We all know what Viagra does to certain specific anatomical parts.

"Erector" sets were the building blocks of the 50s and 60s. One of those was called "Mechano". You can still buy them - medal girders, nuts and bolts, wheels, instructions. There are multiple brands out there.

I "thought" servo was another brand. Maybe GN can enlighten us on this one?

Well, erector was a play on words as Viagra is for erections. Viagra helps some people with problems with erections, hence is an erector.

A servo is a powered device that moves or affects another device. It's a robotics term these days. In English, flexi is a brand of extensible dog leash. In Germany (at least while I was there), it had become (Like Kleenex in the US) a generic name for any type of extensible/retractable dog leash.
