Challenge —Will Hess
I'm thinking of a modern (minifig era) Lego element that cannot be attached to any other Lego element. Sure, there might be more than one but I wonder how long it will take for someone to guess mine :-) I'll post my answer tomorrow if nobody guesses (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

		(...) I'd say that attached means that the parts in question won't separate without normal force and that neither of them are damaged in the process. Will Lego Beach Fire and Rescue: www.crosswinds.net/~hokie Bricksburg Depot: (URL) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

			Re: Challenge —Jeff Johnston
			(...) Under that definition, I'd have to say that coins can indeed be 'attached' - if you use two of 'em, a minifig can hold them in his hand just as securely as any tool or weapon. J (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

				Re: Challenge —Frank Filz
				(...) Well, you didn't say "building" element. It actually is somewhat difficult to come up with a simple definition of those items which would be allowed in a "pure" construction, and even harder to come up with a simple term for it. (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

				Re: Challenge —Frank Filz
				(...) Yes, and the spacing of the holes in the net matches the stud spacing, so it is clearly designed to interface with elements with studs. (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)
