San Francisco replica from toothpicks!

April 27, 2011


Scott Weaver's Rolling through the Bay from Learning Studio on Vimeo.

It took Scott Weaver 34 years and 100,000 toothpicks before completing this masterpiece - an exact replica of San Francisco. He called it Rolling through the Bay. The model made of toothpicks not only includes Alcatraz, Fisherman's Wharf, the Golden Gate but also the terraced houses on steep hills. It's amazing that the materials lasted that long while he was working on it for 34 long years. And to top it all, you can roll several ping-pong balls on top and rolls down unto different tours of the city.
