A tiny 1893 Peugot

I made this model 30 +years ago, cannot remember, but I was in college as far as I recall! The spokes are made of fuse wire (gives you a size ref) the wheels are insulated wire wrapped around a circle , the rest is all business card stock, it sits on a green felt base ..again the thickness of the felt gives an idea of the size!

I love those tiny models! The detail and workmanship are very impressive, and the small size never ceases to amaze me.
