My Dad bought me an Erector set when I was about 7 - I spent countless hours making all sorts of weird and wonderful things with it. The only thing you added was imagination.
The sad thing is a toy like that would never pass the nanny state mentality we have now.

The Erector set was my answer too. They lasted for years until my Dad eventually stole all the nuts and bolts and girders to ‘fix’ various stuff around the house. ;~))
