Problem is what do you read most of the naysayers running it down because it's not real as if they would have the skill, determination, craftmanship, to get close. It is brilliant.

Pretty!

I hang out with machining obsessed people and lot of them build stuff like that. What do you say about building 1911 Colt model 1:3?  I am too practical to do stuff like that, but the level of expertise is amazing.

I don't know RR, over the years I periodically look at things like that and years ago you would not have heard BS naysayers commenting on other peoples accomplishments and now mostly all you read is from these wretches my inclination is to jump on the chicken#$%* toad #$%*ers and tell them they are no talent turds and for them to crawl back under their rocks.

I have a 1 cyl steam engine I built from scratch in HS machine shop that actually works but that's as far as my miniature builds have gone because I too am too practical of a person to build something that would eventually serve as nothing more than a conversation piece however I would never ever dis someone that did build a scale engine like the one in the vid because the skill and attention to detail is impressive. I have a friend that has a fascination for miniatures and makes/sells doll house furniture, his attention to detail is so spot on that when a pic is taken with nothing else in the pic to give you an idea of it's scale you think you're looking at the real thing. I myself have no desire for doll house stuff but the skills my friend has to build these things is impressive none the less.
