Abstract
A set of building components includes at least connector components and elongate members. A connector component includes a main body and one or more receptacles. In some embodiments, a connector component may also include male studs and/or female receiving areas configured to couple the connector to other components or conventional building blocks which include the corresponding feature. The elongate members can be secured within the receptacles of the connectors and, in some embodiments, may include slots along a lateral surface to facilitate this connection and provide an additional coupling for further building components. Moreover, in some embodiments, a set of building components may also include sliders configured to be movably coupled around the elongate members. The sliders may also include male studs and/or female receiving areas in some embodiments.
