Technology in hand, model maker builds on history of craftsmanship

摘要

At Built To Scale (BTS), a handful of artisans fashion a myriad of tiny detailed parts into, among other things, vessel models. The shop, a kind of computerized Santa's workshop free of snow and dwarfs but stuffed with tools, materials and models, is nestled in a pastoral setting east of the picturesque community of Fairhope, Ala., on Mobile Bay's eastern shore.
