a couple of opera sets I’ver built

Hey guys,

I’m new to the forum but this is what I do for a living. I get to build cool stuff but I don’t know the first thing about residential building.

I’m just now realizing how I have like, NO good pictures of anything

Nice work! the globe is pretty awesome!

That’s pretty awesome. I can certainly see where that would give you a different perspective on building. You’re bound to have acquired a pretty broad skill set though.

Wow that is cool!! Never seen that before.

Wow, that is awesome.  That looks like it would be fun to build.  Nice job.  How long did it take to build the set with the stairs, the third picture?

Thanks man,

It’s funny. I think about skills a lot and even though I use things a certain way, I can’t even carry a conversation with anyone who works on houses or furniture.  I’m totally on the other side of the coin.   Everything I do is unorthodox, never has to deal with the environment only needs to last a few weeks, can be assembled and reassembled elsewhere and is often made up on the spot.

The sad problem is that we rarely do the same thing twice. So we often never get to implement anything we learn from mistakes.

I’m also working on a bunkhouse up at my cottage judging by the workmanship, you’d think I’ve never picked up a hammer before.

I’d be willing to bet you’d catch on to residential stuff pretty quick.

here’s the one I’m working on right now.

It’s called Don Pasquale and we’ve set in 1950’s little italy, Toronto

And if we’re talking about my house building abilities…..it ain’t pretty.

But here is the bunkhouse that I’ve been working on (for those of you who build houses, I’m afraid to admit that the location is so remote that there isn’t much of a building code. It’s part of an unorganized township so other than electrical, you don’t a professional.)

That’ll be a pretty nice little camp.

I dont want to buy your damn uggs

But Chase, they’re CHEAP. Plus all that gobbledygook makes for such an interesting read.

I can see Chase now. Doing a Fuel review with his Ugg boots on in central Florida where it ‘s 80 degrees on Christmas 😆

Lol! The worst scammer are the ones selling brand new pickup trucks for 1000$ on craigslist

Never fooled with Craigslist. Don’t even know for sure how it works.

Hey Astroboy, Really good work on the sets!! Your an artist.  The lake house looks really cool!!  You do really good work! Must be cool to sit in bed and look out at the lake.

Man I would love to have something like that.  Looks like it has an awesome view, nice job.

Good job !!!! Luky you i’m never aloud to take pics on movie set

Here’s the latest

Looks great AB. Must be a pretty sweet job working on something different like that all the time.

Man that’s really cool, I tried building sets in middle school, I helped my dad when I was young and knew a lot about it, it was coming out really nice but a week before the play they kicked me off and said I took to long and they couldn’t rehearse on the set unless it was painted. Nobody understands the work that goes into these except the person building. Keep up the good work
