Now this is just cool...

Someone must really like National SW-3s,
because he built a "labour of love:"
a tiny replica of the SW-3, complete with plug-
in coils for 160-80-40-20 mtrs that actually PLAYS.
It receives at headphone level. Antenna tune
control on the bottom left, regen control bottom
right, tuning etc.  It uses 3 subminiature tubes
and the tiny replica "dog house" power supply
primary is 115 VAC.  The radio is a 4 inch cube.
Check out the 9V battery as a reference.
