[@90sarcadefighter5]

Absolutely amazing. My grandad watched the QM being built in Scotland as a youth. fair few more toothpicks required hey? lol , just astonishing work

[@cantthinkofone6995]

Ok I’m having a rough weekend and this made me cry. Silly, I know. What a talented, patient, and kind man. I saw another commenter say he’d sent him a mini replica in exchange for sending him some articles. The world needs more humans like Wayne!

[@jacktorrance2633]

Nothing wrong with being moved by something impressive or inspiring.

[@johngaller278]

I'm slicing onions over here myself. Don't worry !

[@RJH80]

Get yourself some toothpicks and glue and find happiness. ;)

Wayne is awesome. I'm friends with him on Facebook. Sent him some newspaper articles a few years ago from UK a few years ago. He sent me a mini Titanic he made :)

[@Daniel_Kani]

That's awesome :D

[@cats2927]

YOOO YOU TO :D

[@Sintaxx]

Some human beings are so creative and so talented that it defies logic. This guy is one of those humans. Gobsmacked at his work.

[@CoolestThing]

Agree! His patience to build, let alone let the glue dry while he's doing it is astounding!

[@enarccrane]

Some folks are blessed with the patience and grit necessary to accomplish anything .,,,had I tried to copy Wayne I'd have 10 unfinished pieces of junk in my house....this somewhat crazy guy is an inspiration!

[@hannesaltenfelder4302]

Probably one of the healthiest addictions ever. Love it❤

[@BillyJupiter]

Focus. Commitment. Will. This man is the Wick of Toothpick. What an absolute Legend

[@BackflipinBrandon]

This dude's patience is seriously admirable. Amazing works of art.

[@SongJLikes]

“People think I’m crazy.. I just say, ‘yeah’” 🤷‍♂️ Best reaction.

[@MichaelShirley-nl5pe]

His work is impressive. Love his dedication to his art.

[@kerlyn3582]

This man is a genius, he is humble and just so talented...those boats / ships are works of art. So, so inspiring.

[@FirelordRob76]

This man is a true artist and beautiful human. the part where his tools got trapped in the Queen Mary is one of the best things I've ever heard and his Wood Zeppelin animation is movie quality.

[@lewis730]

Super cool. Back in the mid-eighties, Kusy made some of the best rock and roll I’ve ever heard!

[@Charlielizard]

Phenomenal works of art. I can't imagine the patience it takes to spend over a year on each ship. This is truly a cool way to spend your time. I'd love the opportunity to be able to own one of his builds. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@spidersinspace1099]

I don’t know what’s more amazing. Building those works of art or keeping track of how many toothpicks it took to build. Also, I bet there’s never any food stuck in his teeth.

[@tutel9496]

Bro's out here keeping the toothpicks industry alive💀

[@danielwielki3490]

amazing job ,you are the best , thx for resumen👌👌👌👌👍

[@kukko83]

What a cool character! May he build many more ships, before his time comes.

[@JimDog794]

Very impressive! The man definitely has skills!

[@MarktheKid-eo1ij]

The ships are amazing!

[@joe-p9k4n]

No wonder the toothpick companies have managed to stay in business.

[@jayrobinson7554]

Wow you are extremely talented m8, that Queen Mary is impressive, well done.

[@blhtml]

[@TurnOffYourTV]

Genuine American Artist.

[@randomcitixen1254]

So thrilled to hear this is in Illinois, i will definitely be planning my trip to see his masterpiece replica of the queen Mary

[@hulkgqnissanpatrol6121]

He needs to get into the RC stuff! Imagine actualy sailing those

[@JoseManuel-of9xy]

És um grande artista parabéns pelo seu trabalho

[@joshthemediocre7824]

The ship he did at 11 years old is very impressive, he is the best in the world at something, that's pretty cool.

[@ptonpc]

Those are amazing!

[@davetherave5]

Fricken DOPE!! Love Wayne's passion & commitment to his craft as well as the badass stop motion video! P.s.: I'm also a fan of early steam ships like the Queen and their amazing history.

[@IamHopers]

This is amazing. Props to Wayne!! Amazing work!!!!!!!

[@justayoutuber1906]

It's great to see someone with passion for something your never even thought existed.

[@CoolestThing]

Agree! Well said!

[@antonioportugal5987]

My kind of crazyness. Amazing work.❤

[@THOMMGB]

Wonderful amazing work! Wayne's attention to detail, persistence and the ability to do tedious work for hours at a time takes a special person. I wish he could exhibit his 25 foot Queen Mary on the actual Queen Mary in Long Beach, California.

[@Emz_Jhaye]

Wow! Amazing masterpiece! 😍👍

[@anthonyrenaud5783]

Amazing work. I used to work on the Queen Mary when I lived in Long Beach.

[@wordup1944]

This guy has been given a unique gift from God.

[@CIS101]

Amazing. I used to be an ok model builder - did a really nice job a few times. I would never want to bother with anything like this, but it's still amazing.

[@95Gabe]

There is no such word as Legos. It is Lego or Lego bricks. What an incredible dedication to his art. Fantastic build.

[@davidpage3893]

Wayne, Have you considered to use thin flat sticks..like the disposable coffee stirrers you see at the coffee bar on the corner convenience store? You could bend and form them easier than tooth picks. And you could apply waterproof resin to the finished product and paint it. Try it out.

[@JonKuster]

really cool guy with great humor - such awesome fun results!!

[@jamesodonnell4771]

He gives off James Halliday from Ready Player One vibes. Just a sweet old man makin' his way downtown, walkin' fast, faces passed and he's homebound. dun nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh.

[@Sumivizion]

considering he has a full time job, he is building these massive models incredibly fast.

[@adamwiggins9865]

Really good for you!!

[@onazram1]

This is amazing and what a character! Best of luck in the future, and to many more projects. Shipwright.....

[@waldoanddenisestakes639]

This man is AMAZING!

[@chuckselvage3157]

That's so cool.

[@stephencard6808]

Wayne, Was your great, great, great, great grandfather named Noah? Wonderful work. Bravo!

[@FMFvideos]

If he can do this with toothpicks, imagine what he could do with popsicle sticks!

[@8675steve]

Or 2x4's

[@phoenixdown1947]

i don't think he would want that , his art expressions are for toothpicks.

[@brerrabbit9585]

Absolutely jaw dropping! Looks like the real thing. I`m working on the Bridge on the river Kwai, but it`s only 4 feet long.

[@Dark_Matter2]

I made ships but not in that great amount of detail! Great work!

[@STEVEN-STEELE]

Absolutely awesome, the patience this had to have taken. Iv always enjoyed model building and I once started building a ship in a bottle and lost interest. This inspired me to take it up again. Dug out the tweezers and carving knives. 😊

[@DjayPaniora]

Holy crap this is amazing 🤩

[@8675steve]

Incredible!

[@BrassMtn]

Great work!!! That is incredible! And I love the animations you did! Very incredible

[@Reimu__Hakurei]

Do they float.. Lol these look absolutely amazing.

[@jcbstauffer5720]

I haven't even seen the video and that is awesome.

[@CoolestThing]

It's a good one! One of the most interesting characters we've featured as well.

[@jcbstauffer5720]

@@CoolestThing to what i see in the thumbnail its the rms Queen Mary and i make similar scale model ships but in lego

[@CoolestThing]

Very cool stuff! Love it !@@jcbstauffer5720

[@robertschmidt7625]

This model ship museum needs a bigger building.

[@airtiki2374]

Dang! I thought I was something putting together the Revel? Queen Mary umpteen yrs ago.I did a good job which I am proud of but gheez this guy starts from scratch..much respect your creations are amazing!

[@generaltophat5877]

dude has good taste

[@sallyweiner4180]

Very cool!

[@JackFrost008]

[@Crazy_Caleb2009]

[@deborahbaker4770]

I LIVE IN CHICAGO ILLINOIS ALSO AND IV’E NEVER HEARD OF THIS MAN It has to take a lot of patience to do what he does 👍🏻 I could never have enough patience to do what he does

[@solless2504]

Hell yeah. Pretty cool stuff

[@janhansen554]

Very very impressiv. I love models alot and this was top of this.

[@7thsealord888]

This is frackin' awesome. Yep, totally insane, but absolutely in a good way. :)

[@incredifall]

Nice!!

[@FINEDENTIST]

Right on - 😁😁😁- JPL

[@Drachenhannes]

It's the Toothtanic!

[@lgjm5562]

He took his passion and turned it into commissions. He's been lauded in the news. He's also in a rock band. He holds down a full time job. Others may ridicule a seeming lack of socializing. But he apparently doesn't need or cares about that.

[@jacktorrance2633]

I wouldn't want the pressure of carrying those models down those stairs! The Cutty Sark was pretty sweet.

[@chuckaddison5134]

Made a small sailboat, years ago, out of coffee stiring sticks. But nowhere near this scale.
