the completeparts referenceHere’s a detailed overview of all the pieces in your LEGO BOOST kit. You canalso identify LEGO elements precisely by their LEGO ID, which is printed onthe LEGO BOOST test pad.bricksFIGURE S-1 shows the LEGO bricks included in the LEGO BOOST set; their names arelisted in TABLE S-1. For each type of brick, only one color is shown, even when you canfind the part in more than one color in the LEGO BOOST set, as listed in the table. LEGObricks are measured and identified by the number of the studs they have on top. Thesmaller number always comes first, so you say “a 2-by-4 brick,” not “a 4-by-2 brick.” Thewidth of a 1x1 LEGO brick is the Fundamental LEGO Unit, or module (1 module or 1M isabout 8 mm). The LEGO building system is based on this unit, and this consistent unit ofmeasurement will allow you to add your existing LEGO collection to your BOOST robots.1

tilesTiles are like plates without studs. You can use tiles for decorative purposes, tomake flat surfaces, or to build sliding structures (that is, with a brick or a platesliding onto them). Tiles are shown in FIGURE S-7, and their names are listed inTABLE S-7. Tiles have a little groove along their bottom edge to make it easier todetach them. You can use the sharp end of the LEGO element separator as leverto do so (see instructions for using the brick separator on page 6 of the book).ABFCGDHFIGURE S-7 LEGO tilesEIJTABLE S-7 the LEGO tilesLABELNAMECOLORAtile 1x1 roundorangeBtile 1x2orangeCtile 1x3whiteDtile 1x4orangeEtile 1x8whiteFtile 2x2red, blueGtile 2x2 round with holeorangeHtile 2x4yellow, red, blue, green, black, whiteItile 2x2 invertedpinkJpanel 1x2x1dark greydishesFIGURE S-8 shows the dishes; their names are listed in TABLE S-8.

These elements allow you to build in different directions, such as to theside or even upside down. In FIGURE S-9, you can see how this technique wasused in Vernie’s construction.Notice that the sensor is mounted upside down and that the studs of thepart that forms the eye are facing backward. Do you recognize that part? Exactly,that’s the slide shoe you saw above!FIGURE S-9 Vernie featuresa lot of examples of the SNOTbuilding technique.stud directionSNOT partindicator8SUPPLEMENT

The SNOT building technique can make your models look more beautiful,but it can also strengthen assemblies. FIGURE S-10 and TABLE S-9 list the SNOTelements. The brackets are described by their number of vertical studs and horizontal studs.ABCDEFGHFIGURE S-10 SNOTelementsTABLE S-9 the SNOT elementsLABELNAMECOLORAbracket 1x2, 1x2 downorangeBbracket 1x2, 1x2 upredCbracket 1x2, 1x4 downgreyD1x1 brick with headlightyellowEbracket 1x2, 2x2 downwhiteFbracket 1x2, 2x2 upblackGplate 2x2x2/3 with two studs on the sidewhiteHbrick 1x2x2 with studs on the sideredslopes andcurved bricksFIGURE S-11 and TABLE S-10 show slopes and curved bricks. These elementsare mostly used as decorative parts or to replace bricks to get more interestingdesigns. Sometimes, slopes and curved bricks can be used to build small rampsor bevel borders to ease the sliding of objects inside a slot. The slope elementsare named by the angle in their name; for example, slope brick 45 2x2 inverted.The element labeled A is also known as the “cheese slope” because its shaperesembles a slice of cheese.the complete parts reference9

This category includesstraight beams and angular beams (sometimes called liftarms). Beams can haveround holes where you can fit pins, or cross holes where you can insert axles oraxle pins. FIGURE S-12 shows these parts; their names are listed in TABLE S-11.The beams are measured by counting their holes. For example, a straight beamwith three holes is a 3M beam. The number of holes in a beam corresponds tothe length of the beam. As for the bricks, their size is expressed in FundamentalLEGO Units or modules.FIGURE S-12 Beams andliftarms1MABJCDKEFGHILthe complete parts reference11

Some may seem unrelatedto the others, but they all do one basic thing: they connect parts. When buildingwith wood, we use nails, glue, staples, screws, and so on to connect pieces. Inthe wonderful LEGO Technic realm, we use pins, axles and bushes, axle connectors, and the various cross blocks.pins and axle pinsPins hold beams together when fitted inside their round holes. Pins are dividedinto two groups: pins with friction and pins without friction. FIGURE S-13 andTABLE S-12 show pins and 3M pins, axle pins, pins with towballs, and some special 3M pins. This last category is represented by the pin with a stop bush (alsocalled a bushing) and two kinds of long axle pins.12SUPPLEMENT

They are color coded: 2M pins are always grey, while 3Mpins and axle pins are tan. Pins without friction are used mainly to connect moving beams. An axle pin without friction can be used to hold a gear so that it canturn freely. A 3M pin without friction (tan) exists, but it’s not included in the LEGOBOOST set.The pins with friction (D through J) have ridges that increase friction andmake the pin harder to turn. These also prevent connections from rattling. Thepins are color coded to help you identify their function. The 2M pins with frictionare always black, and 3M pins and axle pins with friction are blue. The 3M pinswith stop bushes come in many colors, but they’re light grey in the BOOST set.There are also special 3M axle pins (I and J).the complete parts reference13

Pins with friction are great for building structures because they hold beamstogether better than pins without friction.crosses and holesBuild the following assemblies. Each one has a symbol to help you pick theright pieces. Pins with friction (black or blue) are on the left, and smoothpins (grey or tan) are on the right. A plus ( ) indicates axle pins, and a circleindicates round pins. Once you’ve built the assemblies, hold the orange beam and try tomake the inclined beam swing. What happens in each case? In the rightmost assemblies, hold the Technic brick or the angularbeam and try to turn the red cranks. Which one is the easier to turn?(It’s a trick question.)with frictionsmoothaxles and bushesAxles are designed to transfer rotational movement—for example, from a motorshaft to a wheel. Axles can also be used to hold structures together. Sometimescalled cross axles because of their shape, they fit perfectly into parts that havecross holes, such as gears, angular beams, and cross blocks.Like beams, axles come in many lengths. You can measure an axle by puttingone next to a brick and counting the studs in the brick. You can also measure anaxle by putting one next to a beam and counting the holes. Once you get used toworking with axles, you will be able to sort them by size at a glance, without measuring them. This superpower really amazes people—and will save you a lot of time!14SUPPLEMENT

Axles are color coded, as you can see in FIGURE S-14: the 2M, 4M, and 10Maxles are red, and the 3M and 7M axles are yellow. The BOOST set includes aspecial tan 4M axle (4c) with a cylindrical stop in the middle, as well as someaxles with a stop (3s, 4s, 5s, and 8s). In these axles, the stop looks like a built-inbush, and it stops the axle from passing through a hole or a cross hole. In the4M axle, the stop in the middle stops the axle from passing completely through across hole.In FIGURE S-14, there are also two bushes, labeled B1 (yellow, 1 half-modulethick) and B2 (red, 1 module thick). You’ll usually fit these bushes over axles toprevent them from coming out of holes, or you’ll use them to keep space betweentwo or more elements of a structure. Since the bushes are mainly used with axles,I’ve listed them with the axles here.2B1B23FIGURE S-14 Axles andbushes (the Technic brickat the bottom is shown forcomparison)3s44c4s5s5.578s91012cross blocks and connectorsHere comes the fun! Cross blocks are essential to studless building because theyallow you to build—and think—in three dimensions. FIGURE S-15 shows the crossblocks and the connectors, and TABLE S-13 lists their names. The angle connector labeled H is part of a large family of connectors; you can identify these by thenumber embossed on their body. The part labeled I can be used as a gear box tohold 90-degree-coupled 12z and 20z bevel gears. The end of the curved connector labeled M can accept axles but can also fit on studs.the complete parts reference15

The best way to learn how touse these is to draw your inspiration from the projects in this book and from themany Technic models in the wild.16SUPPLEMENT

hingesFIGURE S-16 shows elements that you can assemble to form hinges; TABLE S-14lists their names. These hinges cannot freely rotate. They resist rotation, holdingtheir position better than two beams connected by a black pin with friction. Tryconnecting them and clicking them around. You can rotate hinge A B C in twoways (it has two moving axes and so two degrees of freedom), while hinge D Ebends just one way.FIGURE S-16 Parts that youcan assemble into hingesABDCEA B CD ETABLE S-14 the hinge elementsLABELNAMECOLORApin with friction and snap jointblackBTechnic brick 2x2 with vertical snap jointdark azureCTechnic brick 2x2 with snap joint socketdark greyD3M beam with snap joint pingreyE3M beam with snap joint socketdark greygearsGears mesh with other toothed parts to transmit movement. FIGURE S-17 showsthe gears included in the EV3 set, with their corresponding names in TABLE S-15.The LEGO gears are identified by their number of teeth, as indicated in theirname followed by z; for example, a 24-tooth gear is called a 24z gear.the complete parts reference17

The 24z gear (E) is a spur gear, but theword spur can be omitted when naming it (16z and 40z spur gears also exist inthe LEGO system). The 28z turntable (G) can be used to attach rotating parts thatcannot be pulled apart (see Vernie’s neck in FIGURE S-9) and allows you to pass anaxle through its center. A gear rack (H) is like an unrolled gear that allows you totransform rotation into linear motion.18SUPPLEMENT

studless vs. studded stylesThe LEGO BOOST set includes both studded and studless parts, and if youknow how to mix them together, you’ll get sturdy and beautiful models. Nowthat you’ve seen all the pieces, try building the simple models in FIGURE S-18to get a sense of the two building styles. Each one achieves the same goal,but a bit differently.A Simple gear system attached on Technic bricks and on beams. There’sa two-plate offset between bricks to put the gears’ axles at the rightdistance. Building at a right angle. The holes of the two black beams are notaligned horizontally. Can you find a different solution? Gear box with axles forming a right angle. The studless version is morecompact.BCFIGURE S-18 Some example assemblies comparing studded and studless building techniqueswheels and treadsThe simplest and most efficient way for your robots to move is on wheels. TheLEGO BOOST set contains two medium wheels with rubber tires, some largeplastic wheels, some tiny wheels, sprocket wheels of two sizes, and tread linksto assemble treads complete with orange rubber pads to enhance the tread’sgrip.
