"Iowa artist Patrick Acton has glued over 4 million ordinary wooden
matchsticks into 65 incredibly detailed scale models of life-like
sculptures, complex machines, and world renown architecture. Acton has
used the tiny two-inch long sticks to build huge models like his 13-foot
long true-to-scale model of the battleship USS Iowa, and a 12-foot
lighted model of the United States Capitol. The Matchstick Marvels
display has drawn visitors from all over the world."
Models include Minas Tirith, Notre Dame Cathedral, Hogwarts, the World
Trade Center and the International Space Station.
