Young C Park, a retired dentist from Honolulu, Hawaii, spends thousands of hours painstakingly working on fully functional models of famous fighter planes.

Conversions of liquid measurements are tricky. In the United States, we have numerous ways for measuring liquid, and they don’t match up very easily or very gracefully.
