    @Type2volkswagen Was the beer keg the size of a ferris wheel, or was the (model of) the airship the size of a car? The correct answer seems like "neither", given the car is way too big to be the size of a normal vehicle, while the airship build is the size of a normal airship... Still, I would say it's a great idea to learn from the construction process of someone else's when it is used for your own creativity.
