It is always a treat to watch a Master at work, and this one is about as good as I've ever seen.

Theres an event in York Pa every january called 'Cabin Fever' and guys that make stuff like this have a get-together.  They have different sections for automotive, trains, boats, toys and stuff.
Amazing things.  One guy has a blown hemi running on nitromethane that you can hold in your hand, when he whacks the throttle you can see the exhaust 20' above it!
I spoke a boy that was about 12years old, he had made a rube goldburg contraption that amazed me with complexity and economy of motion all at the same time.  Seated next to him was an old geezer, had to be late 80's, a master machinest and they were comunicating at a level us mere mortals could only glimpse at.  the 12year old was an engineering student at MIT.
