Crafty designers have created a life-sized cardboard Abrams A1 army tank. The tank was created entirely from recycled cardboard boxes, a couple of PVC pipes and chicken wire. Shaped and built around a truck, the tank can actually drive around and move just like a real army tank.
The cardboard Abrams A1 army tank is actually pretty cool; however, I'm not entirely sure how I would react if I saw it driving down the street. More importantly, what happens when it rains and the cardboard gets mushy? Disastrous!
