Construction apparatus comprising at least two regular polygonal generally planar members, each of said members having along each edge thereof an elongate socket of generally circular cross-section and comprising two mutually aligned, spaced-apart sections, at least one connector comprising a pair of cylindrical rods held together in a mutually generally parallel, laterally spaced side by side relationship by a cross-piece located in the region of the middle of the length of said rods, the diameter of each of said rods being such as to be a close fit within a said elongate socket, each of said generally circular elongate sockets having a linear gap in its circumference, generally parallel to the length of the socket, to permit insertion of a said cylindrical rod, and each of said connectors having a pair of circular sockets adapted to receive the ends of the rods of another connector.
