It's this time of year again where I've got a bunch of part naming issues:
- There are two official and a set of unofficial Technic Excavator Bucket parts.
The problem just is that the buckets' don't only work as excavator buckets;
front loaders, tractors and other vehicles can use them as well. Bricklink calls
them as Digget Buckets which wouldn't work here IMHO. Maybe just title them as
Technic Buckets?
- The twin parts "Technic Wing Front" and "Technic Wing Back" (2743.dat and
2744.dat) could be, IMHO, renamed into "Technic Brick 1 x 4 with Two Holes and
Slope" and "Technic Brick 1 x 6 with Three Holes and Slope", respectively.
- The double-bent beam 32009.dat has got wrong dimensions in title. Is "Technic
Beam 3 x 3.8 x 7 Liftarm Bent 45 Double", should be "Technic Beam 9 x 5
Liftarm Bent 45 Double". However, 6629.dat and 32271.dat have a similar issue as
32009.dat, but the resulting title would be even worse IMHO.
- 2905.dat needs to be renamed - the current naming throws it at the beginning
of the Technic parts list! It is "Technic 5 x 3 x 0.5 Liftarm Triangle",
clearly missing the Beam in the name. Also it should be " 3 x 5", not the other
way around.
- Maybe rename 4265a.dat into "Technic Bush 0.5 with Teeth", 4265b.dat into
"Technic Bush 0.5 with Teeth and Reduced Axlehole" and 32123.dat into "Technic
Bush 0.5 with No Teeth"? Note also 1/2 -> 0.5 for consistency.
- 744.dat from "Technic Gear 42 Tooth" into "Technic Gear 42 Large Tooth". Too
bad that part got a bad orientation :(
Additionally I once suggested a "Technic Ball Joint Connector", maybe "Technic
Ball Socket", subcategory. The idea is that:
61053.dat -> Technic Ball Joint Connector 5 with Rectangular Sockets
61054.dat, once done, would be: Technic Ball Joint Connector 7 with Rectangular
Sockets
47296.dat -> Technic Ball Joint Connector 5 with Circular Sockets
50898.dat -> Technic Ball Joint Connector 7 with Circular Sockets
32174.dat -> Technic Ball Joint Connector 3 with Single Circular Socket
61054.dat, once done, would be: Technic Ball Joint Connector 3 with Single
Rectangular Socket
or something similar.
Opinions?
