:o amazing. I don't imagine there are too many people in the world capable of that level of craftmanship or dedication (1220 hrs to complete).

Magnificent. I was just a little surprised he chose slotted screws over allen bolts. Perhaps they are not suitable when so small.
In the same vein there is a 14.5:1 scale Caterpillar D11 bulldozer floating around. I have an email with many pix on it but can't seem to transfer them. Here are a few samples and if you plug "Caterpillar D11R CD 1:14,5" into Google images it brings up a few more. The skill of these people is absolutely amazing.
