The scale of 1/8 is a long-term endeavour, because of the multiple procedures required. One after another, the designer, the draughtsman, the turner, the metal worker, the mill machine operator, the carpenter, the coach-builder, the saddler and the painter work as a team highlighting the passion of the craftsman regarding gesture and material.
