I just ran across this site. This guy doesn't know what scrap wood is. He builds these scale models out of toothpicks









Often using 10s of thousands, and sometime just one



Here is the rest of his site, a very interesting place to surf around - http://www.toothpickart.com/

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Heard from a client..."If I had your tools and experience...I could do it myself"

I'd be more cross eyed than that smiley. WOW!

Wonder how many toothpicks he's used.
