      Wow, that's astounding!

      A lady in our church made a model of the temple, not that big, and not that ornate, that she uses to teach Sunday School with.

      I thought hers was astounding! But this one beats hers!

      Very interesting. At first I didn't notice that there is a 19 picture slide show that also tells the story of what he did. The caption on one picture says

      Thanks, Eeset, I hadn't realized that it was a slide show, either. The details make it even more astounding.

      That info tries to come off a bit humorous I think, but its actually pretty sad. Its a wonderful model, but this guy is obviously obsessed, and maybe a bit of a braggart as well. He hand baked all of the bricks and tiles individually and then stuck them together? That's just wild. No wonder its taken him 30+ years and counting. Ah well. Still amazing to see.

      That's interesting and it is the first of its kind. This is something that gives rise when you put your concentration to get something done. Yes this is indeed something that bring "History to life". Thanks for sharing something as useful and interesting as this.

      If it is mostly clay, the materials and gas to bake were probably a few hundred, maybe a few thousand dollars.

      However, the time? 33k hours @ what... $20/hr?

      Yeesh.

      Awesome though.
      There's an interesting psychology regarding the impetus behind which we find ourselves urged... nay, compelled, to read someone's entire signature.
