Number of sets shown as required in the above image refer to Classic or 1X sets. Where multiple sets are indicated as required, only one set is needed when using larger sets. See the chart below, and the Ordering page, for more information on these larger sets.

Using these basic components, a truly endless variety of simple or complicated designs can be constructed, limited only by your imagination! A few examples are shown above. Multiple sets can be combined for larger designs. Designs with motion can also be created using magnetic bearings as shown in the animations near the top of this page, composed of nothing more than the same basic steel balls and magnetic rods, assembled with attracting magnetic poles together.

QuickTime movies of several interesting designs in motion are also available. Note that several of the larger designs shown above require two or three sets. We invite you to visit the Gallery, where the designs of Roger's Connection^® owners are featured. The Manual section features an on-line Roger's Connection^® Instruction Manual, with color coded step-by-step instructions for constructing some basic designs. Our Science section, provides information and links on Synergetic Geometry and Design Science, for those who wish to understand the design of nature more deeply.

While Roger's Connection^® is used to teach profound geometric principles the world over, it is equally at home as an endlessly rewarding building toy for kids, and as the ultimate executive desk toy for adults! While playing, children learn profound mathematical principles without even realizing it, that they take with them into their adult lives and professions.
