Major revision

My major revision was prompted by my realization that I have never seen a strut system based on a D_6h node. Eassin 21:46, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Explaining the notation

I think it would be worthwhile to explain what the notation in the examples means, e.g. C2v (*22) nodes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.36.192.101 (talk) 14:43, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Split between industrial and toys

Someone should divide the article content between "toys" and industrial components. --70.142.41.253 (talk) 14:43, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Construction Set Comparison

Could someone please make a graph which compares:

What each set does or does not have
The size of each of the units it has

I want to buy the best set I can for some novice practise engineering but am not sure what is the best novice option

I don't think it is useful to list sets by category like that. Most systems have components in more than one category - for example Technical Lego is listed separately from Lego, althhough it is compatible with the Lego brick-and-stud system. Similarly Fischertechnik is listed only as a brick-and-stud system, but it also has panels and struts held together by plastic twist fasteners in a similar manner to the Meccano nuts and bolts. So I agree we need a matrix to say what features each system has and doesn't have, rather than the division into (somewhat arbitrary) categories. Philbelb (talk) 15:13, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bayko

I would add Bayko, but I don't know how best to describe its connection method. Maproom (talk) 11:51, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Research by Y-Komm.

Y-Komm is a official Naming for a discrete or conspirately operating group of intelligence Members all over the World, that verify possible Influency but yet unknown faction, founded as a kind of paranoic fear against Red Commies, and vice versa imperalistic mind screwing slavery, in moderns Times it's sub-laying to Seti, Radar Super Telescopes and "the Internet".

Block Building seems in Deep Regression Psychology, to be derived form sort of higher A.I. Block Build or Selfbuild, Subject under deep relaxing near Sleep described very extensive about giant Structure, answering almost any Question, and managing a whole lot of sphlendid daily Stuff.

Thies Superblocks seems to be inherently based on Light an sort of Crystals, an lesser but regular occuring Sound, filled with Fear of mayor breakdowns.

Some minor Group of interrogated(Back in Iron Curtain Times) described the Blocks as Entirely Hostile to human nature of a fulfilled Life in Freedom, mention supposely the Consumer dependency in Western imperalism, or some technological Dictator-Shipment in planet wide Scaling, with presumption of being the one and only God.

In Fact at beginning, all Interrogated stamp in Files as possible Non Human Origins, meaning non religious Clean earthly, what ever that means, the were and are as Lineage, observed til today.

Playing Blocks are Evil. What is not the official Statement of The Y-Komm. But oddly they seems to be, never the less, gifted beyond normal Scalings
