Benefits of technology

[0004]The play construction set provides a means whereby children and youth may develop creativity and problem-solving skills in a recreational setting. The set is comprised of wooden strut pieces, wooden connector pieces, and a couple building tools, namely pliers and a mallet. The design of the pieces allows for many possible building configurations. The quality of the pieces gives the configurations the capacity to be used for a real purpose, i.e. the structural stability of the pieces would allow a good chair design to be sturdy enough to hold the weight of a human. For extra stability, glue can be applied to hold the connector and strut pieces in place. The strut pieces come in many shapes, sizes, and colors. Some such shapes are cylindrical, octagonal prisms, and triangular prisms.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]A construction set is a set of standardized pieces that allow for the construction of a variety of different models. The pieces avoid the lead-time of manufacturing custom pieces, and of requiring special training or design time to construct complex systems. This makes them suitable for temporary structures, or for use as children's toys. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem.[0002]Construction sets can be categorized according to their connection method and geometry. There are struts, panels, notches, sleeves, studs, and magnets, among others. Each type of set has various advantages and limitations dependent upon its form. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem either.[0003]There exists a need for a play construction set that is not being met by any known or disclosed device or system of present.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]The play c...
