I didn't say lego as a 'childhood' thing... as I never really stopped.
Recently built the Orange porsche, The volvo digger and a merc lorry.
They are so overpriced, especially older models. Even recently discontinued models fetch 2x the original price. I'd like to build the 4X4 Crawler (9398) but new it's nearly £300 and used it's around £200. |

I remember probably my lego pinnacle!
I used to build the technical models and things like cars and trucks with the exposed engines and working gearboxs etc. I then always wanted to power them with a lego electric motor set. There was a buggy thing with a flat four boxer engine that I tried to fit the motor on top of to look like a supercharger. The tiny rubber band belt kept snapping so I gave up on that one.
But I built my own 4wd jeep thing after with almost all the bits from my masses of lego parts. I had a spare 540 size electric motor from my radio controlled car after I'd upgraded the motor. I made it fit where the passenger seat would be, and cable tied it to the chassis. It had a reduction gear to twin prop shafts driving the front and rear diffs.
I connected it with an extended cable to my Scaletrix 12v transformer and speed controller and used to make an obstacle course for it to climb. Its the only time in my life so far I've ever snapped a drive shaft or broke a diff.
Other shit I did was build a lego rolling road dyno for my Scaletrix cars, and I used to make geared up drives for lego piston engines and spin them as fast as I could with 12v sent to a lego motor to see if I could make them explode. I guess I've been breaking and fucking things up ever since. |

my brother had the rocket bike, there was a stone wheel inside and there were lighter flints on springs pressed up against it and it shot a lot of sparks out of the red tubes on the sides when you wound it up, super safe!
