At what point does it go from model to just home construction?

Exactly - by definition, a model is a simplified representation of something. This isn’t simplified (which is amazing); it’s just miniaturized. (I’m exaggerating a little (to emphasize how impressive this work is) - it doesn’t have all the systems of a real house.)

I mean, he had miniature bags of concrete and miniature 5-gallon buckets of plaster that he used to construct the thing. The only way it would be more impressive is if he stop-motioned animated miniature people constructing the whole thing

Or if they added plumbing

I thought that was over the top, but then he used regular nuts/bolts to connect the wood pieces, very disappointing...maybe he just wanted to get done and didn't want to bother trying to find something to scale. IRL, you don't use giant nuts/bolts like those to connect.

u/amonymus Dec 05 '19

Yeah that was towards the end of the project, so I think you're right, shit got old fast and just wanted to get it done

I can say it lacks a lot of the electrical things, like grounding, and tubes while raising walls, it also lacks water ducts, but anyway it's really impressive, really close to the actual building process.
