When I was about eight I got a Meccano set for Christmas, and I still have it! (For those that know what Meccano is). All sorts of mechanical bits and pieces, I-beams, flat plates, axles, gears, nuts and bolts, even a clockwork motor! Link follows...

Putting a circuit together is much the same, you use the appropriate part to fit what's required. That's a simplification, as often the 'magic part' you need doesn't exist, so you dream up an alternative - mechanically you'd fabricate the part you need. That often is the hardest part.
