Man builds full scale mercedes f1 from 956000 matchsticks

I hope this is not the new wooden F50 re-post, searched and couldn't find it. I think this is pretty impressive.

I like the fist post under it

“And look, he's married! (she's cheating on him.)”.

The only thing I can think of is dam this guy has WAY to much time on his hands.

 

+1, I wonder how much in loss wages he had to give up.

This was quite funny:

"We are at a loss for words as to why a female appears in one of the pictures, other than it's possible such intricate, craftsmanly pastimes are not held in the same disdain by women in Germany as they are by ladies closer to home. Though it is also possible she's a paid model."

 

Boy, that's a pretty good trick to make those things bend so you can make a round wheel. Talk about patience & persistance!

You were beaten to it by about two hours with this thread:

However, you get bonus points and a dispensation in my book by putting the tread in the correct section! Pretty hilarious text to go along with the photos. He must not have internet access as a means of wasting large quantities of time like people such as ourselves.

PS: The post above came into existence while I was typing so I claim immunity for reposting a repost.

 

I guess my mistake was I used "matchstick" as the search and not f50, my bad. I thought about posting in under F1/Racing.
