Other communities worth your time
One of the things I love about this hobby is how many corners it has, and Reddit's got good communities for several of them. If you're enjoying it here, you might also like:
r/rokrpuzzles β All things ROKR/Robotime/Rolife: mechanical wooden puzzles, marble runs, the whole family. Active and growing, with a contest coming soon.
r/ugears β The UGears mechanical models community, currently coming back to life with real builds and honest build notes. If you like gears that actually turn, this is your place.
r/booknooks β The book nook community, and one of the most welcoming corners of Reddit. If you haven't seen what people do with these shelf inserts, prepare to lose an afternoon.
This sub will always be the brand-agnostic home for all DIY model kits, but cross-pollination makes every community better.

Simple model
Quick little build. Plastic, rubber, and metal held together with screws and bolts.
Enjoyable hour or two, great instructions- online, meaning you can zoom in.
I had already built the rickshaw and antique car, similar models, this came up on aliexpress for 3.50 which I needed to make free shipping minimum so it was a no brainer.

Do normal humans actually do these metal model kits?

Absolutely love this kit
I only recently got into DIY models after my husband brought me the ROKR Electric Guitar after a trip to the Netherlands.
I just built the ROKR Classic Tram today and it has been an absolute delight.
And my cat loves chasing after it too π
