When I opened the link to see the picture, I expected to see a really big dumb looking boat made out of popcicle sticks but it looks like a real boat. If I didn't know it was made out of popcicle sticks, I never would have guessed.
Seeing this reminds me of my childhood when I used to try and make those stupid balsa wood model airplanes and how my parents didn't trust me with a boxcutter so I had to use scissors and every time I tried to make one, the scissors always broke the wood. Then that damn tissue paper would get stuck over everything when I tried to glue it to a busted up looking airplane frame. After about 30 minutes of this crap, I'd get pissed off and discouraged and throw it all away, only to try again the next weekend with the same damn results.
I admire this guy for actually being able to build the whole damn thing without getting glue everywhere and breaking it.
