I do.  Orion does.  Heck, Kevin's pretty much the poster-child for what can be
accomplished with stud-free construction.

Hey, this is a my clumsy pidgin, sorry, I'll try to reiterate ;-)

I just wanted to say that most people admit that studless beams may be
useful sometimes and that people are usually not against studless beams,
but against studless sets. For example I'm against studless sets = I
don't buy them (no matter if it's Znap, Bionicle or 'new' Technic).

And I don't buy Harry Potter or Spiderman sets ... oh wait ... I did buy a
Hogwarts Express ... but only to get a large supply of 2x2 spoked wheels for my
crane pulleys :)

Everyone has their preference, I think there are many technic builders that
don't buy a lot of that "subtheme of technic" called bionicle, I think it's just
as valid to not want to buy studless sets (could be considered a subtheme of
technic too?) if that is your preference. In fact I like the idea - all the more
for those of us that do buy them!!
