Man Builds Large Wooden Dino From Model

You know those little wooden models with the interlocking pieces? Yeah, well loyal Geekologie reader Vinss's father blew one of a dinosaur up to a much larger, more manageable size.

My father scanned each piece of one and scaled the pieces to a large scale in Photoshop, printed them out and then drew them on plywood planks, cutting them and then assembling them to form a giant version of it.

I hope it's interesting for you. If ever this makes it to the blog, we're a family from Quebec, Canada.

As for general feedback (in the same family as General Grievous), I really like this blog, it's always very interesting. The only thing I dislike is how you have to make everything vulgar. Anyhow, personal opinion. Keep up the great gadgets and stuff.

I'm trying, Vinss, but you're not making it easy with a dinosaur post. I mean, that's like asking [FAILURE TO KEEP IT CLEAN]. Seriously, I have joined a 12-step program though. The only problem is, a chick in one of the meetings was wearing a 'I Heart Dinosaurs' shirt and I lost my cool and [FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL] in front of the whole group. Then they all looked at me like I was some kind of weirdo. *phew* There, I think i did it. Now somebody put on The Land Before Time, I'm beat.

Hit the jump for several more of the awesome.

That is one lucky boy.

Thanks Vinns, now where exactly in Quebec is that thing?

  So apparently they're going to build a full-scale replica of Noah's Ark outside of Cincinnati. How big is full scale? HUUUUUUUUUGE. I think. But apparently still not big enough to accommodate any dinosaurs. It's enough to make a man question his faith. Answers In Genesis,... / Continue →
