Comment: The Miniature Engineering Craftsmanship Museum displays many hundreds of examples of fine metal and wood working craftsmanship at the small end of the size scale. Featured are over 250 working miniature internal combustion engines, over 150 working steam and Stirling engines, ship, aircraft, auto and construction equipment models, miniature arms (guns, knives), small machine tools, clocks and watches and fine engraving. Emphasis is on fine work done by single individuals rather than factories, and each craftsman is honored with a history when possible.
