Abstract: A modular toy construction system employing frictional channel connections, which supports combining an assortment of simple modular components without special tools. The system includes a series of post, panels and foundation pieces. Channels are pre-cut to allow the panels to slide into place, or for connectors to seat in the channels of adjacent pieces forming a clean joint between two channeled parts. Assembly in this fashion provides a friction fit and achieves substantial stability. This stability is present in completed and partially assembled structures, allowing whole projects or sections thereof to be moved during construction with minimal risk of structural collapse. The system supports the possibilities of a wide variety of configurations and specialty pieces, which may be added to effect distinct characteristics, features and looks.
