Getting Started with Playable Metal

Playable Metal blocks are made in aluminum alloy. There are 10 modular shapes that can be interconnected with specially designed screws. This ingenious design makes building true 3-dimensional structures possible with its patented connecting mechanism that allows two adjacent blocks to be secured easily in any angle.

Assembly Instructions

Connect two blocks
Only a "+" (plus) block and a "-" (minus) block can be interconnected, and a double-headed screw must be used for the assembly:
1. Align the screw's "+" end to the hole on the "+" block, and "-" end to the hole on the "-" block.
2. Insert L-shaped wrench and turn counter-clockwise (direction toward "-" block) to tighten.
3. Adjust blocks to a desired angle before fully tighten it. Do not over tighten the screw.
4. To disconnect the blocks, turn the wrench clockwise.

Connect accessaries to "+" blocks
To connect various accessories such as aluminum rods to "+" blocks, use "+" screws:
1. Insert the rod into the hole to a desired position.
2. Insert a "+" screw to the hole on a near side, turn the wrench clockwise to tighten.
3. Turn the wrench counter-clockwise to loosen it.
4. To fully secure the rod, it’s best to apply two screws on different sides.

Connect accessaries to "-" blocks
Use "-" screws to connect accessories to "-" blocks. Turn wrench counter-clockwise to tighten, clockwise to loosen.
