PocketShip

 

We've got a web page up for PocketShip.

Click on the “Construction Gallery” to see a step-by-step commentary about the design and construction of PocketShip. You'll need to enlarge the pop-up Gallery window or scroll down to read the captions that accompany each image.

Part I of the video is also on that page.

But using the word "comprise" correctly in a sentence was just over the top.  Innovation for its own sake.
