Whoever he is, this guy's a genius

I found this while wasting some time, I mean researching valuable stuff on the net.

I pretty sure that this is the rest of the tractor.

Got a surprise when he put the drill in to start it. I was so busy looking at the engine I didn't notice it was tiny and sitting on a bench.

What a sweet runner 1/5th scale. Then the finished tractor with him standing nearby to operating the hand controls - WOW. More looking found someone else who built a 1/8th scale with plough behind it.

Great find

He should build a small car for it and then train a monkey to drive it around town.
