This Boeing 777 Is Made ENTIRELY of Manila Folders

by Scott Mackenzie
Last updated December 18, 2017

Hat Tip to @jonostrower for sharing a link to this amazing model of a Boeing 777 jet aircraft reviewed on io9 and created by Luca Iaconi-Stewart over the course of five years.

Not only is it made at a scale of 1:60 with moving parts, but it was crafted entirely from manila folders. And every detail is there. The cargo bay doors open on hinges. The curtains between cabins are ruffled. The landing gear retract, and even the engines open up to permit reverse thrust during landing — assuming the thing could fly. Each first class seat took EIGHT HOURS to make by hand. Check out the video below for some highlights, but also see the the Flickr gallery for even more amazing images.
