Speaking of purism, I have another question along those
lines (and one that you can probably answer better than
anyone else, Craig).
So how much of a faux pas is it to modify plates, etc. for
your structures? I can see it for minifig character development,
but there are some parts that I "need" and can modify pretty
easily.
For example, to create the stopping mechanism for the
gearbox in my gate, I wanted to plug a 1x2 plate with the
horizontal side rod (#30236) into a 1x2 hinge base (#3937).
Unfortunately, the hinge base has a little nub that interferes
with the the middle of the side rod, so I'd like to carve that
out (actually, I think I'd take the middle of the rod out of #30236
instead).
The obvious disadvantage is that this is a one-of-a-kind, so
only I can build it. On the other hand, it's cool. :)
Comments?
Chris
