Oh! He's so dang cute!!!! I love him! 2 of those would be cool posted on either side of a door!
so very cool! to see 2.
That video was absolutely awesome! I need to build two toy soldiers to stand outside an old-fashioned toy store in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. No plastic toys will be sold there. They will only commission handcrafted works. Right now, everything is in the production stage, nothing is set in stone. I had in my head that I was going to build a couple of these out of 12-inch PVC water pipe and 4-inch PVC drain pipe. Before I got started, I thought I'd look to see if anyone had a better idea. Wow! What a better idea! The 12-inch water pipe was way too expensive for a prototype. Maybe later, but for now, I think I'd better stick with this cheaper version of the design instead. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with the rest of us online. It is much appreciated!
Im so glad it was helpful!
U should do more christmas.stuff
I will but later in the year, I miss monsters lol
I'm more impressed by someone finally finding something that stick decently to HDPE
Fantastic! Really cool Gomez Addams mustache
dun da da dun da-(clap clap)
Wow, aren’t you imaginative and creative. I love it. It’s just adorable!
I haven’t seen you have this much fun
this was so out of my comfort zone and so....big. it was a blast.
OUTSTANDING!!! This is the best looking Full Size Toy Soldier that I've seen!!!
glad you like it!
Oooh I need one of those buckets! Texas is in my heart so deeply.
Love this build...hmmm wondering about a Frankenstein out of this build...the wheels are a turning :)
Ohhhh snap! Frankenbucket!
@@CobwebsandCandlesticks I have the wheels turning...lol...I think you could do the Bride too...lol...I have to wait till warmer weather because of my health, but I am telling you...that would be cool in an entrance like Allen said...not to mention for our "kiddie haunt" those would be great! Unlimited possibilities :)
Absolutely!
this warms my heart!
@@StiltbeastStudios Thank you so much! I seriously can't wait to get the materials...:)
I can’t wait! I have 11 months to build these things.
you can build an army!
This turned out great. I wanted a giant toy soldier so I used felt and trim and covered my carport post and made a toy soldier.
THAT, is amazing Allen!!! Really, wow!!!
Thank you sir! it was really fun to figure out.
Jan 2023 - watching this, loving this, I’m now subscribed ❤
thanks, glad you like the content!
This is not only fantastic! It is also budget friendly!! I will definitely try this!!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Missed the opportunity for some glitter! 😉 We collect nutcrackers. Going to make two to flank our front door! This is awesome!
there is always room for glitter!
This is great! I was just admiring my neighbors ones - which cost $250 a piece at the store. Now I'll be able to have some too! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you like the video, they are so fun to make. I was giddy.
First... I love this big guy. Yay!
Next... 2 gallon, 3 gallon, and, 5 gallon buckets with lids, square and round are $1 at all Walmart bakeries. Their baking supplies come in them. So, they are also food grade if you need them to be.
Great tip, thank you!
Love it!!!!!!!
awesome, thank you.
Children won’t be looking at details..adults might be wanting to look to duplicate so no worries. He’s awesome.
Everyone needs an army of these!
I agree! Thank you for watching!
Man you are a truly an imaginative genius, I love you creative art yep I think it’s art
wow crazy excellant. thinking outside box. disappointed that i just found your videos, but here we go. i am building stuff!!!
That soldier is fanfreakingtastic Mr.Allen!! You are so creative.
I have a lot more Holiday stuff in the works for after Halloween!
@@StiltbeastStudios awesome!
Paint 2 little half moon arcs at the bottom of the foot buckets - will look like the rounded toes of boots
Thank you for making him... OMG... I think hea so stinking cute...
I made a totem pole by stacking coffee containers. I had a dickens of a time locking them together. Your zip tie idea is awesome! I will add that I had to add dirt in the bottom to keep the pole from tottering in the Oklahoma winds!
You sir are the best!!! Thank you for all that you do.
Obsessed. Making 2 for our hotel lobby. Cost will be almost zero for us.
Sounds like fun! Happy Halloween!
Oh my goodness
It’s stunning!!!
Will be trying to make
So talented and creative! It’s joy watching you create, thank you!
What an awesome looking soldier..I love it. much talent you have
thank you, glad you like it!
Thats so Awesome !! margaret has been buggin me for years ...she is a big nutcracker Fan .. thanks for sharing as always HFL!!
just change the face paint for a nut cracker!
Voice over no problem watching you put that together was absolutely inspiring I love toy soldiers. I can't hardly wait to be able to make one of these even if it's smaller. And I think you're an awfully good painter especially for what you were going for thanks so much for the inspiration
He is a happy toy soldier which I love. I like how you made him
And CB I want two so I believe I will be busy. Honey can you move your car?
Go make stuff!
Fabulous soldier! I want to build one now.
You could add something at bottom of feet attached to bucket and spread them a bit to make it look like front portion of boots.
Most definitely! Thanks for the suggestion!
I think this is a phenomenal practical, application with the 5 gallon buckets and whatnot containers! Love the detailed step-by-step and the final product.
These are one of my better ideas lol.
Looks great Allen ! My wife is the master of zip ties. She uses them for everything. Excellent video thanks for sharing.
Zip ties are amazing! awesome mechanical bond and easily repeatable.
This is absolutely brilliant, and easy.
I am so glad you did cocovid this summer and it was online! I love watching the dainty historical costumes, but man, I have been into Halloween since forever, and you just rock that! So glad I found you. Love all of your stuff. My sister-in-law and I live for RUclips Wednesdays!
Thank you so much, costumes and masks are a huge part of what I do, but my business shifted from them a bit because of the pandemic. I wont do dainty and historical, but you will see more costumes soon! so glad you joined us.

I am very excited for more Christmas my husband and I watch a lot of you Halloween creepy builds
More to come!
Wow…. O.O. Dang, brother - he’s awesome. You made that look easy.
it is easy, go make stuff!
In my universe, ZIP TIES are the greatest invention after microwave popcorn! My nephew and I set up a hunted walk at out local park and have used 100's of zip ties to pull it off! Plus we thank you Mr. Hopps for several of your tutorials for props we have built over the last 12 years. Hopefully we will be back next October 202`1, COVID shut us down in 2020!
this was a hard year for many, glad to know you are ready to get back at it!
Great job! Looks sturdy and you can take it apart for storage!
Wow very, very different, and I love it! It turned out beautifully!✨ I love the small details!
Man your really a awsome builder! Thanks for teaching
Looks excellent, I'm inspired
I have yet to be even mildly disappointed in a project/video of yours and I've been watching for years.
This looks truly incredible. It really does.
I should get you to call my 4th grade teacher....
This looks fantastic.
This is LEGIT WAY cool!!! I love it! These are absolutely on my create list now for this year. We have strong winds, so I think I will add some concrete to the bottom bucket and maybe even some rebar. THANK YOU!!
those are reasonable modifications
Great vid! Going to have to try this one!
Go make stuff!
A very effective build out of the buckets. If it wasn't already gone Christmas I'd be tempted to try making a mini-version with yogurt pots or something. I'll store the idea away for another time though..... that endless list of "ooh, I want to do that". during the time to finish one project I add another three to the list!
Anyway, Fantastic video with clear and effective directions to get such cool results. Thank you!
thank you so much! so glad you like the videos!
Love your creativity
Always insightful and easy to follow, thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I stumbled onto your channel and had a "I can't look away" moment. I can't do Patreon right now, so I've commented and subscribed. BTW: I love this solider and your method of explanation. Thanks for the video.
Nice job! Very simple project. Thanks for all that you do!!!
Thanks for watching!
This is the one I meant to comment on. Haven’t seen the tree yet. About to watch it now. You see things in everyday stuff that most people would not. If I had half of that imagination I would be very happy. Thank you for always challenging us to open up to see things as you see them.
it really is learning to see., thats what its all about.
LOVE IT!!!! Especially how much you enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it! and yes, I did too.
