Those little kids are way better at soldering than I am. It is what it is.

You can make your own relay by wrapping a wire around a nail as your electro magnet and then a door latch for your switch. Get creative

Maybe glue banana skins to your old tires instead of buying new tires...another fine example of creativity...
