very cool. I haven't tried to build anything post-thumb injury, but I'll give it a try soon.

You haven’t seen a train wreck until you would see my build. I wouldn’t compete with you if you had both thumbs compromised.

How is your thumb doing? Slowly getting better still?

There is another company called ugear which seems to have similar ideas but much more variety. Could be great thoughtful gifts to a select few of your friends and all available through amazon. A Harley Davidson looking motorcycle is one example.

They swear these things are doable.

The long (3 hour) video I posted shows some of the intricacies involved in building it. Looks like xActing work.

That's funny - we were online last night, and are just about to buy the automobile one for my father-in-law. It will be right up his street. He's an inveterate tinkerer, and has both mechanical aptitude and patience that I envy enormously.

I clicked on this in my Facebook feed (because I love miniatures) and now these DIY miniature scenes are all that show up. I know they are a little too cute, but really want this one:
