Frank Hornby's Meccano was great. I particularly liked the gear set that enabled you to make gear boxes, differential gears for cars and other interesting mechanisms. It was educational and fun. After assembling a complicated gear box or other assembly I hated the idea of stripping the assembled item down to recover the parts, so I always was short of parts for a new model.
