    It's lazerboard with peel & stick components. it really was fast to build, though not 5 minutes, mre like 75 minutes, but still it was fast.

    Hien needs bridges for his module, and i need a few too, so I am on a bridge kick right now. I'm working on a 215 foot camel back truss now, then the tall steel viaduct bridge. Check with me by the end of the week for progress. :D

    Anyone who can create like this just has to be on some sort of drugs :eek:)

    Can anyone think of anyone more creative than Robert?
    Kudos Robert,

    No wonder Robert can do all these beautiful models - if this only took him 5 minutes to build; he could build 288 of them a day! Nice.
    I want to have the metabolism of a hummingbird, then I could build things as fast as Robert can.

    PS Nice bridge, by the way. I want to build one. Being an engineer, I wonder if I could write it off as an office expense?
