Introduction

LEGO Technic is not like traditional LEGO, as its focus is not building a world for minifigures. Instead, LEGO Technic is about constructing creations that are larger in scale, and work like complex machines. LEGO Technic has had a very complex history with advances made every year since 1976, and the pieces allow for some interesting functionality for mechanical creations. Once you are able to obtain many LEGO Technic pieces at an affordable price, it is rather easy to sort them based on functionality.
