When I first hired into State Govt (Michigan) in 1995 I worked as a Corrections Officer at one of the State prisons in Jackson Michigan. At the "central complex" there was a store where inmates could sell their crafts. There were a handful of inmates that built models from match sticks. They did not have access to plans of any kind....just what they imagined in their minds. One particular inmate, who was serving a life sentance for 1st degree murder, had built two scale models that were unbelievable. One of the Eiffel Tower, and the other was the Titanic. Its too bad that he didnt realize that talent before he made his bad decisions.

Just when you thought you were doing a fairly decent job - His entire fleet, including the planes, is made from nothing but matchsticks and matchboxes http://www.odditycentral.com/pics/maste ... rmada.html
