erector
One who raises
An erector is something that erects—raises, builds, or makes upright.
The term appears most often in anatomy, where erector muscles straighten body parts: the erector spinae runs along the spine and keeps the back upright.
In physiology, erector refers to structures involved in erection, including of the penis.
An erector set is a construction toy with metal beams and screws.
