i need help figuring out what the name of a toy i played with with i was young. it was kind of an outdoor activity. i used to have a box full of pipes.. white plastic pipes and at the ends of them were little connectors so different pipes fit on the ends of others. there was all different shapes and sizes of the pipes some were short or long and some were in an "L" shape. the activity came with a booklet that walked you through how to make different things such as a house or even a little car. the set came with little black wheels to complete the car! im going crazy trying to find the name and if they are still made. i want to say the name was something like Pipe works ...or pipe porks ... ive tried finding them on the internet and no luck can anyone help!!!

Have a look at this: K'Nex
Before the plastic K'Nex came out there was a wooden "version" called Tinkertoys, so that could be it.

Okay now, I think this question is thoroughly answered.

Lego>K'nex
The instructions were so much easier with many simple steps whereas K'nex had like three to five massive complex steps
