I have a lot of two stud wide arches which I want to be rid of. I don't believe they were ever used in castle sets, or any "serious" sets only in free style boxes and the like. Am I right ???? Michael Pratt (25 years ago, 11-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) If you mean 1x2 arches with plate (looks like <part:6005 this> but smaller) then no way! They are used in many town and paradisa sets, and can be used in very cool ways in castle, and prolly space too. However, if you still want to get rid of (...)
