14 year old made a model of a japanese WWll airplane for a report he did in class on Japanese WWll airplanes. And his classmates broke the model during his presentation. Perhaps not coincidentally he stopped liking school around this time. When all was said and done he spent about 30 hours making that model. But he had so much fun doing it he had no idea it took that long.
