Those 2-bend angle beams would, IMHO, be a LOT more useful if they were
shortened so that one half of it is an exact mirror image of the other half.

It'd make a great-looking grader blade, as it is it'd be a bit tall on one
side, making the curve for the blade in completely the wrong place - perhaps
something can be done with it though.  Could also do with a little more
length on the short end.

The list of the worst parts must include the Technic motorcycle steering
boss. A 2x2 brick with a protruding arm with the end cranked at an • angle.
How could you EVER find a use for it. It's also used on the lift of the • 8462
breakdown truck.

I dont think this piece is crap for what its intended for, making • motorcycles.

Also studless beams with 2 bends, corrugated tubing, I'm sure theirs • more!

The 2 bend angle beam is bad definatly. The corrugated tubing is bad but • only in
the longer lengths.
The small pieces (especially in the silver) can be good for things like
"springs" for the front forks of a bike.
