Designed and folded by Chad Killeen from one uncut square of paper. April-May 2008.
For this I used a 2-foot square of paper, which wasn't all as good as I hoped it might be (though I am glad I was able to get the job done with it). It wouldn't hold shape very well so I had to use 3 wires to get it to keep his shape. Don't worry that is all I used, no tape no glue :) I plan to fold a better version once I get my hands on some better paper.
Zeessi asked for the scale, so of course, I had to build and entire mini Green Grocer, rather than just saying "three stories."
Well of course it's big. How many tanks can honestly say they have a bridge?
Come on people, you know that I'd build it in minifig scale if I had the parts.

Four upright scales. The two on the left are English by Salter; the larger one (no. 28) weighs up to 28 lb and belonged to my grandmother. The small one (no. 11D) only weighs up to 8 oz in 2 dram increments; 16 drams to the ounce.
The two on the right I assume to be German and early 20th century, the cream-coloured one is by Krups; both have kilogram and pound measurements, although the 'Pfund' is the German version which is half a kilogram. I recall that when I was young the Pfund was is common use in Germany when I was sent to do shopping, but I'm not sure its use is as popular now.
