    See these wooden models

    These are from a long email sent to me that has more images. I can't separate them.

    A grandfather apparently made them. The woodworker is unknown to me.

    I've seen the same email. Story is a little suspect, in that it says his family was unaware of his collection of many, many models, until his death. Nevertheless, beautiful models from a very talented woodworker.

    These look like the models posted in magazines like Wood, with a few "updates" to make the models more detailed (hoses, etc.). Nice choice of woods for contrast, though.

    Haven't seen any email about it, though.
