As Makers who love to build, craft and create with our hands, a lot of us grew up with iconic building blocks such as LEGO, Meccano and other fantastic toys. However, now that we’re older, it’s obvious that these toys are just that – toys – and if we want to continue building things, we need to start looking into serious mechanical components.

As Makers who love to build, craft and create with our hands, a lot of us grew up with iconic building blocks such as LEGO, Meccano and other fantastic toys. However, now that we’re older, it’s obvious that these toys are just that – toys – and if we want to continue building things, we need to start looking into serious mechanical components.
With this in mind, we would like to introduce our Linear Motion Components category, which is dedicated to what we like to call “LEGO for Grown-Ups”, and is filled with strong, rigid, and easy to assemble mechanical components. These include parts like Leadscrews and Smooth Rods, Bearings, Belts and Pullets, as well as Couplers and Supports to easily attach parts together – and all of these can be used together to create truly marvellous projects that knock the socks off of all your old LEGO and Meccano projects.
It’s time to put that creative thinking cap back on like when you were a kid, and get back into the spirit of building “Awesome Things” with our range of Linear Motion Components. Additionally, if you want to really step up your projects, consider looking at our Motors / Controllers Category, as well as our Modular Extrusions Category, which will certainly pique your interest if you love to build.
