Does this set use the classic k'nex sized pieces? or does it use the micro sized?

It uses the regular K'nex sizes pieces--the strong, well-made ones, not the flimsy sets like at ToyRUs. It is a fantastic set! My kids, ages 10 and 8 are thoroughly emjoying building bridges!

I received my set a few weeks ago and looking back I'm surprised I bought it without it having the sizes listed. Here they are: 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" 5/8" 3/4" 7/8" 1" 1-1/4" 1-1/2"

I uderstand your concern, I bought them in several pairs, so I don't actully known if you try to mate one bought earlier and would it work with a new set, but it seems to me if you buy a set with the same size dimension in this case at 1.5mm it should be an exact fit. Hope this answers your query.

Strangely, my set had mixed sizes. No kidding. Most are ¼". Some are 5/16". It's noticeable and I won't be able to use them for Mexican Train. I wish they were all uniformly thicker, 5/16 or more.

The real problem with this set is that some of the tips don't fit the standard couplers. They're too big around at the base, you can't secure it with the ring portion of the coupler. Some do, but who knows which ones are going to be the right size and which ones aren't ? The pieces are not numbered either. There is one similar to a Wilton #74. I haven't had reason to use it yet. My standard leaf tip is a 366 which is not included in this set.

This set is mini, I wouldnt let a small child play with it. Its really just for looks.

Other than to say "child sized", I can't get real specific. The whole set fits inside a shoebox sized plastic container you buy at WalMart or somewhere. I hope this helps. I don't have the set here with me. It's in another state.

Anything over 3mm should work fine, 4mm is ideal for smaller pieces I think

It uses the standard size, NOT the micro. But I'm sure you could use a micro with the standard size adapter that comes with them...........C

Yes, they do come in different sizes. This particular set that I purchased came in the standard size but the quality is horrible. Do not buy this one. I later bought a different one which is much better in quality and it is a little bit bigger in size. It is more expensive though, $20 compared to about $8. The one I am talking about the one I like) is: Domino Double Six - Black & White Two Tone Tile Jumbo Size with Spinners by CHH. Good luck

the set does contain a full length standard re sizing and decapping die. both sets do but I am not sure of other differences in sets or price.

I'm pretty sure it will, but I'm not an expert by any means. When I bought this set I really only neaded one of the 10 pieces. I think I only used the 10mm.

If I understand correctly, these are all the larger ones i.e. "K'NEX Classics," not "K'NEX mini'

Yes the standard size slide works perfect. I haven't tried any negatives but it works with them as well.
