ABT (Advanced Building Techniques) are widely used. Everyone knows for instance the use of a jumper plate to achieve a half stud offset (AZMEP)



Another one consist in stacking 1xn parts on hollow stud in a tube to hollow stud connection.



The jumper plate IS a hollow stud part. What if we combine these two techniques? You achieve an incredible one-stud offsetand get great advantages :


  1. only two plates thick,
  2. less clutch power for immediate disassembling
  3. limited jumper plate colour availability for increased building challenge
and the most amazing is that this technique has
  1. No SNOT side effects.
To conclude I encourage you to share your favorite NUTs (New Useless Technique) in reply to this post

Schleim well,

(...) Which contradicts your claim of uselessness for the following reasons: less clutch power is sometimes desirable - I have used this exact construction in a GBC module to allow easy removal of a part for maintenance. The clutch is even less than (...) (15 years ago, 1-Jul-09, to lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
