For those of you that think I am crazy for taking on model ships and birdhouses and gadgets think again.  There are a whole class of crazies that really go weird on wood projects including a class in itself of people that make marble machines.  These are wooden machines that make marbles roll through mazes.  No other purpose in life, but I expect fun to build and lots of guys do it. 

For now I do not plan to go this way.  I have enough craziness in my own projects, but watch the attached video and enjoy.  If it does not start automatically  copy the following file and paste into the internet address bar.  When video starts enlarge to full screen
