I didn't have Legos when I was a kid, I had Lincoln Logs & I could build anything with them: big cabin, small cabin, you name the cabin.
@westly I can remember how they smelled with shag carpet bits stuck in them.
@westly and many unfloatable rafts!
@westly The best thing to build with Lincoln Logs was catapults.
@westly you could make planks, too. My cabins had blanks out over blue clay shark-and-alligator infested seas and the occasional swap. After that James Bond movie, I added piranha!
@westly
I never had enough to actually build a cabin, but I could build a heck of a cabin foundation.
@westly I had both, and tinker toys, robotix, and an erector set. I preferred the erector set, still have it, in fact.
@westly My cousin had a girder and panel set. My, the metropolises we built!
