1. An electrically conductive block component comprising:

  • a main block section having first and second faces opposed to one another and a first channel extending through the main block section from the first face to the second face, wherein the respective first and second faces are substantially outermost surfaces of the main block section; and

    a first conductive pin positioned within the first channel and having first and second end portions proximate the first and second faces, respectively, wherein the first and second end portions of the first conductive pin are configured so that the electrically conductive block component can be both physically assembled with and electrically coupled to another electrically conductive block component, wherein the first and second end portions of the first conductive pin have first and second complementary shapes, and wherein the first end portion of the first conductive pin is a head forming a protrusion out of the main block section beyond the first face, and the second end portion of the first conductive pin is a base including an indentation recessed into the second face of the main block section, wherein the indentation is complimentary in shape with respect to the protrusion.
