Museum Men

Creative Arts is tasked with one of their biggest builds to date: Help boost attendance at the St. Petersburg Museum of History by creating an all-new exhibit around the museum's own Egyptian mummy, The Lady of the Nile. The Museum Men's solution? King Tut. They will create an exhibit that showcases the museum's Lady of the Nile side-by-side the world's most well-known Egyptian mummy. But the team will have to come up with a new and innovative exhibit that can fit the museums needs and lives up to the public's lofty expectations of this famous pharaoh. Meanwhile, Daryl puts on his mad-scientist lab coat and builds a lightning-shooting Tesla Coil for science students at a local elementary school.

Creative Arts is creating a full-scale midget submarine, the WWII German Seehund, for the Tampa Bay History Center. This life-sized sub will help visitors understand the extreme conditions the Nazis endured, both inside cramped quarters and above water at war. It will also showcase the weaponry that threatened America's Greatest Generation. This will be one of Creative Art's most complicated builds to date as the team must figure out how to best display the inside of the Seehund while still maintaining the iconic submarine silhouette. The team will also build a secret door bookcase for the VIP room at Ciro's Speakeasy. Their design must match Ciro's unique 1920s ambiance, but also function smoothly as a door.

The Museum of Science and Industry looks to expand its space race exhibit, hiring the creative arts team to re-create the iconic Apollo 13 and build a heat shield for the museum's existing Mercury capsule.

American pilot Chuck Yeager flew this experimental rocket plane in an effort to break the sound barrier; this record-setting flight was the envy of the world as numerous countries attempted to build a plane fast enough to break the speed of sound.

Creative Arts has been commissioned by the Sarasota Classic Car Museum to build a full-scale replica of President Abraham Lincoln's Springfield funeral carriage. This not only has to look authentic with all of the Victorian details, but it actually has to work and be pulled by a team of horses, just like Lincoln's carriage was. Roger and his team will have just 17 days to make it, the same number of days that the city of Springfield had to make its carriage for Lincoln. Creative Arts will also build a knight's suit of armor for Nate's close friend who is hoping to wear the suit in a Renaissance-era joust. Nate and Daryl visit a master armor maker and learn the way suits of armor were made 400 years ago.

Creative Arts has been commissioned by the Tennessee Museum of Aviation--home to one of the best historical aircraft collections in the country--to build the Skycycle X-2, the rocket used by Evel Knievel in his most famous daredevil stunt. Knievel used the Skycycle to attempt an 1,800 foot jump across Idaho's Snake River Canyon. Creative Arts will bring this flying machine to life, focusing on the streamlined fuselage and minimalist cockpit, the fighter plane-inspired nose and tail, and the signature paint scheme that matched Evel's flashy personality. The team will also be building President Kennedy's Resolute Desk for the retired mayor of Tampa.
