Here is one of old projects that I finished 12 years ago.... it is a scale model of an Architects Classroom circa 1900....... it is in 1/12th scale and about everything works.... the tables are cast in white bronze with steel parts.... they tilt and lock with a cam mechanism, they raise and lower, the casters swivel and turn and they even have the makers name (me) cast in raised letters in the bases........ there is a lot of detail in this thing..... the waste baskets each have 1020 solder joints, steel wire with tin solder...... the sets of drawing instruments have rules engraved on ivory, etc, etc..... this took me about 2000 hours. It has been in magazines all over the world and is on display at The Toy and Miniature Museum in KC..... check out this on their web site and notice that you can click on the hot spots for more detailed pictures...... they are going to change the site soon so I thought I would post it...
