The builder, Ray Bean of Winnipeg, spent four and a half years on the model, and has added extra aircraft, boats, a Moran tug, and a lot of sailors in dress whites lining the railings. The extra boats, cradles, yellow gears, and aircraft are 3D printed by Shapeways.
Ray wants people to know that he built this after having a stroke and brain injury. If he can do it, you can do it. Just get out and build it!
As a challenge you can try to find some of the bicycles hidden in the model.
Thanks Ray,
from John Clearwater
