His newfound obsession with brass is pretty wholesome.

After aluminum
What's his next obsession going to be?

Friendship ended with aluminum now brass is his best friend
i watched him for hours but i never built a thing from it. like this is just therapeutic for me to watch.
Sometime I listen to his voice.. just to get sleep
I managed to actually make one thing - the sunlight from an old TV, highly recommened. Other than that I just realy enjoy these videos
@@lewisfilby2394 Ohhh, that project was the one I was most interested in (also, it was the most feasible for me). Glad it worked out well for you!
I couldn't agree more👍
Same! Also the Led backlight sun lamp is my favorite!
The final product looks amazing, good job!
But for anyone attempting this kind of metalwork I would recommend adding some transparent nitrocellulose laquer after polishing the housing since brass tends to build up patina quite fast. It can be removed though but with the paint job done upfront the brass will maintain its finish.
So unique . . . his projects feel so professional. The only reason I could tell they’re DIY projects are because they’re so unique, but I really love it,
Can we appreciate that he has to shoot The intro after building the project and act like he's gonna build it twice
.....or he films it out of order, and then edits it together like that, rather than having to do it twice?
@@ExarchGaming The unknown power of video editing...
@@TimeFlyBy yeah... this one made me kinda confused. He's clearly doing a voice over(dub) and there is nothing in the video that suggests he's doing it twice.
he builds the project, gets his b-roll and then edits it together while dubbing over the video stream. I guess there are some people that aren't familiar with how video editing works, even if it looks like common sense to us.
@@ExarchGaming hence "act like".
@@alexanderjohansson2671 it was a direct response to Nelson Glover, not the original comment
This guy is maybe the best DIY channel I've seen, out of hundreds.
Yeah he has a wide knowledge of electronics and build design. There only a few like him but for sheer presentation and camera angles and editing it's entertaining and we'll layed out .
Imagine if this guy was in the mech keyboard community
@@mario7832 imagine 😂

@@mario7832 Maybe he interested with it, but still don't have idea for the diy keyboard
Amazing! Truly passionate!
You make it seem too easy but it's not.
I respect your work.
Very cool, and surprisingly innovative given how technically simple it is! It was even kind of inspiring to see you put it together. Makes me wonder why no one else has thought of this
Friendship with aluminum ended.
Now, we are using 🅱️R A S S
Alumin*i*um
aluminium?
Aluminum preferred in the United States and Canada.
Aluminium favored throughout the rest of the English-speaking world.
Conclusion: Daniel is from USA or Canada.
I'm actually german, but must have picked up the US spelling.
Even though the german word for it would be "Aluminium" with the extra "i"
I think it's more a threesome now, he still managed to convince the aluminum to get involved in the metal sandwich.
everything this guy does is so interesting that i cant click faster...
Agreed
Yup
Sameeeee
Dito
Imma wait for this comment to blow up an then brag that I was here frm the start
best tutorial I've seen so far. You covered every possibility I was hoping for. The built in battery that you plug into with usb is THE best touch in the build. Its a perfect solution to get rid of the power cable yet its sleek and no extra finagling, just taking advantage of the built in features.
But how do I know what battery to look for for a basic LCD panel , for a build like this, the Controller board I got, says it requires 12v 3A, that is big for a "slim" LI-o battery.
each video i watch blows me more and more away. Never stop making these amazing videos
I need a button that when pressed is just the sound of Matt saying “Nice!” bc that’s the wholesome encouragement and validation I need in my life.
easy-peasy. get an "EZSound Module" (on amazon). capture Matt saying, "Nice!". load it onto the board. sew it into your favorite plushie. just remember a zipper or velcro to change the battery.
Me listening to his speakers through my trash speakers:
Ah yes, those speakers have great sound for the size
I laughed
No different than looking at 4k monitors being reviewed on a 1080 display "yeah that does look nice!"
Really amazing! It opens my mind to so many new possibilities! Great job! Well done!
You are the best for teaching and explaining with how to build and where to get it. Everybody hide something while showing building or how to do. Thank you. May the lord bless you....
I'm gonna build a touchscreen toilet bowl.
Nice

something that i never thought of but extremely needed , thank you
Not the touchscreen we need, but the touchscreen we deserve.
make it brass for a shiny ass
I love that you still do things by hand so people see that they can do it too. So many youtubers start getting a bunch of expensive tools as their channel grows and outstrip the capabilities of their audience.
You should investigate you local maker space, you often get access to all the awesome tools, for a low monthly membership fee. KWArtzLab for example is my local maker space, 5 Laser cutters, full woodworkng shop, full metal shop (with brdgeport mill) 24/7 access,$60 a month
this is definitely out of reach for 90% of people if I had to take a wild guess. Like when he removed the connector for the buttons and individually soldered every wire onto the nodes on the back, that was just another moment where I knew- "yeah this dude definitely went to college. He knows his shit." And I know its not that complicated, but average people can't fucking do this.
@@TheBanjoShowOfficial nah, start simple, the skill will get there eventually
@@TheBanjoShowOfficial I don’t think it’s necessarily about having gone to college
This was very satisfying to watch. I like when these types of videos come up in my recommendations.
i did this on “easy mode” by reusing the laptop display assembly and modifying a raspberry pi 3d print template to fit the driver board then just fixing it to the back. the laptop hinge got reused and works great. just have to flip it around by undoing the nuts and adding new lubrications.
good alternative for anyone who doesn’t want to go thru all the metal work or doesn’t have the tools or space
So the raspberry pi is replacing the control board?
@@quinxx12 no just the case.
You got a tutorial? I would like to try this as well but how did you make the enclosure for the raspberry pi?
Ever considered making a magnetically attachable keyboard for this build, like surface pros? I think this should not be problem for Raspberries, since they can be connected via Bluetooth
Sorry but what did you use the raspberry pi for ?
Now this, THIS is finally going to make the mac guy at starbucks jealous. He used to shake his head at the vinyl wrapped ones, now look at him now, he's salivating.

We'll never forget you aluminium
Matt in another 2 years time: "I made this out of my new favourite material... Titanium... Which can easily be welded in a vacuum so remember to wear your oxygen mask if you try this at home."
Titanium, Niobium and Zirconium are metals that can be easily anodized in vivid yellow, green, or blue (or a rainbow style). And this is not an acrylic paint. So, why not?
It also looks quite smart!
hahahahahaha
OR much easier, an enclosed welding booth purged with argon. You can easily convert a sandblast cabinet into one. Seal it up and put argon in it. It just needs more pressure than the outside of the cabinet. Argon is heavier than air so the cabinet really doesn't even need a top!!! (I cast titanium golf club heads for 15 years and built the welding cabinets AND vacuum induction machines).
@@reasoningtruth That's the DIY perks video in 1.5 years time.
Matt, you're builds are always inspiring. The way you use different materials and electronics together seamlessly is awesome! I've got my eye on a few electronics projects and now I'm seriously considering brass 😀 Keep crushing it! - Brad
In my experience brass tarnishes. If he wants to keep that monitor frame shiny he'll find himself breaking out the brass cleaner every few months.
Wow it's rare to see an error this way around but "you're builds" (you are the builds), "your builds" (belong to you). You're not wrong though, his builds are great.

Man you're killing it I wish I had almost all your designs
Awesome work. I'd throw money at one of those! Great explanations of method too. Looking forward to the next of the 'brass' series.
I really appreciate that you used actual DIY methods instead of just 3D printing a bunch of stuff and gluing it together
Sure you could say it's just 3D printing things and glueing together but soldering electronic components, doing the actual 3D modeling, and doing prototypes/testing, are all important parts of that kind of DIY. The same applies for this with the only serious difference is that it's much harder for someone to replicate this kind of thing as not everyone can source some materials (brass in this case) or the tools required to work with it. 3D printing is relatively cheap in comparison as people either have access to a printer already, and if they don't, wouldn't have to pay as much to buy one as they would for the materials in just one or two projects.
@@sacripudding4586 Yeah, but having a 3d printer is far less common that having a hacksaw and some files

i wanna see that... you have pictures or videos?
Hi Matt, In 2019, I disassembled my old laptop when I saw your first version of a DIY external monitor, though I wasn't able to make my own external monitor. I'm thankful and happy to tell you that because of the videos you make (showing us that it's like a walk in the park even though it's not haha), and because of that first disassembly, I'm able to open and fix laptops and speakers today. I failed to mention that it helped me financially during COVID when I lost my job. Keep it up!
This man knows how to do things...I wish I had his inspiration. THIS IS RELLY AMAZING :)
Nothing can't be perfect but the art of his work is just a example of infinite perfection 😍
Brilliant build! I would like to add just one tip... Brass oxidises. especially when touched with bare hands as the oils in our hands speed up that process leaving the brass tarnished and discoloured. So, to save you the heartache of having to continually polish this, which could lead to potential damage, I suggest clear coating all of the brass once its been cleaned and ready to receive the parts. the Laquerre or Clear coat will create a very hard protective coating on the brass keeping it looking shiny for years if looked after. Then it'll only ever need a simple dust off now and then.
Doesn't the metal polish already adds a layer over it though?
@@8bviews91 god damn it. Not helpful, but okay
@@SuperSohaizai no. Metal polish does not add a protective layer.
This is the man who will pioneer Knack III
The finishing of each piece and end result is as good as Apple product 👌 very much inspiring...all the best for your future projects 👍
5:45 a significant improvement for stability and to prevent damaging the device and/or surfaces and possible injury, the legs should be joined by another length of brass soldered between the two legs.
if you want to avoid displacing brass you have already soldered together you should try putting wet napkins on the joints you don't want to melt, it works surprisingly well.
Or use cool gel
With this newfound brass obsession, I wonder how long will it take for that to convert into steam punk aesthetic obsession
Yep!
