        Pipe works plastic building toy
       
      
    
    
    
                  
        My kids have very fond memories of playing with their pipe works set. They built amazing stuff.  Now my first daughter is having her first child and I would love to find this toy for her.  Does anyone know where I can find a pipe works set?

I think this is similar to the toy you described:

Thanks for your response.  The toy I'm looking for involves PVC pipes and connectors and was a building toy.  One could build cars and houses and other things that were big enough for the kids to actually get inside of.  There were no marbles involved that I recall.  Any thoughts?  Thanks again
