Hobby shop

Some hobby shops sell R/C cars, pinewood derby kits,[1] boats, and model or remote control planes.

Such stores sometimes may also contain community space for hobbyists (gamers) to mingle and play games.

In recent years, board and card game hobby shops have often become part-cafes.

Computer hobby shops have traditionally sold computers, related network equipment, and services, more often than not, they are selling training in software like Adobe PhotoShop, Autodesk 3ds, web design and other creative software pursuits.

As technology continues to evolve, the post "dot com" computer hobby shops have transformed these equipment and services to hands-on training environments where people gather and learn from one another.
