Re: my 1/12th scale model home
That's incredible! I can't even begin to imagine the time invested in just cutting up the 2x4 to make scale lumber. You used just one 2x4 for all of that? I don't think I would have the patience! Looks awesome though. It's probably strong enough that you could dance on it, if you wanted. I remember taking a class in high school where we had to design and build our own roof and floor trusses with just balsa and wood glue. Our teacher tested each one to the point of breaking by hanging weights on them, and filling a 5 gallon bucket with water, slowly. Most of the good designs could easily hold 50 to 80 pounds plus.
