Can't even imagine digi-yoof being allowed x-acto hobby knifes, polystyrene cement, Humbrol enamel, thinners (OK - who didn't clean the paintbrush in the bottle?) or many of the other things we used at the age of 6 without supervision. That's if they have any interests beyond iPods and drugs. And as for cellulose dope and diesel fuel.... Or even Jetex pellets.
I never dispatched a model with explosives - but the odd one which was beyond repair did get the BSA Meteor .22 treatment!
