(...) Thanks, Bill! You wouldn't believe what a pain it is to add minifig heads to a structure when you're out of 1x2 plates with center studs in black. I had to make use of the hollow studs in 1x1 and 1x2 technic beams quite a bit. --Bram Bram (...) (23 years ago, 29-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.contests)

I found a door hinge that works pretty well, and looks reasonably clean while still being applicable in numerous situations, so I use it :) The only problem is that most of my hinges are the kind with the hollow studs.

(...) If you're referring to the lower arms of the Blok-Bot sets, I agree that they're of very limited utility. Not as limited as nearly the entire inventory of the Bionicle line, of course, but still somewhat limited. Dave! (23 years ago, 29-Oct-01, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.build.mecha)
