"I handed a replica to Fidel (Castro) and another to Raul (Castro), and since then I make models (of Granma) at the request of the authorities," Cardet told Xinhua.
Cardet has been making models of vehicles since his childhood. His first major creation was a locomotive made of cardboard based on an image in the magazine "Popular Mechanics."
"I made the body with a cardboard tube from toilet paper rolls," he recalled, laughing.
The veteran modeler, who also designed and built his own tools, is currently working on a scale model of Havana's San Agustin district as part of a community project known as the Artistic Laboratory of San Agustin.
