wouldn't have known where to start without your videos.
That's awesome! I'm so happy to hear you've found yourself a new hobby (albeit, a time consuming, at times incredibly frustrating hobby)! Collecting tools and materials is the best part.
Oooooooook.
I love the moments in these videos where we catch smiles and waves
I have never been able to get over the sheer monumentality of the architecture in the LotR universe. It has always fascinated and horrified me just how unbelievably grand and fucking massive it is. I think you doing the stairs at the front REALLY helped portray that.
Another outstanding production sir. From the build to the commentary... very well done! Really look forward to your videos.
Thank you kindly! You keep watching 'em, and I'll keep making 'em
Seeing your videos want me to try making a LotR Book Nook too! Keep up the great work!
That's what they're here for, and there's so many great scenes from those books/movies that you've a wealth of options for book nooks.
This is simple yet simply AMAZING!
Also.... I REALLY want a book nook!
Have you finished your book nook?
Wow looks great! I've got an idea when I saw it with a light on: two warm yellow leds in the torchlights on the columns instead of one light in the celling. They could make it looks even better.

@Alexander Branson It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account!
@Vance Leon You are welcome =)
This is amazing!! Also a tip...if you ever have shiny surfaces, rough them up with sand paper or cross-hatch with the blade(just obviously be careful w/the latter), and glue should stick fine! Thanks for the awesome make!
Your glamor shots have come along way!
That strange moment, then you remembered those runes from the extended edition of LOTR books and translated then as "KazadDum". Fill myself 15 yo again. Nice!
The inscription on the big doors (west gate) was actually "The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak, friend, and enter. I, Narvi, made them. Celebrimbor of Hollin drew these signs." :-)
This video is literally what inspired me to do book nooks/dioramas.
I would have loved to see the fire of the balrog in the distance, just a glimmer... But amazing
Yes, that would have made it even more awesome. NerdForge used a fire effect with a diagonal one-faced mirror for her "Infinite Library" Book Nook, he could do something similar here. Or maybe for the next project.
The effect you achieved is truly mind-boggling! It's so impressive!
I'm not a big enough LOTR fan to build this, but the design is great and could easily be adapted for other things. I love it.
This is by far my favorite thing you've done, and I live all of your stuff 💖
The fact that he has a shadow of things to come made me subscribe
Echo* but yes!
Very clever effect! And great job with the columns, looks very dwarfy!
Thanks! Dwarfy is the best type of Architecture
This is so cool. I’d buy one of you had them produced. Super neat idea and finished product. Keep it up!
Looks fantastic! should try an anti-reflective coating on the outside of the front mirror. Might help with the glare/reflections of the room to make it more transparent towards the inside.
Good idea. I think it might have been the quality of the two way I used as well--I didn't want to spend too much on something if I wasn't sure how it would turn out. For the next infinity box project I'll be a bit more comfortable getting something a tad better.
I have a whole shelf of Tolkien, and now it needs this nook!
Well it's just sitting on my shelf gathering dust...
@@NorthoftheBorder Do you have an Etsy shop or anywhere you sell these? I think you'd be able to sell quite a few!
You are my crash for this week. The way you put every column to its correct place with one fluent move. Just... man.
Editing out my mistakes helps it look a lot more fluent than it is
Lovelly!! And brandon sanderson is the best writer ever!!! 😂
you could use those mirrors to make the occult object known as "The Devil's Toybox" essentially a box with mirrors on all sides that when closed demons supposedly makes noises inside the box
It's called a Pokeball nowadays.
You mean a TV?
@@I_Don_t_want_a_handle uhhhhh what?
Superb work, both in the project, and in the video presentation. Instant subscriber!
I love this one. Maybe revisit it someday and add a teeny tiny fellowship walking inside of it.
This is too epic. You really blew this project out of the park! Super impressed with the result and I loved watching you make craft! Very inspiring.
Cheers! I'm glad you liked it, I was really happy with the end results!
I'd've put teeny-tiny characters inside, just to really emphasise the sheer _scale_ of the *Mines of Moria,* but otherwise it's a truly amazing job!
I love that you said "I dunno... je ne sais quoi?" which literally translates to "I dunno, I don't know what" which never really answered your initial I dunno, even though it sounds like an answer. I love learning bits of French you notice funny things.
I've seen computer cases that use this kind of mirroring too for the front face, looks really nice.
GameMax Abyss probably the best example of it I've seen.
This is so freaking cool, the effect it makes is incredible! Absolutely stunning!
Your voice remembers me of “welcome to the night vale”.
Nice vid
True. I personally always thought it had some serious Garrus Vakarian tones.
this is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time, I absolutely want this!
I don’t know why this was suggested but man that is beyond cool!
Looks like i can just walk in it.. that is pretty nice to see you make that.
New to your channel
Love your work and your sense of humour 👍
Welcome aboard!
Really impressive Work and a pretty smart Idea!!! Respect!
The turtle from the never ending story with The boy in the tree in front of it ..... AWESOME!
looks great ! while watching this vid, there comes the idea to make a different box with an infinity gauntlet and use it as a blueray box. thanks for this
Oh wow, this is fantastic! Was thinking up ideas for a LOTR themed book nook and this is real close to (but way better than) what I was thinking! Also awesome to see another Canadian Hobby Channel out there!
Another Canadian, eh? Watch out world, THERE'S LITERALLY DOZENS OF US!
@@NorthoftheBorder DOZENS!
i love it when you post
Now I could use a video on how to convince my wife to implement this in the living room lol
just tell her its cool and you like it! that should be all it takes!
It's 3:00 am in Florida. In my dark bedroom. Watching this magic unfold before me. Amazing 🤔 hands down..
It's like looking down the hall. I was waiting to see.. The red eyes 👀 of the Belrog. Fly you fool's..
When I was little I deciphered the Dwarfen alphabet cause I'm all about that nerd life. 😎
The ‘scored’ pun scored you a subscriber, well played sir!
Looking good there Adam
I seriously want one of these SOO MUCH
You have to admit the turtle from the never ending story would be AWESOME!
That is awesome! Just the process.Way cool.
next on my list of things i will be doing ! awesom work as usual!
Now there's an eye-opener, ain't no mistake...
Super cool. I've always wanted to make one of these things. This one might be the closest to something I could pull off. Thanks for the idea.
Do it! Apart from some paper and a couple mirrors, there's not much to it, either!
I'm starting my own project. Go wish I could show it here but., This video was extremely helpful.. I love the detail and your base knowledge of The Lord of the Rings such as the 90° angles versus the rounded look for the dwarfs.. I wouldn't have thought of that. Anyways, you do a d*** good job. Thanks for the info, keep making them ill, keep checking them out.
Pimp, yo! And they call it a mine, a Mine! Love it!
Felicitaciones por estre GRAN RESULTADO! 😊... yo colocaría las letras directamente sobre el dintel de la puerta para que se aprecie el perfecto acabado en piedra... y, tal vez no entendí si es indispensable el vidrio tras las dos primeras columnas... si no afecta el resultado, yo lo quitaría !!! 👏👏👏👏👏
I like it a lot ! Thank you for sharing
Great work. These things are so unique and clever.
Seriously, amazing work dude!!
It looks like a real place that you can go in
That is really awesome.
Awesome piece
That was really very cool!
Brilliant, live this affect
That is just insane!!! Great job dude!!!
I enjoy your projects - creativity, attention to detail and craftsmanship is outstanding. On this project I understand the huge scale of it, just would have maybe used nano leds and made torches on the columns with a flicker circuit(?) and a little plant growth / fauna at the entrance, and wear to the rune text. My thoughts anyway... Great job!
Looks fantastic. Excellent work.
Cheers!
Oh man I saw some Feist up there on your bookshelf and then Sanderson!!!! I love all those kinds of novels but Sandersons books are just so, so good.
It's amazing !! and your work and tips just using papers is really cool
That is incredible! You must be an architect! So precise, I'm in awe of your talent!
Very impressed,
Andy, Annmarie's husband
You could cut thin glass panes to the shape of the pillars before gluing them in the corners. But in any case, a great job and an interesting idea👍
Awesome Work
Amazing works, brother. Congratulations!!
✨FaCe ReVaEl✨
That was great! Thank you.
Such an epic job, fist bumps from Ontario :)
Oh man, that’s fantastic
It's beautiful I liked very much
Awesome idea
This would have been super cool if you’d made a front door for it that turned on the inside light when it was opened.
I love your work
Very cool !!
It's soooooo perfect! I will definitely make the same one for my bookshelf! Thank you!
Right on! You'll have to let me know how you get on!
I have to try this for mi Gimli's funko. Thats ****ing awesome
Such an awesome peace of amazingness !
thats so cool. I'll try and make my own but for interstellar with an astronaut behind bookshelves.
Oh dude, this is so coool!
You read the licanious trilogy! That’s my favourite series
