That is incredible detail! There is no way anyone would believe that was part of a diorama, without being told.
Thanks for sharing this.

I've used wheels at the last two houses for reels - none of them looked that cool though!

That is the most impressive piece of weathering I've ever seen. Bob is right - had you not said it was a diorama, I'd never have believed it!

Insane. Like Dr. Dave said, Had you not had said what it was I would have thought it was full sized

Just an amazing eye for scale reality. The tap. The hose that seems to have weight. The minor splits and roughness in the wood. Definitely a master at work.

Yes this guy is the best and much to my amazement, he is relatively young. The tap and many other small detail pieces he does are 3d copies - seems like the way of the future.

Having attempted to come up with a convincing tap, I think 3D printing would be just the ticket for such detail. Providing, of course, that the resolution was fine enough.
