I spotted this range of clip together kits in one of my local bargain stores - HomeBargains - and thought I would buy some as my grandson has been enjoying putting similar kits together. These kits look like they are laser cut plastic of a good standard and they are clockwork. They are a little advanced for my grandson to assemble alone so we did it together. This is the 4th one we have done now and he is getting the confidence to assemble the pieces himself. I help by holding parts still while he snaps the next piece in place. If you have a question it is probably worth reading this video description first because the answer may already be here. To help you find my videos I made a YouTube search guide video https://youtu.be/ceBSOoOHcgw or checkout my playlists page https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists?flow=grid&view=1 Main components - Clockwork Classic Cars Dune Buggy The box says TRANS PACIFIC LTD L1 0BP I did a quick search and found http://trans-pacific.co.uk/ which has that L1 0BP post code but nothing like this item on it's stock list so I would guess this is discontinued stock being sold off by the bargain store. Certainly they were listed as £2.99 each but reduced to 99p so that would make sense. I even found an ended listing on eBay set of 4 for £9.75 Main Tools - None Filmed using FujiFilm FinePix S4800 Edited using Serif MoviePlus Starter Edition The background music is from the YouTube Audio Library Walking the Dog by Silent Partner Related playlists Assembly playlist http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB3lGxxzEo_ZDnjnOtIlk50Q Clockwork https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1D-93lQxyjysBGrhqkQn52 I have over 2000 videos on YouTube covering a wide range of subjects.

OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap. https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
