I think I'd describe Znap as a cross between Technic Lego and Construx (I'm not sure if Construx was ever available in Sweden). It's basically a node-and-beam building (...)

The ones in Znap are "drive" axles, they allow the motor to be in one orientation and the item(s) driven to be in another. It uses a (...)
