  Re: need to make a 15 degree angle
 
(...) Have you tried starting with the technic 3 blade liftarm (44734) (URL) single 44734 gives you 3 120 degree angles. By combining four of them, I think you can get down to 12 30 degree angles. If you could combine that with 45 degrees and get (...) (16 years ago, 26-Dec-08, to lugnet.parts)
