What-Ifs on Tested! This model group had a challenge to build something alternative out of the new-tool Aoshima Back To The Future De Lorean:

"Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot."
 - Sandman: A Midsummer Night's Dream, by Neil Gaiman

"I dunno, I'm making this up as I go."

Apologies for the necro catching up on this thread, but...

One of the very first things my grandfather told me the first time I joined him out in his machine shop as a wee'un.... "Never forget, son, that every little thing in here has one very big thing in common, and that is that the second you don't respect it it kills you." A steak through the bandsaw made that point crystal clear...

And I had to forward that WWI dogfight video to the Wings of War crowd. :)
