Had the pleasure of meeting Mr Shaw recently and learning of this. Pretty incredible.

I would love to stick one of those ship models on a train layout.

Thank you for that link. My husband has built some ships from scratch and he really enjoyed the link. First the sizes got him (he figured Mr. Shaw used a scale of about 1:100). But when he saw the automations and the board that controlled all the different actions, he was really impressed.

Did you visit his basement or he visit yours? Were pizza rolls served?

Can I go to his house, do some mutual touching (not sex I ain’t gay) and then kick over the ship?

Thanks for posting.

Would have liked to have seen a little more detail of that fabulous looking Iowa Class Battleship model.

That's impressive as hell. I'd be scared to death of a fire destroying 30 years of work though.
