Dear Lego, Why do you torture Technic enthusiasts? First, we get a preview of three very cool looking Technic sets (8421, 8420, and 8416), but for some reason the release dates of these sets are clustered together in the 4th quarter of 2005. Then, (...) (20 years ago, 22-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.technic)

(...) are (...) Good question! It's because on the studless beams the holes are right next to each other, whereas on the studded beams the holes have a much larger space in-between. Dave S. (20 years ago, 17-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Tis true. What I was trying to say (I thought I did tho) was that the studless beams are typically odd 'lengths'. Since the holes are (presumably) between the (imaginary) studs, then there would be an even number of holes. In most Technic (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Um, OK, I gota ask - if it's studless, how can you tell where the studs are to see if the holes align with them? And on a more serious note, the few "hybrid" pieces I have that are "mostly" studless *do* have the holes inbetween the studs. (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Many of the studless Technic beams and most of the ZNAP beams are odd lengths. I know this is not what you were asking for, but interesting none the less. Ray (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)
