I've got one on my desk at work. Very occasionally people stop and do a double take when they walk past

Yep, same here Practising with paper, then I'll likely move onto a glossy A4 version, then miniatures, then find someone with an A3 printer etc etc

Cool! Though I did get some strange looks whilst cutting out the paper, and nobody around me had a pritt stick so sellotape had to suffice!

Is it just me, or does the narrator sound like he's just come from recording an episode of The Klangers?

Just built one (in B&W) and was initially disappointed.

However, its like those "Magic Eye" pictures - you need to relax your eye(s) a bit and suddenly the illusion works!

He sounds like Hanibal Lecter to me

Closing one eye also does the trick.

Maybe thats a good thing.
