Anyone aware of childrens building systems by them. (Modern version of Meccano
- but much better).


Yes, much better. I had stacks of FT stuff when I was a kid. FWIW.



Were you living in England?


Yes. IIRC I came across it in an idependent model/toy shop.

- I first came across it in Holland about
1979/1980. Very, very precise fittings. I was brought up on Meccano in the
fifties - I wish I had had FT !!


I was brought up on lego, but discovered FT in time :-)
