That is amazing! What this guy has done is well-engineered and ingenious...he is every bit an artisan despite his humble media.
Thanks for finding it.

. . . CRAP! :eek:

That is indeed some piece of art!

Whatever our passions in life are - be it family, biking, toothpick sculptures, basket weaving, bug collecting, cup stacking, etc etc etc...live 'em to the fullest!
