This is a new part from the Jack Stone line. It has a part number on the bottom,
# 30645. The speciman I have here is black (from 4610). You may have seen it in
the set images as a floor piece for the buildings.

It is 1 brick high.

Is is nominally 10 x 10, but the cornermost studs (on all four corners) overlap
with what appears to be a 2 x 2 brick shape with vertical grooves and a thin
vertical pin centered between the four studs. If you put a normal 2 x 2 brick on
it, the  pin will fit neatly into the tube on the bottom of the 2 x 2. So,
depending on your perspective, this is either a 10 x 10 brick with corner
extensions, or a 12 x 12 brick with 1 x 8 missing on each of the four sides.

On two of the 8-wide faces, there are three technic pin holes (centered).

Peeron and brickbay have no entry for this part as of yet.

What shall we name it ?

Hmm....

Brick 10 x 10 with Corner Extensions
Brick 10 x 10 with Corner Support Extensions
Brick 12 x 12 without Sides
Jack Stone BaseBrick 10 x 10

Whichever dimension (10x10 or 12x12) is used in the part, the *other*
dimension should be recorded on a KEYWORDS entry.

And while we/you are thinking about this, the 2 x 2 x 8 column piece (p/n 30646)
also needs a name. It has a vertical groove on all four sides and has internal
structure on two of four sides.

Support  2 x  2 x  8 Pillar

Probably should come up with some name for the 2x2 stud with pin
connector, and use that on all parts with that connector.

(...) That pin in the middle, appears to add significantly to avoid unintentional disconnect. The tallness of the pillar with respect to the shortness of a typical stud would cause it to be much less stable without the pin. The Jack Stone parts (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
