Dollar Store Build Challenges and a Scratch-Built Snow Droid

For my jobs as a blogger and a tips-meister, I watch a lot of YouTube videos. So, I notice emerging trends.

One trend I’ve been seeing a lot of in the COVID age is more build challenges between Tubers. Increasingly, those challenges seem to involve dollar store purchases. These are particularly among a range of maker subcultures — Dungeon crafters, model makers, diorama builders, home decor, and general crafters.

Some of these dollar store challenges are a between makers, others are just self-challenges to set a project goal for yourself and then constrain yourself to only parts, materials, and supplies that you can find at the dollar store.
