    Amazing TOOTHPICK Architecture! Not-so-tiny models are awesome! Whodathunkit? This artisan quit his job to construct what you see here. Can I have lessons please?

    From Page: “Stan Munro from New York has quit his job as a TV presenter since 2003 and worked full-time for the job of constructing world architectures with toothpicks. It took him 6 years to set up two breathtaking ‘toothpicks city’ by using 6 millions toothpicks and 170 liter gluewater, including Big Ben in London, London Tower Bridge, Sydney Opera House, Eiffel Tower in Paris, Empire State Building in New York,
    Dubai Voyage Sails Hotel etc. more than 50 models of famous landmark structure in the world.”
