Examples of Model-Making

06/15/2009 4:46 AM

I was looking on the web for some used milling machines & chanced upon this site showing the extraordinary work of Barry Jordan. The page is part of a wider site called the Internet Craftsmanship Museum which is well worth a few hours browsing.

It is quite humbling to see such skill & dedication from these engineers.

Re: Examples of Model-Making

Not too long ago, with time on my hands as opposed to budget available, I ran into on the web whole rafts of folks building tiny, scale, meticulous, reproduction steam engines.

I am filled with an awe that makes me want to get out the credit card and start filling the garage with things I cannot afford the time for. Like the recent blog on tiny train cities.

I wonder what it is about the engineering inclined that makes us want to create these environments we can control?

Determination to make the world run better one tiny bit at a time?
