What about building a lamborghini in your basement, then hiring a digger to get it out?

How about building a humongous 'origami boat' out of flat plate steel in your front yard?

It really is something else...

Some reading material;

This guy did a really impressive conversion from ambulance to motorhome, including a complete caravan panel grafted onto the back.

He finished that so decided to build a Widebeam canal boat. I've not looked for a while but seems he is now prepping it to go cruising in Europe.
