Im old, and have seen the downfall of craftsmanship. People can say im stuck in the past, and im ok with that, because i still use modern things. My house and most things in it are from the early 1900s, and unlike IKEA things, they last. Like your Dummy, you can see the craftsmanship that went into it.
