I love fixing things / putting things together, always have since I was a kid and would fix random things!

Haven't pursued a job that includes this though and fancy it as a hobbie but what can I do?! I'd love to rebuild a vehicle of some sort but can't be bothered with all the tools / perishables plus not got room!

No airfix models either or anything that'll make me look odd!

there are more advanced/adult things than airfix, can make free flight gliders or planes from scratch..... i used to to it simply because i liked woodwork

Will it fly? :)

something like that might be good, once I'm done building it though I'd like to sell as it could become expensive otherwise. People buy R/C cars etc right? Could go for petrol ones, or helicopters?

not really much to cars and heli's can get complicated

planes are good i enjoy making then, I've built a few from scratch but then i fly them and don't sell.......... or crash them and cry :(

Model Boat. Fun and simple. If you make a hydrofoil type (similar to the mental drag boats) they can do upwards of 70mph!!! :cool:

Buy an old bike and build it into something special.
