Notice that they put quotation marks around "easy".

Oh no you didn't! *snaps fingers*.

This tutorial is amazing. You guys are badass!

I have a suggestion: You can order TV masks online, but without a light up screen. (Look up TV masks online, and it should show up.) If you ordered one of those, you could just put the monitor in, and skip a few steps. It might be a bit more costly (I don’t really wanna check), but it is safer, because you don’t have to remove any TV guts. I guess there's pros and cons whichever way you do it, though.

I wanna see Erik wear it to Burning Man this year and report back!

[SpookNukem]

This channel has not only filled but flooded the hole it left behind when you guys left.
This is one of the best and creative builds I've seen, good job!
I cant wait to see whats next

"What is this ? Film riot?" Hahahahahhahahahaha

[Vindexi]

use a gel battery not a ledacid! Those produce gas out and aren't suitable for indoor (in tv!) use!

[Draggey]

Only a true object head fan would spend their life in that ;-; too bad, I don't have the guts, to do that.

[ZekeFaust]

Even better than the first episode! Feels almost exactly like the old BFX now. And I loved hearing that classic Next New Networks *ding* at the end! Good times.

I got suggested this after watching a internet day episode about someone running around a suburb wearing one of these putting TVs on everyone's porch😂

This is extremely similar to how I built my Prince Robot IV head a few years ago. I really should have made a 'how I did it' video... and also should have made a 'tearing it apart' video because I ended up throwing the whole thing out recently.

But yeah, I used an old LCD TV from eBay for the screen, batteries in back helped counterweight, had success with a motorcycle helmet on the inside to keep it attached, raspberry pi for playback.. I even used that exact same little wireless keyboard thing you have at 3:06.

"What are we, film riot" best line ever

[theULTIMATETetris]

I've been wanting to know how to make one of these for a while, and you made it the first new diy. Good show, ole chap.

[ryguysays]

Loving this new format! I notice the improvements from last ep! WOO keep it up Erik!

[occfilms]

would you consider rebuilding a classic BFX build? Like (insert cool build here)

[seorsus]

i've been trying to make something very much like this for a friend who wants to go to a convention with me but is really anxious. this video really helped. thank you.

[RegenerationOfficial]

A periscope is a neat and cheap solution. Micro LCDs cost hundred of money

[OneCheapEric]

I am so happy that you are back. Like so so happy.
