As someone who works with computers, I'm glad we don't have memory like them... I was up half the night trying to recover files from a failing hard drive! (And no, that's not meant to be a metaphor for my aging brain...
shut up!)
I grew up on a farm and always dreamed of building an estate railway for hauling firewood, hay, manure, etc. to and from the back forty. Maybe even a bus-replacement tram to bring my friends to school, and of course, drive steam trains around the yard. As I've grown up my ambitions (and my garden) have become much smaller, and my time has only been more constrained... but getting a 3D printer finally enabled me to start building
something to run outside. Now a big part of the enjoyment is sharing it with my young children, who serve as both inspiration and torture test for all of my large-scale models.
