JAWBONES The Buildable Art System User manual

Welcome to JAWBONESTM
The Buildable Art SystemTM
with construction pieces
that swivel, ratchet and snap
together in countless ways.
The possibilities for unique
creations are limited only
by one’s imagination. Fifty
precision quality pieces in this set should provide many
hours of enjoyment for any young architect.
The basic piece shapes and types of connections shown
on pages 3-6 are used to build the models or to create
original works of art. At the top of pages 7-18 is the name

model illustrated are several close up photographs which
show the important construction details. On the left side of
the page is a complete list which shows all of the pieces
