Wonder how many times Scotland Yard was out at his place to make sure it wasn't real.
If you got the money and the time, hell, why not!

An immense & impressive amount of work & skill, but the bloody thing is outdoors! It doesn't matter if it's under a roof, the weather & changes in humidity will have this thing warping in under a year, I dare say. I'm not sure where you could put it otherwise, but surely a museum would be a better place than under a simple roof.
My missus would do her nut if I built even a 1/16 scale rail gun.
Crikey!

One thing about building in this scale, it should be pretty easy to source nuts and stuff in the right scale. Talking about nuts ........
