I had more fun with my Gilbert Chemistry set than you can imagine.
That's what got me interested in science and math to tell the truth.

My favorite thing was mixing up test sets for soil acidity, pH and
stuff like that. I even made a chemical Barometer once.

Man that was fun.

My brother has all our American Flyer train sets - one of my Dad's
friends at the Milwaukee Sentinel was a huge model train buff and gave
us a bunch of stuff every year. I never got into trains for some
reason - I was more into radios and chemicals. :)

I had chem sets and erector sets, too. I used to build some humongous
stuff with the erector sets, but if memory serves, there were no lock
washers, so everything eventually sort of loosed itself to bits.

I liked the part of the chemistry set where you made rocket fuel, etc. As
to erector sets, never had one, but since dad owned one of the bigger
machine shops in the area, I got to build with real steel. Could turn out a
great breech loading cannon on the lathe at 10 years old. Then could put
the chemistry set to use. Jetex fuses were the purchased parts.

"If memory serves," you lie a lot, so I'm sure there is absolutely no
doubt that you built the most humongouest erector set this side of the
Rockies. And that lobster boar, I'm sure it was the most beautiful
boat in the state of Maryland, or was it the boat for which no
registration could be found and then you said it was registered in
another unnamed state "for business reasons?"

Ah yes - explosives. We had plenty of explosives on the farm and I
got to help blow up rocks and tree stumps and gopher holes...

The Chemistry set was for something else.

Goes without saying. And if you had a friendly pharmacist with kids
in the neighborhood - WHOA MOMMA... :)

No, it was the United States then, and still is. Unless you're talking
about the continents.
