I would suggest the Bar category since we are trying to avoid theme-based
categories.  In a previous thread there were I think several people who
advocated the "Bar" category for this.

Bar  1 x  8 w/ brick 1  x  2 rounded top     or just,
Bar  1 x  8 space cannon

Yes, let's put it into the Bar catagory.  How about this for a name:
Bar  1 x  8 w/ rounded end bricks     OR
Bar  1 x  8 w/ End Bricks, rounded

Remember, it is not always a cannon, nor is it always in space.

Yikes!

I was just trying to put the update together, and realized that we did not • have
a suitable name for the cannon:
30359.DAT     Space Star Wars Cannon

I would _prefer_ that we not leave it as-is.  Come on people, where to put • it?
What do you think its major features are?
Bar  something?
Brick something?

-- Terry K --

ahhhhhhh.?

antenna 8 x  1  horizontal with studded tip?
antenna 8 x  1  horizontal (sounds good till here)

''             ''             with peghole at end?
                              with ?

Oooo.  Very creative idea.  It *does* look more like an antenna than
anything else.  I like this, I just wonder if people will be able to find
it in the 'antenna' category.  Then again, no matter where it goes, people
are going to have trouble finding it.

I like it plain:

Antenna  8 x  1 Horizontal

Otherwise, the Space category is probably the best bet.
