   The same trick works for any length plate. You just need wall or plate hinges at each end to hold the diagonal in place.

For the sake of completeness, it’s worth to mention this technique not only works for any length, but also for any width of plate/brick. In other words, you’re able to slant ? x 2, ? x 4 and so on by mirroring along the diagonal as well, using an equally larger parallel ofsett.

Indeed. Wider bricks/plates do result in a correspondingly larger gap though.

...that can be filled adequately by tiles or plates + tiles attached snotwise.

(Oops, I just realised I’ve put this thread back on-topic, because up until now the discussion was most about studs on top techniques. :-)

With friendly greetings, M, Moolhuysen.

Yes, but the studs were out of aschlignment. And we can talk about scheep if we want to...

Anyway, the new 1x1 ‘cheeser’ slopes would be best to pad the gap, if it was the right size.

:-) scheep...? schafe! (or “schapen” in my native language)

That is a pretty good idea, does someone know any example of someone using this already?

With friendly greetings, M, Moolhuysen.

Mark Stafford had this Asimov-style ship



at LegoWorld that uses cheesers near the front to close the gap between the two wedges.
