I completed this project well over a month ago and was waiting to finish the final project from Quarterly Maker Box #MKR08 so I could them together in the same post. Decided I’ll give that project a post of its own though.

This project from the box was titled Building My Shop in 1:48th Scale.

Making quick and dirty models from simple materials is one of the most important steps in building for me.

What could be simpler, cheaper, and more available than cardboard and hot glue? I’ve actually used cardboard boxes to create some cases for a couple of my electronics projects, the Garage Temperature Sensor & Monitor and Sound Card Oscilloscope.

I created a time-lapse while assembling the model of Adam’s Cave. I tried a completely new angle by attaching the camera to the light above my dining room table.

It can be hard to get details from a time-lapse, so here are some pictures of the completed model.

Also check out part 4 of this series, where I build a model of my own shop. If you want to see the previous projects, check out the unboxing and puzzle in part 1 and some drawings in part 2.
