"I wanted to make a big boat to commemorate her," he said. "Maybe this is the biggest ship made from matchsticks."
Urbanski has also made a replica of part of the Great Wall of China, which took him several months and around 150,000 matches. He also has replicas of the Eiffel Tower, Golden Gate Bridge, a soccer stadium, truck and small house.
A local celebrity, he likes to make the sculptures as gifts and rarely sells them.
