Travis, is there any chance that sometime you might be able to make a very simple (toy-grade, without the case) model of the Edmund Fitzgerald?

Two years ago, my sister-in-law bought my son a picture book about the Edmund Fitzgerals (she probably thought it was a nice fun story about a ship, as she's from Russia...), and my son has been obsesses with it for years. He's watched multiple documentaries, read the story dozens of times, reenacts it with his bath toys, makes up songs about it, makes models of it out of legos, etc. Needless to say, he's all about the Edmund Fitzgerald!
