Oh, I laughed when I read this... I was feeling the same way! Some really great stuff being built.. I absolutely love this thread!

Nearly everything in this picture is scratch built. The bed and cabinets are all basswood. The mattress is two thicknesses of basswood covered with tissue. The pillow is just wadded up tissue. The blankets are painted paper towel. The coffee maker and coffee pot are both made from bits of plastic. The sink is half a fuel tank from the parts box, repurposed.
