What do you do when you have too much time in your hands? Some of us have our own way of entertaining ourselves but a certain Michael builds replicas. How many he has built before we really do not know but we do know it took him 6 years to build this replica of the Mclaren 4/14 that the team raced back in 1999. It was built using 956,000 matchsticks and 1686 tubes of glue and can be broken down into 45 separate parts that helps when moving it around.





So if anybody finds this enlightening, here’s a suggestion: build a replica of a Ferrari Enzo using matchsticks, we’ll do the coverage. Just to make it interesting, do it in 6 months, 6 years is just way too long.
