Street Track Perspective

A city street that clicks together. Road tiles for toy cars — straights, curves, a 4-way and a T with crosswalks, a parking lot, cul-de-sacs, a traffic circle — plus lots with houses, a shop, a garage a car drives into, a school. Every end is the same joint, so any piece meets any piece, any way round, and the town gets rebuilt every afternoon. Sized for Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. Start with a set, add packs, or pick piece by piece; the road, curb, markings, lawns, walls and roofs each in a color you choose.

Each set grows out of the one before - start small, add on later. Every piece clicks onto every other.

Painted in the lane of every straight, in the markings color - the town's own street. Up to 14 characters.

The Neighborhood. Lots are 100 mm squares of lawn with a sidewalk along the front and the same joint on all four edges, so they click onto the side of any straight and onto the next lot. Four pegs stand on each lot; every building has the same four holes underneath, so any building sits on any lot and lifts off. The garage is open at the front - a car drives in. The roofs lift off too. A hole at the front corner takes the traffic light or the stop sign.

How it fits together. Every road end carries the same dovetail: a tab on the left, a socket on the right, so two ends meet whichever way round they're turned, and a set clicks onto any other set. Tiles are 3 mm PLA plates with the curb line and the lane markings raised on top in their own colors — the joints have a little clearance and hold on a hard floor or a rug. A straight is 100 mm; an intersection is the same, so the town lays out on a grid and a loop always comes round. The traffic circle is 200 mm across, the largest piece, made flat on one bed. Nothing is glued; nothing has small parts.
