| Heres the first set of pictures from this museum.
If you want to see really big ones of the pic, to see more detail, ask me.
The first two are of a tiny gas fueled engine, the master machinist at this museum was making.
The pictures of the models in the museum are of "lessened" quality as I had to take the picture of them while they were in the display cases, and they had flourescent lighting. Sorry.

| It is 1/16th scale. That was a typo on my part. Sorry. Quote: |

| It took several years to build each one. Just organizing the plans and bluprints probably took months.
I cannot emphysize the ammount of detail that went into these models. Pictures just dont do it justice.
