Can't afford a high-end Canon dSLR? Well, if you're handy, you can pretend to own one by making this wood model. Found on Canon's Camera Museum site are instructions on how to paste, cut, and shape pieces of balsa wood to make a dSLR model.

Looking at the instructions, it's not an easy task, so don't expect to be able to make one yourself just because you're capable of assembling some papercraft models. If you do make one successfully, this will make a great home decorative piece for showing off how crafty you are.

Read the instructions here.
