I had an erector set when I was a kid! You could build some things, but the pre-drilled holes in the metal pieces made it so you could only build certain things, it was hard to get the holes to line up every time.
I used to cut my hands on the sharp-metal-edges of the poorly-punched sheet-metal girders and other parts, and have to go get a band-aid.
If you tightened the metal screws too tightly on the metal girders, it bent them, ruining the pieces. Too loose, and your contraption would fall apart.
Aww, the good old days of 1972.
