World-Class MODEL BUILDERS - From Hobby To High Tech | Full Documentary
Ғылым және технология
In Germany, an estimated one million model builders enrich the nationwide club landscape. In winter, they are diligently designing, constructing and testing in their tinkerers' rooms - in summer hundreds of meetings of the scene take place all over Germany. There they then compete against each other, the scale models of the helicopters or airplanes, the mini-cars, steam engines, trains and boats of the hobbyists. Who has the most beautiful and fastest self-made miniature vehicle?

As a life long model maker I love seeing documentaries that showcase modelling from around the world, thanks WELT for posting this.
My Uncle who is no longer here, use to Build Model Steam Locomotive Trains. They were exact replicas of the Real Ones, but much smaller. He Built these Small Replicas so Kids could have fun riding them. He use to go to Local Fairs and had these trains ready to ride for anyone who wanted to ride them, and was one of his Hobbies He loved doing.

These are very talented, creative people. They are gifted adults who utilize their grown-up skills and intelligence to be giant kids. Awesome stuff.
Thanks WELT for this documentary 🙌🏽
As a avid RC airplane builder and flier I can appreciate the effort many of these model builders have. They keep their minds and hands active instead of wasting their lives in front of the TV. My specialty is WWII scale planes but I have many planes spanning WW I to the jets. It is tough not to fall in love when a B-17, P-38, F4U, P-47, Mosquito, P-51, FW-190, or B-25 does a low high speed fly by.

Thank you for posting such a nice documentary.
Thanks For The Great Video... Thanks😀😃😄
My Father's cousin was a railroad engineer, and he built a scale model steam locomotive in his back yard(in NW Alabama)that was big and sturdy enough to ride on. Ironically, he died in a crash at a crossing with an idiot automobile driver who raced the train signal(usually, it's the automobile driver who gets killed). I still have a picture somewhere of him straddling that locomotive wearing a blue/white seersucker engineer's cap with a big grin. I build scale plastic models myself, and have huge admiration for those who build working scaled-down replicas. Thanks for posting this.
These guys are just crazy! I love it!
Interesting aircraft models, train models, and rocker models. Thank You Very Much, God Bless, Ludwig Dale Messer
If these guys were my dad's, my childhood would have been great...
Good show👍🏻 Building models is a great hobby🎯
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow... Wow. I want it!!!! I love models, these are so cool.

impressive - love to see creative genius.
If we try to understand the love these makers have for their models, and we watchers have to see them and drool, it's not just the little ones we like. As a boy, every year I loved seeing what the new cars looked like, we loved riding on the subways real trains, we loved watching and riding on ferries and boats, and then the ultimate, airplanes. As a boy my father took my brother and me out to the Idlewild area in the wilds of Queens to watch the new airport being built. After it opened, we could stand on a balcony and actually watch the glamorous travels come through customs! Not now! We never outgrow playing with our toys, even when they are real and go 100 mph.
I want to be there with all these interesting people and their creations. Seems like a lot of fun. Love all tech things.
Just fantastic! The dedication, enthusiasm and phenomenally high degree of of technical know-how made it a memorable experience just watching. Just love these guys and wish them every success. Thank you so much. Never thought this eighty year old could get such a kick just watching.
This guys are living my dreams. I do things like this for hobby but not at there level. 🙌🏽. One day I will be there 👌🏾

before the age of electronics and constant info, this was very common in LA CA USA! I had a neighbor build a model radial engine, one gliders, other had race boats, one sail boats, one had a destroyer, an other had a Huge B17 G, one did trains, one made guns, one ammo, one did DC electric cars and toys for us kids, one did micro scopes and telescopes, one had a dark room, chemical propelled Rockets, every other house had a classic car or hotrod and a boat with motor cycles. Mom and and dad did finish carpentry, furniture, cabinets, mom sowed all us kids cloths, I grew up next to Rockwell International while they built the Apollo and the shuttle. Learned to drive car, bike, motor cycle, stick shift in Rockwell's huge parking lot with security chasing us.

A wife that shares your passion.... lucky guy!
When they first showed the guys wife from a distance I thought it was his daughter. She still has an amazing figure for her age and I bet she could have been a model herself at one time.

These are amazing, love the dump truck. Would be nice to see more women get into model building. I heard they think it's all an old guys hobby.
wow what skill
Thank for this docu. Best is the railroad huserland. I live only e few kilometers away from this and never heard of. How can it be? I hope to visit it this year. Fuck off Corona.
You're lucky dude that your wife is so pretty and helpful in your job. And takes care of the kids while your gone. Dibs to there grandmother that takes care of them/
Looks real should be good for movies....😄
Oh how I would love to work on this....
Awaome
Any model building needs an understanding wife, I am lucky she bought me n gauge locomotives for my layout when I had layouts, understanding when I rigged my Marblehead yachts in the lounge. She knows where I am building boats and trains.
5:58 that’s a true love right there haha
It's awsome would be cool if you could ride them aswell
18:39 back when train sets had real looking track in HO & N size instead of the today (2000"s) each brands proprietary track system in today's train sets. That makes buying spare track harder and forces you to buy one brand and use their preformed pieces, instead of being able to cut your track and ties to any length and then put the rail joiner clips back on the track piece. Sadly many of the large kits built in basements, spare rooms and attics are not able to be saved. The market is limited and time and money spent just doesn't have market with today's kids and young adults. Nor do they have the space if they could afford it. Most of the model train companies have gone for expensive older adults making few parts and accessories for kids to afford to have model railroad today other than the "Thomas & Friends" Plastic or if lucky Brillo wooden train sets that are for kids under 10 years of age...
At 13:43 something appears to fall away from the Eurofighter as it pitches up. At takeoff there was a camera mounted to the starboard wing, but it was not there in the shot of the plane landing. It's possible that the takeoff and landing were from separate flights, but I think it likely that the camera was what fell away from the fighter in flight. Otherwise I think they would have included that on-board footage in the show as they did with the earlier F-15 flight.
A 2500 Ram with a Cummins in Germany. Nice!
I’ve been flying RC planes & drones for about 30 years but haven’t touched a plane in 10 years because there’s no place to fly them anymore where I live. I still have a couple models hanging from my basement ceiling because I have so much time, love and passion for them I’ll never fly or sell them. They mean too much to me.
30 000 dollar model? I'd be really nervous about flying that.
The large train model being intended to be an exhibit. I would highly recommend partitioning the system as much as possible. Then install shunts so that the exhibit doesn’t have to be closed down every time there is a problem. I’m sure they have prob learned or thought of this by now but I felt compelled to add my 2 cents. Lol 😂
👍👍
the first guy with the euro fighter on the sofa. why not hang it from the cieling with the wings on. make a great chanderlier
Ouch. Hans needs someone to get him a decent welding helmet before he gets a corneal burn @7:45. Old school welding with one eye shut and one covered is going to come back and bite him eventually.
Are the big truck and tracker really models? I mean , it's almost full size. A ton and a half is a vehicle! Come on , now.

joe look at this video - about the middle it is a model train builder club in Germany.
10:05 NICHT SO TIEF RÜDIGER!
13:42 - something fell off the Eurofighter?

Fantastic models, but why no boats?
21:30 >>>" don't have any of the original blueprints or plans for the model. " That because they original owner built most of it from kits and then from scratch. Building as they went along through out the years and decades. With only scribbled down measurements notes on scrap paper to cut identically pieces. Like using long wooden food sticks or tooth picks to create small log panels or siding on house. Unless the layout was feature in model rail road magazine over the years, there will be no documentation about the build. But all the wiring will be simple and direct. The sections of tract had different power transformers for control as the train engines did not have the very modern digital control invention when this layout built. Meaning it operated off simple DC voltage adjusted to allow the max 12 volts through for full speed. With modern model train engines or the internal adpater kits they control as many trains as they want on this layout as once, even trigger all the switches to route the train around the layout. The original owner actual adjusted the controllers for each train or track section and pushed or flipped the electrical switch to move the track switch. This is knowledge I had as pre-teen for my model train layouts. The added "drama" in the documentary and the bad voice dubbing does this almost disservice. Although it was lucky a club was willing to save the whole collection and build, as most have room for their builds and a standard sizing blueprint for connection joining points for people to bring their table/platform sections to join together. Usually for the model club's big display at model train shows.
I love it do anything I want to built it but no money for lathes & mills but I have own Migs, Tig, Arc welding & Plasma cutter that all I got here now

When someone says that's a waste of money I'm quick to point out the following. First human beings spend more money on drugs and alcohol than they do on food, housing and transportation COMBINED! Second with all these endeavors there are entire sub-industries employing millions of people around the world manufacturing the raw materials to the electronics, and turbine engines to begin with. That money doesn't get thrown down a well, those people purchase products and services to and the cycle continues!
