"He (Roland) has a machine shop with a screw machine, so he can produce very fine parts. If you look at the wheels on the cart for the Lightning, each wheel has 12 spokes, 24 swedges, hub, rim, making 38 pieces in it. That way you get an exact rendition of the original. So when you look at the model, and at the original, they look exactly the same. That's how detailed we're getting with it."
