Hello fellow Schleimers, while working on my six-wide Ford F-150 (1 stud to 1 foot scale, seen here) I discovered a SNOT technique that I wound up not using...mainly because I’m not sure how “pure” it is. It uses a tiny piece of tubing:

So, what’s the verdict? Is cutting pneumatic tubing valid? Or does this make me evil?

(...) I'll go with "C", it's valid but you're evil anyway... But I'm not very pure, I already cut flex system tubing. (21 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

(...) That's really cool, similar to this method: (URL) as long as everything LEGO made neither you nor your mom are evil or unpure. -Orion (21 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.schleim)

(...) <snip> (...) Yeah, go for it! If you look around in .trains and .technic you'll find lots of MOCs with "non-standard" lengths of tubing. In fact, Lego fully condones the cutting of tubing (at least the pneumatic kind), as kits are supplied (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

(...) That's brilliant. Cutting pneumatic tubing is a 'pure' method IMO. Various lengths of tubing are one of the more usefull parts in fact, but this never occured to me. Well done. They'd also fit inside the tubes of 2+ wide plates wouldn't they? (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
