Wow. Those pieces look amazing. Your choice of subject matter is great and the resulting pieces look fantastic. I love the details in these pieces. It's common items like these done with such high realism that really bring scenes to life. Well done!

Absolutely yes, the identical model scale but all metal is still in use today, not only among traders, farmers or bakers but were also found in many train stations or at the borders

Yes, the scales would also be at home on a Railroad freight platform I think.

Andrea, would the sheller be hand cranked or belt driven? it made me think a small one cylinder kerosene engine might be a perfect next addition.
