Congratulations, you win...um, you win...well, you don’t win anything, actually, but that pretty efficiently takes care of most of this discussion (though it would probably look better in 2x8 bricks). I’d thought about using pins to do the same thing, but the ridge around the middle would prevent the bricks from pushing completely together. I never even considered using axles...

Anyways, if you don’t have the old variety, one way to get around it would be to put in a section of 2x8 TECHNIC plates and stick longer axles through the holes in the middle.
