When wood carving becomes (became?) scale modelling

I came across this website looking for steel mill images, and find the work absolutely amazing. These models are all carved wood and ivory, and the level of detail appears outstanding. If I ever find myself in Ohio, I'll have to make a trip to the museum to see in person:

Those LOOK AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL

I really like that UP Big Boy and the "Big Four" 4-4-2. They look like there just packed with detail :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Thanks for the link

Wow. That is just AMAZING work! I can't even fathom having the patience, fortitude and skill to spend 9+ months or more carving a steam engine.

I knew of the model of B&O 5800, but never knew who made it.
