That is incredible. I wish I had the ability to put 900 hours into
any project. I wonder if I went thru my mothers house if my old
erector set is still there. I loved that toy. I think those of us
that grew up with those probably have better then average problem
solving skills. Kind of like farm boys being jacks of all trades.
Also had the old chemistry kit, bet those are illegal now. Times have
really changed the things we did as kids, building forts, wandering
all over the country side, and playing baseball in the triangle park
where we got bonus scores if you could pull your hit to hit the metro
trolley when it went by. They kick kids out of school and send them
to juvenile detention for what was normal growing up in the50's-70's.
I like playing with computers, but really glad I had the exposure to a
well grounded life outside.

The picture of the person working on the motorcycle tricks me at first
glance. I was scrolling through and twice stopped because it initially
looked real.

Which raises the question, how does one make realistic miniature dings?
It would definitely require more eye hand coordination than I have.

I'd like to thank you for all the time I wasted looking at that site
today. I just got absorbed. Unfortunately no one to blame but me,
but I was impressed with the details. Looked at the logging camp and
got lost.

Don't know if I saw that one yet but the tab is still open. It's not
raining yet so got to finish hauling stumps to the dump trailer. Do
you have a link for that one?

I finally realized when I saw it in the boxed frame.
Yep, I followed some links and noticed that the batteries multiple ones
fit on a #11 xacto blade.. now that is small...
Most everything was lifelike, and when it wasn't I clearly understood
how difficult it is to mimick reality.

The thing that really impressed me is the lifelike wear marks, dings in the paint, and so on --
looks *exactly* the way things look after they've been knocked around a bit. Such attention
to detail! and on such a small scale, too...

The plants are normally the give away, only a few near the doors looked
fake, and maybe they were suppose to look fake to mimic the attempt to
spruce the place up with artificial flowers. LOL

I can do that with my phone camera but the effect on my phone camera is
called miniaturization.
