Apart from the fact that this model is so amazingly creative, did you see how accurate he was?  I dream of being able to file up a bit of plastic that was darn near a perfect press fit into an opening as he did with this window glass.  And what is that wonder glue that he is using that glues up anything?

Thanks for posting, Bob, that was a real eye opener!

Cheers

Another impressive model. Its amazing the simplicity of the tools he has to build these. Plus he's made a drill and a sander for his projects. The skill displayed is mind boggling. Just shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. There is at least a dozen or more of these wonderful build videos which I plan to watch. Inspirational.

Most impressive. Sometimes I struggle when the part is already the RIGHT shape.

WoW!.....?

Just wanted to bump this up.

Well worth watching these videos. Some interesting techniques. Amazing precision. Not only is he using a variety of materials , he has made most of the tools he uses.

Years ago, someone showed me something like this, said the maker was in jail, so had the time.  Love the creativity.
