That reminds me of someone who made a 100% accurate scale model of a classic Ferrari (as in your 6 inch pianist could actually drive it!) Iirc he took
something like 40 years making it, I thought it was amazing but had this hollow sense that he'd spent most of his life doing something that...
Well it was little more than a cracking ornament really...

I thought I had some geeky hobbies - but I think I've just gone up in my own estimation after looking at that!
Great craftmanship mind

'KIN 'ELL That is craftmanship - even got a redtop!!
But, ninehigh - why did you have to raise the subject of your 6 inch pianist ?
Edited to add: I think this is taking Colin Chapman's statement a little too far 'to add speed, just add lightness'.....

pretty good - presumalby it is a Caeringvan model going by the handbrake, if so, isn't the screen angle is wrong?
the green one look pretty good, pinto power by the look of it.

The trouble with something so good and so accurate is that people (me included) can see a few (lots) of errors in it.
However, I'd rather not comment in the negative and just choose to enjoy the good/accurate parts and the enrgy and dedication it took to
build!
(I don't mean to slag off the obove post BTW, just my own take on it)
